hi sean, he's not 'mad' although some may argue he's crazy. I found Chopper to be a great storyteller - and a lot of fun to have a few drinks with at the pub. Despite what some puritans may claim - that he's a criminal blah blah blah - he is an Australian icon with a major Aussie award winning movie about his life. Multiple books. And his sense of humour is truly delightful. So yes - he may be a little bit mad - but aren't we all? And the most interesting people I know are kinda crazy :)

Chopper has died. The criminal perpetrator became a criminal commentator. He was a living legend despite what some pious judgemental types might say about him. And he was funny. Sitting in a pub, having a drink with him and listening to a few stories - the guy was entertaining. And he was privy to a side of life most of us only ever see in movies. It's a rare thing for a career criminal to die of old age. I wish his family all the very best and hope the media is kind to them.

Chapter 22 in Chopper's 2nd book Hits & Memories explains more about that day. I have explained it in previous comments, articles, TV ages etc. Quick summary: I wanted Chopper to explain how he won Russian Roulette against the Chinese mafia because his 'strategy' was to take 2 shots at his own head. When he loaded the gun & pulled the trigger, I didn't know I'd be going 2nd. I didn't believe he'd pull the trigger in my face. The cameraman called 'enough'. Chop said 'now the camera is off, I'll tell you how I won. An overly oiled barrel takes the weight of the bullet to the 3rd or 4th chamber - so the first 2 are clear.' Is it true? Maybe? Does it work every time. I doubt it.

I understand your point of view and others share it. I have not referred to him as a 'nihilistic thug' so you might have to check who said that. Many Australian's regard Ned Kelly and the sheep thief The Jolly Swagman as national treasures and icons f homage to our convict past. Chopper happens to be living version of that. And it's just my opinion after all - it's not true for all Australians. And when it comes to cops and robbers movies, I cheer for the robbers. Better senses of humour ;)

I think he was probably bipolar to be honest. Almost certainly. I counsel several people with the condition and they have remarkably similar personality traits - the over-the-top, dramatic, almost theatrical tone of the voice and personality is very typical. They’re constantly putting on a show - because they’re trying to hide how they’re actually feeling. Of course Chopper is an extreme case. Most bipolar people just get very depressed when something bad/stressful happens to them, whereas his outlet was obviously violence.

This has been answered - ad nauseum - in comments here and in articles and TV segs and last year in a news.com.au seg when I sold sold all the handwritten letters to a fan - but here we go again: my brother gave me a book written by a little known Melbourne crim and said -between the lines, he's telling a few truths about how things work between the cops and crims. So I found out Chopper was out of jail in a rare bout of freedom and I took a crew to Tassie for a bit of a chat and shoot some frames. He had lots of guns with him. I didn't ring ahead and say 'by the way - are you all tooled up for the show?' I saw the shotgun on the rear dash of the car, the 1938 Beretta pistol on the front dash and there were other guns I can't recall. Before Louis Theroux, I was putting myself in out-of-my-depth situations and writing about them. What would you have done? Cancelled the interview? Folded your arms and stormed back to the plane in a huff? Or got on with the job? I chose to get on with the job.
@reneebrack10 жыл бұрын
Chopper's stories weren't all fiction as commented here - he heard stories in jail which he then told as his own. This annoyed some crims and made others happy because it deflected attention away from them. Sure Chopper has a gift for fiction - but some of his stories are fact. And some are stories that starred him in his versions of them.

Overall, during filming, he was being a prankster and playing to the cameras.

A repost was also on Worldstar about him... I had no idea who he was 2 days ago. Now I've watched multiple vids about him.

Your bravery is impressive. I loved his reaction to your question: "are you a sociopath". From what I understand about sociopathic behavior, that's how a sociopath would respond. He thinks it's funny. The guy has an undeniable charisma. You aren't bad to look at either.

Just heard about this guy on the Sofa King podcast, what a character! I strangely admire this guy. Even at the end he turned down a transplant. His life, his terms...... also, i think he met his match with this lady, Louis Theroux would've flinched or ran no doubt!

I don't think chopper was a sociopath, he had it pretty rough, psycho mum, crazy gun loving dad. He had 60 serves of electric shock treatment as a teenager. That's going to effect anyone. He had 2 sons that he loved and a wife, sociopaths are incapable of love.
