Haha, I love the way he did that "come closer, bring it on" finger flick with his hand. Mugger didn't know what he was getting himself in to.

Robber seems like a druggie. His movements are pretty slow.

Pops should be careful though lot of knife wielders in the UK so those golden gloves won't mean much if he gets one to the jugular. At 77 years old I'm not tussling with a 35 year old Man so just take the appropriate steps to plan ahead don't take cash out the ATM after dark especially in the suburbs.

Yes. After showing the video to my fiance, I made him promise if this ever happens he will just give them the money. Especially here where guns are so prevalent.
