Meet Alessandro Botta and Christian - two best friends who love Deadpool, just like you and me. However, their movie date turned into a nightmare. 

The die-hard fans, who were super excited to watch Ryan Reynolds's Deadpool 2 in Switzerland, decided to make it a day they would remember forever. The guys decided to dress up as the Marvel superhero - completing their ensemble with toy guns - before meeting at a bus station and heading to the cinema.

However, before they could reach the theatre, they were apprehended by eight armed cops with their guns drawn.

It is reported that someone called the cops after seeing the men with their faces covered and guns in hand. Apparently, the friends were detained for around an hour before being let go. 

Whatever happened was, no doubt, unfortunate but we must hail the cops' prompt action given the terrible times we live in.
