'Jewellery-stealing' prank takes off in China

The prank involves people trying on expensive jewellery in a shop, then running for the door, as if they are going to steal it, before stopping to look in a mirror and is believed to copy the 'shoe-stealing' prank that was made popular by Indonesian influencer Harvinth Skin

It's all fun until an employee catches before you reach the mirror.

[biglee]

I didn't know jewelry store employ ninjas disguised as cashiers.

[icarus]

Tried the same thing at a gun store....making this comment from heaven

[piccolina]

They are so excited to look at themselves in the mirror.

[JSerrato]

Everybody gangsta till the employees pull out a glock

[sassychang]

Try this in America and we'll see what happens 😂

[bodhibowers]

This is really cruel to the employees, but it's still funny as hell XD

[LongIslandCityLayout]

As funny as this is, there's no reason to give the store employees a literal heart attack.

In America the store clerks are too fat to hop over the counter. They just will throw the Subway sandwich they're eating at the person....

[rishabhpranav]

*_So this is why they also keep a portable mirror near in jewelry shops of India_*

[amasaro]

It is so adorable how each shop keeper holds his face in his hand in shame.

[IAMASELENATOR]

The way the employees take a breath of relief 🤣🤣🤣

[silkqueen]

This had me 😂😂 especially when the employee stops because they stopped😝

[王楠-uz]

I feel pity for the jewelry store employees. It's not a good joke.

[rahulhingve]

Rich guys making fun of poor hardworking guys trying to earn a living....

[syxx]

Could we just have a minute and respect the jumping and crossing skills of All these People

[divyanshkaushal]

After the lady reaches the mirror:
The employee:UNDERSTANDABLE HAVE A NICE DAY

[jackymafiausa]

I notice everyone of employees touches their heads after they found out it was a joke.

[abhijithshaji]

Everything is joke until there is no mirror
