dont worry about that you wont see anyhing its like winning the lottery happens to someone if tis as bad as they say police would be every where waiting for these fools on their little scooters ..i have lived there for 25 years believe me its not like this...
@@thecatalunya1 Sure. It's not like this. It's not like some guy gets stabbed out on the street for absolutely no reason. And some dude just talking with his girlfriend gets bricks and sticks thrown at him for literally no reason.
Those of you who said served those people that were actually victims here right are exactly what’s wrong with humanity and society. This just happened to me earlier today. I’m a solo traveler, first time traveling to London knowing no one else. I rely on phone to know if I was heading to the right direction of my destination (because I don’t travel on luxury using taxi or Uber and I enjoy walking to experience as many different places as possible) and recommendations for different things based on my current location. Not everyone that is looking at their phone is scrolling social media. I ran multiple streets to chase the criminal on the bike while I was crying because I don’t have a backup of my phone. Because of this I actually booked a flight to go back the day after and canceled the rest of my trip because I don’t feel safe in London anymore. It was bright day light and I was just walking on the street not even crossing the road. I swear I’ll never visit London anymore. I thought I had to worry more in Paris but turned out London was the one. Before this, I thought if I ever want to move out of the US I might do London, now this city will forever be the worst place that I’ve ever been.
I’m sorry you experienced this. Hope you are not hurt by the comments that accused you of not paying enough attention. You’re not the one to be blamed. We could’ve traveled along the streets feeling safe and free if the uk government could do something actually helpful to prevent these crimes, considering there are many other countries being able to achieve this, and people there feel absolutely safe to look for directions on their phones.
@@stopthecap4317 No we shouldn’t have this issue in the first place just because people want to ride the “diversity is our strength” gravy boat. Things like this just didn’t happen in London before we imported the worlds crap and scum. The police should be doing their job instead of arresting people for mean tweets
I'm not sure why anybody gives a rat's backside about the safety of the men on the mopeds when other people's lives are in danger. It's a misplaced sentiment in my view.
There are several MPs in this country whose sympathies lie more with the thieves and criminals than an honest " British " way of life.These creatures will ameliorate and modify any laws passed that they consider too harsh and severe usually against their constituents. Together with a greedy money grubbing legal industry ( I refuse to label these parasites with the name " profession " ) they have denuded the Police of most of their capacity for a freedom of action.The end result is a Police force that is nearly paralysed with fear to do their jobs and a society that is scared , and worried about crime and their personal safety especially the older people .How do you fix this problem? I think public hangings of miscreants is rather harsh, ( lol ) but we could start with curbing the activities of the legal filth and give the Police back their facility to do their job , unencumbered with the fear of spurious,specious criticism of their actions.
@@djangorheinhardt That's just complete nonsense. You clearly are living in a fantasy world. Yes, there is a problem with crime, but look at actual research done on punishment vs prevention vs recividism, and you'll see that what you're saying has zero effect on crime. In Malaysia, people get the death penalty for selling drugs. Does that mean there's no drug trade? Hell no! Actually, because of the high risk, the drug prices are WAY higher, dealers make way more money, they are pushed further underground, and the police have an even harder time dealing with the problem.
@@vincenzomancuso1821 yeah, no, people don't get the death penalty for phone theft. And as they pointed out, America has the biggest prison population in the world, with the longest sentences, and still has some of the worst crime rates in the world.

Had my phone stolen yesterday, moped mounted the pavement to get my phone as I glanced to check where my uber was. I used to live in UK but moved to Canada Thankfully because there are no values here anymore, did not even bother reporting it to the police either
Never think to go to brazil, u probably would end up with only your under clothes. Canada and UK ITS SO SAFE to live..."don't complain with a full stomach".
