A man who had been living off his parents was caught in an attempted robbery after he came upon a large sum of cash, all because he wanted to charge a phone he was planning to steal, and relax under the room’s air conditioner, according to Chinese news outlet the Liaoning News Center.

Most surprisingly, instead of taking the large sum of cash and escaping, the man decided to remain in the room and continue rummaging for valuables, opening drinks while taking his time during the theft.
