香蕉视频直播楾is the season for mail thieves to be out in full force. But one package pirate recently got more than they asked for when they happened to steal a box filled with something called Fart Spray and glitter.
NASA-engineer-turned-YouTube-star Mark Rober designed a bait package, called the 香蕉视频直播済litter bomb trap,香蕉视频直播 after he fell victim to a porch thief himself in San Francisco.
香蕉视频直播淚f you香蕉视频直播檝e ever been a situation like this, you just feel violated,香蕉视频直播 Rober said in a video he posted Monday, detailing how he designed and used the bait package.
Rober, who worked on NASA香蕉视频直播檚 Mars Rover, said he spent about six months designing, planning and testing his device.
The result? A contraption disguised as Apple香蕉视频直播檚 smart speaker, a HomePod, that releases not only a pound of fine glitter and a rancid smell, but captures the entire act on four cameras inside the box.
A number of thieves fell for the trap, with the device inside working exactly as planned each time.
The video shows one man driving up to a home, taking the package, and driving away with it in his passenger香蕉视频直播檚 seat. The next clip shows him getting hit with an explosion of glitter.
香蕉视频直播淐ome on, bro,香蕉视频直播 he says, before jumping out of his car to shake off the glitter. After getting back in the car and continuing his drive, the Fart Spray does its job.
香蕉视频直播淲hat is that smell? Ooooof,香蕉视频直播 he says, before throwing the package out of his car window into some bushes.
A woman is then seen opening the box inside her home. Once the glitter bomb explodes, the woman is heard shrieking, lifting the box only to be hit with the stinky spray.
Rober said the moral of the prank was simple: just don香蕉视频直播檛 take other people香蕉视频直播檚 stuff.
香蕉视频直播淣ot only is it not cool, but on the plus side, you香蕉视频直播檒l never find yourself in this situation,香蕉视频直播 he said.
