You have a gun pointed at your head

saiint · 16-07-2012 02:46PM #1

You just won the lotto 2million euro
the ticket is in your wallet as your going to collect it that morning
you go into a petrol station to fill up your car to go to collect your winnings
then
You have a gun pointed at your head from a person robbing the place, point blank range asking you to hand over your wallet and your other valuables
what do you do?

i can smell chuck norris all over this thread

Give them the wallet, a winning lotto ticket is feck all use to me if I am dead.

chin_grin · 16-07-2012 02:47PM

Realistically: p!ss myself and hand over my wallet.

Fantasy-land scenario: p!ss myself and while the guy is distracted by that disarm him using some mad kung fu sh!t I saw in this movie once.

Hardonraging · 16-07-2012 02:48PM

I'd ask him to hold on while i youtube "how to disarm a gunman"

cocoshovel · 16-07-2012 02:48PM

reach for me wallet,
smack the gun out of his hand,
run away screaming like a girl hoping I dont get shot.
????
profit!

In Ireland, chances are its just a pellet gun anyway

Honestly if I had a lotto ticket I'd be putting it directly in my pocket or somewhere not my wallet where it could be robbed

but really:

i know there's a reflex you can hit someone's hand and no matter what they're holding or how tight, it goes flying across the room
but it'd be a tad bit different when they have a gun, to doing it in a training room on mats with a rubber knife that they don't want to hurt you with :P

crazy cabbage · 16-07-2012 02:50PM

do the whole matrix thing and douge bullets and stuff.

kfallon · 16-07-2012 02:51PM

Tell him it's the winning ticket, alert the Gardai after it so if the ticket is claimed he'll be nabbed and you know the thick c*nt will prob try claim it at some stage!

I'm sure that there must be some process of collecting a Lotto jackpot even tho you've lost a ticket so I doubt you'll lose out on your jackpot. There is one for the bookies anyway!

16-07-2012 02:51PM

Id hand him the fake wallet I have always carried in case of mugging.

What?

No one else carries a fake wallet?

Bad Panda · 16-07-2012 02:51PM

Risk it for biscuit....

...Or fake a heart attack or some kind of fit or something and stumble out the door or fall over some shelving. He'd probably just think 'ah fcuk it'. Otherwise he'd be wasting get away time.

mauzo · 16-07-2012 02:52PM

It would be in my bra

I wouldn't give it, unless I was sure I would be killed if I didn't. I've been held with a knife to my neck before and they got shìt all from me.

juan.kerr · 16-07-2012 02:52PM

Let him have the ticket, report it to the guards and national lottery. They organise an elaborate sting operation, he gets arrested when he attempts to claim the winnings. My finger prints or DNA on the ticket or the backup photocopy or picture I took or the shop CCTV will help prove it was my ticket. Pick up winnings. Be happy another scumbag os off the street.

that's clever actually

but knowing the guards it'd still be "oh we cant do anything"

davet82 · 16-07-2012 02:53PM

cry like a bitch and hopefully he will leave me be in disgust

Owen_S · 16-07-2012 02:53PM

I would ignore the gunman and go about my business as usual.

16-07-2012 02:53PM

Tell him to f**k off, some small time thief wouldn't have the bottle to pull the trigger.

WolfgangWeisen · 16-07-2012 02:53PM

People who rob petrol stations don't have real guns as they're generally junkies, so I'd call his bluff.

The people with the guns rob banks up North and sit in opposition in the Dail

If I were in the position that someone was threatening me and I had the winning ticket, I'd ask him could I empty the wallet and keep it itself as it's sentimental but of no actual worth, and then attempt to thumb the ticket while emptying it.

Well it's all about the point of less resistance from the joint and the way it's going. If the attacker was holding the gun in the usual pointing-directly-from-body way you could (all theory) use one arm to "block" and hit away and the other to subdue (probably grab throat). Y'know the usual movie BS.

But this is all after p*ssing oneself.

Have absolutely no idea who that is or what relevance it has to my post sorry!

danniemcq · 16-07-2012 02:55PM

heh stopping for petrol,

if i won 2 million quid i think i'd be at my local garda station asking for a few to escort me to the head office or whereever i claim it.

You only have to pay their wages too so not as expensive as a private security firm

phasers · 16-07-2012 02:58PM

this is why I keep all my winning lotto tickets in my bra

Depends on the position of the person holding the gun.
Are they behind, to the side or front?

Plazaman · 16-07-2012 03:00PM

Pretend I was deaf or something....

Gunman : Hand over you wallet !

Me : Mallet? I don't have a mallet.

Gunman : I said your wallet you dumb shít?

Me : Dump it? Dump it where? I told you I don't have one.

Gunman : Give me your fúckin wallet or I'll kill you !!!

Me : Fuzzy wuzzy was a woman ??? Jesus Christ !!!

Mr.Crinklewood · 16-07-2012 03:00PM

I would not worry too much, ever since The 12th of June 1997 the illuminati have inserted GPS tags onto lottery tickets, therefore I would hand over the wallet and the ticket within.

Since I had signed the ticket with a pen my DNA would be in the ink, as since July 13th 2012 the illuminati have ensured that all pens soak the users DNA into the ink.

As a result, the BPOL would be able to initially track the lottery ticket, they would also be able to track me as they have my DNA on their databases ( which they collected during the last two referendums ).

Sky King · 16-07-2012 03:04PM

I'd tell him his safety is on and when he looks down to check, I would take the gun off him and shoot him in the leg, then take a bite out of an apple and stroll out of the shop. That's precisely how I roll.

CamperMan · 16-07-2012 03:05PM

I always carry 2 wallets with me, one has small notes in it and old bank cards, I would hand that over to a thief...

they would not ask if you had another one would they

Stephen Merchant is a writer, well known for The Office, when he was in university you used to carry around a fake wallet in case he got robbed

Not a bad idea, even if you weren't robbed at gunpoint.
'Garda, I swear that man who claims to have won the lotto robbed the ticket off me at gunpoint! ....so it's my money!'
