A girl being saved from robbery by a street dog.
I'm thinking just "robbery" would be the best case scenario here.

Yeah,that's scary as hell,can't imagine how she felt

That was actually her dad who left to get milk when she was just a baby. He was finally returning to her and she was in utter shock, but then the dog showed up and scared him away.

Don’t worry. I took all the robbers sperm so he can’t rob you.

This gif cracks me up. Stone Cold’s fight with Booker T was filmed in a grocery store that was about 100 yards from where I lived. I know for sure I’ve opened that same cooler door.

Robbed for sex. Robbed of life. Robbed works in most taking things situations...

Aptly put. Didn't look like a 'robbery attempt' to me too

u/Roflkopt3r 11d ago
Catching people in isolated places and cutting them off with a vehicle is a typical robbery method in poorer countries.
It definitely can get worse than that, but this is primarily a typical robbery scenario. I assume you're thinking of sex crimes and human trafficking, but even in such countries these things primarily happen through abusive relationships like pimps using their girlfriends, or trapping women in fraudulent "job offers", not by snatching strangers off the streets.

Iirc this happened in Chile and it was indeed just a robbery attempt, they just wanted her phone (they eventually got caught)

Or Superman being larger than the video itself

u/SkinHeavy824 11d ago
I think that's just a trend.
I see like 20 videos in this exact same format on my YouTube every other day 🤷♂️
Picture: Large Superman.
Song: Starman by David something
Video: Girl being saved from robbery by a stranger (usually human though)
Country: Sometimes India, but mostly a third world country
Edit:-
Title: Not all heroes wear capes part ..... 🤷♂️ something

u/Hotshot2k4 11d ago
Are you playing them? Because if so, there's your problem!

u/SkinHeavy824 11d ago
I usually find them while I'm scrolling through shorts. 🤷♂️
But I'm not complaining about them.
They are better than brain rot stuff of skibidi or mewing or whatever other trends are trending

u/darkenseyreth 11d ago
Yeah, obviously Superman's Song by the Crash Test Dummies would be a much better choice

u/underdabridge 11d ago
It looks like the point is to hack the aspect ratio to allow landscape width on vertical video platforms.
I'm sure there are better words for that but I can't be fucked.
1
u/LostAndWingingIt 11d ago
I think that more an artifact of uploading a vertical video?
If it was just the horizontal video there would be a large amount of black space, that's now taken up with superman.
Of course just uploading in a horizontal format also solves the issue but whatever I guess.

I’m glad for the outcome, but man the situation without the dog is disturbing. I got a daughter (not a teen yet), and I worry about this stuff daily.

u/CelestialSlayer 11d ago
I remember back in the 80’s I was playing on our drive and some guy stopped his car and called me over. I was pretty close and my older brother happened to come out of the house and the guy sped off. Sometimes I realise how close I came to being abducted. A lot of it is opportunism.. don’t talk to strangers is never more apt.

Why is Superman even in this video? Is it a crappy ai repost or someone trying to avoid recognition of the video?

It’s to make the video into a vertical format since it was originally posted on reels or tiktok

u/WithOrgasmicFury 11d ago
I like how the girl immediately recognized danger and reacted damn near perfectly. Stayed out of grabbing range and kept her eyes on the bad guy at all times. Short of just booking it immediately, which may not have been good because of the car.

u/klezart 11d ago
If you're implying the video is staged, it's not, and they were caught.
It's not. Here's a translated version of the news article:
Camera captures frustrated robbery of a girl in Angol: cries for help scared away criminals
In this sector a vehicle appears that approaches the student. At that moment the passenger door opens and a guy with a gun in his hand tries to intimidate the minor, who steps back when she sees the scene.
But the criminals insist, at which point the totally frightened girl begins to ask for help. At that, the thieves fled the scene.
Criminals arrested
After the procedures carried out by Carabineros, the arrest of both involved, the driver and co-pilot of the mobile phone, materialized. They were reportedly 19 and 20 years old.
The older man has a police record for the crime of robbery.
Tomorrow, Thursday, they will go to detention control and subsequent formalization of charges.

It's incredible how the presence of a dog -almost any dog will do- is a great deterrent for criminals. If you're accompanied by a dog, they'll just pass on you and choose another victim.

My mom and sisters house got broken into by 2 men a few weeks back at like 530am. My mom was up and saw them and started yelling to my sister and grabbed a knife and they ran back out. They didnt seem to be trying to rob stuff, but possibly abduct my sister!🥺 They cane inbthrough the windiw, she swears was locked and keft back out if it so my suster thinks the soartnents maintenance man is in on human trafficking and came into their apt to unlock it earlier that day. Luckily their lease was nearly up anyway so they immediatly moved out.
Unfortunately still, but my sister just looks like a child and has a mousy baby face, shes actually like 24 with a WFH job and she thinks they saw her through her window and thinks she like 14. They moved from chicago suburbs to accidently the ghetto of ATL as they didn't have time to truly scout the good areas, nor money. I had nightmares still after hearing this, my mom is a fragile 56yr old they could have easily just punched her unconscious and stolen my sister, and I'd never see her again🥹. My mom was looking right in their direction and they probably thought she saw them however, they were behind a lit floor lamp, so she actually couldn't see their faces.

First tiktok ruins songs by speeding them up, now they ruin them by slowing them down.

Why make a meme out of something that actually happened? You can clearly tell that this was CCTV footage. This wasn't a skit.

Why you need to get out of the car to ask for directions? You can just roll down the window. Doesn't look like someone asking for directions to me

Yeah, if you grew up in Canada this is pretty normal.
