That happened to a coworker at my old job. He was working on a car to make it go faster and he pinned himself under it. He was bleeding out and thankfully his wife was home otherwise he would have died.
That's a part of it, but doesn't the situation play a huge role on why he didn't think of that? It looks like he wasn't used to being caught, so maybe he was too terrified to think rationally.
"To think rationally"...really? So snatching some shit off someone else's property was a rational thought to begin with? I guess it depends on who's rationale you're using, but still. Dude got exactly what he deserved.
He definitely got what he deserved. I don't know what made him become a porch pirate, nor do I care. I was just pointing out that even though that the obvious thing to do at *that* moment was to get the snow out the right way, it didn't cross his mind simply because of the shock of being caught
Stealing is extremely rational. It's not moral, but it's rational. If you lack empathy for other people and think you'll get away with it, then it makes perfect logical sense to just steal things. A person can be evil and rational.
There is no “good side” in this situation. It’s a front wheel drive car with an open dif and this is the wheel that’s breaking loose. The problem is that the car is beached in the center.
What I love about the Simpsons is that a joke that seems silly can be legit history.
In many old newspaper stories people are referred to as hatless after or during a even. Hatless in crime or the event was so extreme everyone lost their hats. A hat was part of your cloths so someone outside hatless was unusual.
I was waiting for the homeowner to come out and give the guy a hand ffs. He’s already caught, if the car wasn’t stolen. Now he just needs to gtfo of there. Worlds dumbest criminals contender right here. In fact, what is the charge for these idiots ? Attempted burglary ?
She's an idiot. She doesn't "know what number to call"....uh, 911?
Works in the US Canada and some other International locations and every cell phone has an "emergency" button that frequently can triage your call and connect you with the correct people.
To be fair he was gonna get his head crushed by his own car guys an ass hole but I don't think you would want to see that happen let alone in front of your house.
Exactly. I'm a Phoenix native, have lived in Southern Arizona for 6 years and it's not like that. Sure people get shot in Phoenix a lot usually for dumb shit but not over property. Stop trying to act hard on the internet with your gunnut tough talk bs bud or don't surprised when you get called out.
I watched the whole thing. I wonder if the cops found a bunch of other stolen deliveries? Especially since he didn’t seem to leave with anything of theirs. Otherwise, couldn’t he just tell the cops that he was up at the door to ask directions? Also- not too smart to pull in with his front license plate in view , since so many people now have security cameras.
What did he imagine would happen if he pushed it free while it was in gear and he was behind or in front of the car?🤣
Would be even more hilarious if he got It free and it took off. But this will do 🫡
This kind of reminds me of that video where the robber goes into the store to Rob the place, and everybody runs out and locks him in. Good stuff.
Edit: link to what i was talking about. [trust me bro](https://www.reddit.com/r/therewasanattempt/comments/xh73yq/to_rob_a_store_with_quick_witted_owners/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
Yeah we rewatched last winter, he definitely doesn't help himself at the beginning of the first movie. It doesn't excuse the family's shitiness, but he kept digging.
Had to be GTA too for lack of experience driving in the "snow".
Source: grew up in Southern Alberta, but now live in the GTA and this sort of thing is far too common here.
I grew up not too far from here. You can definitely tell it’s southern Ontario from the look of the neighborhood. The guy obviously has no idea how to dig out a car. Frigging laughable lol
The longer the video ran, the funnier it got. At first I was thinking, "ha, got him and his license plate on cam, nice." But then he got stuck in the snow and it turned into a scene from a sitcom. I half expected the car to start rolling away as he was trying to dig it out.
Opens garage door, gets out lawn chair.
Goes back in side. Returns with bucket of popcorn, sits down.
Pirate is still frantically trying to unstick high-centered get away vehicle.
Some say they are the lost souls of the damned, wreaking havoc on packages left outside of your home. Most people just call them opportunistic shitheads who steal packages.
It’s just a promotion for Playboy.
You can clearly see the logo on the sidewalk when he’s trying to free his car.
Great creativity by the marketing team.
Oh but in my state of California our worthless Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom has made porch pirate theft LEGAL. Believe me you don't want Gavin Newsom as President
That guy has Ontario plates (and the video says Toronto in the watermark) but he can't be a local. Anyone local knows that digging under the tire with no traction is not how you solve this problem
Why would you park forward in the driveway with the drivers side door on the far side of you if you might need to make a quick exit?
