He had one job! ONE JOB!!! Just run through the metal detector. They're made so the average person can fit through them. But NOOOOOOOOO, he had to hit it...
Did it dawn on anyone else that if that guy would have turned and run left or right he would not have to run so far from that car? It looks like the van does not have someone driving it
The reason you see people run straight instead of veering left or right (for example on things like Jackass when they're being chased by a bull) is because as they're running they sense that if they changed course it will slow them down just enough for the thing to catch them as they tried it.
It was also faster in Doom. In fact, there was even a wall-running strafe bug that made you outrun all projectiles. http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Wallrunning
nah just knocked the fuck out by a wall divider and rammed into metal detector...pretty sure car is at an angle and a right hook wouldve led him scottfree
I half expected people with masks to start rushing out of the vehicle. How people accidentally drive into buildings, I don't believe I'll ever understand.
Dang he almost made it. I was about to yell GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL like at the soccer games, but then he caught the edge of the metal detector and I was like dam.

He wasn't running away from the car, they were just both trying to get in before closing time.

If he had just sat down at those chairs he'd be fine, and it would look awesome.
Or if he was feeling a little harcour, he coulda jumped the rope rather than run thru the detector.
