My favourite one is an American law: It is illegal to tie an alligator to a flagpole in Texas. That means someone in history wrestled an alligator, dragged it to a flagpole and then tied it on the flagpole, before they made it illegal to do so.
But it says Texas so you can do it in other states-
Damn well guess Texas isn’t so great after all
Apparently there are some more involving alligators; It is illegal to tie an alligator to a fire hydrant in Louisiana and Florida. In Florida it is also illegal to tie your pet elephant, goat or alligator to a parking meter.
@@N4ut1lusSplatoon i mean, good luck forcing Florida to not do that.
@@euhm That would suggest that it is perfectly legal to tie an elephant to a fire hydrant, when you put them side by side. I can kinda understand the fire hydrant thing, though. I've seen photos where firefighters broke windows in a car parking directly in front of a fire hydrant, to pull the hose(?) through it. The car owner was also fined for blocking the way. In a video, a firefighter explained/showed that had they ran it over, under or around the car, there is a risk of it bending in a way that would block/slow down the water flaw and that is crucial to putting out fire.
What I don't understand is why they didn't just use "(dangerous) animals" in those lawmakings. I mean you could technically tie a crocodile to a flagpole, no?
Being drunk in a pub is the weirdest law ever.
It's actually "in a public place whether in a building or not, or any licensed premises". It's probably a law to help the police help bar/store owners get rid of annoying drunk customers.
London police:
- He's just firing a cannon, that'll be 200 pounds sir.
- Holy fooking sweet Mary that guy is shaking a doormat! Arrest him!

I think my favourite London law is the one against wearing "an outrageous double ruff," which I believe is also from the Metropolitan Police Act 1839.
To me sounds more like some Elizabethian law. Probably repealed since then though, probably in Jacobean times.

Ok but what the HELL happened for them to be like "ok that's it no more handling salmon suspiciously" in 1986?
There’s got to be a great story behind most of these laws. I just know it.
Someone probably held a salmon suspiciously duh
The salmon act is about salmon poaching. The handling under suspicious circumstances part of it penalised doing anything salmon you have reason to believe has been poached
@@davidhildebrandt7812 or maybe they just handled salmon very very suspiciously
Ding Ding The CZcams Buddy
POLICE!! IS THAT FREAKING FISH JENGA?!
So playing ding-dong-ditch incurs a bigger penalty than shooting a cannon?
Basically.
I'm guessing the cannon law was written before the ding-dong ditch law when money was worth more and nobody bothered to re-write it because it's not as if many people are likely to have cannons now, and there are probably other laws you're violating if you use dangerous objects near people.
Yeah I imagine various firearm laws with multi year if not decade sentences

I love how it's only salmon getting handled in a suspicious manner that's illegal, but not other fish
Salmon was more valuable and thus a bigger target for poaching
Salmon were generally from rivers owned by the toffs, commoners in possession of Salmon was thus always deemed a bit, erm... fishy...
It was expanded at some point recently to include trout. And another kind of fish, but I’ve forgotten which.
It's like it happened before....

@Jack That's a LOT of inflation for less than ten years time. ( 200 pound fine for the cannon thing is from 1839, 1000 pound fine for the ding dong ditch is from 1847.)

Did you know it's illegal to die in the House of Commons.
No I think it is legal, but they don't want you to because if you die in Parliament, you get a state funeral.
Conor Doran A law from 1313 does indeed make it illegal to die in the Palace of Westminster (which went on to be the Houses of Parliament). Poor Spencer Perceval, who holds the unfortunate claim to fame of being the only British Prime Minister to have been assassinated (he was shot in the lobby of the House of Commons) officaly died at 10 Downing Street, despite actually being dead for nearly 12 hours. His body was moved from the Speaker's drawing room in Parliament (where he had actually died shortly after being shot) to 10 Downing Street where he was "offically" declared dead.
Conor Doran so what,if you drop dead there,they suppose to lock you up or something,maby charge you?
Lord Voldie It's because anyone who dies there, has to be given a state funeral. I think the family gets fined or something like that.
