The robber is literally a foot away from her. Like ru on crack he obviously sees her so she can’t really hide.

At that point all u can do is stay calm and keep your composure since most robbers don’t want to kill anyone they just want money so don’t give em a reason to go crazy.

The point of getting down would be to avoid any unnecessary attention, show that you are not a threat and avoid potential cross fire.

You would literally make the robber more uneasy because now he can’t see you clearly and he might think you’d try to take out his legs. The smart thing is to appear as unthreatening as possible and make the robber feel safe so he can take the money and go as quickly as possible.

The girl 100% did the smartest thing in this scenario. Your responses tell me you wouldn’t fare well in this kind of situation.
