Last couple days, a short video clip of the eccentric millionaire being arrested and taken to the police car has been circling all sorts of Internet sites. The short footage by someone who looks like an accidental bystander shows police officers running up to Dan Bilzerian, twisting his arms on his back and cuffing him.

It was kind of bizarre and knowing Bilzerian’s propensity for messing with everyone any time he gets a chance, it was hard to take this seriously. But the video did seem legit enough at the time, although Bilzerian’s tweet soon after the clip appeared on the Instagram kind of tipped his hand. I mean, it is hard to believe that someone charged with serious crimes would be given access to his phone right after just to alert his Twitter followers – even if we are talking a multi-millionaire.

Dan kept the joke going for a few hours, but then decided it was enough and revealed that the whole thing was just a troll.

As expected, it turns out the whole thing was just a publicity stunt, not unlike many of his other escapades involving girls and guns and whatever else he finds amusing and eccentric enough. The video following his tweet shows him riding the police car like a maniac, holding a bottle of liquor in his hand.

Why it is that Bilzerian feels he needs this type of stuff, we will never know. It’s not like he lacks anything in his life already, but clearly, despite of everything he has, the millionaire and self-proclaimed ‘highstakes poker winner’, Dan Bilzerian enjoys attention more than anything. And to make it even funnier, he does not care one little bit if that attention is of positive or negative variety.

He doesn’t seem to care if people talk bad stuff about him and accuse him of this and that. As long as he is the one being talked about, Dan Bilzerian seems content.

I am pretty sure we will not have to wait long before Dan comes up with some new stunt to make him center of attention for a couple of hours at least. Love him or hate him, but Bilzerian really seems hard to miss these days.
