i dunno, 4 free iphones is probably worth dealing with glitter and fart spray for a few minutes?

#42Do you think the bomb maker could be held liable if the package were to be opened in a moving car that subsequently crashed because of glitter getting in the driver's eyes? I'd be a little nervous about doing this myself.
IANAL, but is that seriously a legal risk? The guy would have to explain he stole it.

#43It's not funny, first of all. It's childish. It isn't in keeping with the spirit of the holidays. The holidays are about giving, not being assholes to the less fortunate. Thieves deserve what they get, but seriously, if you were looking at how to spend your time over the holidays, why not volunteer or donate and forget about the lowlifes? They are punished enough just by living, and no childish bullshit is going to deter them from their behavior. Set a good example for others this holiday season and don't give in to childish pranks that just further tear down our society.

#45I'm honestly really shocked by how casually people seem to steal these parcels, like what the hell?
And many of those people were driving pretty nice cars! It wasn't exactly the homeless stealing packages to feed their family.

#47I've had fantasies of much worse punishments for package thieves, like a paint gun sentinel. I'd buy this if he'd manufacture it.
Dump 100mg of cadaverine in the thiefs car and they'll never use that car again. And possibly the clothes they wore at the time.
Or other chemicals.
It would be most exciting to find chemicals that yield strongest short-term effects without any damaging long term effects.

#49Anyone else found it unsatisfactory that there was nothing about forwarding the footage of the thieves to the police?
The article mentions that he built this in the first place because the police told him that there was nothing they could do even with footage

#50The video is well worth your time. The device works very well, and the fart spray has a purpose, in that it encourages the thief to ditch the package as soon as possible, enabling him to recover and reload it.
There's a reason why materialism is bad.
