In addition;
Get a "Beware of the Dog" sign, place some used chewing toys on your porch and a leash with a BIG collar in the yard.
+BobvanKay Maybe put a head on a stake for good measure. :P
+larryinc64 that too! 👌🏼
that was a carrot top prop joke from the 90s: a 30 pound four foot long dog bone to lay in your front yard.
+Guitars Gods & Guns A paintball gun works well too ! My brother lives in Dallas and caught a guy climbing thru a window and plastered the guy with bright yellow paint. He was easy to find for the police.
excellent
he was probably thinking " why are you here". I bet he knew you had been gone for a while and was surprised you were back
My son installed 2 outside cameras and 2 inside cameras and I can watch my house from my laptop no matter where I go. When I went on vacation for a week to SC, I could look at my home anytime I wanted. My son also had it set up to view on his computer at work whenever he wanted. It gave me a feeling of security.
That sounds like an ideal security setup, Mary. Is it still working for you?
"The gentleman who broke into the door last night..."
Gentlemen don't break into homes.
That Haunted Mansion placard by the front door looks very heavy. You could clobber someone with it. Keep it there.
My door mat says this, "There is nothing inside worth dying for in this home."
Admiral Preparedness Awesome!
mine says ''we don't call the police''
I don't give them that kind of warning. The locked doors should tell them all they need to know. Once inside,muzzle flash will be the last thing they see.
You should get those wooden rods and you can place them in the window tracks. The thick kind will not allow a intruder to open the window. 💜
Him asking "why" would have sent me into another orbit. Glad you weren't hurt and your valuables weren't taken.
I can't believe he yelled "WHY?" I'm sorry to laugh but that is freakin hilarious. He probably took one look at the Giant of a man that is Adam the Woo, and completely wen't stupid. I'm really glad to see you are safe. I'm hoping this year get better for you. I know it will.
This is so odd. Just yesterday while watching your vlog, I thought to myself I hope you have a housesitter since you're basically advertising to a large audience that your house will be empty while you're on vacation.
Myself, I tend to leave a light on the bottom floor and second story of my house. I also have a sign out front advertising my security system. I've lived in my home so far for many years without a break-in (knock on wood).
+Dean Strickson Very good point about all of us knowing where Adam is and what he is doing practically 24/7. Adam needs a roommate. I nominate Justin Scarred.
+Dean Strickson Right On! Don't advertise an empty house. At least let it be known that someone will be at the house while your gone. The lights and a tv or radio is good too. The power bill is nothing compared to what the losses can be.
Me too!
+Dean Strickson Really, Justin should stay there sometimes while Adam is away.
Definitely need something in place when you are publicly announcing all the time where you are!
A good reminder why ppl shouldnt announce on Facebook that they are going/are on vacation. It is basically an open invitation for thieves to rob your house and can take their time doing it.
This is why I have a gun lol
+WastinAwayFilms That's why I like the state I live in, i'm allowed to have more than 10 rounds in a magazine!
#florida
WastinAwayFilms
That's exactly where I live, and I also have my CWP as well.
+WastinAwayFilms What would a gun have done to help you in this situation? If you would have shot him then you'd be in trouble if he wasn't armed.
Adam didn't need a gun.
OMG I had to come back to revisit this! Holy crap!!! Time flies!!!!
Someone broke into my house a few years ago......and the feeling when I got home and noticed my personal space had been violated never left me while still living there....I eventually moved a couple years later
This happened to me in 1992 and it never left me either..... I loved that place but I was happy to move also
I’m so careful now ...
That sounds terrifying.
My family were burgled many years ago when I was very young and we were all asleep at the time so we didn't have a run in with them like yourself. But that feeling that someone has been in your house with out permission is horrible!
