I'm a little confused what's going on here, did they just take the one lens? why, when the guy realised they had taken something, did he seem to walk somewhere else?

Whenever I shoot with a heavy bodied film camera I always think if a thief tries to steal my camera I'll just whack the bastard over the head with it.

Meh, sure those guys might be pretty good, but you and I could easily do it, were it not for the added camera switch release, but the general distraction part isn't that tricky, the tricky part is being able to know what to do if/when you're about to be caught.

These guys seem pretty professional. They must have rehearsed this quite a bit.

How are there that many camera lenses to steal that they are that practiced?

Just one more reason Russia would make a better ocean that it does a country.

I like to think it's never too late.

From watching their dash cam videos though I'd have to think that they'll eventually wipe themselves off the map with little to no intervention from the outside world.