Here’s some tips to prevent this happening to you: Phone Settings (I have an iPhone so other users will have to find equivalent settings) 1. Require passcode/FaceID before turning on Airplane mode - When thieves snatch your phone, they’ll immediately put it on Airplane mode to stop you from tracking it. 2. Enable ‘Find My iPhone’ on iCloud - If your phone is snatched, you can track, mark as lost or stolen and erase the phone remotely. DO NOT EVER remove you stolen device from your iCloud account. Once you do they can gain access. 3. Have passcodes/FaceID set up for all your apps, everything. You can never be too careful. 4. Use an alphanumeric passcode instead of a 4-digit pin. 5. Have a working backup phone available somewhere safe. This is really helpful should the worst happen. 6. Regularly backup your phone and all your app data, like whatsapp chats, photos etc. 7. Get phone insurance. 8. Set two-factor authentication for all email accounts and any apps that allow you to. When you’re out and about 1. Keep your phone hidden at all times. Do not carry your phone in your hand. 2. I do not recommend wearing headphones while outdoors. You can’t hear people coming up behind you and you advertise that you have a phone on you. You become an instant target. If you have to, make sure they are discreet and allow you to hear the noise of your surroundings. 3. Keep bags tightly wrapped around you. Thieves want to be in and out quickly. Having a bag tightly wrapped creates too much resistance. 4. Before using your phone, look around you to see who’s in your vicinity. Only use phone when safe. 5. Try not to walk too close to the roadside of the pavement. 6. Do not have your phone out on the table in coffee shops etc. These thieves will go in and grab them. They don’t care! It’s free money to them. If your phone is snatched 1. Enable lost mode and erase mode on iCloud ‘Find My’ by logging into to iCloud.com/find. If a passerby is kind enough, ask to use their phone to do this using their internet browser. 2. Report your phone stolen to your network carrier. They can blacklist the IMEI of the phone to put off potential buyers for your phone. 3. If your phone is snatched, keep your eyes on them and see where they go. Try to remember any distinctive features, clothes. Try to remember what roads they go down to make their exit etc. This is very useful to the police. 4. Report the theft to the police. 5. Change your passwords - Consider using a password manager like Dashlane. You should never use the same passwords for everything. 6. Call banks and reset any banking apps. 7. If your phone is snatched, keep your eyes on them and see where they go. Try to remember any distinctive features, clothes. Try to remember what roads they go down to make their exit etc. This is very useful to the police. This is all I can think of right now, but I hope this helps. Hopefully, you read this before anything bad happens.

Well, I personally absolutely hate the mobile phone culture that has descended on humanity like a plague from outer space. But everything breeds something else. We now have a subculture of mobile phone thieves, snatching people's mobiles from their hands. This happened yesterday as a friend and I were having lunch at the Artemis café London Road. We didn’t see the snatch, but a girl ran past us screaming. The thief was no longer visible. I felt very sorry for her. Possibly a new student at the local South Bank University. But whilst I feel very sorry for her, at the same time I feel people who walk around texting and paying no attention to what's happening around them are making themselves an easy prey for these criminals. At 5.23 you see a scene exactly like the one we witnessed yesterday.
That is such a movie cliché thing to say, doesn’t happen in the real world. Sadly we need to wait for enlightenment and intelligence to manifest in these scum bags
I had a vespa 300 same they use at beginning of the video, 1 night 4 teenager criminals riding on the other side of a back road on 2 scooters, in Clapham/Brixton area tried to kick me on the floor and then I assume steal my scooter. I do not know why, might have been my past and instinct I knew was happening avoided the kick and stopped then furios shouted at them to come back if they had boll...ks, they dove away. Never bothered to report. Had scooters stolen 3 times in London, now forced to movet to geared big bikes. Police do not give a shit, many times called them and handed scooter thieves on a silver plate, but they did nothing about, and almost had a go at me.
I'm really surprised that still today there's not a way to prevent the phone from being put into airplane mode or turned off without finger print or password
There is! You can lock the simcard! Unfortunately the phone is now useless without that simcard, You cant sell it or give it to a friend, Screen lock, Phone can be located using another phone or computer,But police need a search warrant to enter
When Billionaires move out of London due to crime and property costs, it's like the Captain and the officer class leaving the ship... Eventually, the ship will sink!
Yeah, pretty scummy as Libby says. Someone snatched my phone on a bike 48 hours ago. I caught them in a VERY dynamic way and landed on him. I have some injuries - but I suspect he could have at least as many. Bad man. Got my phone back k which is very rare.
Haha absolute legend, well done! I got mine jacked this week by some lads with knifes who surrounded me, wasn't so lucky getting you won't be surprised to hear 😂😂
Lol Gang??? Of Phone Snatchers?? LmfaO!! Imagine breaking your Mother's Heart for an iPhone5,, now she has to make it a closed casket because half your Top was ran through by a hollow point... How Smart
I would LOVE to run my own unit (Team) against these punks in London ! Believe me they would get theirs! The only catch is that the Government do their part , which is lock them up for GOOD!
If anyone wants to visit the UK, then avoid London at all costs! It's an absolute sh**hole, and you WILL get ripped off by everyone! Taxis, pubs, restaurants, hotels, shops, will ALL be looking to empty your wallet asap, that's if you can keep it from being nicked by a pickpocket in the street!! Head north instead, away from the south of England, you'll meet a much nicer, friendlier kind of Brit! 😁 (I know what I'm talking about, I'm Scottish! 🤣)
If i was the reporter i would have secretly called armed police and got them all arrested, these theives are probably still operating due to low funding by the government in the policing sytem. There needs to be more police on motorbikes and stricter laws.
