How did he punk us he said, "Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story "
Chopper Read is a hero to millions of people.
Prefer Chopper to Roger Rogerson any day. Listening to Rogerson in those Pub tours would’ve just shit me. At least Chopper was making the best of his abilities and hand that was dealt him in life. Rogerson was a disgrace.
What a guy. Of all the criminals in the world, I would love to have met and bought this guy a beer (VB probably) 😉
Chopper was an absolute legend- he was a beauty
He was also Australia's biggest nark
Legend
Heath Franklin packed Bendigo’s Capital Theatre in April 2012 with his Chopper show but Chopper Reid’s show was refused at a Bendigo pub because of the potential backlash. Chopper wasn’t pleased.
I am glad that I have met the real mark chopper read himself and I gotten a picture taken with me and himself standing together it was at sexpo in Melbourne
Chopper.. a jewel amongst gravel 👍
I did some tine with chopper back in pentridge in the 80s..not much but some. Lets just say that he was different, had a few links missing. He only targeted the ones who highlighted themselves..
Chopper," bigger than Ned Kelly"? Seriously??
Ned was only 71kgs, Chopper was 100kg +
He Survived and had a giggle of a shit life and made the best of it , as you do if you want to live 😂😂👍🇦🇺🤘🏼🤘🏼🍺🍺🍺💯
Yes Wright ON
He's no where near as big as Ned Kelly, about a %
i'm from Liverpool UK so i'm hardly gonna be impressed by Chopper when i grew up knowing blokes like this
A violent father and a strict schizophrenic mother, what do you expect is going to turn out?
He never let the truth get in the way of a good story,….
Maybe he knew Wolfe Blass… or something 😮
Chopper never persuaded the nation that he was a criminal genius, he was always straight up about his history.
"Never let the truth get in the way of a good story " M B Reid.
Fact is , some of it was true, some not, some exaggerated. He was a character with knack for spining a yarn.
Do you honestly believe that all underbelly series are 100% accurate? Hope not.
If your looking for chopper only tape of him talking it all been said before from the loneRanger bang bang
Loved shand's book!
So did we!
@@LiSTNRCrime He kinda ruined the Chopper myth for me which was a bit sad but I still loved it! lol
Always the story teller . . .
Maybe that’s better ?
I knew Mark he was 1 of many guys in the old Nik in Coburg I nor liked, or disliked, I treat ppl how they treat me the guy if you knew Prison Culture in the 90s or earlier he was just another bloke indeed. I met alot ego Binse, Maladanich, even phat Carl Williams, Mark was no different, infact took the idea of the English Crooks have been writing Biography for decades & Mark took Aussie Based approach, before his book I didn't no who he was. Someone had his book in Torana YTC that's it.
Of course he was a fake
Pfft get real buddy about as fake as you
Copper Read
True 😂
How fucking dare you talk down on uncle chop chop!
'ear taday, the uva one hone tomorrow
I've knocked more than 40 why ain't I famous 🤔
.
Chopper was a absolute clown, Nothing more then that.
Man or myth 🤣😂 more like, Muppet or Puppet 🤣😂
how boring
Funny how nobody talked smack about him when he was still alive hey. And the so called gangsters he talked smack about just smiled and hid under their rocks until they got put under granite headstones. The Chopper I met on a few occasions was a great bloke and a gentleman to my mother. God bless him I say.
That's not 100% true mate, there's a few gd reasons why he got outa Dodge (Melb) and went to Tassie...
They just didn't write it down and whack it in a book.
Of course he wasn't a fake!!!! Who's speaking this rubbish??
He was
He was 'full of it'.
A fake
