By John Coyle

You know how it is. One moment you’re rolling in a hotas in stolenSkyline, the next minute, you’re an internet sensation, and everyone is mocking your messed up hand while cheering your arrest. Well, maybe you know how that is if you’re Lobster Boy, because it is a pretty specific situation. Anyway, since the eBay auction for his now-famous hathigh bid at press time: $260is almost over, we thought we’d post this video which chronicles the rise and fall of Lobster Boy. If you’re not familiar with all the twists and turns of this saga, make sure to read Rob’s initial post, otherwise, just watch the video below. And thanks Lobster Boy, you made our week. Have fun in jail!

Skyline GT-R Lobster Claw Thief's Yankees Cap on eBay
By Rob Einaudi
Editor-in-Chief
This is the car forum story of the year, if not the decade. A guy missing two fingers steals a 1991 GT-R off a Calgary car lot, the car salesman posts about the theft on Beyond.ca, and within hours the forum members track down the thief, box the car in at his house, and get some good video as the cops haul the guy off to jail. And now, to add insult to injury, the thief’s hat, which was found in the recovered Skyline, is up on eBay. Ain’t the internet great?