I'm so glad you are OK, things can be replaced but you can't :)
ahahaha "Why?" lol. Glad nothing Bad happened. Stay safe Adam
+logan kerr That had me chuckling. Why did he think Adam was going to call the police? What a question. Almost as if the guy trying to break in thought he wasn't doing anything wrong, that he had every right to break into a house that didn't belong to him. Boggles the mind how some of these criminals think.
+Nora Dennis usually criminals are not thinking
+logan kerr I died at that part.
***** Point taken. :)
+logan kerr Maybe he was a time traveler who couldn't figure out why his key did not work ;-)
Stay safe Adam. Glad you're alright!
I bet he was high out of his mind and thought he was locked out of his own house.
That's exactly what I thought
+Jason LaFave That happened to an empty apartment I lived next to. It was empty, nothing of value, nothing to take. A drunk guy broke in, thinking it was his. He was on the wrong floor.
Jason LaFave I thought the same thing. I'm personally glad Adam didn't have a gun for this reason. The way he reacted I bet he was high or drunk and thought he was somewhere else.
I wonder if the guy actually watched this video about him trying to break in?
Scary that this happened to you. The way we usually protect our home is through a security alarm system. If anybody enters the doors, we know. The only windows close to the ground are in my room really, but when we go away on a long break, I'll always prop my big dresser up in front of the windows so that it is a nightmare to even try entering through the window. I've never experienced a break in, but I can only imagine how terrifying it is and I would never wish it to happen to anybody. If all else fails, we have a dog who is extremely overprotective of us. If anybody outside of our home even gets close to the door, he barks ferociously at them until they go away.
Thank god you were just arrived! Probably that SOB was checking out the house for a few days thinking you were still out!!
wow that sucks well at least you are ok adam
Had the same tragic event of waking up to glass breaking an it was someone trying to break into my home via a window. Scary feeling, I can relate.
It's an awful feeling! We had someone break in whilst we were sleeping. We installed an alarm system, it helps me sleep better at night. We've replaced the things they took, but we will never get back the security we felt in our home. Stay safe. X
Weepin' for TheWoo. Unbelievable, Adam! ...Columbo-like-skills gonna see-u-thru this. We're all with you, big guy.
I'm sorry to hear someone tried to break into your house. It's good they didn't succeed and that you're okay. On the bright side, at least the damage was just to the handle of a screen door that can easily be replaced instead of a busted window or door. It's funny that one of your thoughts during the incident was to Periscope it happening lol, but then at least you would have them on video. He's lucky you didn't go full hulk on him. Even though you have a kindhearted soul, you still look like you could do some serious damage to someone. Definitely consider getting a security system and cameras so you can catch the intruder if it happens again. I've had my house broken into a couple years ago and had the majority of my valuables stolen, which caused me to become extremely paranoid and developed trust issues with others. It feels terrible knowing someone was in your house and stole items you worked for to purchase, but you eventually come to mind that they're just objects like you said. My house is now protected by multiple locks and a NetworX security system. I even lock my bedroom door every time I leave the house or go to sleep. We're planning on installing cameras as well so it'll catch whoever tries to break-in next time. Stay safe and positive, Adam!
+Frankie Washburn I'm glad you mentioned locking the bedroom door. It's another layer of security and can give the resident more time to do whatever should be done whether it's moving furniture against the door or calling the police or climbing out the window or some combination of all three. I own almost nothing of value. If someone breaks into my tiny efficiency apartment they're going to be very disappointed unless they're looking for my moderately-priced netbook that's five years old and lot second-hand books!
I recommend Smith & Wesson's home security system chambered in .357
MakerInMotion with a sharpened Axe just for menace
MakerInMotion I started carrying the Colt Python combat magnum in 1965 Vietnam and fell in love with the weapon ,I've carried a 4 inch barrel Python loaded with 240 grain magnum loads since 1970 ,just the sight ofbtbkse massive rounds peeking out the cylinder makes drug addict thieves Dick s shrink .
Adam, Im so sorry you've had a rough start this year, but the year is still young! Hang in there.