This is why i don't flash my phone when out and about quick look put it away in my pocket that is zipped up. Friends think i'm pandantic but i'm looking out for myself doing what i can to not be a victim.
Fit all traffic police vehicles with "nudge bars" like in the USA. Give them a chance to stop and if they don't, knock them off. If you drive over them and they die, valet the car and get it out on the streets again.
Had a similar crazy moment during my tourist days - it was December 1st, around 8 PM. Walking down Southwark Bridge Rd toward Park St, and bam! Out of the blue, some dude in gloves snatched my phone right out of my hand. I managed to shake him off, turned around, and what do I see? A masked guy on a bike with his partner-in-crime on another bike. The phone's on the other side now, so these bike bandits pull a quick reverse and pedal off towards the bridge. Wild, right? 🚴♂️

Well l had my phone stolen to my shock people actually seem to do this as a business. I will never have my phone out again in London ...sad to say its being the ghetto everywhere. Your stealing a phone worth £1250 each just to get paid £500 for three and the dealer sells it for twice which im sure still wont come up to the original price. Thats very stupid when it could be done in anther way ...shows the iq of these type of ppl. At the end the big companies win because most ppl have these phones on contract not pay out right ...so again the 1% wins..the ppl making excuses for these criminals..wait until it happens to you and see how you feel.
I would like to thank the black community to our society. Their peaceful and generous nature makes them ideal neighbours, lending testimony to their family values and parenting skills. Their child-rearing practices and skills mixed with their unparalleled work ethic are second to none. Their rationale and logical thought toward circumstances coupled with their innate capability to de-escalate situations is to be envied. Their commitment to academic excellence enriches our schools and serves as an example to all who hope to achieve prominence as a people. Real estate values are driven by the mix of Africans & Jamaicans into an area due to their caring and respectful nature of these communities, their hard work and a self-reliant nature. Without their industrious and creative drive, we would be poorer as a nation.
We all come from Adam and Eve and we shouldn’t harm each other we should help each other. A concept thieves don’t grass. Thieves are sad and lonely bastards.

We didn’t see the snatch, but a girl ran past us screaming. The thief was no longer visible. I felt very sorry for her. Possibly a new student at the local South Bank University. But whilst I feel very sorry for her, at the same time I feel people who walk around texting and paying no attention to what's happening around them are making themselves an easy prey for these criminals. At 5.23 you see a scene exactly like the one we witnessed yesterday.
Ironically this subculture is almost non existent in the us and Canada
They are in "bozo land" obvious to their surroundings
38:44 made me feel like bro in a gta heist
In this game his time will come,when the bigger thug takes his takings!

That is such a movie cliché thing to say, doesn’t happen in the real world. Sadly we need to wait for enlightenment and intelligence to manifest in these scum bags
BBC tell me news . What are you going to do about it ? Nothing.
I had a vespa 300 same they use at beginning of the video, 1 night 4 teenager criminals riding on the other side of a back road on 2 scooters, in Clapham/Brixton area tried to kick me on the floor and then I assume steal my scooter. I do not know why, might have been my past and instinct I knew was happening avoided the kick and stopped then furios shouted at them to come back if they had boll...ks, they dove away. Never bothered to report.
Had scooters stolen 3 times in London, now forced to movet to geared big bikes. Police do not give a shit, many times called them and handed scooter thieves on a silver plate, but they did nothing about, and almost had a go at me.
Imagine that guy Larbi doing the job of at least 10 PAID police officers
Bet it wouldn't be like that if the shop owners had firearms
If only
@@ExUmbra117 that wouldn't happen on Arizona where almost everyone carries a gun
@@ryctohernadez9135 yeah I know, the rest of the would would rather remain as sheep & victims to the violence.
This is most of europe
“AMERICA FUCK YEAH” moment
They need to step up..
get and organized group and hunt the bad..
Brilliant he is right be focused on every thing
Police not do nothing about this
'if you cant get a job...' stealing bikes from pizza deliveries making nothing per hour...
Why is this in 480 p if it's 3 years ago
Not the official channel.
reposted probably
Meanwhile in America: *thief gets shot my every single ped*
Are we supposed to believe that criminals will invite a lady in to their house to interview them
I'm really surprised that still today there's not a way to prevent the phone from being put into airplane mode or turned off without finger print or password
My old Samsung Galaxy A5 forced you to unlock it to shut it down. My current iPhone SE doesn’t do that though unfortunately.
