Real thieves don't act that way- they act casual, just like the guy in the video. Having grown up in NYC, I can assure you that few people would confront or even NOTICE someone cutting a bike chain off. If the crime does not involve someone being hurt, most people in large cities will choose not to get involved or put themselves at risk.
