A backpacking filmmaker in Buenos Aires captured the footage of his life in a video uploaded to YouTube Tuesday, which showed a motorcycle-riding, gun wielding thief trying to steal his backpack full of $4,000 in camera equipment.
Alexander Hennessy was shooting a bike ride through a La Boca neighborhood with his GoPro when the thief suddenly cut him of on a motorcycle and rode alongside the filmmaker, brandishing a pistol and demanding his backpack.

Hennessy later revealed on Reddit that he refused to give up the backpack because of the expensive camera equipment, which included a hard drive full of footage necessary to complete his show “Global Degree,” which follows a group of guys attempting to set foot in 195 countries around the world.
