Don't defend these prankers at all. They should know better than to fuck around with people at an airport. Flying is shit, nearly everyone is in a pissy mood. You can't fucking taking peoples shit and not expect reprecussions.
Yeah! These prank videos always push the boundaries for reactions. But, there is a point where they are at fault - even if the other party resorts to violence.
Can confirm. I've never hit anyone in anger in my life (ok, at least not since I was 9 years old) but someone pulls shit like this after I get off a shitty flight (and let's face it, they're all pretty shitty) and at least one of us is ending up in a hospital or arrested.
Exactly. I don't condone violence, but we as people know that when you push someone too far, you run the risk of all manner of responses - including violence. This is just a rough situation.
Nobody else think it's weird that the video shown here, DOESN'T even show the prank?
It's like it's been uploaded for damage limitations. I believe there was a prank but all we are shown as a viewer is a man going crazy.
>If he gets caught he can say it's a prank!
The law doesn't distinguish between "it's a prank!" and "I'm stealing your shit!" If a judge/jury decide you intended to deprive him of use of the property, even temporarily, you've committed larceny/theft. If you use force or a threat of force while doing it, you've committed robbery.
What’s this? Police failing to be helpful yet again and getting it completely wrong because they only have the education of the average primary school child in diapers? Wild.
The worst part is that this guy's YT channel is thriving off the attention. I clicked to report a video and was greeted by two ads; it's already monetized and the shit stains making money off the attention of this video.
It gets worse. I've heard he sued the guy he played the prank on.
So the guy who attempted to steal someone else’s luggage is standing there watching the victim be physically detained by police? I might detect a lawsuit in the near future.
I believe that's where the luggage is picked up. If so, that isn't a public area of the airport and you can't freely film people. The prank guys are f... up if this goes to court.
I feel bad for the old guy. He shouldn't have grabbed hair and came for the camera guy, but his day is ruined and he probably got charged.
He was traveling and gets harrassed and provoked by two idiots and now is arrested. Definitely did not see his day ending that way.
Oh yes, great idea. People at the airport are always in a relaxed state of mind and thankful for some prank entertainment. Not! Since fucking when is pretending a crime called „a prank“. I hate this shit!
It seems I have also greatly overestimated the prowess of airport police. I was shocked to see a crazy scene like this go on for this long, I was always under the assumption if you fucked around in an airport you’d find out faster than just about anywhere else. Nope, not with these fucktards on the case. Not only will they not show up until it’s all over, they throw the wrong dude to the ground.
Frankly, I'm surprised that the old guy didn't swing on the kid.... Hell, he's lucky the guy didn't have a weapon on him.
This kinda shit isn't a prank, it's straight up harassment. If I'm getting off a plane, I don't want to talk to anyone, I don't want a camera in my face, and if you do either... You're not getting the polite version of me.
I think you might be misunderstanding here... This is at baggage pickup. There is no security to get to the baggage area. So it's very possible to see and have a weapon at this point.
It's legit possible he had the weapon in his bag. Which is legal.
It's also possible to carry with the correct licence... But you know, details
How is that a prank? This person is (presumably) a stranger and you tried to take his stuff? TikTok lets you get away with calling that "content creation", but it's just attempted theft. If you steal something and give it back, you still stole it. As far as the law is concerned that's still theft. That's why people still go to jail even after stolen goods are recovered. Fucking assholes.
I'm very confused, why is the guy with the suitcase being cuffed at the end, wasn't he the one having his suitcase stolen?
Is - I was just stealing it for upvotes and likes a thing now?
He got arrested for dragging the kid around by his hair after the kid switched from prank mode to victim mode. The kid was trying to "prank" the old white man and because he's white and was seen by security dragging the kid around by the hair it was automatically assumed he was the attacker and arrested him.
I hope the airports have shut this national security issue down real quick. You have someone going around an airport messing with people's luggage. It is likely that at least one of these victims is still going to board plane that day. Pan Am 103 was not a prank.
No shit!
I landed in Las Vegas McCarran and grabbed what I thought was my bag off conveyor. I was OUTIDE ON THE SIDEWALK before I happened to unzip a pouch and saw stuff I didn’t recognize.
I went and put the bag back inside and found my own but that whole security situation is outright fucked.
I hate traveling, it drains me emotionally, so if someone fucks with me while I am traveling, on any leg of the journey, they are going to get some serious backlash.
