This could be a Monty Python skit... "Well I'm a bank robber, and we're sick of being treated unfairly"
👌😂😂
lol
This is comedy gold😅 lol
True but there is a point in it too, that someone's past doesn't necessarily define them. I respect people who've committed crimes but turned their lives around. Of course if you find out about it, you'd initially be wary, but better to be mildly cautious than to completely write them off.
@@Geoffrey454 true, I've more respect for victims of crime that manage to carry on with their livelihood, plenty don't and are permanently, mentally scared.
Who else thought he called while robbing a bank?
Me :(
I really wanted that, lol
Clickbait
Deniz Ozmen no because I’m not stupid like you
It's called click bait, it's a ttitle of false there for single prupose of drawing views
Can't even rob a couple of banks these days
might as well ring gangsta granny 😂
It's criminal ! 🤣
Many people still do. But it’s not robbing. It’s reclaiming what they stole
Simon Pegg did not age well.
Rence3000 PS4 gamer! good shout lol
Looks abit like derek accorah lol
LIL D BEATS YES!!
A cranberry juice please
I totally thought it was him before I read the title
'It's a stigma you'll never get rid of' - Being an armed bank robber LOLOLOLOL, love this guy.
Camcolito I can’t believe this. He stopped short of almost saying he’s a victim of discrimination!
So what ? Old armed robbers like him are decent people, they stole from banks had mprales. They never stabbed shot or beat to death anyone for a pair of trainers like they do today.

You've been watching too many 1960s movies. They were all decent chaps who resembled David Lodge and/or Bernard Cribbins. I don't think so.
You rob a few banks and you are labelled a bank robber forever, what a world

"I used to Rob with Firearms, Why would police be suspicious of me!?"
Totally hilarious

That’s not what he said, yet again what’s hilarious how predictable you people are.
@@johnparr347yrsand2 its the same logic we condemn the Jews for killing Jesus.
@@bilalthagreat6460 Who are you to say 30 years is enough?
@@jommydavi2197 the law said that.
Lets not beat around the bush, the North is a more friendly place in general.
Spot on pal.
As a southerner, you're 100% right.
I disagree. I think the North/South divide is in play. I feel like I get treated like an alien in the North. My cousins, who are from the North, feel the same coming to see me.
Late response but agreed! I love the north..especially York ;)
LazarkGaming maybe you’re a family of weirdos
I get the same reaction when police stop me and find out I have an overdue library book since 1975.
It's a stigma you'll never get rid of 😂
Laughing my head off. Better go check the book shelf
Loooool
You evil swine the only criminal act worse than that is tax evasion.
Do the right thing, take the book back and pay the fine so you can sleep easy.
this is brilliant" Are you the one who went into Banks a lot with guns "😂😂😂
He legit looks like the cop from Hot Fuzz in retirement
i thought that too
😄😄😄😄😄
The fact is, you’re embarrassing us, nick.
So unfair huh, imagine being profiled as a dangerous man just because you rob a bank with a gun a few times, absolutely shocking really
he has done his time. If they consider him a threat to society he should be in prison. Can't have it both ways.
The thing is that police aren't allowed to profile. Perhaps that's what Mr. Criminal was getting at.
armed for a job isn't the same as being armed in general... being armed in general would be a cause for concern but he was armed for the job... so all the officers would need too ascertain is he on a job lol...

