And the result? Simply brilliant. And hilarious.
How many tales of mistaken identity end with accidentally stealing someone's car for 45 minutes? This guy noticed something was off after he noticed the car seats. Good thing there weren't any kids in them. People make incredibly stupid mistakes all the time, like this woman who had groceries delivers and failed all over the place.
A street performing monkey in Indonesia was caught on video trying to drag a toddler away. The toddler didn't suffer any physical injuries. If there's one lesson at least from this encounter it's that monkeys are stronger than you'd expect.
