Man dresses up like wife in failed attempt to receive a loan
A man was arrested in Japan earlier this week for dressing up like his wife and trying to take out a loan in her name. He had claimed that that difference between his appearance and the photo of his wife on her id card was because of failed plastic surgery.
Police, apparently considering the arrest to be important, went through the trouble of confiscating the clothing he wore and putting it on a mannequin. As cool as it was, it wasn’t enough for TBS and ATV news, who put their artists to work:
TBS prepared some illustrations reenacting the event, while ATV created the cross-dresser using primitive 3D computer graphics.
