Brilio.net/en - German police officers would be wearing a new bulletproof uniform to fight crime on the streets. Though, some of them looked dissapointed when knowing about their upcoming hi-tech outfit.
It turns out they were dissapointed because their new uniform resembles that of Darth Vaders costume, one of the most famous villain characters in the Star Wars movies. This disappointment can be seen from the expression of the policeman who became the model of this new outfit. He looked so embarrased and uncomfortable with his new protective suit.
Stated by the Interior Minister of Germany, Joachim Herrmann, when introducing the bulletproof suit to public in Munich as reported by Mirror, Saturday (29/11), this bulletproof suit is featured with protective ceramic plates and a titanium helmet capable of stopping a bullet.
However, this new outfit has become quite a discussion among German netizens. Most of them mentioned the helmet was not only similar to Vaders but also a mushroom.
OMG! This bulletproof uniform looks like a Darth Vaders costume! tweeted Nadin Schildhauer on her twitter account, @N_Flux.