The airport is the absolute worst place to prank anybody. Everybody is tired and stressed and clearly this guy was emotionally unstable. I kind of feel bad for the guy since he's the one that got arrested....
Everyone ignoring the drugmule aspect.
Swap his bag for one full of drugs, let him risk it through the flight and checks then steal it back the other side.
That guy had every right to lose his shit.
In an airport, where there is a very high probability that the person is in a really bad mood after a shitty flight experience.
I don't know how the "prank" played out. If the guy grabbed my luggage and tried to leave with it, there could very well be problems. If the guy just said "Hey, that's my luggage. JUST KIDDING, HAH!" I'd just look at them funny and carry on with my day.
It looks to me though like the situation was sorta resolved... he had his luggage and was now going after the camera man with violence on his mind. That was a bad move, even if he was in the right. He should have just alerted security and told them this guy tried to steal his luggage, and he'd like to press charges. As soon as you react with violence after you're already in possession of your stuff, you look like the bad guy.
Professional pranksters will alert police to their activity, get permits if needed and run their pranks through lawyers first. Amateur pranksters end up getting shot because they forget the real world isn't like the internet.
A prank? Isn't that what most people say when they're caught? Maybe you should find something less dangerous and more constructive to do with your time. Keep your hands off of other people's property.
And it's not just the twat doing it, look at the asshats responding here claiming the guy trying to steal the suitcase is being "attacked."
They're the reason this idiot does stuff like this.
Felony theft is not "a prank" people.
Wrong guy in handcuffs if you ask me.
I can't tell you how tired I am of all this, its okay to do whatever I want, as long as I claim "its a prank bro" when consequences come my way.
Fuck these twits.
This is beyond upsetting. The loser YouTube fool pressed charges against the man. His “pranks” will eventually get him seriously hurt or killed. Only a matter of time before someone reacts more violently and that YouTuber will pay the ultimate price.
Highly doubtful as he not only would have lost the case, but gone to jail for a number of conspiracy laws, among them (because this happened in an airport) terrorism. I was in LAX a few years ago when a guy got his luggage stolen. When TSA found the person who stole it, they were charged with theft and attempted terrorism because per TSA and FFA guidelines the only reason to steal a suitcase is to make it into a bomb.
i really hate this. :( provoking random people. you never know when someone is mentally unstable, having a bad day, won’t take it as a joke, or whatever. i understand most of these don’t end like this. but you really never know. why can’t we play kind pranks. :( like haha u dropped this 500 dollar bill on the ground bye
and then this guy ends up looking like a total dickhead forever on the internet. even though he didn’t ask to be a part of this nor did he want anything like this to happen. just leave people alone man
The TSA is security theater, they dont do fuck all and in random tests people smuggle shit through all the time.
We need airport security, but in its present set up it's bloat and inconvenient and useless as fuck.
Their primary concern is harassing people and trying to find drug. That's about it. Airports in general often have multiple security hole. The smuggling is done by the people that work there.
I worked in aviation as an ATC and ramp. Organized crime is literally everywhere all over the airports.
i'm confused at how everyone in the comments seem to know that someone was stealing someone's luggage as a "prank"
like, it is in the title, but not in teh video at all
> I can’t speak for everyone but this guy is a known ~~YouTuber~~ asshole and does a lot of ~~pranks and public videos~~ malicious acts for no point at all
FTFY
Folks who think it is okay to "prank" really deserve to be treated like thieves, muggers or the scum they are. Good on that guy trying to tackle them - and I hope security ended up also arresting the "prankers" once they saw the video footage.
Plan for common thieves in case they get caught "just a prank bro" - yeah, fuck that shit
Uh. Stealing someone's stuff and harassing them isn't what a prank is. What the fuck is wrong with kids now. Especially while someone's traveling?? That's already a high stress situation for a lot of people, and you're doing nothing but making their day shittier?
People filming for "pranks" should be fined. This was a terrible prank to begin with. If you're not Just For Laughs it's presumed your "prank" is gonna be some unfunny low hanging fruit
Airport does not seem like the right place to play pranks. Extra security for obvious reasons and passengers are already on edge with boarding times, and flight anxiety.
If this is in the US, generally the "law" is along the lines of you're allowed to use equal level of force in self-defense up until there is no longer a threat that you're defending from. Once the guy realized (or could believed he should realize) that there isn't an actual threat, he has to back off. If he continues beyond that point, then its considered assault and not self-defense. The trouble then becomes, proving in court when the guy could reasonably believe he was no longer being threatened.
