2009, the year The Hangover hit cinemas, was not a good one for Thaddeus Kalinoski. He'd been both fired from his management job and divorced from his wife.

To console himself, he went to Las Vegas to get all kinds of fucked up. Little did he know that'd he end up making a career out of it. All thanks to a vague resemblance.

Thaddeus quickly found work on the Strip in the wake of The Hangover and thanks to his lookalike potential.

Not before long, he was bringing in $900 a night, just by posing for pictures with tourists.

However, Thaddeus is now hanging up his boots out of fear that may overdo it on the drugs and drink. He told the Sun: "Playing Alan, everyone expects you to party, everyone expects you to drink. Whatever they have, and whatever is they want you to do for a tip, you better do it.

"People would give me full bottles of liquor before they hopped on their flights.

"I remember one night this caused me to blackout, falling into broken glass bottles, getting sliced open and I was robbed."

"I remember I once got so drunk one night that I puked and defecated all over my costume in the Caesars valet lot and had to drive home naked.

"I was under so much pressure to do parties and was often pushed into rooms with groups of people telling me I had to do drugs. It got really desperate."

He went on to reveal that it was only money that he got in reward.

"The women were my favourite part, If I'm being truly honest."

"I've seen my fair share of breasts, some ladies have even shown them as a tip or they've let me grab onto them.

"I've made out with some total strangers in elevators and they think no one's watching but there's always security cameras there."

"I've had women giving me a tip in my pocket and grabbing hold of my junk. Being a single man, it wasn't too bad."

Swings and roundabouts.
