WATCH: Bay Claims He Was Arrested at the Vatican, Admits in a Video He Had Handcuffs On
Famous filmmaker Michael Bay, best known for directing the Transformers movies, says he was arrested while trying to enter a restricted area at the Vatican. Bay shared a video on Instagram, where he appeared to be in custody and wearing handcuffs.
In the clip, Bay is seen standing on Vatican grounds, explaining what happened. “They are taking me to the prison, it’s a local prison here,” he says in the video. “So let me tell you, do not break into the Vatican. I got handcuffs on right now. I turned myself in.”
While the full details of the incident are still unclear, Bay admitted in the video that he attempted to enter a restricted area, which ultimately led to his detention by Vatican security.
The Vatican, the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church, is one of the most visited places in the world. However, certain areas are strictly off-limits to the public. It’s unclear what exactly Bay was trying to access, but his attempt to enter a restricted zone was enough to get him detained.
Bay did not provide additional details about his intentions or why he wanted to access the area. However, his Instagram post suggests that he wasn’t aware of how serious the consequences could be. His remark, “Do not break into the Vatican,” hints that he may not have expected to get arrested.
It remains unknown if Bay faced any formal charges or if he was released shortly after the incident. Authorities at the Vatican have not made any public statements regarding the situation.
Bay, known for his high-energy action films and explosive scenes, now finds himself at the center of an unusual real-life drama. Fans are waiting to see if he will provide more details or if this will remain a mysterious and unexpected moment in the director’s life.
