This Man Is A Villain For Hire

Malaysian man Shazali Sulaiman offers a strange, controversial service: He poses as a villain to harass people, just so their partners can save the day. This “villain for hire” allows clients to show off how “masculine” they are. He had the idea when someone told him that his long hair and clothing made him look like a “gang member.” Clients set up a time and place for Sulaiman to pick on someone. He charges about $22 dollars, but clients have to cover travel costs. “When the boyfriend went to the bathroom, I pretended to ‘harass’ his girlfriend. When he came back, he confronted me like a hero,” he said of a recent encounter. (Oddity Central)