@@gamerboi-ag132 Samsung yes isn't iphone the same. Iphone is rubbish
There is! You can lock the simcard! Unfortunately the phone is now useless without that simcard, You cant sell it or give it to a friend, Screen lock, Phone can be located using another phone or computer,But police need a search warrant to enter
Should be stopped before innocent victims get hurt.
in the usa, these guys would be shot by now
Says not well off need to make some money get fuckin job like rest of us
They always get away... until they don't. That "don't" means jail or prison or shot dead, and is not worth 1000 getaways.
When Billionaires move out of London due to crime and property costs, it's like the Captain and the officer class leaving the ship... Eventually, the ship will sink!
Yeah, pretty scummy as Libby says. Someone snatched my phone on a bike 48 hours ago. I caught them in a VERY dynamic way and landed on him. I have some injuries - but I suspect he could have at least as many. Bad man. Got my phone back k which is very rare.
Haha absolute legend, well done! I got mine jacked this week by some lads with knifes who surrounded me, wasn't so lucky getting you won't be surprised to hear 😂😂
Lol Gang??? Of Phone Snatchers?? LmfaO!! Imagine breaking your Mother's Heart for an iPhone5,, now she has to make it a closed casket because half your Top was ran through by a hollow point...
How Smart
Its uk tho
Nothing to do with not finding a job,I've been unemployed didn't make me a scumbag, It's easy money being a scumbag
I would LOVE to run my own unit (Team) against these punks in London !
Believe me they would get theirs!
The only catch is that the Government do their part , which is lock them up for GOOD!
Motorcycle theft is such a difficult crime to police. The frame number on all production bikes is easily grinded off and replaced with a new one.
If anyone wants to visit the UK, then avoid London at all costs!
It's an absolute sh**hole, and you WILL get ripped off by everyone!
Taxis, pubs, restaurants, hotels, shops, will ALL be looking to empty your wallet asap, that's if you can keep it from being nicked by a pickpocket in the street!!
Head north instead, away from the south of England, you'll meet a much nicer, friendlier kind of Brit! 😁
(I know what I'm talking about, I'm Scottish! 🤣)
All these years I've been working when i should have been a scumbag? I don't believe the grass is greener on the other side!
the cops should just ram them off the road
If i was the reporter i would have secretly called armed police and got them all arrested, these theives are probably still operating due to low funding by the government in the policing sytem. There needs to be more police on motorbikes and stricter laws.
Mothers the type of men we are raising.......we are really failing....
Yh u really have 💀💀💀
Your kids need fathers. Find the right ones and treat them fairly.
Their parents think they’re in the library...
every 1 a foreigner,, I wonder if the local council will give em a flat each while there waiting for there shit mopeds back!!
He’s saving life 😭
Wait... YOOOO WTH
When?
His saving life's people should not walk around with they're phones 🤣🤣🤣
This is why i don't flash my phone when out and about quick look put it away in my pocket that is zipped up. Friends think i'm pandantic but i'm looking out for myself doing what i can to not be a victim.
pandantic? What the hell were you trying to say?
You probably mean Paranoid? Stay that way
@@AureliusR You criticise? But don't know? What are you? 12 years old?
@@Johnketes54 What? You're not making any sense. It was unclear what they were trying to say. It could have been pedantic, paranoid, panic, who knows
@@AureliusRpretty obvious what they mean in context though
Fit all traffic police vehicles with "nudge bars" like in the USA. Give them a chance to stop and if they don't, knock them off. If you drive over them and they die, valet the car and get it out on the streets again.
IIRC, not long after this documentary was released, the UK implemented new enforcement rules for police to allow ramming moped thieves with cars.
A shame that the best runner of the simmulator couldnt be recognized
Had a similar crazy moment during my tourist days - it was December 1st, around 8 PM. Walking down Southwark Bridge Rd toward Park St, and bam! Out of the blue, some dude in gloves snatched my phone right out of my hand.
I managed to shake him off, turned around, and what do I see? A masked guy on a bike with his partner-in-crime on another bike. The phone's on the other side now, so these bike bandits pull a quick reverse and pedal off towards the bridge. Wild, right? 🚴♂️
Now Police have changed their rules of contact with getaway vehicles.
How? Please kindly explain
28:41 man didnt really know that those jewels on the window are fake not the really ones. At least, here in Argentina its how thousands of jewelry stores has been saving their asses
The reason they do it is your crap laws in your country 🙄.
