The feat could get him into the Guinness World Records for the hottest verified mile run in history, never mind the Vader outfit.<\/p>\n<p>What force, you might ask, who compel someone to do this? \u201cThere is no good reason for it other than the sheer joy of seeing the looks on the faces of the people quietly trying to escape the cloying heat, windows rolled up and AC blasting \u2026 while you thunder by, cape flying,\u201d Rice wrote on his website. \u201cSome people collect porcelain kittens.
