99-Year-Old Woman Gets Arrested So She Can Check It Off Her Bucket List
A 99-year-old woman in the Netherlands got the help of her local police to fulfill her longtime wish of getting arrested.
Attaining centenarian status might be a grandiose accomplishment for many, but 99-year-old Annie is determined to do more than that in her long life. In fact, she’s outlined an entire bucket list of everything she’d like to do before she passes, and one of the goals was to get arrested.
Fortunately, she didn’t need to commit a serious crime to make this a reality. Instead, she contacted the Nijmegen-Zuid police station and authorities were more than willing to help her dream come true.
Like a hardened criminal, Annie was handcuffed and “briefly allowed” to sit in a cell with fastened handcuffs. This occurred after officers picked her up from her home. A rare exception was made for the 99-year-old, as citizens who haven’t committed a crime aren’t ordinarily allowed to be in the cells.
The photos below perfectly encapsulate how pleased Annie was to be able to check “go to jail” off her bucket list. She clearly loves to live on the wild side and because she’s an advocate for living life to the fullest, her story has been shared on True Activist.

Leopard Tank Brake Test
How do you test the brakes of your Leopard tank? If you’re mad like the Dutch, you nearly run over 22 people.
I was’t particularly worried about the lives of these 22 be-suited demo people, but it’s still an amazingly dramatic way to show off your machine’s capabilities.