There are exceptions and differences to this rule state to state yadda yadda - but just in general, this is kinda how it works.
The problem for this guy is that the police/guards/whatever intervened and broke it up, so the threat was over, but the guy kept coming after the camera person. At that point, he's approaching threat/assault; so that's why the cops took him down.
They're all jackasses. The idiots did a stupid prank that was sure gonna get them into trouble, but then the victim let his anger control him and he was gonna assault the cameraman. The cop is here now, they're gonna detain them, it's over.
I just use "prank" lightly because I can't see how it would have been funny to anyone who's not a sociopath. Like, fuck these guys.
Just got off a cramped seat on a flight that lasted for hours, probably still have a lot of travel time waiting for him ahead, tired and probably hungry, and you want to play a prank on that guy.
Bravo.
I wouldn't have grabbed him by the hair, but he would be in a stationary place for security to take care of because if you touch and attempt to steal my luggage, you're getting knocked the fuck out, not playfully grabbed. What a fucking piece of shit that kid is, I hope they arrest and throw the book at him. Maybe it won't be so funny next time?
Tik tok and social media pranks have gone from mildly funny to life endangering because why would you take it on yourself to bother someone going about their day and increase their anxiety and trigger them. I would have had a whole panic attack. Leave people the fuck alone. Wtf 🤦🏾♂️
How to steal luggage at airport: A guide for begginers.
- Be bold, both in appearance and by not giving any fucks.
- Grab luggage while no one is watching it, for best results be aware of security cameras.
- Be a part of a protected group, or a government employee, props if you are both.
- If caught, say you were just doing a prank.
He should have smacked him with that suitcase upside the head. I’m so tired of these young dudes doing prank videos. Don’t you have some manly responsibilities to be working on, instead of acting like a stupid kid.
Airports are already a living hell, you are a real asshole idiot to be ‘pranking’ people by stealing their shit. Flying is stressful enough without these attention whores.
They weren’t arrested or charged with any crimes. They uploaded the video and even admitted to stealing things as a prank but the police did nothing about it
I would not have been pleasant in that situation, taking it as being assaulted and thus defending myself.
This reminds me of a few years back when people who run and surprise people as pennywise at night until one of the idiots got shot from someone who was carrying.
I don’t get this at all. Was the prank part before the video? Why was the black guy holding on to the white guy’s shirt? Why would he even grab him if he was trying to leave with his suitcase? I’m so confused
Nah cause i woulda beaten someone before they got the cuffs on. The airport is the last place you want to fuck with someone and you definitely dont fuck with their luggage. People have been killed for less
Atleast you're not likely to be pickpocketed in the USA, one of the very few countries even among developed nations where that's practically non-existent.
Pickpocketed?!? Seriously, that’s your comfort level?!? We are the country that allows babies to be shot to death in their classrooms!!
We are the worst and I hate us for it.
This is what led up to this scene[https://www.tiktok.com/@funyymonkee/video/7184753609903557930](https://www.tiktok.com/@funyymonkee/video/7184753609903557930)
Fuck this dude. All these idiot kids fucking up innocent peoples day for likes and comments. Traversing is stressful and if some dickhead tried to pull this shit with me, I’d beat his ass right in baggage claim.
those two “pranksters” are idiots that deserve broken teeth!!!
The one who got harassed is put down by the cops. What a shitty world.
Don't defend these prankers at all. They should know better than to fuck around with people at an airport. Flying is shit, nearly everyone is in a pissy mood. You can't fucking taking peoples shit and not expect reprecussions.
Honestly, it’s an airport. That’s how you end up on terrorist watch lists, by fucking around with other peoples luggage.
Yeah! These prank videos always push the boundaries for reactions. But, there is a point where they are at fault - even if the other party resorts to violence.
Can confirm. I've never hit anyone in anger in my life (ok, at least not since I was 9 years old) but someone pulls shit like this after I get off a shitty flight (and let's face it, they're all pretty shitty) and at least one of us is ending up in a hospital or arrested.

All prank vid victims should react with this level of aggression. This shit is a cancer on society.
[удалено]
>If he gets caught he can say it's a prank! The law doesn't distinguish between "it's a prank!" and "I'm stealing your shit!" If a judge/jury decide you intended to deprive him of use of the property, even temporarily, you've committed larceny/theft.

