Its always funny that on a show often celebrated for its realism, its most popular character(Omar) was easily the least realistic.

A lot of what he did on the show was supposedly true, including the jumping off the balcony thing.

I'm sure some was embellished, but most of it is based off of shite that really happened.

Ah.

The whistling and "Omar coming" stuff always seemed made for tv

"That's some Spiderman shite."

Apparently the real jump was from higher up, and they lowered it so it wouldn't be so unbelieveable.