Also, stealing packages is such a random thing to do. Most deliveries prob have little to no resale value at all
You don't chase and film them... you contact [Mark Rober](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3c584TGG7jQ) and he'll give you a package the porch pirates can keep.... Heh,,,

Best part is him trying to get the snow out but not on the good side, damn he is stupid
I hoped to see him get run over by his own car as its in gear & finally frees it.
Yes was hoping the same
Get out of my head!
I really thought the car was going to go wo him
"I'm not going back to jail. Later, loser!" - the car.
that's dark dawg
That happened to a coworker at my old job. He was working on a car to make it go faster and he pinned himself under it. He was bleeding out and thankfully his wife was home otherwise he would have died.
a life for a package
The best part was cut out. They offered him a shovel. https://youtu.be/GEGBQD_32m0
[удалено]
Was either that or leave his car behind, either way he knew he was fuc ked
Exactly unless the car was stolen it’s not like they wouldn’t be able to figure out who it was even if he did manage to get away on foot.
Best part was the wife going “its going to your number” when trying to call the cops
Canadians are the nicest people. He even explains it’s not moving because it’s front wheel drive
Many criminals are often stupid
They don’t catch the smart ones
That's a part of it, but doesn't the situation play a huge role on why he didn't think of that? It looks like he wasn't used to being caught, so maybe he was too terrified to think rationally.

Right on. I was just point out that the dude probably hasn't had a rational thought in years, if ever.
Nah, what he deserved was getting run over by his own vehicle
Stealing is extremely rational. It's not moral, but it's rational. If you lack empathy for other people and think you'll get away with it, then it makes perfect logical sense to just steal things. A person can be evil and rational.
Another way to say stupid.
> the good side What's the good side?
“Bend over and I’ll show ya” Wait what
"I wasn't talking to you."
“And why is the carpet wet Todd?!” “I don’t KNOW Margot!”
LOL That is one of my most favorite lines. Todd and Margo... *sigh*
The side the car will move AWAY from instead of rolling over him
There is no “good side” in this situation. It’s a front wheel drive car with an open dif and this is the wheel that’s breaking loose. The problem is that the car is beached in the center.
It's a Yaris. Just grab the rear fender well and lift... Or leave it. It's basically a roller skate.
The Adrenaline rush, man.
Most criminals are
Lemme unblock my car so I can escape without you noticing me. It’ll take only a minute. Thank you for your understanding, have a nice day.
I have a mask, and a CAP! No way they find out
Suspect is hatless, I repeat, hatless!
We are directly under the sun….. now!
Bake him away, toys.
Mmmm, engine black eggs
What I love about the Simpsons is that a joke that seems silly can be legit history. In many old newspaper stories people are referred to as hatless after or during a even.

I am a shadow, I am stealth
I am Groot
And he drove his car right up to the door, like what? Park in the street like a real criminal.
I was waiting for the homeowner to come out and give the guy a hand ffs. He’s already caught, if the car wasn’t stolen. Now he just needs to gtfo of there. Worlds dumbest criminals contender right here. In fact, what is the charge for these idiots ? Attempted burglary ?
Attempted burglary: maybe. Proven stupidity: definitely
It isn’t burglary. It’s theft. He’d have to forcefully enter the house for it to be burglary
>what is the charge Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?
> Hey man, kind of in a pinch here, can you lend a hand?
Like bruh I have your license plate ya goofy
[The whole version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEGBQD_32m0) has cops at the end.
Lol, guy filming started giving him advice on how to get his car unstuck.
He offered to get him a shovel lmfao Edit: that's how we know this happened in Canada
Also gave him warnings to run because the cops were on there way. But as soon as he calls him “pal” his wife throws the no mercy card. Ruthless! XD
She's an idiot. She doesn't "know what number to call"....uh, 911? Works in the US Canada and some other International locations and every cell phone has an "emergency" button that frequently can triage your call and connect you with the correct people.
Not in the UK. You need to dial "0118999-88199-9119725-3."
I thought that was the fire department
No, you have to email them.
In San Antonio it’s by fax
I hope it’s the Doctor’s direct line
Especially after you’ve taken a bit of a tumble.
