A group of armed robbers thought to stop a car on the highway, leaping from their car and brandishing pistols at our driver -- who was, it turns out, the only person who understood physics in that moment.

In the wild clip, you see a group of robbers slowing to a stop before what appears to be a truck before closing the distance in reverse and leaping from their relatively-undersized vehicle brandishing weapons. Instinctually, the driver of the superior vehicle tries backing up before realizing that sometimes the best way around something is through it.

The thieves probably thought their plan was pretty clever -- trapping the vehicle with no exits. But nobody is as clever as the robber who, if you pay close attention, actually tries to jump back in the car right before the truck driver does what the truck driver does.

Audacity is an expensive virtue when accompanied by stupidity.
