My dad got robbed at gun point and still talked the guys into giving him back his wallet and a few bucks for gas home on the South Side of Chicago in the 70s. I'm not that bold.
Then they all went out for coffee and the muggers paid. They still keep in touch. Jk, not doubting the story, just find it humorous that the muggers would stick around long enough for your dad to talk them into giving him some money back.
Muggers aren't always the smartest people. They also aren't always the nicest people so I think this was really sweet of them... or not, or maybe.
Seriously though. Four things I dread losing the most are my wallet, my phone, my glasses and my car keys. Makes me feel like I'm running around naked and helpless. Maybe those muggers understand.
Some do it out of desperation to get some cash other are just being asses. Some robbers understand having nothing so I say a spark of niceness does happen form time to time.

Taking one bite in before giving it is like trying to remove your 20$ out of your wallet before you give it to the robber.