The man was just showing off (boasting of) his bank robber past in an indirect/abstract way.
Are you the one that went into banks with a gun a lot 😂 😂😂😂.
LMAO. ONLY in the UK, a bank robber complaining about being treated differently. The cops there are way too nice. Try that again in the US or anywhere else in the world.
Yep US policing is a civil rights disgrace. Coming from the so called home of the free makes it even funnier. Overly militarized, overly aggressive, under trained makes for a bad result. What's sadder is so many Americans seem to revel in it.
They're not trigger happy and hysterical you mean.
UK police killed 0 people in 2017. US police killed 560 people in the same year.
In Australia they will put you on Pub tours and get paid for all the yarns and war stories.
The guys done his time, why carry on like a nagging wife?
Why look for a fight when there isn’t one?
The uk if far nicer to live than the us.
Yakkun exactly
I wonder if "that was 20 years ago" would hold so much weight with him if Ian Huntley turned up at his door for a babysitting job.
Under rated comment
He's not applying to be the bank's security manager he's driving down the road and getting hassled.
The comments are absolutely 100% what I expected after watching the video. I have nothing to add to this
"They're not trea'in me oight" while sitting on a million quid smoking cigars.
That bank robber is a bit of a snowflake if you ask me.
Say that to his face.
He would accept whatever but he noticed a difference in attitude so being curious he asked why. That is not being a snowflake.
CALM DOWN JONNIE CONCRETE
YOU COULD'NT FILL IN A FORM
and a scumbag who should get a real job
@@DisconnectedRoamer We don't know how he's changed since he was done for a firearms offence 30 years ago. He might've got a job and turned his life around.
Reformed? Ye...
...I only do post offices now 🤣😂
He sounds exactly as I expected him to
"Are you the one that went into banks with guns a lot?" And now you've phoned in to criticise the police 😂
Just having a chat really
Would of been hilarious if he’d rang in and said “I don’t do banks anymore, but I must say your house is the nicest I’ve ever been in” and then hung up! 🤣🤣
Dean Dodds, 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My daddy was a bank robber
But he never hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your money
Great song!
Top comment. The Clash or Guy Ritchie Rocknrolla
The Met in particular have an attitude to them. Even the other forces like BTP and city police who work in the same area are of the impression that the Mets attitude stinks! This comes from someone who’s worked for all three of the aforementioned forces!
The Met stopped and searched me 5x a day at the age of 12. Sometimes 7-10 of them. My hatred for authorities stems from my experience with the Met. West Midlands Police on the other hand are friendly, respectful, etc.
piggy
Guidelines recommend using the word Service as forces seems a bit too aggressive
@@benwarburton7765 I would say that’s political correctness gone mad! I also wonder how much in tax payers money it cost to change every bit of branding from force too service.
@@NB-nk1qy probably costs about the same as it used to cost to rent out hot fuzz and some popcorn from blockbuster
It's shocking. How dare the police be suspicious of a violent ex con!
armed for a job isn't the same as being armed in general... being armed in general would be a cause for concern but he was armed for the job... so all the officers would need too ascertain is he on a job lol...
Technically he’s never shot anyone so how is he violent? Serious question. Does holding a weapon make you violent despite never using it? What if it’s fake?
Bank robbers are stereotypically not violent. They are pretty calculated actually. Otherwise they would be doing up peoples houses, not banks with rows of security.
Can't make a honest living these days unless you are a politician 🤣
In 2012, in the run-up to the Olympic Games, a charity for disabled children, was trying to hire a coach for their Summer Camp. The coach companies, in London, had jacked their prices so high, because of the demand, including demand by the Met, that the charity simply couldn't afford one.
I wrote to Bernard Hogan-Howe, asking if 1 of their chartered coaches was going (empty) to the Olympic events in Dorset, as the empty coach would be passing the camp site. Two days after posting the letter, I received his hand-written reply, promising that his HQ would get on to it; the kids got a coach and went camping!
Can you imagine: the man that lead the police & security operation for the 2012 Games, with all that pressure, found the time (and humanity) to remember the community - LEGEND!
The time Big Vern from Viz called into LBC.

