Video: Max Headroom WGN9 Pirating Incident - 11/22/87
Author: j
Description: NOTE: Please do not rip this and then re-upload it to YouTube. It really makes no sense to have copies of the same exact video on here. I put alot of editing into making this replica video so if I see it's been reposted by someone I will report it to YouTube.--------------------------------------This was stitched together using the video of the news clips that aired the day following the hijacking...

Stupid. There is nothing to copy here. Makes no sence people do ot know what heppend. You need the broadcast before this happened.Search "WTTW 1987" to get the full broadcast.

Dr Who - the hell cares.Anyway, it sucks that this only happened during the 1980s. It would be impossible to do it now because C-Band is just about dead and new formats are probably a lot harder to hijack.

That's awesome, I never even heard of this before but whoever pulled that off, mad props to them. Maybe 20 years from now someone will eventually come forward :)

This one is scarier than the other one.

interfering with an FCC signal is a Federal offense, so there might not be a statute of limitations.

So what?

We live in the UK. We don't have Basements. I don't like Dr. Who, I was just correcting your mistake.

Really.... your nitpicking me on Dr. Who.... wow... dude... quit calling your moms basement "The TARDIS"

Dr. Who isnt a sitcom, sitcom's are where somebody is laughing the background. Dr. Who is a sci-fi series.

Great work on this recreation. In the little bits from the WGN broadcast that are available, it looks different to the later WTTW incident. I mean, Max is saying something different. It would be great if a full tape of this went public, so we'd once and for all, know what he was ranting on about. Anyone know the statue of limitations on this sort of thing? Could the perpetrators go public without fear of prosecution? I doubt they would, they might lose their mystique.

Actually this is the only audio in this part

> jonrev said on 07-12-2009 at 16:20:
Good luck finding better audio.

> cbgames said on 07-12-2009 at 15:36:
maybe someone will rip this and take that bad audio out sense you don't know how. then they'll upload it because it not yours anyway.

> wiredmilk said on 07-08-2009 at 13:21:
This is the first attempt about 2 hours prior to the video you mention. This happened on channel 9 and the other was on 11 during Dr. Who sitcom.

this is sooooo scary!

> TheSaintOfPain said on 06-23-2009 at 05:00:
Like the description says, it was pieced together from various news clips that covered the incident, and is an approximate recreation, and not the actual broadcast.

> SteelCity1981 said on 05-30-2009 at 08:38:
Did anyone see the whole thing? I started cracking up when the guy pulls his pants and and someone starts smacking his ass!

> Shogun57 said on 05-30-2009 at 05:48:
Exactly and it actually makes this whole thing even more strange, how were they not caught

> Shogun57 said on 05-27-2009 at 02:45:

> bixxius said on 04-25-2009 at 08:27:
