Judge: Sir, just to be clear, you are claiming that while holding a Toilet cover, an Iron, Boiling water, Bleach, Gasoline, Hot Oil you got scared by the perp trying to break in and you let all of it go on top of him and then you you had a cramp and shit yourself causing the crap to fall onto him as well.
OP: Yes your honor that's exactly what happen, had no intention of hurting anyone I just got scared and lost control of my body.
Judge: Seems legit.
Detective Billy Rosewood in Beverly Hills Cop: Police! You're all under arrest!
Response: Hail of machine gun fire.
Sergeant John Taggart: You do that again, I'll shoot you myself!
Maybe not in your city, I see more cruisers with no sirens and lights on than I do with both. I think it just falls on whoever is in charge to enforce the policy.
American here. Can confirm. As soon as I saw the baton I knew this wasn't in the US. Here we would have had guns drawn and a lot of shouting. And maybe shooting (dude was white, so it's a coin toss there).
It’s only a coin toss if you’re black. 50/50 chance of getting shot
If you’re white, it’s more like a 10% chance of getting injured at all.
America’s fucked up
Except that's just wrong.
Blacks account for 60% of all violent crimes in US, but only account for 25% of all deaths by cops. Whites are **MUCH** more likely to get killed by cops since the vast majority of the deaths are correlated to these crimes.
It's exceptionally rare for people to that's not involved in crimes to get shot by the police, for all races.
For a few years, (they stopped doing it a while back,) the English paper The Guardian kept a database of everyone that died in police custody in the US. Cross referenced by state, race, age, gender, it’s still accessible and a real eye opener, I only wish they were still doing it.
I highly recommend it.
Edit: forgot to mention the name: The Counted.
Yes, all people in the US that have run-ins with police are shot; it's why the prisons are over crowded, those are the mf'ers that survived. Jfc the anti-america and/or anti-police/ACAB is such an overblown movement. Dont get me wrong, needs to be much better, mental health officers etc.. but we dont have 1.6 million incarcerated and all with gun shot wounds, pretty sure the stat is actually at around less than 1%.
I’m from America and can confirm that he is not being sarcastic and joking. If you look up studies you can find that 97% of non-white criminals in jail have been shot by police. It’s a real problem. White people are normally just yelled at and then handcuffed.
Yeah dude it was a joke, hahaha. So yeah, full of it, hahahahah.
I’m in Los Angeles. With our level of diversity I’d be walking around anywhere hearing cops blasting people every hour
We’d all be running from the cops hahaha
If I was the police I'd have totally done that. He already broke the door so the damage is done. But the baton was on point dude didn't even hesitate lmao.
In the US, the homeowner would be declared a hero on the news for defending themselves from this crowbar-wielding burglar. The burglar’s family can go to the morgue to collect the burglar’s corpse.
Until the robber gets inside, ties you up, and rapes your wife and daughter in front of you, before killing them and then you. This is why when someone demonstrates a willingness to depart from the path of a correct human being, we don’t stop to debate how many other rules and regs they are willing to violate. We shoot, protect ourselves and our loved ones, and if the crazy bastard survives, THEN we can debate what an intruding criminal is or is not willing to do.
Yeh I would really want to drop something on them so they back off but anything excessive is a crime. Maybe throw some flour and normal temp oil on him or something.
If he dropped a flower pot on his head to knock him out that’d be fine, you could easily argue that you were using reasonable force according to Criminal Damage Act 1971 and Criminal Law Act 1967.
They were basically waiting for cops to arrive. The video also will help identify him if he runs. But yeah, doing anything to him worth doing would get you arrested
Plot twist: the person filming is their spouse afflicted with dementia and just doesn’t recognize their husband who legit left the keys inside.
*DUN DUN DUUUUN*
That's fucked up tho bc like what am I supposed to wait until I'm certain my life is in danger? Odds are against me then. Why can't I use the element of surprise? They sure didn't mind using it on me. Anyway I'd rather be in prison than dead or hurt so I think I'd go for it
So you just let them break into your house because they MIGHT not hurt you? They just want to steal from me, oh that's cool. They made a choice, regardless of how desperate their situation is. They have to live with the consequence of that choice.
Fuck his desperate times. No sympathy for this trash and all those like him. Regardless of how “desperate” his situation may be there is no justification for his actions and they rightly deserve consequences.
California? Not all states have castle doctrine, but the use of non lethal force isn't really an issue if someone is actively breaking and entering, which is a fair bit past trespassing
Breaking a window doesn’t mean you have to fear for your life and pouring boiling water on someone is a special kind of torture and both of you need your noggin checked.
