Jerk Pees On Ferrari, The Internet Erupts
So some drunk Canadian teenager peed on a Ferrari. Usually that wouldn't merit coverage — we're sure 90% of the world's Ferraris have been urinated on by inebriated teenagers at some point in time. But this one involved urination caught on video, posted on Flickr, then YouTube, and has received such an outrageous response on message boards like FerrariChat that local police have launched an investigation not only into the teen's actions, but also to protect him from what they see as a real chance of violent revenge from forum fan-boys.


The clip shows "Gibby," obviously inebriated, releasing a pretty pathetic stream of urine onto the side of a 360 Spyder, apparently left overnight in a mall parking lot after its owner lost his keys. Upon discovering the video, members of FerrariChat were able to locate the culprit's Facebook page and subsequently his full name, contact information and contact details for his employer, who they've since harassed with late night phone calls. Forum members now intend to "show up" at a wedding Gibby is supposedly attending.

Speaking to the St. Catherine Standard, a spokeswoman for the Niagara Regional Police called the footage, "a gift-wrapped investigation." The NRP is now attempting to locate the boy in order to charge him with urinating in public.

Various threats of revenge have been made against Gibby (unfortunately not the Butthole Surfer's singer) by members of FerrariChat and in the clip's comments on YouTube. Not helped by Flickr photos that show the teen in Joey Carrera-style outfits and poses, those comments tend toward the elitist, suggesting that by being unable to afford a Ferrari, Gibby is somehow worth less to society.

The entire thing is so ridiculous that it's reduced our opinion of the kind of people that own Ferraris to an all time low (reduced from track-suited Sopranos wannabes to internet dweebs). That a group of enthusiasts is so unsure of themselves that they act out by trying to harm some idiot teenager is just pathetic. And as true Ferrari cognoscenti know, the 360 deserves to get peed on anyways.
I've read many of these vengeful forum threads where someone is a moron to someone else and their car. The community unites and finds out all about the moron and serves lynchmob style justice electronic style.

He should be glad it wasn't my car or I'd be out hunting his ass down. Compared to my wrath, Mad Dog the Bounty Hunter would be like Mother Teresa. That scum shithead has no respect for other people's property...I'd feel this way even if it was a Ford...I think.

Sounds like these guys need to relax a bit. It’s nothing a trip through the carwash won’t fix.

That kid is an ass though. Needs to learn respect for other people’s things.

Maybe if you own a Ferrari you wont be a dipshit by leaving it in a public parking lot for 4 nights.

Yea the kid was an idiot, but I say the moron who owns it is lucky that is all that happened to it.

I am not blaming the guy with the Ferrari, but you can't seriously expect him to have left it there for 4 nights and not have had anything happen to it.

I live in a fairly nice and safe city, and if you leave ANY vehicle in a parking lot over night then you pretty much expect shit to happen to it.

If a Ferrari was left in a parking lot here it would be gone, or scratched to shit in no time

i agree that the kid is an ass, and has no respect, like every other freakin other teen in america today it seems.

anyway, at the same time i don't see it as any worse than pissing on a chevy lumina or the side of my house or the tree in my yard. if he didn't piss on the interior or on the door handle, then he's just a douche-bag, he didn't do any harm.

Seriously it's a car, he took a piss on it and that makes him a moron. So?

I agree with others, I don't see this any different then pissing on any other type of personal property.

i agree. It's a car. And to top it off, it's a Ferrari. Big woop. I thought that the paint etc on any vehicle, particularly high end vehicles would more than withstand a little bit of acid raining down on it.

Is it the lack of respect of the gesture? *yawn* It's only a Ferrari, Not a Toyota or something really practical.

I hope these fuckers have guards to make sure that none of those smartallecky birds, cats, dogs, squirrels, and other varmits urinate or shit on their cars. Fucking animals!

I'd be pissed if some kids pissed on my car - especially the door handle or something - but seriously...put it in perspective. Not really a big deal.

Also, this just in - kids will be kids, and they will do stupid shit from time to time, especially when intoxicated. I'm sure the Ferrarifags have never done such, nor would they ever. After all, they own Ferraris!

If guys like these would spend as much time, effort, and money on bettering their communities as they do on fetishizing their automobiles, the world would be on a collision course with a utopia. There are fewer (if any) drunk Canadian teenagers in utopian societies.

A Ferrari is not a thing of beauty; it is an abomination.

Bah, whatever. If that video hadn't been posted, the owner would've had no idea that his car was pissed on.

Maybe next time he'll leave a spare set of keys in his wallet.

Just keep in mind... that's just the pee you see. There are a lot of dogs and such in the world, and they are not being video taped! Maybe we should have 24 hr video surveillance to go with our car alarms that do nothing....

And yeah, there's an idiot who owns an orange ferrari on my street. They PARK IT ON THE STREET. That's just dumb... you can afford that car, but you can't afford off street parking?

Ah, idiots. All around.

Well, I've gotta admit it, I too have been drunk out in the street, and I too have pissed on a car or two. They certainly weren't Ferraris, but still. I do feel kind of bad about it. But people do way worse thing, like scratching off a car's paintjob, kicking cars, somebody I once knew pretty much drop kicked a windshield. So a lit of bit of urine (which is upwards of 90% water) on a car is really not that bad. (And if there are stray dogs/animals in your town it probably happens anyway).

Yeah, the kid is an idiot but he's drunk and we were all drunk, young and stupid once. The Ferrari owner is also an idiot. If I can afford that car and I lost my keys, I could afford to get it towed home or at least a more secure spot...come on now. Lastly, it's only piss.

Now, if he keyed the car and they video taped it, I'm all for him getting his ass kicked. I don't care if your car is a Ferrari, Ford or a fucking Chevette, no one should be keying your car. No ifs, ands or buts about it.

i took my volvo to a party in the country about 10 years ago. i didn´t know that people were using my car as a urinal (volvos are not liked back in au.) i took some people on a alcohol-run and backing down a long driveway my back window fogged up and i drove off the road into a ditch and the same people who had pissed on my car now had to pu their hands in the same place to push my car out. i only found out later which to me made the story so much better
