World's dumbest man

Duct tape around his head? Can you just imagine trying to take that ***** off? What, he couldn't go with painter's masking tape? It hurts my head to think of the stupidity, almost as much as his head will hurt taking the tape off.

Heard about this last night and thought, "what a maroon!"

See, this is why I could never be a successful thief. Not only do I have a morality issue with taking things that aren't mine, I am not QUITE stupid enough to convince myself that I could pull it off. And that's without using duct tape masks, writing bank robber notes on the back of my own deposit slip, not being able to get OUT of the place I broke into....you know...the usual idiot thief tricks!

Apart from the sheer stupidity of wrapping his head in duct tape this really made me laugh.

Quote from article:
"Kazee, in an interview with the TV station, denied he was bandit who robbed the store of two rolls of change."

So as Mr. Kazee was just walking down the street with his head wrapped in duct tape and the real robber, also with his head wrapped in duct tape, ran past him confusing the store owner who started to chase the wrong guy?

I've seen some incredible coincidences in the past, but that would be very funny.

Really, just pulling that tape off would be punishment enough.

Apparently, this story has a sad ending, as I saw on TV. It seems the dummy sweated so much under the tape that it didn't stick very well, and came right off. Justice is not always poetic.

But what about his hair? Surely it stuck to that?

That could backfire on you.
