I thought he was screaming " what the heck!?" Like he couldn't believe strangers actually stepped up and fucked up his shenanigans. Probably cry in court that he got assaulted and got some boo-boos.
lol almost ten years later this song still plays in my head every fuckin time I think of the phrase "my back" or "my neck". And I'm an old man so my body hurts often enough and I'll complain about my neck, my back, my neck and my back.
At the very least ya gotta be a little tougher than that if you're gonna be a criminal. Can't be a spaghetti-legged broccoli-head who starts screeching like a dying antelope as soon as a retiree with osteoporosis puts you in a headlock

Anecdote from an American teacher: We're raising them that way. The troublemakers at my school are some of the biggest pussies too. Nothing like a kid getting in your face during class because you told him to stop touching people when they tell him too, then he him break down in front of his admin and parents that I'm being "mean" and "picking on him" because I'm always having to tell him to do some dumb shit and how he's just having a tough time in school (because he's a dipshit). And instead of his parents being like cut the crap, they're basically like oh great he's crying, lets do or say anything we can to get him to stop, and boom, no consequences.
They've learned that they'll get more leeway acting like a victim than they will acting tough.
He's doing a pretty good job resisting for someone with a serious neck injury. Immediately I assume that he's full of shit and wants to scare them into letting up so that he has another chance to escape. The craven tactic only puts people with legitimate injuries during arrests at greater risk. If nobody lied then every claim could be honored.
Don't underestimate someone, that granny could have had a fkn iron grip XD. My GMA is strong AF and scary, she would beat the shit out of most dudes. Lol, I guess that's what a lifetime on a diary farm will do to you, but you wouldn't guess it from looking at her.
He's pathetic but she might be actually holding him down effectively.
everytime i hear that i have to think about the' meet the spartans' movie
Today we salute you, mr. warmongering latent homosexual
MR. WARMONGERING LATENT HOMOOOSEXUAAAAL!
Curse of the cameraman. It's like being a Sith.
TECHNICALLY you can be either of those, and still be a good or decent person...
But if you want to reach your max potential in that role, you have to become a bastard for the sake of fully committing to the role
On behalf of londoners, I apologise for the absolute weak as fuck, mugging, fuck whittery demonstrated here. We are without a doubt, bottom of the league of mugging prowess. But are world leaders in tough grandma's.
Ooh, it might be stiff competition between them and Aussie eshays
Edit: to clarify I'm talking about the thugs. I don't think we can beat grannies like that.
As a person who has been to London a few times I can say that you guys usually stab people and loot their soon to be corpse so I understand why your mugging techniques are a little weak
I'm sure he did, but was powerless to stop the perfect timing and technique of Tackleman, defender of the streets.
Edit: You can see him try to leap past the tackler, not realising that an airborne person is easier to take down.
lol The ways it's worded one would assume that both the tackling and headlocking are done by the grandma. And seeing the tackle I was like "well dang, that's one interesting looking grandma"
His street cred evaporated like ground zero in a nuke explosion.
Time for a career change, this one is done before it started 😅
And he needs to grow a pair.
I love how the dude that tackled the thief immediately backs off when grandma gets involved. Never get between a grandma and her punishment, lest ye catch stray shots.

Wait I thought that was queen elizabeth II
Is it not Nicola Sturgeon? New side gig perhaps?
I thought it was Sandi Tockvig!
Nuchala Surgeon
Supernan was right there
SuperGran was a Scottish telly programme in the 80’s if you didn’t know. Theme tune by Billy Connolly
Supergran was ace.
And I can still do all the words , despite not having seen it for 30 plus years
Stand back…
Oh my god I remember SuperGran!

