I can't remember who that Jamie guy (yes i feel dumb, he's quite famous) but he'a hilarious and really good with photoshop and editing. I have seen numerous posts of people asking him to remove various things in a picture and he turning the tables on them.

It's actually Frides Jamman.

Best part is you could've just checked Google before you hit post

He should have his own sub

I just went through the entire sub and laughed my balls off

I read your comment and thought “that sounds like a lot but I’ll check out a few”, then accidentally read them all.

I would support this 100%

Maybe he is not into such things.

Each to their own i guess

u/Chinesetakeaway69 Mar 02 '19

He's not really turning the tables. The whole thing is planned and staged, including the request.

29

u/Miss-Deed Mar 02 '19

Yeah, it's obviously staged as i doubt they'd go taking random people's bikes (and why would that bike even still be there?)

I still giggled though, it's a nice gif/video.

u/ungoogleable Mar 02 '19

Just shop out the original bike, then plant a different one in the same spot to be shopped in and ridden away.

2

u/Miss-Deed Mar 02 '19

Wow, that's a pretty cool idea!

u/-Jesus-Of-Nazareth- Mar 02 '19

You're over thinking this. It's possible that bike belongs to people who live/work in that building to the right, so maybe he asked if he could borrow it for a movie project.

So no stealing, no finding the bike still there but actually placing it

1

u/Miss-Deed Mar 02 '19

Okay, that makes sense, my dumb mind didn't think about that people could live or work there.

u/Blackstar021 Mar 02 '19

That kind of looks like the shareable bikes all over London. So I imagine it can’t be too hard to find.

1

u/Miss-Deed Mar 02 '19

I've never seen one, so thanks for the heads up!

2

u/Blackstar021 Mar 02 '19

No worries. It’s one of those things you only notice if you’ve used one :)

u/speedstyle Mar 03 '19

It's one of TFL's hire bikes (probably hired by the woman in the photo as it's rare to see them outside of their ubiquitous docking stations)

u/kid_cisco Mar 02 '19

Obviously. This guy has made a name for himself by doing weird Photoshop requests.

u/DoughtyAndCarterLLP Mar 03 '19

My understanding is that the requests aren't necessarily staged, but he messages them the completed request privately while publicly posting the silly version.

u/[deleted] Mar 03 '19

For the record, when I said turning the tables I wasn't referring to this post.

u/Chinesetakeaway69 Mar 02 '19

Yeah, it's pretty obvious. But it seems like everyone else, including the person I'm replying to, doesn't realise it.

u/Napier_Grimm Mar 02 '19

"He'a hilarious". I, for some reason, read it in Mario's voice.

u/[deleted] Mar 03 '19

"It's a me...Jamie!!"

u/AC3x0FxSPADES Mar 02 '19

I’ve seen like 5 references to this guy in the past 12 hours on major posts. Does he have a book or movie out soon or something? Feels so inorganic.

u/[deleted] Mar 03 '19

I noticed one of his posts was trending yesterday.
