Подозреваю, что это никому кроме меня и ирваго не интересно, но на ф-буке потеряется, а я так рада, что нашелся Банг-Банг.

Вот он этот банг-Банг
Bang Bang (Thomas Dudley) was an eccentric elderly gentleman in Dublin in the 1950s and 1960s who achieved fame as a character in the city. A fan of cowboy films, Bang Bang used to travel the buses and trams of the city staging mock shoot-outs with passing people (hence his nickname). He carried a large church key in his pocket which he used as a ‘gun’. Dubliners, who enjoyed his good-natured antics, used to participate in his games, sometimes “returning fire” by pretending they had a gun in their hands and shouting “bang bang” back at him, or by falling down “dead” on the city streets when he suddenly appeared at the back of a bus or tram and “shot” them. On occasion Bang Bang even interrupted plays on stage by “shooting” the actors, generally to the amusement of actors and audiences alike.
