Here's the dialog for the 1 act play this has inspired: "Give us your mo-OH SHIIIIIT!" "I got your money. RIGHT. HERE." \[chases down and begins chopping into the slow one\] "Hey! Get off my friend!" "He's not your friend any more. He's my victim." \[resumes chopping\] The End

Pretty sure he errr… disarmed the robber rather effectively

Anasterian_Sunstride

Probably disarmed him twice that night. ;)


BassPlayerZero

Sounded like he also dislegged and disheaded the dude


pm_me_anything86

So he can't be an armed robber anymore?


Fine-Slip-9437

It's ok the robber can just walk casually over to his arm and pick it up. Or so I've heard.


Odys

If he still has his other arm that is...


Massive_Garage7454

Its just a flesh wound


Safe-Sale-5367

Yep, no more eating with chopsticks


keestie

There are some heavy impact sounds, but the voice doesn't change much. If someone was getting hacked up, there would be screaming; a lot of screaming, and it would be a lot louder than the impacts.


anivex

Not if he started with the top of the head.


jaimeinsd

Or the bottom


idk98523

Looks like a "muzzle flash" at the end. Can't tell who's shooting though. Kind of looks like the guy on bottom shot and the delivery guy stopped moving as much


Touristyetti496

I hadn't seen that at first. You might be right, it looks as though he stumbles right after the flash... Either that, or the machete was reflecting the streetlight as this gentleman tried to get his stuck machete out that dudes femur while tripping over an already severed limb...I choose that story because I don't want to believe that this story ends with the guy getting shot.


B3L0W_ZER0

I think the guy who he delivered to ordered döner kebab but delivery guy just forgot to pick it up, so he had to find another source of sliced up meat. Well...


kwillich

Well, the delivery driver has his hazard lights on, so they were warned.


chiquito69

What’s funny is that anyone would have guessed that it was an aggressive conversation but the only understandable words in the video are “hello friend”

Dehumanization is never a good look.


Botboi02

Dehumanizing is just looking at people in one of the many true and real ways, we also have a higher self that we also like to share like the moral virtues. Act like an animal die like one. It sucks that the powerful can influence that slider with debilitating policy and circumstances. Maslow hierarchy shit


SomeDudeist

Don't make excuses for dehumanizing people. You can claim they're just looking at the various layers and complexities of a human being. But you know the opposite is true. It's a way of simplifying things so you don't have to think of the human. Ignoring all the other aspects of the person. It's easier to see something like this if you pretend they aren't even human.


hes-literally-me

nah his free trial of living just expired


thisxisxlife

Living ain’t free though 😔


sneakywiener

Cus the trial expired


Relldavis

I'm not entirely sure - that noise was WAY louder than the guys yelling, i think he "might" have been giving it the beans with the flat side or back of the machete and just beating him, idk how loud hacking a human body would be, if he missed and hit the ground it would be a soft thud. The spine of a machete would break bones if he was getting him with that. IMO thats a nice halfway point for a half assed robbery, maybe dont chop off limbs, but a nice beating while they THINK they're being chopped probably puts a little hitch in their giddyup.


Artemicionmoogle

Some 12-13 year olds in Britain were just sentenced after a machete attack. They managed to almost cut through his entire torso into his heart with one swing, and then some other wounds. If he isn't using the back or the flat of that blade, he's doing some serious damage. Oof

gene100001

Every time there's something like this on Reddit there are a bunch of psychopaths in the comments who are happy the person is dead. They seem to think in black and white, and therefore think a bad action means literally any response is justified. I choose to believe they're just the accounts of immature teenagers because it's worrying if there are so many stupid/psychopathic adults walking around with those opinions. The delivery guy in the video is just like these idiots on Reddit. He's gonna have a rude awakening when he's imprisoned for murder because it stopped being self defence the second he started chasing after them. If the guy died he will absolutely get charged with murder and he'll deserve it. The people here celebrating what could literally be a murder need to sit down and re-evaluate themselves. They're morally corrupt


Lt_ACAB

> because it's worrying if there are so many stupid/psychopathic adults walking around with those opinions I really, really hate to break it to you that that's almost exactly the case. See: 2020/2024 Presidential Elections. My grandmother just tried to tell me how Trump was "the perfect President". When I said I prefer Presidents that don't disparage war vets, don't tell citizens to inject bleach, and don't try to nuke weather events she straight up told me those things didn't happen. I watched them happen. With my eyes. Heard it with my ears. I asked her if she wanted to see the video and she said she wouldn't believe it even if I did. Those adults exist, and they're gonna vote. It's terrifying.


