I was on a bike tour in a rough part of Buenos Aires (Argentina) in broad daylight when a thief attempted to steal my camera gear at gunpoint. I miraculously happened to be recording with a gopro on my forehead and captured this amazing piece of footage!!
But this won't stop us from visiting all 195 countries and getting that Global Degree!
Watch: man films attempted gunpoint robbery on GoPro
A tourist travelling to every country in the world captures the terrifying moment an alleged robber points a gun at him in Buenos Aires, Argentina
A traveller on a quest to visit 195 countries was stopped in his tracks by a man who appeared to be robbing him at gunpoint.
YouTube user "Mike Graziano" was riding a bicycle in what he called a "rough part" of Buenos Aires, Argentina when a man on a motorbike pulled out in front of his path.
Swerving to avoid a crash, the tourist continued his journey but was soon approached by the motorcyclist who held a gun and demanded he give him his "mochila" ("backpack" in English).
Despite not being able to speak Spanish,"Mike Graziano" managed to placate the man's anger by calling him an "amigo" ("friend"). In his confusion, he handed over his bike instead of his backpack.
He then made his escape by running down the street and hitching a ride with other cyclists to safety.
