A clip of a robber getting a lot more than he bargained for after attempting to rob a man who was walking nearby. While it is unclear how old the video is, Twitter user @DanielMarven explained that the incident happened in Hillbrow.

In the short clip, the robber can be seen trying to grab hold of the pedestrian who walks past him and a bunch of other men. When the pedestrian pulls away, the robber starts to follow him but soon stops as he realises that his victim is pulling out a gun.

The man then retreats and appears to be apologising to his would-be victim who is now pointing the gun directly at the thug. Surprisingly, the men around them all continue with what they were doing, almost oblivious to what was unfolding before them.

"Hillbrow criminal who always robs pedestrians nearly saw his maker," Daniel captioned the clip.

Meanwhile, locals had this to say:

"His draw is very dangerous though. Was very slow and could have got him shot if these ninjas were strapped."

"Entlek owning a pistol is very important."

"This guy reminds me of my cousin who was chased by a guy who had a knife but he had a fully loaded gun."
