Guy just tried to snatch IPhone LIVE on Fox

[distortion9]

Laura Engels is interviewing some old coot that is demonstrating the IPhone when this (white) dude walks up, reaches in, and snatches.......her FOX NEWS MICROPHONE. He goes, "Give me that fucking thing" and turns to run but, gets 2 feet before he runs into a guy and gets tackled.....good stuff.

EDIT

Watched it back and he actually went for the MIC not the IPhone..."Give me that fucking Mic."

[GLENN_THE_TOOL]

they showed him getting tackled, right? hope his face got driven into the ground.

[Redding]

anyone have video of that?

[YourAmishDaddy]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA




Ha.

[Angelfuck]

wow, that guy had no getaway plan whatsoever, he tried to like hop away, what a doofus

[Buster H]

thank god he didn't have a wow shirt on

[YourAmishDaddy]

The only that would have made that more funny is if the thief totally got away and someone was there pointing and laughing at the douche.

[abudabit]

Did he do that cause it was FoxNews?

[distortion9]

Did he do that cause it was FoxNews?

No clue...they never followed up.

Go figure...I thought it was a more interesting story than the fucking iPhone shit they were doing.

[MJMANDALAY]

He should of had a WOW shirt on ;)

[RMM46]

Did he do that cause it was FoxNews?

That's what it looked like to me.

[Chester'sLiver]

I thought it was pretty funny. He really did have no way out of there though. It looks like he just got the urge to fucking do it.

i was hoping it was a pest

[USCowboy69]

thank god he didn't have a wow shirt on

No kidding! No telling what us crazy PESTS might do!

[NoFilterPaul]

You didn't hear "Opie & Anthony" so you KNOW it wasn't me... odd though, we were thinking of going down there this AM - maybe we'll give it a miss now!!

[BravoSierra]

What the fuck was that little skip he did? What an uncoordinated looking fuck. I'll bet a FOXNEWS mic would get lots of money on ebay.

[Dr. Hoffman]

I like how the anchors apologize for the language he used. Like they have any control over it. Fucking hillarious.

[BullsLawDan]

maybe we'll give it a miss now!!

What the fuck does this mean, you British-accent-having douche?

[Captain_Spaulding]

The only that would have made that more funny is if the thief totally got away and someone was there pointing and laughing at the douche.

How would he get away sir? They could follow the mic cord.

[aerosmith6703]

Nice...

That's actually a pretty stupid but standard practice. The recent video game consoles were delivered by armored trucks to the companies doing early reviews.


The guy stealing the mic was brilliant.. in his own dumbass way.

[aerosmith6703]

How would he get away sir? They could follow the mic cord.

Wireless mic? :action-sm

[NoFilterPaul]

What the fuck does this mean, you British-accent-having douche?

It means there will be more cops about, and an AOTM might not be a good idea.... especially after my posting of that video on BREAK.COM just made the front page 8)

What year do you think we are in? "whaa" Mics don't have wires anymore ya goose.

[ChimneyFish]

thank god he didn't have a wow shirt on

I was thinking the same thing when I first heard this.

"Pleeeeaaaase, don't be someone doing this "for" O&A"

[BusyChild04]

I laughed hard. Very good. Ultimate A.O.T.M. Fuck. I don't know if I should get one or not. Fuck!

[Fr. Dougal]

What year do you think we are in? "whaa" Mics don't have wires anymore ya goose.

Actually, at a live shot like that, where there's several different news outlets going live... they'd probably use a wired mike. Wireless mikes might all step on each other's frequencies. (Most stations cheap out and buy the ones with standard freqs.)

[Simby19]

I went to the mall in NJ and there was a line of douches in picnic chairs just chilling waiting for the phones. This was at NOON. There was a security guard which made me feel bad. That is not where he saw his life going.

[Jim T.]

After listening to O&A interviewing him, he should have tried talking to the newswoman until she fell asleep and then grabbing the mic.
