Robbery Fail: Man with gun gets denied by shopkeeper

A robber who wanted to hold up a convenience store was told by the shopkeeper to go away - so he did.

Oh here we go again, another idiot with a gun. Most of these guys are a little too trigger-happy and that’s when bad things happen.

This is not the case for this shy little robber. It all goes down in the first minute, because it only took about 45 seconds for this robber to completely fail.

On Tuesday, March 4, Bendigo’s, a 24-hour convenience store experienced another robbery for the fourth time this year … but this time, the attempt was laughable.

Wearing a black balaclava mask in the middle of what looks like summer, the robber casually strolls into the store. With no one around, the robber takes a gander at a couple snacks. Being a robber is tough work, he might need a snack.

Just then, the store clerk appears. The robber empties his pocket in search of his gun, aims it at the store clerk, presumably telling him to hand over the money.

The store clerk, calm as anything, says “no”.

Hats off to you, Mr. Badass store clerk! The robber, who looks all of 18-years-old at the most, begins to argue with the store clerk, pointing the gun at him for a second time.

The store clerk, or ‘the Shopkeeper with Balls of Steel” as buzzfeed.com calls him, doesn’t make a move. Instead, he reiterates the “no” he told the robber earlier.

At this point, most robbers would start screaming and/or shoot the store clerk but not this guy, no. No means no, buddy, you better put your gun away and move along.

Amazingly though, he does! The robber puts away his gun, and exits the store … with his tail between his legs, of course.

You have to wonder what this young man was thinking. I’m gonna go in there, get all the money, maybe a snack, and if anyone gives me any trouble … I am calmly going to put my gun away and leave! Sorry, I tried!

Worst robber ever. I hope this guy got caught, just for being so stupid.