Not many of us that remember Viz

rkent06 It will be a lifelong mission to keep it alive. This I vow.
If you are an old violent lag who used guns. You should expect to be treated a little differently wherever you go.
He means they didn’t try to find something/stitch him up when they found out who he was
Brilliant call!!
So are we gonna ignore the fact that this chief looks like an older st Angel (or Angle) from Hot Fuzz?
😅😅😅
No...there’s a comment from 2years ago that addresses this exact fact :)
At the end of the day the man's served his time so should be treated with respect !
Arrrrr were they nasty to that nice armed robber?.how unreasonable of them.
It’s so interesting to see this as an American and to see their reactions to the idea of using guns. Here, it’s almost surprising to hear of robbery that doesn’t involve the use of a gun.
I’m quite a bit jealous.
Remember the first time I saw armed police officers at glasgow central station. It was because the terror threat had been increased. Perfectly reasonable. But people did not feel like they were being protected. They felt that the police officers WERE the threat! There was considerable anger. directed at them..all because the state had suddenly introduced weapons that we just never see.
30 years ago. It’s a long time. If you’ve been straight 20-30 years, it’s rough to carry that. I know all the “well, you should never have done it”.....some kids are 19 and DO get led astray by older villains. I have a lot of time for anyone who genuinely turns their life around, far better in many ways than cosseted middle class folks who never had that influence and preach about how they would never do that. A bad penny and all that.
How dare the police have a bad demeanour towards a bank robber with firearms...is he kiddin 😂
"Ok I might of waved a firearm at people in banks, completely traumatising them and putting them in fear for their lives to a degree where they will never be the same again, but I wonder why people are not friendly to me"
never be the same again......get a grip
He was on about coppers not the public.. Thicko
Still waiting for the remarkable moment !
Northerners are friendly, simple as !
You haven't met them all yet...
i'm from the North and prefer how people keep themselves to themselves down south. Friendliness is subjective
That guy is pissing himself
Ive spoke to police from the midlands and they have worked with the met and hated them saying they are to arrogant and hit first ask questions later and this was straight from midlands police mouth
Cannot see a conversation like this happening in America
My dad is from down south and he said he would rather live up north simply because people are friendlier and take the time to speak to you
Midlands is the place to be. Best of both worlds. ;)
@@sshep86 Midlands is literally the worst of both worlds.
@@DisconnectedRoamer Righto.
It's not about the North and south. It's about the distance from London. If you head in to Devon or Cornwall you will get the same friendliness as in West Wales or up north.
That accent, just see Danny Dyre walking like a geeza smokin a cigarette, yeah robbin banks with guns I done that hahahaaha
Should've asked him if he's gonna arrest Prince Andrew?
Why should coppers be respectful to a criminal?
Whatever happened to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act?
The act applies to things such as job search
A criminal record will stay on the Police computer forever
Some lag nicked it.
Exactly. ..I was a bit naughty with cars in my early 20s. ..I've had a full clean licence for 25 plus years now ..yet when getting pulled over recently they started dragging up all my previous driving offences from the 1980s as if to say..."We know ALL about you " ..I've served all my bans ...and as far as I'm concerned that should be it ..
Not anymore.... since CRB changed to DBS, now even spent convictions show on a basic check.. Employers will see everything in your past.
The rehabilitation act, aka throw them in a cell and let them get on with it act.
Give him a break his only robbed a bank or two with sawn off shotguns :)
I know you well done Brother LL&R
"I'd expect you to be tret reasonably"? 😁
There's quite a lot of old villians on the Island (Isle of Dogs), trust me. The new villians are those lot plotted up at Canary Wharf!
Seems like a reasonable chap. The Chief I mean
The irony 😭I’m dying inside
Yeah when I'm arrested by the police I always want them to be friendly, you know?
Not so "generous" when you're a football fan from London.
Talks about the north and then mentions Staffordshire 😂
For southerners the north starts above the Watford gap.
Coppa looks like Simon pegg 🤣😂❤️😂
The title should read *ex bank robber calls police*
He's been straight for 20-30 years.
Where was the remarkable moment though?
Didn't know us in staffordshire were considered northern!
Lmao anything North of London is Northern to Londoners. (I used far too many of the same words there).
In Devon Ive heard people say London is "up north"...
Deflecting and gaslighting regardless of who’s on the other end or what they’ve done
lolololol his genuinely suprised
well im from hertfordshire spent most my teens in and out of prision. when i started sort myself out there was bad coppers who just pester me because there bord. and then there good coppers. one copper got me a job in pet shop day i got out. im still friends with him. im now security officer and when doing my training the guy sitting next to me was ex police who put me jail about 3 times atlest. police see me now and stop say hello but thats it all kinda friendly
I can not believe that in a paragraph of less than one hundred words, I can see at least thirty mistakes in spelling, punctuation and grammar. Not only has this country gone to the dogs, so has the use of the English language.
You could start by improving your written communication skills. People will think you are thick or American.
Turn on English subtitles. You will thank me.
Why? He talks normal
Professional!.😂key word here surprised he knew the meaning of.
Legend someone buy this man a pint
he's gone soft that bank robber.. he wants kisses n cuddles now.. aww bless
This caller a joke got to be laughed at
Spiderman your grasp on writing a sentence that’s spelt correctly is funnier 😂
Spiderman you’re*
D ARVS poor poppet lol 😂
Oh, this is so old-school...
