Gone in 60 seconds? No, still there after 10 minutes, actually

Perhaps he thought if he waited around long enough, the bike would steal itself

WE'VE seen the videos of thieves snapping steering locks and making off with bikes in seconds. But don't worry, there are definitely some really incompetent ones out there.

This CCTV footage shows a man hanging around an unsecured motorcycle, apparently procrastinating, for nearly 10 minutes before finally turning it around and wheeling it off, crashing into every nearby parked car along the way. 

It was posted on YouTube on Monday with no explanation other than a title saying: 'Motorcycle thief - Newcastle Upon Tyne.'

It's not clear whether the man actually takes the bike, as he wheels it out of shot in one direction and then walks off in the other. 

A post sharing it on Reddit calls it an 'attempted motorcycle theft in Newcastle area'. 

Know him?
