A mugger in Baltimore, Maryland learned a hard lesson about picking his victims, getting his behind spectacularly whooped after attempting to rob the wrong guy.

In an audio-less security clip, which has recently made the rounds on r/PublicFreakout, the would-be thief quickly realized he started a fight he could not finish, proceeding to get absolutely pummeled after punching a man standing outside of what appears to be a bar in the early hours of the morning.

After several moments of all-out brawling, the man in question getting slammed to the ground on three separate occasions by his near victim, several staffers and patrons rush through the doors attempting to break up the spat.

Though the attempted robber made a run for it, heading off into the night, one thing is certain — he will most definitely think twice before trying to rob someone twice his size.