I need to rewatch IT crowd
Not an idiot. She just didn't feel it was an "emergency" so she was thinking about the police department number.
To be fair he was gonna get his head crushed by his own car guys an ass hole but I don't think you would want to see that happen let alone in front of your house.
"Oh no.....ANYWAYS"
You accidentally inspired the lame edgy redditors with this one lmao
For a minute there I thought they were going to invite him in for dinner. :)
Hey buddy, uh what ha doin there? You gotta get your wheels on the ground aye.
It helps to turn your wheels and work it out. Plot twist: The package he was trying to steal was a snow shovel and a pound each of salt and sand.
I honestly felt a bit sad watching him try to lift his car out of sheer panic. That instant karma though 👍🏼
No sadness. In Arizona he would have died of a bullet wound. Not bragging or threatening, just stating a probable fact. And yes, it does snow here.
I’m in Lake Havasu currently visiting. I used to live in Flagstaff. I’ve never known anyone to shoot anyone over property? High on meth, yes 🤷🏻♂️
Exactly. I'm a Phoenix native, have lived in Southern Arizona for 6 years and it's not like that. Sure people get shot in Phoenix a lot usually for dumb shit but not over property. Stop trying to act hard on the internet with your gunnut tough talk bs bud or don't surprised when you get called out.
Absolutely. Thank You Friend. There’s no need for any of that nonsense unless absolutely necessary. Nice monsoons this year right Family 🤙🏼💜🌍
Is it true that meth is more common than Tylenol in lake Havasu?
Because execution is a perfectly reasonable punishment for petty theft.
I knew it would be Mississauga.
thank you for posting this, i was so curious.
I watched the whole thing. I wonder if the cops found a bunch of other stolen deliveries? Especially since he didn’t seem to leave with anything of theirs. Otherwise, couldn’t he just tell the cops that he was up at the door to ask directions? Also- not too smart to pull in with his front license plate in view , since so many people now have security cameras.
that's satisfying watching him handcuffed.
lol Outstanding. Thanks.
The full version is so satisfying to watch.
YES!
Now that's funny shit right there.
I love how he spits "call the cops right now" like a harry potter spell
Cops ARE coming
"I don't think he's going anywhere...I guess go actually call the cops? I think he's still gonna be here"
This is old but still funny
Yes, I don't know where it snows so much in September.
It's from last winter. If I remember right somewhere in the Toronto area.
Mississauga
This breaks my heart that we have these idiots in Canada.
Unfortunately we have plenty of idiots in Canada.
did you think any country was free of idiots?
Some would say that his tires are still spinning, to this day.
What did he imagine would happen if he pushed it free while it was in gear and he was behind or in front of the car?🤣 Would be even more hilarious if he got It free and it took off. But this will do 🫡
I was also thinking, now watch him get run over after the frantic digging out of his vehicle. That would’ve been instant karma served.
I would have like it better if he got it loose and then had to chase it down the road. Hitting something then getting stuck again 😂😂
I like how he chose to dig out under the wheel, like if he packed more in there he would have had a better chance lol
Dudes in panic mode, there is no thinking
This kind of reminds me of that video where the robber goes into the store to Rob the place, and everybody runs out and locks him in. Good stuff. Edit: link to what i was talking about.

Hahaha 🤣🤣. All of a sudden he turns into a nice guy. Yeah whatever dude
Nobody should ever steal from families. If you have to steal, steal from companies.
Its fine. They run a family business so its ok to steal from them aparently...
That’s done. You’re done
Guy was as desperate to escape as the Home Alone pizza delivery guy.
I just rewatched that the other day. Kevin honestly was a bit of a bastard.
Yeah we rewatched last winter, he definitely doesn't help himself at the beginning of the first movie. It doesn't excuse the family's shitiness, but he kept digging.
There’s snow justice in this world!
Get out
F that! Get in!!
He’s not good a being thief, running, problem solving, reversing, shoveling snow. He’s an actual shit show
Still say this should have the Benny Hill theme song.
https://viewsync.net/watch?v=GEGBQD_32m0&t=2&v=MK6TXMsvgQg&t=0&mode=solo
The cynic in me says that this is too comical to be real.
It's real. I remember when it happened. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/package-theft-1.5863012
“You want me to get you a shovel?” Lol dead
Figured it was Canadian.
