Thief Uses Chopsticks To Pick Pocket An iPhone

Okay so this story has nothing to do with anything really.  I just thought it was funny and figured I’d pass it along.

Over in China a man was able to successfully pick pocket a woman on a bicycle.  The fact that he was able to run along side and pick pocket the lady is pretty amazing already but things get even better.  To pull off his little heist he used a pair of chopsticks to reach into the victims pocket and was able to lift her iPhone out without her knowing at all.

Now I DO NOT condone his actions whatsoever but I have to say that’s pretty impressive.  As a pretty capable chopstick user I will say that trying to lift something that heavy with a pair of chopsticks requires some serious skill.

There was a happy ending to this story, well at least for one side.  The pickpocket turned himself in after these pictures surfaced and the phone appears to have been returned to the rightful owner.

Moral of the story, crime doesn’t pay!