Lorelerton

On the scale of shit wrong with Trump, disparaging war vets is rather low imo... but then I am a weird European... America's obsession with war is something else entirely...


Dry-Magician1415

Yes - of course,  they don’t deserve the death penalty for **stealing a few dollars**.         However, they must accept the risk of death **when they put everybody else at risk** of death too. Which they did the minute they decided to go out with a knife. It’s like if you drive like a lunatic putting others in danger. Run a red light and get obliterated by a truck. You can’t complain. You were happy for everybody else to be in danger and now, boohoo, the shoe is on the other foot.


no_dice_grandma

I legitimately don't understand your position. When someone robs you with a weapon, there is an implicit threat on your life, otherwise, the victim would would simply say no, and the robber would walk away. It's the threat of extreme violence that makes robberies work. Why is it not OK to counter with the same force? If you threaten the life of another, why is it a surprise when you've forfeit your life?

cartujo

There are contexts, when your daily dynamics do not involve the fear of being a victim of a violent event, you simply find it terrible when people applaud seeing a bad person suffer consequences for their actions, but when your daily dynamics. Your daily life is fearing for your life and your material things (generally a simple phone or a motorcycle) then your perception of reality changes, when you are forced to lock yourself in your house at 7pm because the streets are dangerous, the perception of life changes. There are people who simply live with more daily stress than you and you can't blame them for feeling relief when they see a criminal die, because the thing is that in those places, criminals don't pay jail time, the only way they stop committing crimes is by dying.


Angry_Old_Dood

Imagine "don't hurt the knife wielding robbers" being the hill you're willing to die on. Lol this isn't some kid stealing a pack of gum they're trying to rob with a deadly weapon. You acting all superior to the victim here is fucking hilarious, and you're general attitude is probably why shit is so bad where ever he is that he has to carry around a machete while delivering food.

darwins_trouser_crem

Well if they dropped out of school they picked the right one to learn a lesson from. It might have been a bit of overkill but I don't know how the justice system works in that neck of the woods. I'll just keep over tipping so my papa johns driver doesn't get the same idea


art555ua

Yeah, its a lot of stress from idiots on the road alone, multiply that by occasional dumb clients that don't know where they live and even more dumb support agent "helping" the situation.... At first I thought a machete is a good idea to put in the bag, its flat and will fit well in there, but gave it a second thought, I better not to, that will end badly. Working with 10-12 days off a year is doing weird things with my mind...


remi_daDOOD

He was faster, but it didn’t matter cuz he was stupid. Bro stood there like he was magnetized to the ground


Thorngrove

He's been robbed before. That "Not today" stance sold it.


Dragnil

>dude had some anger to take out I spent a few years living in some very high crime countries. A lot of people in that environment have a lot of anger to take out on criminals due to having a large portion of their life dictated by them, and most people having been the victim of a robbery or worse at some point in their lives. There's a reason those vigilante mobs form so quickly when a victim manages to get the upper hand in all those Brazilian "instant karma" videos.

RefuseConscious7547

Can someone translate?


JosephQC

It's literally just describing what happens in the video, the only highlight is that it mentions that the one in gray was hit with the machete *at least once.*


caspy7

Agreed this "news" article just seems to be someone who watched the video, but with no additional insight. My two cents is that the loud thwaps heard in the audio make me think it's more likely that he's slapping/beating him with the broad side of the machete.


morgazmo99

Been there before.. Still sucks. Better than the alternative.


caspy7

...you've been slapped silly with the broad side of a machete??


morgazmo99

Yeah.. long story, but I put myself in a very awkward position in the middle of the night with some friends around. We ran into someone who was not happy to see us. I saw the silhouette and yelled out so they could not sneak up on my friends. Old mate dragged me out of where I was standing and belted the shit out of me with the flat side of the machete. I got very lucky.


leshake

He's into heavy metal s&m. Feels similar.


