@Lukasz Fabis: The difference is that lil' lost robot was not carrying visible dollar bills.


@hyewarrior: Hmm... they might not have shown it in the video, but I guess it's possible that someone would have beat the robot up if it was left out long enough. Reply

@Hello Mister Walrus: thought those people were just standing around it? i'm sure there were a couple pondering how to get that money out.


feel sorry for the real beggar who was told to move along by the police while he then proceeded to take pics of the robot. Reply
