Summary: guy attaches steel cable to a bike, long enough for people to start riding it away, but then they fall on their face and eat shit.

The prankster just leaves the bike in public and waits for someone to try and steal it.

Is this fair?

If you're too dumb to notice the chain, you deserve to eat shit.

i said stealing is bad

but hes leaving it as basically a booby trap, thats illegal as shit

instead of you know, being a normal fucking person hes setting people up to hurt themselves on purpose

being a thief is a piece of shit, but hes not any better

Legal or not, it seems just to me. If you don't try to steal the bike, you don't faceplant.

If you fail to see a steel chain, well... kind of bringing it on yourself.

But it's all faked anyway, so who cares?

On an unrelated topic, does anyone here want some medium to large sized sharks? I will include their spacious tank free of charge.

Youtube pranksters are some of the biggest shitheads on the internet, but if any thieves get hurt by this, then it's their own dumb fault. The pranksters are still shitheads, but I'm still down to see some thieves eat shit.

booby trapping your house is illegal due to emergency services (paramedics, police) that may in the future need to rush in. theres no reason a cop needs to take a random persons bike

Because something like that isn't a measure done for security. It's a measure done for the sole purpose of injuring someone unnecessarily.

Well say nintendo accidentally made it technically possible to download their games free but you're not really intended to. Shouldn't they fall on their face too?

It is absolutely unnecessary to rig a contraption to injure someone if they try to steal your bike.

Considering that the guy wanted the bike stolen and was okay if it did get taken he can probably get sued if one of the would-be thieves got hurt.

Think of it as Karmic Justice for crimes committed.

Why are you so insistent on protecting criminals?

They wouldn't be getting hurt if they weren't committing a crime!

to be fair, cables are usually attached to bikes to keep them safe, not the person's fault the people didn't see it before trying to steal it. If a thief goes door to door trying to open doors until he gets one that's unlocked, it's not the house owner's fault that the thief couldn't get in when he gets a locked door. Likewise, it's not the bike owner's fault for chaining his bike and the thief not seeing it before trying to take off on it
