WITH YOU."
AND HE SAID, "OKAY."
AND THAT'S HOW I GOT STARTED.
Mr. Xtreme:
ANY DAY JOB I'VE EVER HAD,
I'VE NEVER LIKED.
JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE.
WHEN I'M NOT DOING THIS,
I'M A TEACHER.
I'M A STAY-AT-HOME DAD.
I HAVE TWO KIDS.
THERE'S FOUR OF US
THAT ARE TATTOO ARTISTS
AND ALSO SUPERHEROES.
IS A SECURITY GUARD.
I HAVE A LOT OF TRAINING.
I'M A MARTIAL ARTS INSTRUCTOR.
THE INGREDIENTS TO BE
A REAL-LIFE SUPERHERO
REALLY VARY,
'CAUSE EVERYBODY'S LOOKING
TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
YOU KNOW, A CRIME FIGHTER
OR YOU'RE LOOKING
I THINK YOU HAVE TO BE
IN SHAPE.
MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING.
YOU CAN'T JUST
THROW ON A MASK:
AND GO OUT AND THINK
YOU'RE GONNA DO SOMETHING.
YOU'RE GONNA
GET YOURSELF KILLED.
IN GOOD SHAPE,
AND, YOU KNOW,
JUST KEEP MYSELF SAFE
IF I'M GOING TO BE
ON THE STREETS.
I'VE BEEN OUT THERE
QUITE A FEW TIMES,
GOING UP AGAINST THE DEALERS
IN WASHINGTON SQUARE PARK.
THERE'S TIMES WHERE
THEY WOULD GET IN MY FACE
AND THREATEN ME.
YOU KNOW, THERE'S A TIME
A GUY FLASHED A GUN AT US.
BUT THE THING IS
I'VE NEVER BACKED DOWN
HAVE NEVER BACKED DOWN.
AND WE'VE ALWAYS MANAGED
TO BE ON TOP OF THAT.
SO THEY WERE:
DEFINITELY SELLING.
The Cameraman:
I STARTED OFF JUST KIND OF
FILMING THE MOVEMENT,
'CAUSE THERE WAS JUST
THAT DREW ME TO IT.
BUT EVENTUALLY I GOT
SUCKED INTO THE WORLD.
AND, YOU KNOW,
BEFORE I KNEW IT,
I FOUND MYSELF:
GOING ON:
CRIME-FIGHTING PATROLS
WITH DARK GUARDIAN
AS THE CAMERAMAN,
SHOOTING HIS PATROLS.
Dark Guardian:
THERE WAS ACTUALLY A TIME
OF US WENT OUT.
IT WAS A BIG BUSINESS DAY
FOR THE DEALERS.
WE WENT OUT THERE
TO KICK THEM OUT.
WE'RE HERE 'CAUSE
WE'RE NOT GONNA TOLERATE
DRUGS IN THE PARK
ANYMORE.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO
STAND FOR IT.
IT GOES ON:
AND ON AND ON:
AND NOBODY DOES NOTHING
OR SAYS ANYTHING.
IT'S TIME
SOMEBODY STOOD UP.
Dark Guardian:
THEY DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE.
AND WE RUINED THEIR
NIGHT OF BUSINESS.
IF YOU'RE SELLING
ANYTHING,
YOU KNOW YOU AIN'T GONNA BE
SELLING NOTHING RIGHT NOW.
SO NOBODY'S GONNA
BE COMING OVER HERE.
I'M LETTING Y'ALL KNOW THAT.
IT'S GONNA BE
A BAD NIGHT OF SELLING.
Dark Guardian:
AN ESSENTIAL PART
OF WORKING THE PARKS.
I USUALLY SEND HIM IN
TO GET AUDIO OF THE DEALERS,
SO I KNOW EXACTLY
WHO'S SELLING,
HAVE SOME EVIDENCE
OF WHAT'S GOING ON.
HE'S GOT A GIANT PAIR
OF BALLS,
BECAUSE HE'S
RIGHT THERE WITH ME
HOLDING THAT CAMERA.
FIRST OF ALL,
THERE'S POLICE RIGHT THERE.
Dark Guardian:
THE POLICE-- THEY'VE ACTUALLY
PICKED ME UP BEFORE.
WHO ARE YOU?
WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
I'M DARK GUARDIAN.
( laughs )
OKAY.
THEY WERE ALL JUST,
"HEY, WE APPRECIATE YOU
TRYING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE,
BUT WE DON'T WANT
Lieutenant Brown:
REAL-LIFE SUPERHEROES--
THEY'RE NOT TRAINED.
THEY DON'T HAVE THE TACTICS
AND THE EQUIPMENT.
THEY DON'T HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE
OF LAW, OR CASE LAW.
THEY DON'T HAVE
PROTOCOLS AND PROCEDURES,
GUIDELINES,
THE WAY THAT:
THE POLICE OFFICERS DO
CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS
ARE PROTECTED.
I CONSIDER MYSELF
TO BE A PROTECTOR.
AND I WORK:
WITHIN THE LAWS.
I WORK WITHIN:
THE SYSTEMS.
I DON'T GO OUT THERE
AND TRY TO HARASS PEOPLE.
I DON'T GO OUT THERE
TO TRY TO VIOLATE THEIR
CIVIL RIGHTS.
