Egyptian Riot Wear - the people's choice
Discussion
*The following are not my words, but rather the words of an unknown author that were sent to me in an email with the accompanying pics.
These are makeshift helmets made by the Egyptians whilst scrapping in their current predicament. I shall guide you through these pieces of registered army kit thus:

Your classic 1979 ‘Tribottle’ helmet – a must in any type of combat

A late 80’s ‘boxhat’. The bloke next to him doesn’t appear too sure of its effectiveness

A renaissance period piece of brickwear teamed with a black and cream scarf. Textbook

Im not sure that tuna sarnie he is about to lob is gonna cause to much destruction. Old skool 80’s broken bin helmet. I personally love the fact he needs to lift it up to see – does he spend the rest of the time walking in to things??

Textbook saucepaning with lifejacket combo. He does not take, ANY!!

I literally have no idea what this is.

And the winner by 100 miles. This bloke is going to war with 2 baguettes strapped to his ears and a ham salad roll sellotaped to his forehead. I’d def wanna be behind him if someone lobs a load of bricks at me. And the winner by 100 miles.

No chance with baguette man on the case

I have finally seen the light......
If an Egyptian baguette, a few Egyptian coke bottles and an Egyptian cardboard box can repel a flying brick with ease, I now see no reason why a bendy copper chisel can't build a pyramid.
These people are a truly wonderous breed.
