So he was walking around by himself after filming at night still carrying a weapon?
I kind of doubt it was his outfit that scared the bums.

One of the few actors i actually wished I was like. Especially as snake or Mccready in the thing. But listen to him as himself. Yeah pass.

One night I had to go down about three blocks, and we didn’t have anybody to go down there with me, so I just geared up with all my guns and everything – Snake’s coming in to wreak some havoc – and I came around the corner and there are these four guys there. We’re around the corner now, and none of my guys can see me. I just looked at these guys and they looked at me. And this is how different this was at that time: when you saw that guy, with a serious machine gun and a knife and a bunch of stuff you didn’t know what it was, even. I just flashed the light a little bit on the gun, and these guys looked at me, and they were pretty rough characters, and they just went, ‘Hey man, easy, easy.’ And they turned and walked away. I couldn’t wait to get back and tell John, ‘I think this guy’s going to work!’

I think this might’ve been the first non-Disney movie I saw him in, now that I think about it.
I saw an interview with him years ago and he said one of his proudest career moments was being able to fit into his Snake Plissken costume for “Escape From LA.” I was like “Dude, I’d be proud of that too.”

80s movie anti-hero vibes, absolutely nailed it
