Armed robber gets a beating from clerk who confronts him

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.

I HATE being the guy who calls fake, but what?

Pause the fully loaded video. Go to the start and observe the condition of the store in the background. Now scroll to the end of the video and observe that nothing in the store has been harmed or damage in the remotest sense.

This is the tidiest gun-toting fight for life that i have ever seen. If the guy's gun was fake or if he had no intention of using it, he'd have run away surely.

I really don't buy this, personally i think it's fake. But i'm not trying to be annoying, if someone presents me with anything further i'll happily accept this guy's utter cool and suave under life-endangerment.

I just find it hard to accept the climax is them ending up in a very tidy pile on the floor having successfully circumnavigated the precious goods of the shop.

I don't think it's fake. Look at that kid who's attempting to rob the store. He can't be more than 15 years old. I'm guessing he came in pointing something that looked like a fake gun and squeaking his demands with a pimply suburban teen voice. I don't know if I'd call this justice so much as the spanking this little brat needed.

Ah, I get it, you're saying disregard everything but the beginning and the end; the part where all the not-disturbing-stuff happens.

Maybe i worded it poorly - observe nothing has changed; ie. conveniently, no damage has been caused to any of the items in the store during this desperate fight for survival.

Hard to tell if it's real or fake. They make sure to stay in camera range for most of it, that's always helpful. Also I wondered why the gunman didn't seem to track the guy as he walked around the counter, as he was an obvious threat, instead he focused on the woman. Maybe he was a dumb nervous kid or maybe it was staged. It would help if there was more info, like where this supposedly happened so you could look for a news report. Whoever wrote the description for this ("The clerk coolly gets up from his perch near the register") sounds like he writes for John Bunnell, that annoying guy who narrates Wildest Police Chases.

If it's fake at least it's not as badly done as that one video where the guy points a gun at the clerk and the clerk's dog bites his arm, then the clerk hoists the dog over the counter to chase after the guy. The "robber" puts his gun arm across the counter sideways, pointing his gun at the wall, so the dog can easily bite into his forearm. I can't believe anyone wouldn't see that as a fake.

Or maybe this one?

Or maybe when the guy stopped a Bonnie and Clyde team all by himself later that day?

Whatever made you think it was fake?

Convenient coincidence? Also the clerk, you know, might have wanted to not knock down a lot of shit, and that kid didn't seem to hard to take down.