I DON'T ACT AS THE JUDGE,
JURY AND EXECUTIONER.
MY MAIN FOCUS:
IS TO RAISE AWARENESS,
TO BE OUT THERE,
TO BE A VISUAL DETERRENT
TO PREVENT VIOLENT CRIME.
EVERY DAY:
AND I BECOME:
MR. XTREME,
I'M VERY AFRAID WHEN I GO
THE SHIFT THAT:
IT COULD VERY WELL BE
MY LAST SHIFT.
I MEAN, ANY OF US
CAN BE SHOT, STABBED,
RAT PACKED, RUN OVER
AND SO FORTH.
LATELY I'VE BEEN
TEAMING UP:
WITH VIGILANTE SPIDER.
MY NAME IS:
THE VIGILANTE SPIDER.
I STARTED OUT:
IN LAS VEGAS, NEVADA.
I NOW PATROL:
MOST OF NORTH COUNTY.
JUST LIKE:
ANY OTHER DAY,
YOU WALK DOWNSTAIRS,
YOU HAVE BREAKFAST,
YOU SAY HELLO:
TO YOUR GIRLFRIEND,
YOU GO TO WORK,
YOU SAY HI:
TO YOUR FRIENDS AT WORK.
AND THEN YOU GO HOME
AFTER ALL:
THE MONOTONY IS DONE,
AND YOU SLEEP.
( laughs )
Man:
SO YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?
EH, I WAS JUST
METAPHORICALLY SPEAKING.
YOU KNOW, IF REGULAR PEOPLE
CAN DO THIS, WHY CAN'T I?
PEOPLE LIKE BATMAN.
HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY POWERS,
YET HE'S PART
OF THE JUSTICE LEAGUE.
SO I THOUGHT TO MYSELF,
"HEY, WELL, I'LL JUST
GO DRESS UP:
AND STALK AROUND MY CITY
AND I'VE BEEN DOING THAT
( siren whoops )
NOW WE HAVE P.D.
ROLLING UP ON US, SO...
- SO YOU ALREADY TALKED
TO ALL MY PARTNERS, RIGHT?
- YEAH YEAH.
DO YOU HAVE ANY I.D. ON YOU?
- YES, SIR, I DO.
- YEAH, NO PROBLEM.
- NOT A PROBLEM.
Mr. Xtreme:
I DEFINITELY WOULD
LIKE TO HAVE:
A WORKING RELATIONSHIP
WITH THE POLICE.
TRYING TO TAKE A MORE
PROACTIVE APPROACH.
I SHOWED UP:
AT THE POLICE STATION.
BUT THAT JUST DIDN'T
PAN OUT TOO WELL
JUST BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES
OR THEY WOULD:
JUST FLIP OUT:
TAKE OFF MY COSTUME,
TAKE OFF MY MASK.
SO NOW,
MOST OF THE TIME,
TO APPROACH ME.
VIGILANTE SPIDER,
DO SOMETHING.
UM...
( camera shutter clicks )
OKAY, THAT WORKS.
Mr. Xtreme:
I GET ASKED THAT
QUESTION A LOT,
OF WHY I DON'T CHOOSE
REGULAR LAW ENFORCEMENT.
ME PERSONALLY--
I SIMPLY DON'T WANT
TO BE A COP.
I DON'T WANT TO JUST
DO THIS AS A JOB
AND HAVE TO REPORT
TO SOME CRAPPY-ASS BOSS.
FOR ME:
IT'S ABOUT BELIEFS.
YOU KNOW,
I AM A STUDENT:
OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE
AND POLICE SCIENCES.
BUT THAT'S
FOR MY BENEFIT HERE
AS MR. XTREME AND
THE XTREME JUSTICE LEAGUE.
Lieutenant Andra Brown:
WHILE ON THE SURFACE
SOME SIMILARITIES
BECAUSE WE BOTH:
WEAR UNIFORMS,
WE BOTH WEAR SOMETHING
THAT IDENTIFIES US.
THE POLICE OFFICER'S
UNIFORM:
GIVES PEOPLE CONFIDENCE
THAT A TRAINED PROFESSIONAL
IS HERE,
SOMEONE THAT:
THEY RECOGNIZE:
AS SOMEONE TO HELP THEM
IS HERE.
UNFORTUNATELY,
A LOT OF PEOPLE SEE
A REAL-LIFE SUPERHERO
COSTUME,
AS JUST THAT-- A COSTUME.
WE'RE GOING.
WE'RE DOING IT.
- OH MY GOD.
- ( screams )
GOOD EVENING.
OH MY GOD.
I AM A KNIGHT FROM HELL
COME TO SALT LAKE CITY
TO TRY TO PROMOTE
GOOD AND WELL-BEING.
MY OUTFIT-- IT'S ALL BLACK
FOR A REASON.
IT'S SO I CAN BLEND IN
WITH THE DARK.
IT'S INTIMIDATION
AND A FEAR TACTIC.
SOMETHING THAT I CAN
SLIP INTO REALLY QUICKLY.
I REALLY VEERED:
TOWARD A COSTUME
THAT DEFINITELY WAS
A CLASSIC SUPERHERO IMAGE,
VERY RECOGNIZABLE.
YOU KNOW, I'M WEARING A TIE,
