Beggar who looks like Pirates of the Caribbean character takes internet by storm
The internet has been taken by storm by what is possibly the greatest impression of Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow ever to grace the web.
The man, dressed as Depp's famous Pirates of the Caribbean hero, uses his excellent impression to deliver a never-before-seen approach to begging.
Uploaded with the film’s iconic theme tune by Hans Zimmer and Klaus Badelt, the footage shows the man approaching a car in full costume.

Aiming a replica flintlock pistol at the camera holder and with the famous Jack Sparrow body language and swagger, he approaches the open window and sticks a bag for change through the window.
The filmer obliges and with a familiar Johnny Depp twitch, quick smile and widening eyes – ‘Captain Sparrow’ moves on to the next motor.
The impression is so good that the post has gained hundreds of thousands of comments and interactions across a range of social media platforms, including Twitter and Reddit.
Amongst the best of the comments on Reddit, one user wrote: “Pirates of the car I be in,” while another said “Captain Carjack Sparrow”.
On Twitter, the video of the stunt has pulled in 64,500 retweets and 414,000 likes at the time of writing.
