Sadly Batman impersonator Leonard Robinson has been killed. Seemed like a nice guy. I like the clip of him being stopped by the police in 2012.

Shame. A decent bloke doing good stuff just because he thought he should.

I find it charming that Batman's Batmobile equivalent in real life is a black Lamborghini. I always knew that fibreglass monstrosity with the loud turbine noises in the TV series was a phoney.
Holy Countach Robin!

Turns out it's got quite an interesting history - started life as a one-off 1955 Lincoln Futura concept car, and the fibreglass ones were copies made for exhibition apparently:
