tech_guy Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Why you should always lock your windows at night: BBC - Burglar caught in the act on CCTV A laptop & other valuables gone in less than a minute. If you're from the Nottingham area and you recognise this lowlife: Crime Stoppers 0300 300 9999.
mac_shinobi Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Impressive. The room was on the third floor! Read the description and watched the video a few times and don't hear or see any mention of which floor it is, how do you know it's the third floor ?
sippo Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 I like it how he pushed the window back after getting back. He seemed very relaxed...
mac_shinobi Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Erm...I was joking? That figures haha I like it how he pushed the window back after getting back. He seemed very relaxed... Least he could do after stealing all that stuff hehe
Dos_Box Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 It didn't work then. They're still looking for him. Perhaps the police want their laptop, PDA and other stuff back?
Rydra Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 "The capture house" It was a sting then? Ben Misleading name... I could only call it a capture house if the window slammed closed as he got in, with a big steel shutter coming down. Of course, a little hatch would need to open up, to reveal a hidden camera/monitor that recorded it all, and a message notifying the burglar that they police were on their way to talk to them

Hightower Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Or even better, an artificial wall is raised to reveal a tiger which is then let loose in the room..... Or even better yet, in the middle of the floor is a trap door that opens on pressure and leads down to a massive bath tub, and he gets stuck in the tub like a spider. And the only way out is down the plug hole, which is really sewage pipes, and he crawls and crawls and crawls. Then he gets to the end and there is a big door, and he opens it and Jack Bauer is stood there ready to take him in. What time is it?!
Sarconia Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Opportunistic stealing... don't give them the opportunity because if you do... bang, they'll get you!

You forgot the pointless room filled with invisible laser beams conveniently positioned so a flexible person can edge their way through, armed with nothing but a can of air freshener. They will wobble and almost touch the beam at least once just before the end.
tech_guy Posted July 7, 2010 Author Posted July 7, 2010 No, what we need is a huge boxing glove on a rope that swings into shot and takes him out. Did I mention the glove is covered in spikes?
Hightower Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 People like him should be made to have Tony Blair as their best friend!
Martin Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 For some reason i can't view the video on my PC - the twirly circle of dots just keeps on spinning Wierd, because iPlayer works fine. Even wierder is if i right-click to pull up the Flash Player "Settings...", the dialogue appears but i can't click on it. Do the same under iPlayer and "Settings..." is fully available. Why, oh why, do the BBC insist on using proprietary technology for a "public" service that we are (almost) forced to pay for? mb
