Pictures: Darth Vader robs bank

Crime does not pay, okay folk? Nor is crime cool.

However,if you wanted to have a go at a crime which could pay – you might try robbing a bank. If you wanted to be cool – you could rob a bank dressed as Darth Vader.

Hey! It’s a valid tactic. People would be confused. They’d comply while expecting a secret camera to pop out from behind the scenes and the MTV legal form, waiving your rights to make any money from the clip, to be pushed under your nose.

The New York blog, The Gothamist, has their own take on this geeky crime.
