Another dumb crook

contender · Dec 31, 2014

Watching the national news tonight, I saw a story that made me laugh out loud.
A crook was trying to blow up an ATM machine. It was caught on camera, where it blew up in his face, blew him several feet backwards & out of his flip-flops! I think it was in Australia, but I may be wrong. Laughing too hard!

Yeah contender,
I saw that on TV too, and lmao.

But ,did you see the extended version....where they showed the actual damage to the ATM machine?

For any that saw that.....HOW THE HELL WAS THIS GUY'S TOP HALF NOT BLOWN OFF!
He should have been shredded into little tiny pieces!

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who saw this. I have truly enjoyed it. I do wish he'd been caught, so he could be paraded before the system, where more could laugh at him.
As for why he wasn't blown to bits, the machine isn't flexible, and he was. If he had been a solid object, and stationary, he would have gotten a lot more damage to his body. As it was, the force of the explosion sent him a flying!