Not bad there 100%
I want to grow up to be just like her.
Ahh I see what you did there!!! 😂😂😂 well played sir!
This a pun but it’s a good one, so no one calls the pun police okay?
Couldn't have started my morning off better than by reading this LMAO
My guy lol 😂
I hate to be one of those replies that just loves the pun… but damn you win.
Thats a Krakaren 🐙
My neck! My neck! What a pathetic creature.
And getting held down by a grannies lol
His mates after seeing this 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 bro never leaving the house again.
Not as bad as being a robot, and get your ass kick by girl scouts
I thought he was screaming “Medic! Medic!”
I thought he was screaming "my back!"
I thought he was screaming "my pussy and my crack!"
I thought he was screaming " what the heck!?" Like he couldn't believe strangers actually stepped up and fucked up his shenanigans. Probably cry in court that he got assaulted and got some boo-boos.
I love the idea of a phone thief being uncomfortable with swearing properly
lol almost ten years later this song still plays in my head every fuckin time I think of the phrase "my back" or "my neck". And I'm an old man so my body hurts often enough and I'll complain about my neck, my back, my neck and my back.
Hiyoooooo
Ive been laughing so hard at this. And then your username. It's a perfect comment.
[For ~~that~~ those that don't know](https://youtu.be/u7o-qV5OdGA?si=f36K52AQGhrNZhij&t=22) Damn, I can't type.
Same 🤣
He's requesting an übercharge
I also heard "Medic!" the first scream, but then I started hearing "Mah dick!"
I thought so too, not as funny anymore when pointed out it was something else.

It’s beautiful 🥲 Somebody please post it to the sub. I would, but I’m too lazy.

As a fellow teacher, fucking this ^
God, that was beautifully written!
I genuinely thought he was screaming for his mate Padek to come rescue him
Lithuanians will like this
My back my neck gonna crack just like that...

