A Norwegian guy watched the same movie 162 times at the cinema!?

I was just reading at a norwegian newspaper about a norwegian guy watching THE same movie 162 times during 3 months. How's that possible??!! 162 times during 3 months means he have to watch it almost 2 times a day!!! The movie he watched is the american musical Mamma Mia!. He has also seen Shrek 2 160 times, and now I think he's trying to set some kind of world record.
I would have gone insane if I were him!


Here's a link to the article, but it's in norwegian:

I remember seeing him at the cinema. He is slightly retarded I think. Autistic or something...

You should get his autograph. Do they charge him for each showing?

Autism sounds very likely. A "normal" person could never watch the same movies that many times.

oh yes, the article says he has spent 227000NOK from 2001-2007, that´s about 44-45000 US$. I remember seeing him on TV where the cinema was celebrating their anniversary or something, and he was their number one customer... they gave him 10 free tickets...

Wasn't there a Norwegian lady who watched the over 3 hours long Titanic over 100 times when it had it's absurdly long run in Norwegian theatres?

Maybe there's a reason for it: the article says he lives with his mum!

Good thing he didn't choose ICHI THE KILLER for his record. I hear it just got banned in Norway, LOL.

I swear, Robin, there are times when I just start thinking about Goatse and laugh. It cracks me up to no end. I can't imagine an internet without it.

Have you seen the whole array of pictures? It's at http://www.goatsemarathon.com if not.

Has anyone in the Norwegian government thought to look into the fact that his autism/retardation could be the result of WATCHING MAMA MIA AND SHREK 2 160+ TIMES OVER 3 MONTHS???!!!

The Norwegian Government has done the same thing themselves. That's why they are retarded.
