Recently, a man walked into China Construction Bank in Shanghai with a meat cleaver. He apparently wanted to rob the bank. Things did not go as planned. The man entered the bank, while talking on the phone. When he looked like he was going to pull the fire alarm, a guard supposedly shouted at him. The man then pulled the cleaver and allegedly told the teller, "This is a robbery." The teller, safe behind glass, chuckled as the man continued to talk on the phone. According to Xinhuanet, police took the would-be robber into custody to question his motive and evaluate his mental faculties. They might want to examine his criminal ones, too. Naturally, GIFs of the amused bank teller are currently making the rounds on popular Chinese sites. The other customer quickly leaves, with the teller looking confused - and then smiling - as she turns to speak to a superior. Meanwhile, security guards approach the man - believed to be mentally ill and who, despite wielding the blade, was not acting in a particularly threatening manner - and haul him to the ground. "Just stare at my meat cleaver for a sec and let the fear set in while I take this call....."