He has a moped why can't he do deliveroo simple because they don't want to graft they just want easy cash and thats there way of doing it
The moped is stolen, they don’t own it
.. it doesn't matter how GANGSTER you might think you are there is always A BIGGER FISH OUT THERE THEN YOU!
I got robbed two days ago in Manchester.😓We need more CCTV.
What's CCTV gonna do? We have enough as it is
9 minutes 59 seconds... plain clothes policeman in green jacket
Poor delivery drivers
Do that in fiji....i promise you....you must run for your life & never to be found again.....if not, there will be no more teeth fOr you to Brush😂😂
Cars should just ram them, screw it
Usual suspects
I can't for he life of me think why this doc is 40 min long
And they say London is safe HUH
13:51 LMAO
He could try crowd funding
These little broke wannabe gms that don’t even have a line 😂😂
Bring back public floggings - 50 lashes with a whip - plus a stiff prison sentence, and see what that does for the crime wave.
Google "The Birch"
Time to strap up London!
I really hope the best for the “Mrx” he sounds like a good guy he just needs a second chance
Yeah that’s probably the case
This was beautiful
I can’t wait to see their faces when apple iCloud lock comes in place n since apple is pairing parts with the phone….dismantling is a waste too😂
Sadly there will be a way to still unlock the phones, everything digital is written and it only takes someone to write some software to unlock it.
@@sniperwipers yea but its been more then 5 years n the only solution is to replace the hardware which apple already paired with other pArts on the phone, making it harder
Watch hugh jefferys iphone 12 repairability video like u can even replace the camera or the battery since they are paired to the iPhone 12 board
Not gonna touch on the display part as u can copy the data
N even if ur replacing then u got to have the original stuff that came with the board which at this point ur better off buying a used or a new ones
Maybe they can sell it as test board for solder practice for close to nothing prices but i dont see how putting urself at risk is worth that
Also they need to do is wipe the phone and reinstall it
15:41
Whats the name of the clip.
says everythign when you need to put in the title of a video called "Phone snatching on London's streets (English subtitles)" at the end of it.....
But. Where are the MI6?
Commute crimes oh here you go son have a wee spin. Look for work everyday doors slammed in faces.
The police can’t do anything then why do they have a job or the mayor is protecting them with his policy’s
Wonder what essentials they spend the money on though ?
Weed,weed,weed,booze,condoms,X box! There is something else but my benefit money or mum provides that ahh yes FOOD
A man said buss the phone in airplane mode lol
Well l had my phone stolen to my shock people actually seem to do this as a business. I will never have my phone out again in London ...sad to say its being the ghetto everywhere. Your stealing a phone worth £1250 each just to get paid £500 for three and the dealer sells it for twice which im sure still wont come up to the original price. Thats very stupid when it could be done in anther way ...shows the iq of these type of ppl. At the end the big companies win because most ppl have these phones on contract not pay out right ...so again the 1% wins..the ppl making excuses for these criminals..wait until it happens to you and see how you feel.
I would like to thank the black community to our society.
Their peaceful and generous nature makes them ideal neighbours, lending testimony to their family values and parenting skills.
Their child-rearing practices and skills mixed with their unparalleled work ethic are second to none. Their rationale and logical thought toward circumstances coupled with their innate capability to de-escalate situations is to be envied. Their commitment to academic excellence enriches our schools and serves as an example to all who hope to achieve prominence as a people. Real estate values are driven by the mix of Africans & Jamaicans into an area due to their caring and respectful nature of these communities, their hard work and a self-reliant nature.
Without their industrious and creative drive, we would be poorer as a nation.
you know.. i thought about going to london... but nvm..
Richmond is nice,Has Kew Gardens and a huge deer park and hotel's and a train station
On my job but he is
This phenomenon has only gotten more common with the economy getting worse and worse
And why has the economy got worse? To many people?
Jewellery in FRONT OF THE METAL BARS
We all come from Adam and Eve and we shouldn’t harm each other we should help each other. A concept thieves don’t grass. Thieves are sad and lonely bastards.
And I thought that Britain (England in particular) is better than America
Same but I guess not
There’s crime in every country
I think it still is? Except I'm Paranoid and not blissfully unaware of my surroundings, I choose the time i leave not to early or to late and if a area has just one person loitering l turn around
From now on if I have my phone out I am wrapping my hands around it with a firm grip
They are scooters , mopeds have pedals Ave had a typhoon ,NRG, they get boring I would rather have a DTR or KDX
Nigeria…smh
he’s saving lives from walking and texting
These southern continent Bluebottle flies never fail to disappoint me!