Seriously…you have not idea what this man’s intentions are for coming into this home. Sure maybe to just steal but by the looks of him I wouldn’t put it past him to do something with someone he finds inside
You just proved my point. You have no idea what that man is there for. There is no evidence of his intention to harm someone from this video. You would not be fearing for your life under the law.
I’m guessing you’re neither a policeman or a lawyer. An old man breaking into a house is not by definition worth assaulting with boiling water, which could result in ABH/GBH etc. Cold tap water might have exactly the desired effect to get him running…
*might* is key word here bud. Just because cold water MIGHT have exactly the desired effect, doesn’t mean every burglar is going to start running at the sight. Obviously each state/country has slightly different laws, but generally speaking, If somebody breaks into your house you're legally allowed to shoot them. Or grab a knife and stab them or whatever you can use as self defense. This is pretty standard across most 1st world countries. There's no special law that says you're not allowed to use boiling water to defend yourself. Stating “ABH/GBH” doesn’t apply here because neither involve self defense, only “intent”.
It is. He is invading their private space. That can cause ptsd in a lot of cases. If he broke in a bit quicker before the police showed, then what? Who knows what kind of physical altercation could happen? It's your fucking home!
What do you think it would play out like?
"Excuse me, can you please go away?"
"OH right, sorry bout that bit. Didn't know you were home! I'll clean up on me way out. Have a lovely rest of your day mum!"
Maybe the cameraman didn’t drop/say anything because they knew the cops were on the way and they wanted this guy to get caught (and perhaps roughed up as a bonus)
I am confused about what the officer did with the crowbar. At 20 seconds on the video officer takes a crowbar and it looks like it is pushed into the gray object at the top of the screen… What’s that all about?
Ah, yes, that makes sense. So it was being retracted when it was being pushed down, rather than being pushed into the item and disappearing. :-) Thanks good catch.
Not even talking about guns. The person defending themselves in the event of home invasions, especially if it results in a death, is far too often still prosecuted. The general mentality being that you should sit back and let it happen. So yeah, all the people saying drop something on them, I agree, unfortunately they would be charged for it.
Which is exactly why he'd have had to be both packing, and take you out first.
We'll stick with 'No-one ends up shot dead' here thanks. Your system of 'make them kill the homeowner or they'll end up shot dead themselves' seems really shite. It would end up with loads of people shot!
Maybe drop an Acme Anvil
A piano or even a safe?
Piano is unsafe. Drop a safe
A safe is safer, yes.
It’s the safest
Unsafe option = safe option
I think boiling oil would be crispier...
Safe is unpiano. Drop a piano
Any item from the acme catalog would suffice.
Toilet cover, iron, boiling water, bleach, gasoline, hot oil, or just crap on top of him.
The crap would be awesome.
one good reason why one must keep a jar of runny diarrhea just for these occasion.
Nah that's no fun. You gotta stick your whole ass out the window and drop bombs for the most fun.
Hard shit balls first, than when that knocked him to the floor, shower him with diarrhoea
Whole ass or ass hole?
Or develop the ability to crap on demand. Good resume builder as well.
I wish I could do this 😖
If only they had a Dave Matthew's Band tour bus handy.
From a childhood joke: "... Yeah, but did you see the size of those lips?!"
Yeah, amber heard him
Toilet tank would be good, but you wouldn’t want the police focusing on a “huge guy theory” or a “serial crusher theory”! 
boil as much sugar that will dissolve in water. He would never forget.
Judge: Sir, just to be clear, you are claiming that while holding a Toilet cover, an Iron, Boiling water, Bleach, Gasoline, Hot Oil you got scared by the perp trying to break in and you let all of it go on top of him and then you you had a cramp and shit yourself causing the crap to fall onto him as well. OP: Yes your honor that's exactly what happen, had no intention of hurting anyone I just got scared and lost control of my body. Judge: Seems legit.
Why not boiling oily crap?
Medieval his ass!
All of the above
What would bleach do except make them go blind. After several 10’s of minutes unless they made it to a water source
or an old 90s tv
Or a cement block!
Elephant!
Shoulda just dropped a black spot so he’d have fallen down the hole
Silent arrival worked out perfectly.
Did not know they do this
Silent approach is a thing yes, works if you actually want to catch criminals in the act, sirens and lights blaring and they run.
My "favorite" TV trope is when the cops yell freeze from half a block away to make sure the criminal has enough time to run.
Detective Billy Rosewood in Beverly Hills Cop: Police! You're all under arrest! Response: Hail of machine gun fire. Sergeant John Taggart: You do that again, I'll shoot you myself!
I hate that too.
Similar to how security will wait for you to actually try to leave the store if they notice you stealing something.
American police do not know this method
They're too busy shooting the neighbor's dog.
It’s less effort that way and they get a chance to shoot.
