Sorry, but hes a fool. Not interested in meeting him.

I'd rather meet a brave fool than a clever coward any day.

Really? Whys that?

Because I respect bravery over cowardice.

Usuay im a BBC Breakfast guy, but just thought i'd had a cheeky look at itv.
Watched the headlines and he's on the main headlines, brilliant!! (I cheered as if i knew him!!)

Good on the chap, yep he may have risked his life but if i was in trouble, i'd want him around!!2 types of people, Thinkers and doers, the thinkers neg themselves out, the doers get on with it!

Just because the blokes braver than some of us, theres no need to knock him! Put what ever stupidity spin you like on it, but in the end he was brave and commendable and wasn't prepared to sit back and let someone get away with attempted robbery

You also respect foolishness over using intelligence. I'm not surprised.

Why are posts on here often so cynical and negative 
Watched the news this morning and seems it was more a case of he called the robbers bluff ! he had no idea to begin with that the gun was fake or that he did not have an accomplice . Yes it could have all gone horribly wrong but it didn't.
I know I would not have had the guts to do what he did but why knock him ?
Braver man than me, well done !

[G Griffin]

If there was no risk it wouldn't have been so brave, would it?
Some see the risk more than they see the bravery and vice versa.
We should see both, really. But then again, it doesn't matter what we think, does it?

I don't think anyone is ever a total fool, nor do I think anyone is always intelligent.  But I do think that we all face situations and we have a choice of turning a blind eye or stepping upto the mark.

Tony's brother stepped upto the mark; he was tested and was found not to be wanting.

This 'bank robber' was probably a nasty bit of work and due to Tony's brother, he's locked up for a long stretch.

I can't see how anyone would even begin to criticise him for it.  The man deserves nothing but praise.

I know what you are saying, but wonder how his family would feel if he died or was seriously injured "having a go". Thankfully he wasn't hurt so we will never know of course.

Conversely, how would someone elses family feel if a member of their family was hurt and he had the option to do something...but didn't?

Its a tough scenario and one we probably will never experience.

At the end of the day, he wasn't saving someone life by jumping in a frozen pond. Thats a hero!!!
 Someone robbing a bank is just robbing, robbing Bas%ards anyway  should have waited till he robbed them, then followed then round corner and nicked all the money

I like the fact that on the tv interview it said he was having a bad day collecting money  good on him though !!

[Herve garrot]

if everyone had the mindset of that jd all the hoodies would laugh out loud. keep minding your own business mate.if one day you ever happen to get mugged or attacked by some yobs i bet you would be glad if some ( so called idiots) stepped in to help you. ta

I wouldn't risk, potentially, my life for a banks money or for anyone’s money. It's just money.

It's different say if a woman is being raped or something serious like that. Then I'd do what ever I could.

Do you think that the type of bloke who attempts to rob a bank leads a virtuous life outside of bank robbery?

I seriously doubt it.  He's in nick and I bet lots of folk benefit from that.
