This guy should have his own show

You will have to follow the link to see one of the funniest crooks in action videos I have seen in a while.   Click here to see how not to rob a liquor store.

This guy is hilarious.  Hell, he’s so funny that I would pay good money to watch him go commit some more burglaries.  Notice that despite falling three or four times, he appears unhurt at the end.  Crook’s luck.

There was a call I responded to one afternoon while in patrol that involved some guy blowing the 220 voltage to an entire apartment building.  He was trying to steal electricity by interfering with the meter to his apartment.  He removed the meter and was rooting around inside the power box with a hammer. 

Boom!  The power goes out.

I took a witness statement from a neighbor who saw the whole thing.

..then there was this big boom, like thunder, and a funny green flash.  The dude flew backwards like twenty feet and landed on his ass with smoke coming off him like everywhere.  Then he ran up into that apartment.

I was still there when the Some City Lighting and Power guy showed up to fix it.  When I told him the story he was in astonishment and refused to believe that the guy in handcuffs was the idiot who had stuck the now somewhat charred hammer into high voltage land. 

No way.  If I did something like that my arm would have exploded.

Stupidity must be able to provide some kind of magical protective power.
