Wonder why the robber didn’t steal the GOPRO? This whole thing might be a fiction to create a viral video ad for GOPRO.
Looks to me to be a set up....
Criminals aren’t known for their brains.
What is a GoPro?
You put your life in your hands by NOT carrying when you go off trail like that. Where was this?
Did you miss the part about the perps being brought into court?
WATCH: Cyclist films bike-jacking - three in court
http://www.enca.com/south-africa/watch-cyclist-films-bike-jacking-3-courtCAPE TOWN – Three men have appeared briefly in court after they were filmed robbing a cyclist of his mountain bike and cellphone in the Helderberg on Saturday.
Malcolm Fox was cycling on a trail with a GoPro camera strapped to his helmet when an armed man ran towards him and ordered him off his bike.
Fox can be seen climbing off as two more men approach, before making off with the bicycle and phone.
Western Cape police spokesman Andre Traut said two of the men were arrested on Sunday.
“Thorough investigation work led investigators to the suspects with the help of footage recorded with a camera which was mounted on the cyclist’s helmet. The first suspect aged 22 was arrested on Sunday at his residence in Sir Lowry’s Pass and a Luger firearm was seized. The same day another 22 year old suspect was arrested, also in Sir Lowry’s pass.”
My first thoughts as well.
Tunnel vision? He was conducting armed robbery and was locked on his target mental images of routine loot, and where it is kept on the person, and the details of the head of the victim just wasn't registering?
