A burglar leaped out of a first floor window after being disturbed by a man dressed as the Norse god Thor.

Torvald Alexander was still wearing a red cape and the thunder god's silver-winged helmet and breastplate after a New Year's Eve fancy dress party when he discovered the man rummaging through drawers in the front room of his home in Inverleith, Edinburgh.

Alexander, a 6ft builder who had made his costume out of tin foil, frightened the intruder by charging at him.

He said he had acted instinctively to chase the intruder away, and believed his costume may have added impact. "As soon as he saw me his eyes went wide with terror," he said. "He looked like he had had a few drinks and decided to do a late-night break-in, but he hadn't counted on the God of Thunder living here.

"We were both startled but then the instant reaction was that I ran at him and he just jumped straight out of the window. I think I would be quite scared if someone looking almost like a gladiator ran at them.

"He might have thought the property was empty. He probably would not have expected to meet a strong builder, especially dressed in tinfoil and silver."

He added: "It took ages making the cape, helmet and breast plate, and I must admit it was a bit chilly walking home, but when I saw that guy I just went mad and charged, my cape flying behind me."

Nothing was stolen but the intruder left behind his shoes and the garden fork he used to break in. A pitched roof outside the window broke his fall and he made his escape.

Alexander, whose name has Norwegian roots, was inspired to dress as Thor by the Marvel comics series. The Norse believed that Thor rode through the heavens during thunderstorms on his chariot, which was pulled by two goats.

Lothian and Borders police said yesterday they had not received a report of the incident.

especially hard at the bit about the shoes.

It's things like this that make life bearable.

Now all we need is a  GTVA ship called the Thor (big shiny ship with fake weapons) and we can FRED this.  I can see it now the Sath is bearing down on an unexpecting Collie.  Just as it's almost in range  the Thor shows up and the Sath jumps out dropping a  pair of Cains out of it's hanger.

Well, we already have the Mjolnir, so Thor could be a mobile delivery system for them

EDIT: cool story, I just wanted to see if blank posting works

Spoiler:

It does, you just need a special character

This reminds me of the story about the nerd who went charging into his neighbors apartment with a cavalry saber because he thought a woman was being raped when actually the guy just had his porn too loud.

You know, I can't read this without thinking of a certain episode of 'Only Fools and Horses'.

My money's on the Loki. Sorry, but it's got the Loki completely out-ranged, depending on the armament.

I would have called it Hellbringer, but I would not have been able to do the "Loki vs Loki" thing.
