Three Thugs ATTEMPT to Rob an Old Man with a Black Belt

Ben Graham | June 2, 2015

Chalk up another reason to not commit a crime. Three thugs walked into a convenience store in Coffs Harbour, New South Wales, Australia in a threatening manner. 64-year-old Keith Butler sees their masks and instantly goes into attack mode. The punks had no idea what they were in for.

Butler is a former boxer and is a practicing black belt in karate. When the supposed leader of the troupe demanded money, Butler had already grabbed what looks to be a small club and began battering him in the head repeatedly. It wasn’t long before they all admitted defeat and turned tail. In what is to be a hilarious finish to the video, you see the “old man” charging after the would-be thieves. Not a doubt in his mind as he gives chase.

Those boys learned a litany of valuable lessons that day. Chief among them, other than to not commit crimes and expect positive outcomes, is to not judge a man by his age.
