I would never condone pickpocketing, but this is one awesome way to do it. Fully living up to the Chinese stereotype, a man in Zhengzhou was snapped trying to pinch an iPhone out of a woman’s pocket with a pair of chopsticks (via Cult of Mac). He pulled it off, however later turned himself in once the image went public.
I’m sure such a technique would have enormous success in London or Barcelona. Pickpockets, you might want to try it one day. You might struggle though, it takes some pretty amazing skills, especially as the Chinese guy managed to get the iPhone off a moving bicycle.