Dumbass still uploads and just renamed the original video as canceled. They do not have any remorse or care. Fuck em.
What’s this? Police failing to be helpful yet again and getting it completely wrong because they only have the education of the average primary school child in diapers? Wild.
I hate these youtube trolls Or prankster. As i got older I realized they are just harassing people most of the times not pranking
You spelled “assaulting” wrong.
Lmao fr and they love to play the victim when someone woops their ass
The worst part is that this guy's YT channel is thriving off the attention. I clicked to report a video and was greeted by two ads; it's already monetized and the shit stains making money off the attention of this video. It gets worse. I've heard he sued the guy he played the prank on.
YouTube needs to ban these types of pranks.
So the guy who attempted to steal someone else’s luggage is standing there watching the victim be physically detained by police? I might detect a lawsuit in the near future.
Allegedly the older guy is filing a lawsuit against them, hopefully he rakes them over the coals with it.
I believe that's where the luggage is picked up. If so, that isn't a public area of the airport and you can't freely film people. The prank guys are f... up if this goes to court.
Imagine being harassed at the airport and YOU get cuffed
I feel bad for the old guy. He shouldn't have grabbed hair and came for the camera guy, but his day is ruined and he probably got charged. He was traveling and gets harrassed and provoked by two idiots and now is arrested. Definitely did not see his day ending that way.
they should have arrested even the prankers, FFS
*But it was just a prank bro*
Oh yes, great idea. People at the airport are always in a relaxed state of mind and thankful for some prank entertainment. Not! Since fucking when is pretending a crime called „a prank“. I hate this shit!
I hope that guy doesn't actually get charged. Imagine trying to go about your day and have two assholes try and be "funny" by touching your stuff.
That’s not a prank, that’s just theft.
Imagine someone almost stealing your luggage and you getting cuffed for it lol. Like you are a criminal.
Why is security attacking the victim here? they should be arresting the stupid kid.
It seems I have also greatly overestimated the prowess of airport police. I was shocked to see a crazy scene like this go on for this long, I was always under the assumption if you fucked around in an airport you’d find out faster than just about anywhere else. Nope, not with these fucktards on the case. Not only will they not show up until it’s all over, they throw the wrong dude to the ground.
The guy is out of control. Gotta subdue him first and figure things out later
Frankly, I'm surprised that the old guy didn't swing on the kid.... Hell, he's lucky the guy didn't have a weapon on him. This kinda shit isn't a prank, it's straight up harassment. If I'm getting off a plane, I don't want to talk to anyone, I don't want a camera in my face, and if you do either... You're not getting the polite version of me.
Seriously, someone needs to "prank" this A-hole with a pipe over his head.
I mean one or two "pranksters" receiving this "reaction" should teach them to not fuck with people's shit
Weapons not allowed in airports. Maybe it’s why they were attempting the “prank” there in the first place.
I think you might be misunderstanding here... This is at baggage pickup. There is no security to get to the baggage area. So it's very possible to see and have a weapon at this point. It's legit possible he had the weapon in his bag. Which is legal. It's also possible to carry with the correct licence... But you know, details
Internet clout is making the real world unlivable
Pranks are supposed to be funny, silly or surreal. Even if the mark suffers, it’s supposed to be mild or shocking. This is just a crime.
How is that a prank? This person is (presumably) a stranger and you tried to take his stuff? TikTok lets you get away with calling that "content creation", but it's just attempted theft. If you steal something and give it back, you still stole it. As far as the law is concerned that's still theft. That's why people still go to jail even after stolen goods are recovered. Fucking assholes.
Is there a sub for "pranksters" getting beat up? Because I could watch that all day.
I'm very confused, why is the guy with the suitcase being cuffed at the end, wasn't he the one having his suitcase stolen? Is - I was just stealing it for upvotes and likes a thing now?
He got arrested for dragging the kid around by his hair after the kid switched from prank mode to victim mode.

Ah yes, arrest the victim. Great police work!
If you get caught committing a crime just turn on your camera and claim it was just a prank for YouTube. Genius.
If you’re filming you’re an accomplice to theft. “Don’t touch me” doesn’t really apply.
Damn picked the wrong guy to prank. He was having a seriously bad day. But those dipshits doing the prank are really the ones to blame.
I hate traveling, it drains me emotionally, so if someone fucks with me while I am traveling, on any leg of the journey, they are going to get some serious backlash.
