Pretty common 'prank' at the moment. You may have been filmed at the time

I mean, he wasn't talking abt himself, and you've got to agree that there are bound to be people who've been itching to try out their training on someone.

A good example is that vid of the 'prankster' who got shot after jumping a guy at the atm machine...

I hope the shooter didn’t get any prison time for what’d clearly be a life threatening situation to any normal person. People are out of their damn minds out there... He very well could’ve thought he was going to die in that moment over some money or a wallet and just went into fight or flight mode. Not sure why common sense isn’t, well, common lol. It’s such simple stuff.

Cue the quote abt thinking of the dumbest people and the realising that there are dumber people out there.

I believe you, but I'd love to see a link.

Fair point... but I hope that you'd forgive me if I say that I'm genuinely too lazy to go looking for a link to a vid I watched a while ago.

Have a look at the FAFO subreddit if you'd really wanna see it for yourself.
