Vandal almost gets caught, then returns to the scene for his camera
While filming himself tagging a subway car in Germany, this punk is discovered by transit station employees. He makes a successful break for it, but then realizes he forgot his camera and daringly returns.
As much as I dislike the guy for destroying property and thinking he’s doing something artistically valuable, I have to admit that he created a truly inspiring cinematic moment about 50 seconds in…

It goes Satan, Murderers, Rapists, Pedophiles, Kidnappers, then Vandals.
come on thieves and greedy bankers before vandals
Okay, I hate graffiti (unless it’s graffiti art in a designated area, even then I still don’t get the appeal) and I believe people who vandalise should get maximum hours of community service, however, I couldn’t help but laugh and this. It’s just the running bit at the end with the music. It’s just funny.
The guy did nothing that warrants calling him a punk or a vandal. You all need to get off the bandwagon of meaningless hate.
Banksy is a tool bag, just like this guy.
Sounds like you’re a punk too.
Dibs on spraypainting your car.
But he needs us out-of-touch, bourgeois haters. Without people thinking he’s doing something anti-social his work would have no meaning whatsoever. Without an establishment there’s no need for subversion.
Without those of us who think he’s a criminal, he would have no shtick. So we’re actually his biggest supporters.
Go Banksy!
Spot on, Abraham!
He was destroying public property, that’s why he was wearing a mask and why he ran.
