Store Clerk Beats Up Armed Robber During Confrontation (VIDEO)

Via Live Leak comes this great video of a store clerk showing no fear as a hooded gunman waves a pistol in his face during an attempted robbery. The clerk coolly gets up from his perch near the register, strolls around the counter, and proceeds to beat up the armed would-be thief and disarm him. This robber had no idea what he was getting into.

Fake.
Set-up.
Staged.

nobody laughs when they have a gun in their face, he must have been able to tell that it was a fake gun.

AH! I love it!

I'm going to point this out the next time some sissy conservative whines about how you "need" a gun to defend yourself.

[Radarman]

That works fine if you are 22 and in good shape. But 22 was years ago and 60 pounds away. Now I'll take my gun over my fists any time.

[jsgaetano]

Tell that to the guy who got beat up.

I must admit that I am rather dubious about the authenticity of this clip. Does anyone have any follow-up as to the resolution of this story?

[pocee]
