Description
Many of you have heard of him.For years, children have been scared into eating their vegetables, doing their homework, and treating their little brothers better by way of terrifying tales of the Bushman, a Fisherman's Wharf native that has paved his way to fame by scaring the hell out of young children and the elderly alike.
What he does is he holds up a bush, one that definitely does not belong in the middle of an urban sidewalk. And yet, nobody notices. I know from firsthand experience, because he scared the hell out of me
. What gives him away is the large crowd of people taking photos of the mysterious bush, and the look of anticipation on the kids opposite you the moment before you hear the Bushman's low grumble.More from the series next week... including more on my personal interaction with him, and what I thought about him. Suffice it to say, he measures very high on my cool-scale. This is probably my last post for now!
More pics & info about him here, for now... these are not done by me:

Oh shit! It's the Bushman! If you live in San Francisco, it's a must see attraction to watch the Bushman in action. Unfornately, I think this was the original Bushman, and he's no longer scaring people. There is someone else now doing it.

I really like the focus in this shot - it reminds me of a movie still or something. I love the story to go with it. I have never heard of anything like this before. Very interesting!
