When you see a robbery unfolding right in front of you.
6
So, what do you do?
7

17
Triple zero, quick!
18
Yep, yep, yep.
19
Call the cops!
20
Yeah, we're talking Aussie legends right there.
21
Shirtless and shoeless mates, James Ross Munro and Kane Wiblin,
22
snapped into gear, filming their heroic antics as they stopped an alleged getaway car and chased the culprits down the street.
23
And we are thrilled to say that James and Kane join us.
24
Now good morning to you boys.
25
Yes, absolutely.
26
Round of Aussie applause.
27
So James, let's start with you because we love the video, but take us back to what was happening leading up to that moment.
28
Well, we'd been down at Options Tavern at a Stubbies
29
and Singlets party and got dropped off by a mate up the road and started to walk down the survey,
30
get some noodles and went to jump over a side on the way and slipped over and busted my plugger.
31
That's so astray.
32
You busted a plugger.
33
So you've got a busted plugger.
34
A single in shorts part.
35
What are you seeing that's happening at the servo?
36
Pretty concerned about my blowout I had and looked up and yeah, looked up
37
and saw a white I saw a white Commodore pull up two blokes with shirts around their faces
38
and sort of thought something was a bit sus so better go and check it out.
39
And what did you see next?
40
Grabbed the keys out of the ignition while they were inside the Oportos and yeah, it just unfolded from there.
41
There was no plan, it was just go with it and set it up.
42
Hey brother, you had your shirt off at the time too, which means that you were in full in front of that.
43
Was there a time that it occurred to you that your life might be in great peril?
44
When I first jumped in the car I sort of took a step back thinking, oh shit has this blake got a knife?
45
Yeah.
46
And then I saw he had his hands empty
47
and he was just trying to cover his face so I jumped back in and yeah, just went from there.
48
You look like you got reasonable guns, you've been working out in the gym, you look reasonable buddy.
49
I don't go to the gym.
50
I've been to the gym in years.
51
The only gym I go to is Gym Beam.
52
That's about it.
53
James, it's Silby here.
54
I've got to ask, I understand you're married.
55
What did your wife make of all this when you got home and told her what had happened?
56
I'm not actually married as yet.
57
That was my manager that hacked my Facebook when I was getting married.
58
But, yeah, she was more concerned that I broke the brand new pair of pluggers that she bought me on Thursday night.
59
Yeah, of course.
60
So did you actually get to see these guys when they came out?
61
What was their reaction?
62
Only just briefly.
63
Yeah, only briefly.
64
Briefly, just got to see sort of just the top half of their faces and saw the passengers.
65
I got a good look at him.
66
Yeah.
67
And, yeah, so, yeah, they got away pretty quickly.
68
Once they realised their keys were gone, they weren't hanging around for very long.
69
No. They were gone.
70
Hey, Cain, obviously you're the sense in this great duo.
71
You're like the Robin to the Batman.
72
The Robin, yeah.
73
Yeah.
74
He is short and fast.
75
I was the one thinking about getting stabbed.
76
Because you were filming so they would go for you first.
77
Yeah, that's exactly right.
78
But you kept filming manfully and you've already received close to 2 million views on YouTube.
79
How does it feel to be this famous?
80
We only put it up there just to get a couple of laughs initially.
81
It's just unreal that it's just gone.
82
He's just blown out of control.
83
Yeah, it's been shed everywhere around.
84
Yeah, yeah.
85
Yeah, yeah.
86

87
Yeah.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
