When\nthe tourists are coming closer to him, he, all of a sudden, starts shaking the\nlarge leaf at the pedestrians and says words such as &#8220;ugga bugga&#8221; and\nerrghh, and sometimes he just growled in front of the pedestrians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This thing has made him San\nFrancisco&#8217;s favorite entertainer. People can be seen watching him scare the\ntourists. He calls himself an entertainer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, not everyone loves him. In\n2004, the police department received many complaints against him. And he was\nput on for a four-day trial, but then he was acquitted; since then, there have\nbeen no charges against him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1999, Bushman also had hired a\nbodyguard, Gregory Jacobs. They worked together for years. Apart from being his\nbodyguard, Jacob also lets Bushman know who&#8217;s coming, as well as distract the\nwalkers before johnson jumped out. After Johnson entertains the walks, Jacob\nwould also ask the pedestrians to pay Johnson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jacob also claims that he earns\nnearly $60,000 a year from his street antics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How it all\nstarted? <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People might be wondering how he\ncame up with this idea. Before becoming a Bushman, Johnson worked as a shoe\nshiner, and he started wearing some sort of costume to grab the attention of\nmore people and get more customers for his shoe-shining business. This idea\nworked for him. And soon, all other shoe-shiners copied his idea and started\nwearing the same costume. And after that, he came up with the new design of\nhiding behind bushes and jumping out at the pedestrians, and the rest is\nhistory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Francisco&#8217;s Bushman has been famous for popping out and up from behind large camouflaging branches and entertaining the pedestrians.
