Package thief stole from the wrong person

Post by Executioner »

This guy is excellent engineer, and designed a special package.



The glitter was nice, but instead of fart spray, he should have used sunk spray, the real stuff, so the scum would smell very nice for days. Added bonus - if he opened it in his car, it would smell for weeks.

I was about to post this! +1 for the fart spray to encourage getting the box back!

Watch with the captions on. This was so satisfying. It would be fun to rig up a CO2 cartridge to propel the glitter.

So if cops say they wont do anything about it then its ok for me to deal with it? I say remote explosives. Then its not a trap.

Some of the video was faked by his friends. And the creator, Mark Rober, has apologized for the deception.
Rober deleted about a minute and a half from his original YouTube video yesterday, and reuploaded it—something YouTube allows you to do without sacrificing the number of hits a user has accumulated. According to Rober, one of the people to which he gave the glitter bomb had some friends or neighbors pose as thieves on video.

“It appears in these two cases, the ‘thieves’ were actually acquaintances of the person helping me,” Rober tweeted. “From the footage I received from the phones which only record at specific times, this wasn’t clear to me. I have since removed those reactions from the original video (originally 6:26-7:59).”