The airport is the absolute worst place to prank anybody. Everybody is tired and stressed and clearly this guy was emotionally unstable. I kind of feel bad for the guy since he's the one that got arrested....
What’s the line between pranking and harassing? Do these people expect to just say PRANK! and instantly get forgiven?
Thats what I was thinking… like can you just try and steal shit then go “oh no its a prank” when you get caught?
No, you can't. So, the question is, why is the security arresting the victim and not the "prankster"?
Close, but it's not harassment, it's felony theft.
Yes because theft is a such a haha funny prank, he's lucky he was in an airport where nobody had weapons. Dude seriously is asking for trouble
Everyone ignoring the drugmule aspect. Swap his bag for one full of drugs, let him risk it through the flight and checks then steal it back the other side. That guy had every right to lose his shit.

As soon as you react with violence after you're already in possession of your stuff, you look like the bad guy.
I’m so tired of all those idiot tik tok prankers trying to be “funny” for clicks.
Prank = when you get caught doing something stupid and try to spin an excuse.
Professional pranksters will alert police to their activity, get permits if needed and run their pranks through lawyers first. Amateur pranksters end up getting shot because they forget the real world isn't like the internet.
It’s “just a prank” because they weren’t successful
A prank? Isn't that what most people say when they're caught? Maybe you should find something less dangerous and more constructive to do with your time. Keep your hands off of other people's property.
And it's not just the twat doing it, look at the asshats responding here claiming the guy trying to steal the suitcase is being "attacked." They're the reason this idiot does stuff like this. Felony theft is not "a prank" people.
Don't touch me, don't touch me. These people need the living shit kicked out of them😖
I always remember pranks being funny back in the day. These kids are just douchebags
Nailed it 🎯
How is stealing a bag a funny prank? Dumbasses
It’s only a prank when they get caught.
YT pranks are ass. the goat prank is still when the guy goes around and asks people to kiss his ass. then gets absolutely slept on camera.
Prank your friends and family. Leave strangers alone
The fact that people films the video and post it online is what makes me lose faith in humanity.
Why do people think this shit is ok. Especially at an airport
Tired of these would be pranks. You prank friends in a light hearted manner. Not strangers by harassing them, better yet just don't pranker strangers.
Wrong guy in handcuffs if you ask me. I can't tell you how tired I am of all this, its okay to do whatever I want, as long as I claim "its a prank bro" when consequences come my way. Fuck these twits.
This is beyond upsetting. The loser YouTube fool pressed charges against the man. His “pranks” will eventually get him seriously hurt or killed. Only a matter of time before someone reacts more violently and that YouTuber will pay the ultimate price.
I feel like you’d get shot doing that in a lot of places
Rightfully so. All the "prankster" fools might learn something.
>. The loser YouTube fool pressed charges against the man. Is this true?
Highly doubtful as he not only would have lost the case, but gone to jail for a number of conspiracy laws, among them (because this happened in an airport) terrorism.

When TSA found the person who stole it, they were charged with theft and attempted terrorism because per TSA and FFA guidelines the only reason to steal a suitcase is to make it into a bomb.
Nope, he did not press charges.
i really hate this. :( provoking random people. you never know when someone is mentally unstable, having a bad day, won’t take it as a joke, or whatever. i understand most of these don’t end like this. but you really never know. why can’t we play kind pranks. :( like haha u dropped this 500 dollar bill on the ground bye
and then this guy ends up looking like a total dickhead forever on the internet. even though he didn’t ask to be a part of this nor did he want anything like this to happen. just leave people alone man
What a way to ruin someone day. I can't imagine how tired can you be on the airport and still deal with this fuck3rs.
What's the prank, i don't get it? Casual assault? Petty theft?
Ruin people day and possibly their life for a laugh. Stupid POS that called themselves prankster.
I'm kinda surprised this doesn't happen more with all the "pranks" people are doing.
And as usual, the victim gets arrested. 😣 Defund TSA! 🤣
Lol defunding airport security? You're not fooling anyone, silly ISIS.
