The picture that typically comes to mind when we think of criminals is not a wheelchair-bound man without arms trying to rob a jewelry store. But a strange 2020 CCTV footage that contradicts such assumptions has gone viral once more on X, the defunct Twitter platform.
With a resolute attitude and, somewhat unexpectedly, a gun between his feet, the limbless man made an unusual and bold attempt to loot the store.
The incredible action was captured on camera as the man wielded a rifle with his foot, displaying an amazing level of agility. Despite not having arms, he made demands that shocked and dismayed the witnesses and employees of the store.

The use of feet to wield a weapon is an unconventional method that adds a layer of peculiarity to the incident. While the attempted robbery did not go unnoticed, the outcome remains unclear from the footage.
As the video circulates on X once again, users are taking to the platform to express their thoughts and concerns. One user wrote, “What a shame to get robbed like this,” and a second responded, “He took “if you can dream it you can achieve it” too seriously and applied it to a life of crime,” and a third user said, “In this case I believe there is no crime committed, There is no arm armed”.
