An Oklahoma man taped adult magazines to his body for protection after allegedly challenging a former neighbor to a knife fight.

"I've been to prison, I know how to protect myself" said 49-year old Donald Gene Gaither, who was arrested with a knife in each hand, and his body encircled by adult magazines for armor.

Gaither was having a bad day, was in self-described "survival mode" and was stalking his neighbor over an old beef that he decided to settle with a knife fight challenge.

Gaither had taped a number of adult magazines to his midsection as a sort of makeshift body armor, calling his ex-neighbor out for a knife fight duel because Gaither was convinced his neighbor got him kicked out of the trailer park. The neighbor declined the invitation, calling the police instead.
