See this video?
It looks like the guy didn't get the door open ....

... this time.
This is NOT a singular, weird event, oh no.
It's only the only time it was caught on camera - this is a whole crime wave. 50 (!!) cases since November, just in my corner of Germany. They grabbed 250k Euros worth of stuff thus far. Five grand per job. Doesn't seem worth the risk, but on the other hand, you're not likely to get caught, either.
The video was made in Romania, it's a true pan-European phenomenon, too!
Oddly enough, no casualties thus far, apparently. At least the article didn't mention:

I feel kind of sorry for the low-ranking, but agile and effective mobster who's gotta go out there on that hood or bumper with his bolt-cutters and a positive attitude and do the actual extractions. I get when the carefully assembled team of glamorous cat-burglars and gymnasts does it in a heist movie, but I feel sorry for the dude out there over the pavement for the sake of maybe scoring cases of toothpaste or shoelaces or who knows what just for a night's work.

When I was in my late teens the guys I hung out with sometimes would do crazy shit like that between a Chevelle and a Pontiac wagon. Fucking stupid.