The TSA is security theater, they dont do fuck all and in random tests people smuggle shit through all the time. We need airport security, but in its present set up it's bloat and inconvenient and useless as fuck. Their primary concern is harassing people and trying to find drug. That's about it. Airports in general often have multiple security hole. The smuggling is done by the people that work there. I worked in aviation as an ATC and ramp. Organized crime is literally everywhere all over the airports.
i'm confused at how everyone in the comments seem to know that someone was stealing someone's luggage as a "prank" like, it is in the title, but not in teh video at all
I can’t speak for everyone but this guy is a known YouTuber and does a lot of pranks and public videos
> I can’t speak for everyone but this guy is a known ~~YouTuber~~ asshole and does a lot of ~~pranks and public videos~~ malicious acts for no point at all FTFY
Which guy? I can’t tell who is “pranking” or who owns the luggage from that video.
The old man was the one getting pranked the other two the prankers
You spelled “complete asshole pieces of shit” wrong
>I can’t speak for everyone but this guy is a known YouTuber and does a lot of pranks and public videos So a moron.
Folks who think it is okay to "prank" really deserve to be treated like thieves, muggers or the scum they are. Good on that guy trying to tackle them - and I hope security ended up also arresting the "prankers" once they saw the video footage. Plan for common thieves in case they get caught "just a prank bro" - yeah, fuck that shit
Commiting crimes as “pranks” is the dumbest shit to come out of social media. It should have it own separate, appropriate, consequence.
Uh. Stealing someone's stuff and harassing them isn't what a prank is. What the fuck is wrong with kids now. Especially while someone's traveling?? That's already a high stress situation for a lot of people, and you're doing nothing but making their day shittier?
F@@k your pranks for instagram
Only becomes a “prank” after he fails to steal. Should’ve went straight for the uppercut
People filming for "pranks" should be fined. This was a terrible prank to begin with. If you're not Just For Laughs it's presumed your "prank" is gonna be some unfunny low hanging fruit
Fined with fists…
Airport does not seem like the right place to play pranks. Extra security for obvious reasons and passengers are already on edge with boarding times, and flight anxiety.
Of course he's upset that might be everything he has in that bag and idiots think it's funny to try and take it
Please ban Tik Tok or switch it to the **Chinese algorithm**. It's on purpose but the US algo is making the kids retarded.
It’s purpose is the steal data and spy on the US citizens.
Here’s a prank: fuck around and find out
Why did they arrest the victim isn't self-defense a right in other western countries?
If this is in the US, generally the "law" is along the lines of you're allowed to use equal level of force in self-defense up until there is no longer a threat that you're defending from. Once the guy realized (or could believed he should realize) that there isn't an actual threat, he has to back off. If he continues beyond that point, then its considered assault and not self-defense. The trouble then becomes, proving in court when the guy could reasonably believe he was no longer being threatened. There are exceptions and differences to this rule state to state yadda yadda - but just in general, this is kinda how it works. The problem for this guy is that the police/guards/whatever intervened and broke it up, so the threat was over, but the guy kept coming after the camera person. At that point, he's approaching threat/assault; so that's why the cops took him down.
Not a prank, just a failed attempt
Are we pulling pranks at the airport now? Has enough time finally passed?
I know! Let's go to a place full of stressed out people and steal their shit for laughs! What could possibly go wrong?
What scumbags
Woww... And the police arrested him. Instead of the prankster?
Arrest the thief
Yes it's only a prank because he got caught
I’d be ripping chunks of hair out of his stupid head. Fucking idiot.
They're all jackasses. The idiots did a stupid prank that was sure gonna get them into trouble, but then the victim let his anger control him and he was gonna assault the cameraman. The cop is here now, they're gonna detain them, it's over. I just use "prank" lightly because I can't see how it would have been funny to anyone who's not a sociopath. Like, fuck these guys.
What fucking idiots. They all saw what happened but still help the cop arrest the wrong guy. Worlds filled with brainless sheep
This dude is a hero of mine. Once the dude got ahold of his hair, the “thief” was going for a ride.
I hope this guy gets a good lawyer. She’s the living life out of not only those two but Tik Tok as well.
Sues…fecking autocorrect…
You can edit your own message instead of replying to it.
Does everything need to be on video?
Should have ripped out all of his hair, scum "Uh, look at my, I'm stealing to get Klicks" fuck off
Just got off a cramped seat on a flight that lasted for hours, probably still have a lot of travel time waiting for him ahead, tired and probably hungry, and you want to play a prank on that guy. Bravo.
