Stupid criminal video


This video is several years old, but worth sharing for those who haven't seen it. A CCTV camera captures the efforts of two young men, one of whom stands guard while the other tries to bust the window of a building with bricks.

The audio would have to have been added to the video; whether the rest is somehow faked or not is uncertain; Snopes addresses a similar event, but doesn't seem to have an entry for this specific one. There may be some clues at the YouTube discussion, but I can't bring myself to wade through the drivel on such threads.

  1. Looks like video game physics. Most definitely fake. Both characters fall before getting hit, they fly much farther than you could possibly move a human with a small rock, the window (assuming it is "lexan") could not possibly be that elastic that it would throw a rock back that hard, and the motions of the people are not human like at all (but look more like background characters of a video game).
