Wow! I know the guy personally who played Han Solo in that video! That video doesn't do justice because "Jimmy" is absolutely incredible when I would see him dressing up as Han Solo at sci-fi conventions. He's a very down to Earth & very nice guy in real life, but once he puts on his Han Solo garb, his personality would completely change into Han Solo. He's even got Harrison Ford's mannerisms from the Star Wars movies down to a tee, and it was like seeing Han Solo stepping out from the Star Wars movie. (He even talks, walks and leans on the wall like Harrison Ford.) He's also really funny, and he had us in stitches from cracking up all the time when he hanged around with us.
I don't think he's ever dressed up as Indiana Jones though....except for that one time that he did a skit for the Masquerade costume contest at a "Star Wars Celebration" convention. (The skit was about Han Solo riding a stubborn Taun Taun creature from "Empire Strikes Back". The Taun Taun was being as stubborn as a mule & refused to move, no matter how much how much Han Solo would try to get it to move. Out of desperation, Han Solo suddenly puts on a Indiana Jones fedora, cracked a whip, and the Taun Taun went running off the stage while the "Raiders Of The Lost Ark" theme was being played in the background.)