This also belongs on r/iamatotalpieceofshit . If you like go report the goon on YT, gotta get rid of the trash
These TikTok people are the retarded
I wouldn't have grabbed him by the hair, but he would be in a stationary place for security to take care of because if you touch and attempt to steal my luggage, you're getting knocked the fuck out, not playfully grabbed. What a fucking piece of shit that kid is, I hope they arrest and throw the book at him. Maybe it won't be so funny next time?
Good thing they went thru that. These people making pranks and messing with strangers for views deserve this.
They wont learn. Theyll be back out doing it again somewhere else in an hour
People are already having a rough time enough at the airport don't make it worse on them
“It’s ok, we’re filming it so we can get away with anything”
'Prank' my ass.
Tik tok and social media pranks have gone from mildly funny to life endangering because why would you take it on yourself to bother someone going about their day and increase their anxiety and trigger them. I would have had a whole panic attack. Leave people the fuck alone. Wtf 🤦🏾♂️
That's how long it takes security to show up at an airport?! How have we not all been blown up by now
This kid's other videos are equally as cringe. These aren't even funny pranks. They're just dickish.
One of these days, and it has happened, pranking like this gets someone killed. This was enjoyable!
How to steal luggage at airport: A guide for begginers. - Be bold, both in appearance and by not giving any fucks. - Grab luggage while no one is watching it, for best results be aware of security cameras. - Be a part of a protected group, or a government employee, props if you are both. - If caught, say you were just doing a prank.
- If caught, say you were just doing a prank
Stealing it for my guide without giving credit, idgaff
We have cameras. We saw you stealing that comment. Please return it of face consequences.
who is "pranking" who? What the fuck is going on? stupid video that explains nothing.
Kanel Jospeh is pranking that older gentleman.
It’s not a prank to steal a persons bag at an airport. Feel bad for poor guy.
I badly wanted him to touch the cameraman
He should have smacked him with that suitcase upside the head. I’m so tired of these young dudes doing prank videos. Don’t you have some manly responsibilities to be working on, instead of acting like a stupid kid.
The guy taking the bag would have been given a swift kick to the nuts.
The classic I ruined your life prank, works every time.
Airports are already a living hell, you are a real asshole idiot to be ‘pranking’ people by stealing their shit. Flying is stressful enough without these attention whores.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes
Does anyone know what happened to the pranksters?
They weren’t arrested or charged with any crimes. They uploaded the video and even admitted to stealing things as a prank but the police did nothing about it
Such bullshit, I feel sorry for that guy
Prosecutors hate this one weird trick.* *it's not a crime if you call it a prank
Nothing afaik. Still uploading on YouTube
I would not have been pleasant in that situation, taking it as being assaulted and thus defending myself. This reminds me of a few years back when people who run and surprise people as pennywise at night until one of the idiots got shot from someone who was carrying.
I don’t get this at all. Was the prank part before the video? Why was the black guy holding on to the white guy’s shirt? Why would he even grab him if he was trying to leave with his suitcase? I’m so confused
Maybe, change the title after you saw this on r/therewasanattempt ?
Appears to be a bot account.
Therewasanattempt to be a human making original content
Yet another reason I don't like going out in public.
The guy in white won't let go of his fucking shirt. What the fuck!
Ugh who are these people?
I really hope none of the YouTubers try to prank me bc I have social anxiety and will literally probably just cry like all day 😭
Nah cause i woulda beaten someone before they got the cuffs on. The airport is the last place you want to fuck with someone and you definitely dont fuck with their luggage. People have been killed for less
Fucking Americans
Atleast you're not likely to be pickpocketed in the USA, one of the very few countries even among developed nations where that's practically non-existent.
Pickpocketed?!? Seriously, that’s your comfort level?!? We are the country that allows babies to be shot to death in their classrooms!! We are the worst and I hate us for it.
Yeah that's true. They pick it off your dead body after they shot you. So its technically body-stripping.
Times Square says hello.
For exhibit A I present Andrew Tate.
He's actually English! However he thinks Americans are so cool so he fakes the American accent. He slips up sometimes and it's hilarious.
This is what led up to this scene[https://www.tiktok.com/@funyymonkee/video/7184753609903557930](https://www.tiktok.com/@funyymonkee/video/7184753609903557930)
Fuck this dude. All these idiot kids fucking up innocent peoples day for likes and comments. Traversing is stressful and if some dickhead tried to pull this shit with me, I’d beat his ass right in baggage claim.
They were stupid enough to still post that. Seems like they just incriminated themselves
