You have a gun pointed at your head

I'd probably put my army Ranger training to use. Run in a zig zag line while doing the odd duck and roll.

I would ask him if he really wanted to be known as the guy who robbed mother Theresa son,

or just tickle him.

The odds of him shooting and killing you are very low actually but still I would hand over the wallet and try to get the money later. If I was feeling brave maybe drop the wallet hoping the ticket would fall out and he wouldn't bother picking the ticket up.

Note: 2 million euro can't be collected at the garage so I wouldn't be there in the first place.

I have one of these in my wallet.

Gunman's not getting it.

The money? Sure, here dude, have it, lemme just get it in a fumbling not-trying-to-hide-fetching-the-little-knife-way.....

(honestly? he'd get the wallet & I'd throw the swisscard away in full view of him)

not yet

Or...I'd wink at him whilst saying something like, hello sailor how about me and you get a room.

Now if your very unlucky and he's that way inclinded, then your fcuked ha ha get it fcuked. I'm a funny knut so I am.

If you use the same numbers repeatedly, there will be a traceable show of that too (short version).

are you serious, id never remember that

I'd say, 'I don't know who you are but if you take my wallet. I will look for you. I will find you down and I will kill you.'

Alternatively I would give him the wallet. In any case I never have any money in it, my cards are maxed out and even my social welfare card is usesless as I'm not entitled to the dole. As for the winning lottery ticket I would never keep in my wallet. But if I did you can be sure it was already signed and I would have phoned the National lottery before I ever left the house. He would get nothing.

But in reality most of these small timers couldn't afford a gun. That's why they're robbing. If they stole a gun. They would sell it for good money.

I was caught up in a Post Office robbery once. Heard a scream as a woman, the Post Mistress ran away from the shop. Curious, I walked to the door just in time to see one of the robbers rushing towards the exit. Time stands still and I had time to consider smacking him on the face with my motorcycle helmet as he ran past. Then time to reconsider because I didn't know if his pal behind him had a gun or not. But even a pickaxe handle would have outgunned me.

He read my mind and said 'Don't do it mate' as he passed me. It all took less than twenty or thirty seconds. I'm no Chuck Norris let me tell you.

All very exciting.

Saw a TV programme a few years ago about bodyguards and security firms or something like that and they showed how to disarm someone when they are pointing a gun at your head, you grab their hand on the gun in a certain way so that they cant pull the trigger then using your other hand whip the gun away from them and point it at their head and hope they didnt see the same programme.

I would just do the above.

I was taking it serious till I noticed you were not going to hunt him down also.

Money can't replace health, I would give him the ticket and would go to the cops afterwards

That all sounds easy but takes many years of repetitive training, including the use of a breathing technique to keep one's adrenalin under control while distracting and using effective parrying, etc.

Start training now and maybe in five years you might be able pull something off like that half-successfully.

For a few million, one would try to remember and/or at least ask others (about times, etc) that you might have been with or your family/friends whom you left to go shopping/buy your ticket.

keithclancy

As soon as I found out I'd won I'd have signed the back of the ticket.

Then asshole would probably tried to have cashed it anyway and have gotten caught.

A friend of mine was on a bus with other refugees in Albania and the bus was stopped by bandits with Kalashnikov. The same guy was a boxer and has no fear and when the gun was put to his head and he was asked for his money (hidden in his shoe), He just said "No", So the bandit screamed at him and he replied "Shoot me", So they actually laid off him and thought he was crazy even the bus driver asked him to drive after it.

That's simply not true, where the hell did you hear that?

A guy who did some work for me was in an 18 worker syndicate that won €2,000,000 on the Lotto about 3 years ago. Syndicate was going for a few years, secretary's job to buy the ticket which she usually got in a Centra down the road.

Except, she didn't buy the winning one there, she got it in a petrol station in a totally different town. They asked her where she got it, she said the Centra out of habit, nothing was said to her that she was wrong and it was actually in the petrol station. They even asked her them to do a publicity photo in the station with the workers and the station owners which they duly did.

You can't seriously tell me that the Lotto will deny you the money because you can't remember where you got the ticket. A lot of them are bought on impulse in places far away from where the owner lives and the name of the shop is usually released in the day or two after the draw if it's a big winner.

I DID NOT say "the Lotto will deny you the money because you can't remember..."

It is just one of the various methods that they use!

The shop might get publicity by the way but any con-artist with the right stolen ticket will still have to get a lot of details right in order (in court) to match the real purchaser - including when the ticket was bought up to three/four days prior.

(Don't forget that sometimes the real purchaser also might have their traceable finger prints upon it too! Explain that one thief/con-man!)

Ooooo ya mucky pup!

"Oh and I won the pools last Saturday too, think I left the coupon in me kaks" :pac:

Tbh if you tell the robber there's a winning ticket in the wallet you leave him with an even bigger dilemma than you are in, total headfuck for him

I thinks it's a bit obvious that you are insinuating that the Lotto won't give you the cash if you can't remember.

Or maybe you can explain what "your done" means in the above post?

"Your done" above means that a thief is further caught out with an attempted guess at details whey are further from even remotely knowing.
Though that was obvious.

You wouldn't because you're untrained and weren't expecting any trouble when you got up that morning. Unlike the robber who will be pumped up on adrenalin or drugs. You on the other and would either be frozen with fear or completely surprised. If you did have the presence of mind to try that trick. You would die.

'Don't do it mate' was indeed wise advice from the robber I met.

I am not being a grammar Nazi but Biggins made the same mistake 3 times in 3 consecutive sentences. I only say this as I always thought Biggy Smalls was infallible.....the world just doesn't seem right any more, think it might be time to shut down Boards

I just humiliate him by disarming him endlessly :cool:

Either that or run away...

WumBuster

If the wallet is in your pocket, fumble in your pocket as if you're trying to find it whilst you're actually removing the ticket from the wallet, then say ''got it'' and hand over the wallet. Simples

I'm sure that there must be some process of collecting a Lotto jackpot even tho you've lost a ticket so I doubt you'll lose out on your jackpot. There is one for the bookies anyway!

What the hell is wrong with you people.
The correct way to handle a situation like this is to piss yourself then collapse on the floor shaking violently. The gunman will assume you are an epileptic and leave you be - however far from epileptic, it is in fact a millionaire that you are and you can immediately buy new trousers, thus having the last laugh on your foolish assailant.
