I thought it was hilarious to see a naked man in the middle of the winter, that's why I shot him ;)

No, he will never end up in jail. He is a staple performer in NYC, kinda a tourist attraction.

I've met him too couple of years ago - had a D60 with Sigma 14mm on hand and suddenly the guy ran next to me and a TV crew jumped in, so I took a few shots (f3.5 ISO 1000), they weren't of stellar technical quality but at least the moment was captured...

Yeah, I've been to New York many time in 2003-2004, and I've seen him two or three times in Times Square. Got a photo of him somewhere. He is an icon and I've even seen him on MTV.
