Medium to nightmare for the WTTW version, because of the overly strange stuff and the eerie sounds/voice and constant movements.WTTW version: A heavily distorted voice, which is very hard to describe what he's saying without the subtitles, along with accompanying sound effects (like the can thudding and the girl hitting the man's bom).WGN version: Distorted wave sounds with buzzing.The girl then smacks his bom with a swatter 11x and the man screams He then moves his head to reveal that he has some of his pants down. ![]() At the end, we see him pulling a face to a girl (possibly a child). He does stuff such as moving his head out of the camera, throwing a can of soft drink and grabbing/tossing a garden glove. I'm wondering, because I'm not sure if this is a source I saw through your post, but an FBI agent involved said the FCC didn't want to touch this case or go further ("start knocking on doors").We see a (possibly drunk) man wearing a Max Headroom mask saying/humming weird stuff and doing weird stuff over a moving background (that looks like a tin wall). The intruder was successful in interrupting. It is an example of what is known in the television business as broadcast signal intrusion. I've seen so much information that it's hard to follow the bouncing ball always.Įdit: I just re read the last part. The Max Headroom broadcast signal intrusion was a television signal hijacking that occurred in Chicago, Illinois, United States on the evening of November 22, 1987. I'm not sure if you've seen them or the guy behind fuzzymemories has. I'm waiting on obtaining the FBI files, so I guess that'll be definitive proof on that matter, at least. The camera person or the woman could've been the mastermind, with Eric as the Divine to their John Waters. While Eric had no technical background, it doesn't rule him out as being the guy in the mask, considering there were at least two other people involved. I also have read a source saying a close friend of Eric's said he admitted to doing it, but that they could never be sure because he was so eccentric and would just say things to be shocking. How do we know Fournier was never questioned by the FBI? I heard reports he was, along with some other people tied to an Indiana University tv station. I'm a little starstruck that you're commenting, lol. That's why they're in a studio, after all. The kinds of cameras used in professional television studios are far different than consumer-grade video equipment, require secondary processing hardware, and work on completely different power requirements. Reports that he supposedly "borrowed studio equipment a week before the incident", or was otherwise investigated by the FBI are simply bogus claims. He had no opportunity, no expertise, and no motive. If I remember correctly, one of Fournier's band members, his drummer I think, steadfastly denied it was Eric, saying that while he would have been humbled to be accused of it, he lacked any technical skill, and wasn't a hacker by any stretch. His only apparent "link" to the Headroom incident is the fact that someone noticed he was weird, wore a mask, and was somewhat close to the Chicagoland veral years after the fact. He was never investigated by either the FBI, or the FCC as part of the Headroom investigation, to my knowledge. I'll do my best to detail the facts versus the BS below:Īs far as is known, Fournier had no technical background in broadcasting, lacked access to microwave transmision gear, and lacked the requisite knowledge of STL sites and frequencies to pull it off. There seems to be a lot of folklore involving Eric Fournier for some reason. ![]()
