A bizarre attempted robbery at a commercial bank has gone viral after CCTV footage captured an unexpected twist.
The viral video begins with a female bank employee assisting a woman customer when a man in a blue hoodie suddenly approaches. Without hesitation, he brandishes a butcher’s knife and points it at the teller, seemingly demanding compliance. The customer, visibly shaken, steps back in fear.

But instead of panicking, the bank employee does the unthinkable. She bursts into laughter. As if witnessing a comedy skit rather than an armed robbery, she continues to chuckle uncontrollably, leaving the would-be thief visibly confused.

As the scene unfolds, a security guard walks towards the suspect. The robber, busy on a phone call and fixated on the bank employee, fails to react in time. Before he can make a move, another guard swiftly tackles him, and within moments, he is pinned to the ground.
Social media exploded with reactions, with Reddit users speculating that the man deliberately wanted to get arrested.
“This man just wanted to get arrested. Maybe needed a place to sleep and some food,” one user joked.
Another quipped, “She was not impressed with his tool.”
One thing’s for sure: this robber didn’t steal any money, but he certainly stole the internet’s attention.