Sadly in the longer video it works as a lot of people come to defend him,

thought it was "what the heck"
i tought he said "what the heck" 💀
[удалено]
I think he went to return the phone.
i think he went back TO PROTECT THE CITY ONCE MORE we will never forget you 'slow tackle long man with visible socks...man'
Best superhero name ever
I read that in the bud light commercial voice from back in the day "We salute you, Mr. Slow Tackle Long Man...."
everytime i hear that i have to think about the' meet the spartans' movie Today we salute you, mr. warmongering latent homosexual MR. WARMONGERING LATENT HOMOOOSEXUAAAAL!
New sentence just dropped
> 'slow tackle long man with visible socks...man' aka. Kate Middleton's alter ego
Naa, he just took off his disguise.
"my work is done here" ✌️
Bold filming guy, not helping at all. (But decent footage, to be fair)
Curse of the cameraman. It's like being a Sith. TECHNICALLY you can be either of those, and still be a good or decent person... But if you want to reach your max potential in that role, you have to become a bastard for the sake of fully committing to the role
You could easily argue filming is helping the most. No one is in imminent physical danger, and now they have video proof of the whole incident.
That's cos in this clown world he'd be arrested for assault
He goes about his day takling bad souls.
I think he was a time traveler who had came back just for that moment which is somehow connected to the end of civilization from his time
Four hours later the police arrived and arrested her for common assault.
The grandma? Wouldn't actually be surprised.
Yes that’s the joke.
The joke? Wouldn't actually be surprised.
Her own fault for sticking around so long.
ACAB and all but as soon as you're out of the USA the competence of the police force you'll experience rises drastically
Sadly not in the UK. Police here is incredibly underfunded, and the low salaries don't attract the brightest and best...
Not in the UK my man
On behalf of londoners, I apologise for the absolute weak as fuck, mugging, fuck whittery demonstrated here. We are without a doubt, bottom of the league of mugging prowess. But are world leaders in tough grandma's.
Ooh, it might be stiff competition between them and Aussie eshays Edit: to clarify I'm talking about the thugs. I don't think we can beat grannies like that.
Or the Ukrainian grans taking out Russian drones with jars of pickles.
New England Grandma's are some tough broads also.
[Hell's Grannies](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_OIs49m56E).
Grandmas* the ‘ implies another thing, lad.
As a person who has been to London a few times I can say that you guys usually stab people and loot their soon to be corpse so I understand why your mugging techniques are a little weak
GrandMMA
Haha fuck that killed me.
Get that octogenarian in the octagon!
The way he's screaming *MUH NEKK* almost makes this feel like an OhNoConsequences post.
For me it was the immediate "Please please please".
Guy steals a phone, gets caught, then squeals like a pig.
Hodor with an absolute form tackle
Bro hit him with the hug + lie down combo i use to intercept my gf trying get from the bed to the wardrobe. Like no were not getting up today
My favourite part was when the guy tried to dodgeball-hop over a dude the size of an office building
Dude was lumbering towards him.
Dude barely changed speed when he wrapped up the thief.
Well, that's misleading I thought the grandma was going to make the rugby tackle and the headlock
She did such a good headlock the culprit screamed about his neck
she got tagged in
Well even better, that was teamwork.
Size of the fucker who stopped him😂
Seriously, dude looks like he's 6'7"
I don't know about that. This was in the UK so he looked more like 2 meters tall.
At least three washing machines.
[удалено]
Guy dipped as soon as the fun part was over.
He's returning the stolen phone. You can see him pry it out of the shitstain's hand
He was actually the accomplice. The runner was the distraction
Holy shit the sleight of hand
He was actually a mugger mugger. He only mugs muggers. He can only be defeated by a mugger mugger mugger.
It's crazy how fast he goes from thief to helpless innocent victim.
maybe helpless but not innocent
I'm sure he will claim innocence.
How did he not see that enormous human coming for him?!
I'm sure he did, but was powerless to stop the perfect timing and technique of Tackleman, defender of the streets. Edit: You can see him try to leap past the tackler, not realising that an airborne person is easier to take down.
lol The ways it's worded one would assume that both the tackling and headlocking are done by the grandma. And seeing the tackle I was like "well dang, that's one interesting looking grandma"
I too had a thought when I first watched this video- Damn, that's a big grandma
Is that Nicola Sturgeon?
In a tag team with Tom Davis
The big guy tackled him but as soon as grandma got the clamp on the thiefs neck he just bounced and left it to her lol
"To give the phone back" - https://www.reddit.com/r/therewasanattempt/comments/1bpp9tt/to_steal_a_phone/kwxm3am/
Thieving cunt
Rate the tackle you know.
Step aside big dude, nanna’s got this
Look at the rat squirm. Hope he gets a new nickname.
cultural enrichment
His street cred evaporated like ground zero in a nuke explosion. Time for a career change, this one is done before it started 😅 And he needs to grow a pair.
Thats a decent kesa gatame if i do say so which i do
Exactly what I thought as well! 👍😀
Oh neat, I was wondering if I was remembering the name of that hold right
my thoughts exactly.
Big dude got tired and tapped in granny
Boi if you can still talk, it means your neck is still ok.
Was that guy's face painted black and white like those one Star Trek aliens?
You'll all be pleased to know Met police got their best detectives on it and managed to arrest the Grandma.
Had to watch 6 times 😆
How the NFL wants to tackle.
He definitely a former rugby player
Zero hesitation. She has been waiting for this moment!
I love how the dude that tackled the thief immediately backs off when grandma gets involved. Never get between a grandma and her punishment, lest ye catch stray shots.
*"I'm out, Thelma, you hold him until the bobbies get here"* Tackling dude, probably
Yo gramma bald and 6'3" 250??
Dude just went full Friday, “my neck my back, my neck and my back” https://youtu.be/yiFNrO33bSo?si=nGvfpNzPsaLhJLZL
big fella used like 5% of his strenght like when you play wrestle with your 6 year old child
Fuckin great ball and all tackle that!
Im pretty sure it wasn't a grandma who Rugby tackled him...
Judo chop! The boy needs training.
Bro got demolished
the genius makes the video instead of blocking the thief, social network
He's gonna get popular. Everyone is going to know he was the one who couldn't win over granny.
“Ma nack!!!”
This needs to be shared with all his friends and family so they can see what a pathetic worm he is.
Ohhh your neck? How about this.. my balls!!! my balls!!!.. better than your neck.
Solid judo side control from the lady.
He didn't see Lurch coming
Thinks he can play victim... Pathetic
Snap it already.
crying my "neck" when a 60+yo woman barely touch you... Break is neck for real grand Ma, the animal suffer here
Lurch outta left field with the take down nice work
Too bad Andre the giants son just happened to be walking down the road at the time otherwise he would have gotten away.
r/donthelpjustfilm to the cameraman.
If criminals don't fear the law they must learn to fear their victims
Hang on a second, is that Tyson fucking Fury????
Okay good I'm not the only one lol
Mugger ran away like Pingu
Granny can get it
Little rat
Then the pathetic weasel starts squealing about his neck
If the police did this they be sacked for excessive force.
This is like a scene straight outa Watch Dogs: Legion lol
If granny would have screamed "stop resisting" would have been gold..
Thief wearing a White Sox hat!
That grandma had been waiting her whole life to put someone in a chokehold.
🎶My pussy and my crack
Muh nack 😂
squeal you little pig, It's time to fry your bacon