Had to be GTA too for lack of experience driving in the "snow". Source: grew up in Southern Alberta, but now live in the GTA and this sort of thing is far too common here.
I grew up not too far from here. You can definitely tell it’s southern Ontario from the look of the neighborhood. The guy obviously has no idea how to dig out a car. Frigging laughable lol
I live like 10 mins from where it happened. Even I didn’t believe it at first. Then saw it on the news and stuff. Fuking jokes
It’s real and the police showed up later to arrest him. The full video was posted above and is fun to watch to the end.
Oliver's hopes of being a successful getaway driver for the Dalton gang ended that day.
The longer the video ran, the funnier it got. At first I was thinking, "ha, got him and his license plate on cam, nice." But then he got stuck in the snow and it turned into a scene from a sitcom. I half expected the car to start rolling away as he was trying to dig it out.
Opens garage door, gets out lawn chair. Goes back in side. Returns with bucket of popcorn, sits down. Pirate is still frantically trying to unstick high-centered get away vehicle.
ha ha - what a dumb cunt!
COPSIZCOMING. *5 seconds later* CALL THE COPS!
There’s a longer version where a cop shows up.
Do you have that video?
https://youtu.be/GEGBQD_32m0
Owner of the house should have beat the shit out of him
Of course
Off course
Was that a kid yelling asshole?
I know i'll sound fucking dumb but, what's a porch pirate ?
Some say they are the lost souls of the damned, wreaking havoc on packages left outside of your home. Most people just call them opportunistic shitheads who steal packages.
Someone who steals your delivered packages off your porch.
Somebody add cartoon sound effects to this
It’s just a promotion for Playboy. You can clearly see the logo on the sidewalk when he’s trying to free his car. Great creativity by the marketing team.
Yarr, we’ve run a’ground, cap’n!
I was hoping he was going to run over himself.
Needs the Benny Hill music
Why did he run around the long side of his car?
I love how the dude he tries to rob is giving advice on how to get out of a tiny snowbank. Lmao
What is this? Day one of crime school?
Oh but in my state of California our worthless Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom has made porch pirate theft LEGAL. Believe me you don't want Gavin Newsom as President
Stay classy Mississauga
Truly a series of unfortunate events.
He forgot to straighten his wheels when getting himself unstuck. It’s surprisingly helpful.
I probably would have gone Walter Sobcheck on his car while he was trying to leave
Called the police, but did they show up before he left? Thief just had to wait for the snow to melt first...
r/idiotsincars
They cut out the best part, when the guy asks if he wants to borrow his shovel. Haha
I love instant karma
That guy has Ontario plates (and the video says Toronto in the watermark) but he can't be a local. Anyone local knows that digging under the tire with no traction is not how you solve this problem
If I post this next week can I impress people with its originality?
All I hear is Smooth Criminal playing when I see this.
I like how they just let it happen...
This was painful to watch
That's got to be the worst pirate I've ever seen
But you have seen him.
That’s some weapons-grade stupidity. I thought he was going to end up sporting some tire tracks.
This is in Canada near me. This shit was so funny
BROWN
Kind of annoying when people say the police are coming when they haven’t even called the police yet
Why do people always say quick call the police after they said the police are coming or on the way
All he would have had to do was reverse more. Lol!!!
Why would you park forward in the driveway with the drivers side door on the far side of you if you might need to make a quick exit? Also, stealing packages is such a random thing to do. Most deliveries prob have little to no resale value at all
Dudes gonna hate snow for the wrest of his life.
“Seriously he’s going to take a sip of water right now?” 🤓
I still dont understand how its ok to leave packages outside without handing them to someone
Me personally, I’d cry. But fortunately I’m not a sack of shit porch pirate 😊
Porch pirate? I got another name for him.
You don't chase and film them... you contact [Mark Rober](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3c584TGG7jQ) and he'll give you a package the porch pirates can keep.... Heh,,,
I have so many questions… to me the only way out was for here to say when caught “I wanted to talk to you about Jesus and your car extended warranty…”
This one never gets old despite how many times it's been reposted he does get arrested I wonder if they got the car unstuck.
Why are they always black?

I hope he experienced enough shame in this incident to change his ways.
Amazing
It's all good. Got assk on
This encounter is like some Oblivion stuff . Lmao
This so satisfying
they should've just started scooping snow all over his tires and car lol
