So, I haven’t posted on here in a while (around here we have this funny little tradition we like to call “finals”), but this story was too amazing to pass up.
Chuck Norris protects baker
Store bosses have seen off burglars by placing a life-sized photo of Hollywood action star Chuck Norris in the window.
The posh bakery shop in Split, Croatia, had been broken into almost every week until they put up the poster of the karate champ with a sign saying: “This shop is under the protection of Chuck Norris.”
Now the bakery hasn’t had a single burglary for more than a month.
Sales assistant Mirna Kovac said: “To be honest we just started it as a joke but it really has worked. Thieves haven’t been anywhere near us for ages. People seem to respect him.
“Everyone around here has seen his films and he’s quite a popular character, perhaps even among criminals, so they’ve decided to leave us alone.”
She added though: “We have had a few customers come in and ask us whether they can get Chuck’s autograph. They really believe he is sitting in our storeroom out the back ready to pounce on any burglars.”
