I know, this is a week old at least, but I couldn't resist it.
After Putin the Hunter, Putin the topless salmon fisherman, and Vladimir "Rocketman" Putin, here comes Let's learn Judo with Vladimir Putin!.
It's pretty neat. Here's a little clip of the man himself, pulling some moves on guys twice his size. If you don't look too closely, you can almost not see his adversaries deliberatly falling over themselves.
So, what's the story behind all this display of machismo? My first interpretation of all this, was that Putin is gay. Clearly.
But maybe he's just in desperate need of showing his alpha-maleness. What with being relegated to Prime Minister and stuff. And what do you know, here's Putin showing off his pet tiger puppy. "She likes to eat meat", was what he told the journalists gather there. Rawr!
So what next for Mr Muscle? Here a few of my suggestions for his upcoming DVDs, feel free to add yours:
Let's Wrestle a Bear with Vladimir Putin!: Vladimir goes hunting topless in Siberia in mid-winter, and stumbles upon a Grizzlie bear, which he wrestles to the ground before sodomising it. Extra on the DVD include dubbing in German.
Let's invade Georgia with Vladimir Putin!: Vladimir Putin goes to Georgia for a holiday, takes his sirt-off, and conquers the place. The locals are so happy they decide to learn Judo with Vladimir Putin, topless.
Let's Crash Wall Street with Vladimir Putin!: Vladimir Putin goes to the New-York for a holiday, but gets lost on Wall Street. He gets so angry that he crunches the credit, with his bare hands, and chaos ensues. Extras include include cranium arm-wrestling between Vladimir Putin and Henry Paulson.
Let's Vladimir Putin with Vladimir Putin!: Vladimir Putin stares at himself in the mirror in this 3-hour long DVD. Extras include Vladimir staring at himself in the bathroom mirror, and in the elevator mirror.
