'Johnny Debt': Beggar's impersonation of Captain Jack Sparrow leaves internet impressed | Watch

Screengrabs from the viral video shared by @javroar on Twitter.

The video of a beggar impersonating Captain Jack Sparrow on the streets has gone viral. While the popularity of actor Johnny Depp's character from Pirates of the Caribbean have prompted several entertainers to don the pirate leader's hat, the way the man perfectly imitated Sparrow's mannerisms won hearts on the internet.

Some even referred to the man as "Johnny Debt".

The video was shared two months ago, when Depp in the middle of a legal battle against his former wife and actor Amber Heard but has recently resurfaced on social media.

The clip shot at an unidentifiable location shows the beggar approaching a car waiting at a traffic light before taking out his toy gun and pointing it at the person in the car. The man then reaches the car window to pull out a bag that resembles a beer mug and holding it out to the person in the car for some money. Once paid, the man then moves away from the car but maintains his mannerisms as Captain Jack Sparrow.

This was the most creative way of begging ive ever seen
