U.S. Tourist kills mugger with bare hands

"SAN JOSE, Costa Rica - An American tourist who watched as a U.S. military veteran in his 70s used his bare hands to kill an armed assailant in Costa Rica"

That's one bad-ass mofo! :thumbs:
 
a cool story n i dunno but kinda funny too. more crooks need to be dispatched in this manner. maybe some would think twice.
 
Love it when this happens overseas. Here in the states the old fella would not have had his right to defend himself, his rights to privacy, nor his right not to be bothered by the press recognized. Complete respect for the man !!!
 
Dude, great story. Can you imagine being a 25yr old guy in that group, watching the old man come to the rescue? That would be humbling, to say the least.

And props to Costa Rica and the cruise line for keeping the guy's info to themselves.
 
Carnival Cruise should pick up his tab. My hat is off to this guy.

Eh, the American pride did spill over...

"Afterward, the tourists drove Segura to a hospital, where he was declared dead."

How nice of them!
 
I'm still confused as to how 2 armed men couldn't do anything while the other mugger was getting choked out. Pussies...

well they were probably a little stunned.
And I mean, It only takes a few seconds to kill someone that way.
He probably squished his breathing pipe, and he died minutes later of asphyxiation.
 
He's probably an ex-Marine or ex-Army who still gets up at 6AM every morning to workout.

HEY! We already went over this. There are no ex-Marines... only former Marines! yut yut!

Yeah I know but you'd think if the other 2 saw their man getting choked out they'd start shanking the American immediately.

Most armed criminals (thugs, muggers) are pussies in general. They prey on the old and weak.

Their only "ace in the hole" was the guy with a gun. He gets neutralized in a few mere seconds by a 70 year old man. Yea... I'm not surprised they ran. They probably pissed themselves in the process.
 
Great story.

I'm willing to bet that this was how it went down.
 
I'd bet the two with knives were a couple of kids.

They could have been adults.

Think about it; how many successful muggings do you think they did? Even more so with a gun? Then, out of the blue, one of their muggings not only falls to shit, but they lose their gun-man in seconds. That sort of a cluster-fuck would cause many adults to panic and run.
 
Could have been adults or kids. I was just putting together that they ran and also they had knives rather than a gun. It just seems like kid stuff to me. Like an older leader with two hoods.
