This past Wednesday night, an armed man walked into a Kansas City, Missouri, Jimmy John’s, pointed his gun at the cashier, and demanded money. What’s remarkable about the CCTV footage, though, is the cashier’s calm throughout the robbery:

The slide on the gun jammed. That gun wouldn't even fire like that.

If you look closely, you can see the gun actually jammed due to a "stovepipe" error. That's when the round gets hung up and blocks the slide

The employee is very lucky! If you notice the suspect racks the gun and the slide gets stuck to the rear so the gun will not fire. Wow.

They guy was calm because the moron criminal can't rack a slide. https://t.co/EoPaDOl6M2

He seen gun was jammed and did not want robber to unjam it so he gave him money calmly.

Jammed weapon aside, that was definitely a good call on the cashier’s part.