I found out someone was previously a cop , then I'd definitely judge them on that fact
The subtle nuances in the voice when asked 'have you been in trouble BEFORE' when stopped by the old bill, is almost another way of saying you are in trouble NOW, when in fact, you haven't done anything wrong , and you have to remember your far from shiny past, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who resents this, as a straight man.
Being amicable becomes more difficult, with this 'rabbit in the headlights' feeling overtaking your calm nature and feeling an anger brewing. 'it was so long ago'
RadGamma2307 Gamma
it's the insinuation of criminality , the Implied stigma of the 'standard' question that I don't like.
sorry, you wrote such a complex response, worthy of a different argument perhaps.
should they have firearms? not sure, but let's see if they can routinely function with a body camera first eh?
There's no implied stigma at all, it's you that can't understand or grasp a simple concept.
The question is "HAVE you".. have you implies nothing, they're simply asking if you have or have not been in trouble either, it's an open question.
Not "When were you".... which implies you have been in trouble....
People like you really are fucking thick...
thefiestaguy these people are truly insane. A lack of human contact makes them paranoid. Best to ignore them.
The real question is if youve got the gall go go and rob banks why did you get so sensitive to how things are worded to you?
Their own fault for being violent armed robbers, nobody else's.
The police need to remember - armed bank robbers have feelings too 🥺
I was up north once... Islington
😂
Not that remarkable . Bank robbers know how to use telephones too .
And that radio presenter is no good either, I complained to him and he told me to go away he has more important calls to take
Nycota Rium Hahaha
Could have done with subs !!!
🤣
"Ahp norf"... I'd be beating the bejaysus out of Mick as well..
I aggree he should be treated the same so what if he has a history of violence
what are his views on gun control ?
geezerp1982 Same as all useless cops. People do not have the right to self defence in the UK. Kick a criminal and YOU do time whilst the cops claim you antagonised the situation and should have just been a good little victim so they can justify their PATHETIC claim the that are there to protect you when in reality they are there to extract revenue, support the elite and help the bent Judiciary.
SiliquaeSid Your comment is moronic. Everyone in the UK has the right to self defence under common law and section 3 of the Criminal Law Act.
Defend yourself = jail time
Ollie Barbor Absolute nonsense. We've literally just seen someone kill a burglar in self defence and it be totally legal. Do you not read the news?
A.W. R-C In the U.K. it is considered a criminal offence to carry on your person: a gun, a knife, a taser, a can of pepper spray and other means of self defence. Let me ask you, if you have no way to defend yourself, how were you supposed to feel safe? What are you supposed to do when confronted by a rapist with a weapon? Bend over and spread your cheeks? Fucking despicable. The citizens of the U.K. are defenceless.
What's the point of a commissioner unless he's honest? I was attacked in a police station by some officers I complained, they claimed I attacked them 1st. However the whole incident was caught on cctv, I spent the next 6 years trying to get it, they wouldn't let me have it, I tried via court order, the commissioner sent a legal team to court to stop me getting the footage so he successfully perverted the course of justice
Nycota Rium why didn’t you find out where they live, which would take ~15 minutes via google and social media, and successfully pervert the arrangement of his face
Old bill...A bigger criminal organisation than the gambini family
Taking it to the news seems to work for most cases.
Not everyone has that opportunity, the media doesn't give a shit most of the time. All you can do is go on with your life hoping it doesn't happen again, or turn into a politician/police chief and try to teach some manners to these criminals.
Gambino. Colin.
I remember Sir Bernard interviewing me many years ago
he didn't even know he came to his post as met commissioner due to me....
Treat Tommy Robinson reasonably then, forget his past like you say.
his still living in his past
Change the title!
Rodfather72 u melon head did u listen to the vid? He admitted going into banks alot with guns 😂😂😂 what do u think he means by that?
MikeD Reading the comment was a face palm moment ha!
The title is a bit misleading you have to admit, "The Remarkable Moment..." common there's nothing "remarkable" about this clip. it gives viewers the idea that it's going to be mid-robbery phone call.
Toast, your right well said.
I'd still trust the ex bank robber to treat me with more respect than a police officer tbf and I live in a pretty quiet city
It's not a stigma to be wary of an ex bank robber is it!
Armed Bank Robbers Deserve Equal Rights!
I wear body armour when I walk through town doing you tube videos of Friday / Saturday night violence.

The Met Police have far more problems and difficulties to face in London and they never seem to get credit for all the hard work they do to keep us safe.
Proving that sometimes the "tough guys" are in fact the biggest cry babies.
If this ex/thug has a conviction for using a firearm then complains about being treated poorly by the police he sounds like a huge cry baby whiner to me.
I'd like to see you say that whilst he's holding a gun to your head.
@@dean1039cry babies can use guns...
I've been arrested and questioned by the Met police. I was later cautioned- I have to say that I was treated professionally and with a lot of courtesy from the officers and I later wrote to the superintendent of the station to commend his officers. He wrote back to say that he doesn't normally get letters like that! I agree with the ex-convict, I wouldn't want to do their job for the world. Credit where it is due- they treated me professionally.
You write a letter to the police commending them for what should be standard procedure as they are public servants, wow that really shows how bad it must be and complete brown nosing from you
I can't look at Ferrari with out thinking of Shelly Winters.
