    I did once when I was living in Dublin. I was 13 when I got mugged by some big fellas in his late 20s.

    I was around 5'8 and 13 and a half stone, he was 6'2 and around 18 stone. He grabbed a piece of steel of the ground and threatened to bash in my head with it unless I gave him my 2 rings. He also said if I told anyone he would find me and him and a bunch of guys would kick the crap out of me.

    I found out his name through my sources and when I was 15 I saw him name in court and he had 83 convinctions!!! Tell me your stories!

    Thats funny, i was only talking about mugging in another thread.
    Ya once abroad by a brazillian guy. I was walking with my sister down a poorly lit street and this guy on a moped was shouting over to us, we kept walking and next thing a guy comes running towards us grabs my bag and keeps running, knocking me to the ground.
    He kept calling my sisters mobile from my phone saying the most disgusting things. Rang meteor to ask them to block my phone. Guess what they didn't and he ran up a bill of 300eur in calls to Brazil that night. Thank god they record calls with meteor as i was able to complain and at first they denied receiving a call from me but then admitted a call was lodged.
    Well thats my story

    Nearly. Cornered by some girl with a pram in some woods, just ran the other way.

    Pathetically, I was absolutely terrified.

    Held up once with a handgun (that turned out to be a replica) in a place I worked.

    Also had my wallet snatched years ago in a shop and actually chased and nearly caught the bloke but he pulled out a syringe so I decided to walk away.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade


    Every time I go out in Dublin, I wake up with an empty wallet. Have never been mugged, but that's the closest I've got to feeling like it.

    It was tried but it didn't go well for him.
    Knocked him out and disarmed him. Dragged his sorry ass to the Garda station and threw him in the main doors.

    I was waiting for someone outside Trinity College and a young fella (accompanied by others) pulled my phone out of my hand... then turned on his heel and gave it back to me, noting "It's too sh1te"... :D

    I've never been mugged (thankfully). I've never been in a position where I've been faced with a knife or a gun or even a replica for that matter, again thankfully.

    But when faced with a threat I have a fight rather than flight reaction. It's not pretty for a girl to carry on that way, I know, or particularly clever for that matter. But its a survival instinct, and a feeling I cannot explain. Just pure hatrid for the person that thinks they can take advantage of you, and it makes no odds to me if its a woman or a man - they don't have to be a particular gender to be the scum of the earth.

    I... sort of have. :/


    Was out in the town centre (not Birmingham, before I moved back); a very small, quiet town. Went to the shop with 3 mates, was approached by around 20-25 young lads.


    Stopped us dead in our tracks, a few of them started circling us. "HU R U, YE?" (text speak to demonstrate idiocy) a mate of mine calmly told them his name, and asked who they were; which, obviously was ignored.

    One came up to another mate, said nothing, just held a bottle to his head.

    Then one came up to me, and started going through my pockets. What I don't understand is - I had a wallet there, and he ignored it? :confused:


    Not sure if that really counts as a mugging as they didn't actually steal anything, but it was still scary.


    I think they thought we might have knifes, they seemed on the lookout - but I mean, for God sake; we were four white middle class kids. We looked more like a boyband than thugs.

    Same here.

    Don't think i look very muggable. 6ft 2 , 18 stone+.

    Then again the scummer in question could have a knife so size or strength would mean nothing. Have the 3 euros in my wallet.

    I hate to break it to you but you were molested by pocket fetishists.

    Sure we all say that.
    But how do you know what you will do unless you have been mugged.
    By the way it happens so fast you won't probably have time to react.
    I just lay there making some uncomprehensible sound