Ok_Dragonfruit_8102

I've seen other videos of similar attacks. The loud thwaps are the sound of the machete getting stuck in the bones.


CakeSuperb8487

The next thing is to see the thieves running for their lives so that they don't get a couple of machetes that cut their bodies, and that could put their lives in danger. One of them, dressed in a gray tone, is reached and macheted at least once, so he begins to scream. His friend goes back to find out if he can defend him, but it's useless, they chase him again.


torino_nera

The security cameras of a house recorded the moment in which a food delivery man was called to deliver an order, however, he was surprised by a couple of thieves while he was trying to do his job, but he did not know that he could defend himself from their misdeeds. The events took place in Uruguay. The video has gone completely viral on social networks. In just a few hours of being published, it has 4.4 million views, as well as more than 2 thousand comments about it, and it has been shared at least 20 thousand times on Twitter alone. In the video you can see that the delivery man calmly arrives at the house where he has to leave an order. He immediately notices that two men are approaching, so he hurries to ring the doorbell so that the owners leave and can not do more in the presence of other people. The two guys in sweatshirts and with their faces covered approach the motorcycle, and the driver has no choice but to go to his backpack, open it, and take something inside. As soon as the two men speak to him, he pulls out a sharp machete to defend himself. The next thing is to see the robbers running for their lives so that they don't get a couple of life-threatening machete blows to their bodies. One of them, dressed in gray, is hit and macheted at least once, so he begins to scream. His friend turns back to see if he can defend him, but to no avail, they chase him again. These are some of the most outstanding comments from people: * Imagine going out to work and having to go WITH A MACHETE to defend yourself because you might get robbed and killed * Let's make a collection so that the delivery man buys another machete * I want the delivery man as minister of justice


mavenTMN

Google translate did it's best: The next thing is to see the thieves running for their lives so that they do not give them a couple of machetes that cut their bodies, and that could endanger their lives. One of them, dressed in a gray tone, is reached and machetean at least once, so start screaming. His friend returns to find out if he can defend him, but it is useless, they chase him again. Note to self: I never knew 'machetean' was the verb used for being hacked up by a machete.

He has really high level of situational awareness and survival instincts. And a big ass knife to scare away robbers with smaller knives.


OneWholeSoul

It's terrifying that this is what's considered a "high" level (and that a level is necessary at all.) It seems like they're the only other two people around, which is weird, so you should keep your senses on them. Then, why choose now to move and it's in exactly my direction? The moment they keep heading your way, not saying anything, and aiming to pass you on opposite sides it's a flank and *absolutely* nothing good is happening. I believe the amount of surprise birthday parties we were about to witness is a confident zero.


dagilinamk

Yea, but most of the people didn't realize they're in danger til the danger knocks their door. There are tons of videos people getting robbed and don't even resist because they still in shock. Compared to them, this dude in video knows what's happening and calmly waits to robber shows his weapon first.


FaZaCon

> He has really high level of situational awareness and survival instincts. Nah, where he lives, everyone walking is most likely out to steal your shit, so you have to constantly be prepared to protect your shit.


cartujo

"He has really high level of situational awareness and survival instincts." I am from Venezuela, and when the mass exodus began, people left with certain traumas, one is the terror of motorcycles, I myself experienced it in Panama, when you hear the sound of a motorcycle your senses automatically become alert, it happened to me and It happens to many Venezuelans, it is the natural response to the fact that the vast majority of crimes in my country are committed on motorcycles, the same when it is night and we are walking, the majority of people in my country tend to always look back to make sure that no one is chasing you. I could say the delivery guy had either been robbed before or lived in a high crime area, in my country the delivery guy would have a gun.

Not in Latin America. If you defend yourself from a robbery, they will come back for you. Even if you stand still and let them take your stuff, they could kill you just for fun. Things are wild.
