@dobaraotra.2 What a shocking video, but unfortunately it is very realistic in crowded tourist areas. The video documents an attempted robbery in the metro of Barcelona, Spain, and shows the method used by" pickpockets " (carteristas) to hunt their victims. Here's an analysis of what happened in the video and tips for avoiding these situations: Analysis of the style of theft in the video: * Exploitation of congestion: thieves choose the moment of crowding at the subway doors (during boarding or disembarking) as passengers are busy with movement. * Coverage: in the video, you notice two people working together; one is trying to open the bag and the other is watching or acting as a human curtain. * Backpacks: the victim was wearing the backpack backwards, which makes her an easy target because the robber is working out of her field of vision. * Confrontation: the video ends with a sharp confrontation in which the robbers were exposed, resulting in them retreating and starting an altercation. How to protect yourself from" pickpocketing " in crowded places To preserve your belongings while traveling or using public transport, follow the following golden rules: * Backpack forward: on the subway or buses, wear your backpack from the front (on your chest) to stay under your gaze all the time. * Distribution of purposes: do not put all your money, phone and passport in one place. Use the "Money Belt" (Money Belt) that is worn under clothes for valuables. * Pay attention to the doors: be more careful when opening and closing the doors, this is the "golden moment" for the robbers to do their deed and escape before closing the door. * Zipper lock: use bags with hidden zippers or small locks if you are going to carry valuable items. Comparison table: right action versus danger | Attitude / dangerous disposition (attracts a robber) / safe disposition | |---|---|---| | Backpack / worn on the back in the crowd | worn from the front (on the chest) | / Mobile phone | put it in the back pocket of the pants | put it in an inner zip pocket | / Wallet | carry it in hand or in a side pocket | put it in the depths of the bag or waist belt | / Attention | complete preoccupation with the phone or map | constantly monitoring the surroundings, especially when stopping | It's good that the person who shot the video was attentive and helped to detect them.