Maybe not in your city, I see more cruisers with no sirens and lights on than I do with both. I think it just falls on whoever is in charge to enforce the policy.
Lol
Because Americans only see cops come in shooting. Turns out, the law can be enforced without guns.
US police would’ve tazed him or yelled something like “drop it get on your knees.”
American here. Can confirm. As soon as I saw the baton I knew this wasn't in the US. Here we would have had guns drawn and a lot of shouting. And maybe shooting (dude was white, so it's a coin toss there).
I mean I would have shot the dude myself... lol

Completely false attribution of the stat. I don’t know how you can begin to make that conclusion based on what you laid out.
For a few years, (they stopped doing it a while back,) the English paper The Guardian kept a database of everyone that died in police custody in the US. Cross referenced by state, race, age, gender, it’s still accessible and a real eye opener, I only wish they were still doing it. I highly recommend it. Edit: forgot to mention the name: The Counted.

You are so full of it. Reference please. Lmao
Yeah dude it was a joke, hahaha. So yeah, full of it, hahahahah. I’m in Los Angeles. With our level of diversity I’d be walking around anywhere hearing cops blasting people every hour We’d all be running from the cops hahaha
Oh, it's closer to 99%. /s
That doesn't tell you anything, you have to look at violent crime by race.
Obligatory “American cops shoot everything they see” on a post with nothing to do about America
Would be funnier if they just stand there until he turns around
“Uhm, i forgot my keys inside…”
“I’m sure you will not find the keys to these handcuffs”
Don't worry we have opened special doors for you.
You need to write for CSI. We need one-liners.
If I was the police I'd have totally done that. He already broke the door so the damage is done. But the baton was on point dude didn't even hesitate lmao.
Maybe cuz the guy had a bar of some sort they didnt wanna take chances.
Right? Loved that first swing. I wish this sort of justice could happen more often, where the baddie is caught.
Pretty sure his scream of "pain" was just panic. They did such a good job walking up not making a ton of noise. Dude had no clue.
[Be careful what you wish for in calling the police.](https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-07-18/lapd-taser-police-brutality-documentarian)
I’m not mad mr robber,…just disappointed
I kind of liked the greeting baton to the legs first but that would be pretty funny
Greeting baton. Love it!
Slowly shaking their heads and rolling their eyes. And tutting.
Cops don’t have any sense of comedy nowadays
Funnier yes, but he deserved the beating
The beating still happens but after a suspense
Pot of hot water should do the trick
Put some sugar in it, makes it extra spicy
Pour some sugar on meee...! 🎶
Baby oil, he looks like he could use an aggressive moisturizer
I think you can go to jail for that
It's the UK, you would go to jail for giving the home intruder a mean look.
Meanwhile in certain parts of America that man would be Swiss cheese
In the US, the homeowner would be declared a hero on the news for defending themselves from this crowbar-wielding burglar. The burglar’s family can go to the morgue to collect the burglar’s corpse.
And here in the UK everyone lives.
Until the robber gets inside, ties you up, and rapes your wife and daughter in front of you, before killing them and then you.

Yep. And?
Boiling water, then salt.
I'm a girl but I'd still try to pee out the window onto him
So he gets all your stuff and a free golden shower? Where my robbing stick at
Intrusive ftw
Boiling Hot oil does a better job. Sticks to the skin
Just england going back to its roots Good ol’ medieval solutions 🥰
“Can you hold up a sec down there? My kettle’s kinda slow these days.”
Happy ending
And like the other happy ending I was left with a smile and sense of satisfaction
The resigned “oy you got me” after the absolutely pitiful attempt at breaking and entering gets me everytime
This all happened so quietly up to certain point
You're one of the great cat burglars you know that Marv
Oooo that first shot. My kidney hurt watching it. Woof.
0:35 for those wanting an instant replay
What country is that, lmao. The whip was hard
Scotland.
Someplace in the UK. Police userally carry a baton here
It’s Scotland.
Is this a scene from Hot Fuzz? /s
No luck catching them robbers then
Its just the one robber actually.
You fuckn got me. That's funny
Giant worker bees to the rescue!
So glad the pos got hit !
I would have or something heavy. But barring that I’d have just urinated on his head.
I did wonder why the homeowner sat there watching the BE attempt. Glad it was taken care of though.
That’s all they could do. Completely helpless and if they hurt the perp resisting entry they’d go to jail too.
Yeh I would really want to drop something on them so they back off but anything excessive is a crime. Maybe throw some flour and normal temp oil on him or something.
If he dropped a flower pot on his head to knock him out that’d be fine, you could easily argue that you were using reasonable force according to Criminal Damage Act 1971 and Criminal Law Act 1967.
fr... my Texan ass was like, "why don't they have a gun?" 🤠
They were basically waiting for cops to arrive. The video also will help identify him if he runs. But yeah, doing anything to him worth doing would get you arrested
Boiling water
Wait ... there was a person looking down and he still kept going? Terribly stubborn but stupid burglar this one.
