Asking Home Depot for Criminal Advice.

Summary

The video follows a man at Home Depot asking employees for increasingly suspicious “home-invasion” advice. He starts by asking how to force open a locked door, then brings up cutting through glass, disabling security cameras and motion lights, and finding rope to tie up a family as a “practical joke.” Some employees respond cautiously, while others make it clear they don’t know—or don’t want to help.

The prank continues outside the store, where he tries to recruit a passerby for a supposed burglary involving a house full of diamonds. Even the promise to split the loot doesn’t sway the man, who firmly refuses and says he wants nothing to do with it. The humor comes from the prankster’s increasingly outrageous excuses and the uncomfortable, blunt reactions of the employees and stranger.
