Won't Somebody Please Stop This Guy Stealing Bikes in New York City?
Filmmaker Casey Neistat explains why he decided to reenact his famous 2005 bike-thieving experiment.
In 2005, pissed that thieves kept taking his bicycles, Casey Neistat of HBO fame decided to see if the average New Yorker would stop him from stealing a bike locked on the street. So armed with a hammer, hacksaw, bolt cutters and a spark-shooting angle grinder, he ripped off his own ride in public all across the city, practically begging to be caught.
It didn't work. One guy even gave pointers on breaking the lock, telling Neistat to use vice grips instead of a hammer and spike. (See that video below, filmed by Casey's brother, Van.)