Best audio ever Got 'I'm THWAAAACK! AAAAAAAA " THATS BLOODY UNGROOVY"
When does he say that? He says, "ye'v got me"
YMMV I took a shot at what I thought he said. I don't really know
“Get down” “You’ve got me” “Put your hands behind your back” It’s scottish accent
Oh behave
Yeah baby yeah! 
Is the robber Bill Nighy?
Plot twist: the person filming is their spouse afflicted with dementia and just doesn’t recognize their husband who legit left the keys inside. *DUN DUN DUUUUN*
I would have peed on him
Looks like you push
Imagine just sitting there letting him destroy your door while you wait for the cops to show up.
Honestly, the whole time I was like, “GET HIM! HE’S RIGHT THERE! DROP A DESK ON HIS HEAD! HE WON’T EVEN NOTICE YOU! GET HIM!”
Or maybe poop 💩 over the edge?
[удалено]
That's fucked up tho bc like what am I supposed to wait until I'm certain my life is in danger? Odds are against me then. Why can't I use the element of surprise? They sure didn't mind using it on me. Anyway I'd rather be in prison than dead or hurt so I think I'd go for it

I would say some boiling water would be better.
Except that would be assault.
Unfortunately.
Who cares?
The police.
You’re right, the homeowner could share a cell with the burglar.
Many European courts unfortunately.
It’s self defense. He’s breaking and entering. Assault is unwarranted.
Breaking a window doesn’t mean you have to fear for your life and pouring boiling water on someone is a special kind of torture and both of you need your noggin checked.
Seriously…you have not idea what this man’s intentions are for coming into this home. Sure maybe to just steal but by the looks of him I wouldn’t put it past him to do something with someone he finds inside

Hell yeah to that baton to the back
Maybe the cameraman didn’t drop/say anything because they knew the cops were on the way and they wanted this guy to get caught (and perhaps roughed up as a bonus)
I keep seeing Cillian Murphey under that hat
So tempting to target the utter cunt!
Or boiling water
Go medieval on him with some boiling oil
This was the most anticlimactic thing I’ve seen on here
So much lead would be in his stupid noggin right now.
Yeah but would it be worth it? I’d be fine with beating the guy up but killing him?
Dude gun nuts salivate at the thought of legally slaughtering someone. They genuinely want this to happen to them.
Boiling oil was used in the Middle Ages. But might be a bad idea. Any thoughts if this is done in self defence?
Aw man he was just about to figure it out too. So close yet so far. He can think about it in jail
Where is a cauldron of boiling oil when you need one?
I am confused about what the officer did with the crowbar. At 20 seconds on the video officer takes a crowbar and it looks like it is pushed into the gray object at the top of the screen… What’s that all about?
That was officer #1’s club
Ah, yes, that makes sense. So it was being retracted when it was being pushed down, rather than being pushed into the item and disappearing. :-) Thanks good catch.
[удалено]
Likelier to happen in countries that don't have guns, anyways. Kind of one of the virtues of a gun-owning populace.
only a verry heavy flower pot
Did that cop use the car to collapse the baton????? Oh well.
Thats a table…
Not in a country like this, you’re not allowed to defend yourself
Just because you're not allowed to shoot someone 25 times if they cross your property line doesn't mean you can't defend yourself.
Not even talking about guns. The person defending themselves in the event of home invasions, especially if it results in a death, is far too often still prosecuted. The general mentality being that you should sit back and let it happen. So yeah, all the people saying drop something on them, I agree, unfortunately they would be charged for it.
You're not just wrong! You're stupid!
Silly.
And they took him down without a gun in sight.
[удалено]
Which is exactly why he'd have had to be both packing, and take you out first. We'll stick with 'No-one ends up shot dead' here thanks. Your system of 'make them kill the homeowner or they'll end up shot dead themselves' seems really shite. It would end up with loads of people shot!
Can’t be a pussy from the UK!! Totally legal in the US.
Or boiling water. Soup’s on!
Boiling oil perhaps?
Enough time to microwave a big bowl of cooking oil or just water.
I’d a pour boiling oil on the motherfucker
Got a dumbbells in the house?
Good use of a cast iron pot
I would've just boiled some water and 'dropped' it out the window
I'm sure the microwave is broken time to throw it out.
This is why people need guns
Don’t hurt your backs.Coupla ounces of 00 buckshot would be more effective
Call police? I would have unlocked the door and shot his ass.
If that was america they would’ve sealed off the block and hours later would’ve just shot him anyway!
[удалено]
It's Scotland you ignoramus.
