THAT GUY THAT DOES THAT THING.

Have been running a rickshaw for almost 9 years. Went to NYC in August 2009 with no contacts and no plans except to run all over the city. Within the first week of being there i was spotted, captured and aired nationwide on TMZ tv: http://www.tmz.com/tmz-tv/?mediaKey=9f0cd5bd-17fc-4caf-8a86-a234e9997161&isShareURL=true Promptly was shooshed out of mid town by the mickey mouse police and found refuge in The Village. Making the nightly rounds between West and East Village, Soho and LES, i would meet so many fabulous people from all over the world, including Cat Greenleaf from NBC: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/on-air/as-seen-on/Spiderman_Rickshaw_New_York.html ....by the time i had left NY that december that video was playing in the back of most taxi cabs in the city on the taxi tv! So i was'nt exactly a hard guy to spot on the street, i was after all dressed like a super hero running upside buildings while toting some passengers behind me. Everyone wanted a piece of the action, even Silke Haas from Germanys largest tv station, RTL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWMBoP7GaQ0&feature=channel_video_title and even a few appearances on Japanese Nippon tv (NTV) : que vid to 25:30min http://static.youku.com/v1.0.0140/v/swf/qplayer.swf?VideoIDS=XMjQ4ODUwNDY0&embedid=NzAuMTE5LjcxLjYCNjIyMTI2MTYCeW91dHViZW93YXJhaXR2LmJsb2czMi5mYzIuY29tAi9ibG9nLWVudHJ5LTc1NTMuaHRtbA%3D%3D&showAd=0 blogged in the New York Times http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/15/a-rickshaw-pulling-spider-man-revealed/ Huffington Post http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/16/real-spider-man-shaun-eme_n_322843.html and countless other outlets. All of the positive attention and support is great, but the most amazing part of what i do is the interaction between me and the passengers. I'm not here to take you from A to B, i'm here to have a good time, getting there is just a bonus. On another level, its amazing how what i do interacts with the neighborhoods that i travel in and out of. To be able to just show up in New York and become welcomed is something special to me and i would like to do it all over the world.

This summer i intend to travel back to NYC for a bit and then make my way cross country to LA by fall. By next year i am wanting to bring my rickshaw to Europe and finally Tokyo. For me the thrill and challenge is making my way into a new city and becoming a part of it's fabric. So far i have only been documenting this with low quality outtakes on youtube. My goal ,aside from traveling the world with my rickshaw, is to have a high quality documentary film produced. For this i need much bigger help and support.

Firstly and most easily, it's a big help for anyone who has footage on my rickshaw to upload it and share it. Also check out my vids and share them. Next i'm going to need to hook up with a serious documentary film maker. Please help get the word out... if any film makers are interested in running with me. I plan to be in NYC, Montreal, Toronto, Chicago, Austin to LA this summer. If you can do any or all parts of this trip, lets talk. nycfunrun@yahoo.com Thanks to all.
