    Man dressed as Darth Vader attacked Jedis
    Stuff.co.nz | Wednesday, 14 May 2008

    A man has received a suspended sentence for assaulting the founders of Britain's first Jedi church while dressed as Darth Vader.

    Wearing a garbage bag as a cape to complete his Star Wars-themed costume, Arwel Wynne Hughes used a metal crutch to hit Barney Jones, also known as Master Jonba Hehol, on the head, the Associated Press reported.

    Mr Hughes, 27, also attacked Jones' cousin Michael Jones, known as Master Mormi Hehol, and wounded him in the thigh, a British court was told.

    Alcohol was a likely factor behind the assault, since Hughes claimed he couldn't remember what happened because he had consumed most of 10 litre box of wine before.

    The incident was caught on a video camera, which the two Jedi masters had set up to film themselves in a light sabre battle.

    "Darth Vader! Jedis!" Hughes yelled as he came on to the scene.

    Hughes was given a suspended sentence of two months in jail and a £260 fine.

    Jones' Church of Jediism, a philosophy gleaned from the popular Star Wars movies, was set up last year and has about 30 members.

    Just picture it:

    A bunch of fat nerds in white robes sitting down kneeling at a stuffed Yoda. Then a drunk guy in a 10 dollar Darth Vader mask runs in with a trash bag around his neck and a crutch in his hand.

    "I'm DARTH VADER, b****ES!!!"

    Then he starts whacking them. That's great stuff.

    Not what I was hoping it would be if this is the actual video. The guys reaction is pretty funny.

    "that's really quite painful"

    Looks like Vader's alcoholism is what really led to the downfall of the Empire. This sounds like a Family Guy cutscene.

    Yeah that video is really terrible. It sounds much better in writing.

    Firecat and Cannonball, please remove that awful video so the people that haven't seen it can still enjoy.

    Thank you.

    Do they really believe in the force? Or is their religion more tongue in cheek ala the Chruch of Satan?

    I imagine a bunch of guys meditating all day and doing things not-magic.