Oh my word! I'm so sorry that happened to you. I'm glad you're okay. Take care.
In Texas we shoot first and ask questions later :)
NC does too.
lil red
Same with Vegas.
As close as we are to Cali , that’s where we differ.
Cali super liberal , Vegas is still the Wild Wild West.
💥🔫
I can't believe that someone will do that!!! And then ask why?! Wow!
Shoeless Woo at 1:34.
time flies I remember watching this when you released it. Still don't know why this was recommended...perhaps to hit the like button.
Maybe it's a suscriber who likes to watch your videos and thinks you're still out of town and thought he had the opportunity to break into your home. I hope you are feeling better and be safe.
You should have told him to keep the change ya filthy animal..
I like to smoke a woo while I watch AdamtheWoo
CrunkKrow .....ME TOO!
people who break into homes and steal things are the worst. my home has been broken into twice last year all within a few days of each other, both times money was stolen from us but you're right its not so much the things they take what has the affect it has is the having your home, your "safe" place broken into by a stranger that gets to you. for many nights after I didn't sleep and even still I will do a sweep of the house to make sure everything is secure and locked away safely. as for protecting the house we're just looking to move away to a better area as there's nothing but issues here. I'm glad you're safe Adam.
Got this on recommended after the new looking back video!
be ready Adam most criminals are very stupid and return to the scene of the crime
Glad you're ok Adam, I suggest you practice your 2nd Amendment right!
Hey Adam I just put extra secured locks on the windows, broom stick in the slidding door, security gate on front door and motion lights. I did all work myself and spent 400 for more secure life living here in beautiful downtown Bakersfield Ca. Anyways thanks for vlogs and hope your new year gets better.
WOW That is scary .I am glad that you are ok my friend.Yes putting up video cameras and getting a security system are very good ideas to keep the woo man safe and sound :-)
How violating! Look into simplisafe home security; you install it yourself and it's super affordable. initially you pay about $200 for the materials, then $15 a month for emergency services...
Don't allow that bottom feeding parasite take away your peace of mind!
glad you are okay. I would suggest getting a security system, camera system, a gun, and a dog.
lucky it didn't happen while you were away, it's a horrible feeling coming back home to find you've been broken into
This was just randomly recommended to me and I feel so guilty for chuckling at this situation. The “WHY?!!” and the fact that he was perched like a 1940s movie prowler just ended me. Also? 2016 was off to a horrid start- little did we know what 2020 would bring. Thanks for the laughs Adam. We appreciate you, your humor, your adventures and I personally love your music taste.
this is why I own firearms
I never understand when anyone calls any kind of criminal a “ gentleman” !!! An” gentle man” is just that - a GENTLE man! He’s a scumbag thief and lawbreaker! Call that loser what he is!
If you're renting, ask the property manager to upgrade security on windows and door to protect their investment too.
A rough month indeed it has been, but a New month is almost here. Stay safe Adam
That sucks. Do you ever worry about being youtube famous, and that bringing on stuff like what happened to you last night?
I'm not famous on youtube, but I do sometimes worry about who's watching. There's creepy people out there.
Door stop alarm wedges ($ 10-15), aluminum little league baseball bat, ($ 20-25), bear spray ($ 25), self defense course, a new found respect for the 2nd Amendment?
Aww Adam, I hope your 2016 gets a lot better. Ahh hunny. I just want to give you a big hug.
Adam, so very sorry that happened!!!! Don't forget to breathe. I wish you all the best and thankful you're safe
Smith&Wesson keep me and mine safe
How do I protect my home? My M&P 9mm with a Streamlight TLR1 light.
A home I was renting was broken into while I was at work almost 4 years ago and it still makes me paranoid. I can't imagine being home when it actually happened! Glad you're okay and hope he doesn't come back for his sake.
Sir, hopefully next month goes better for you! It seemed as though your year was improving with your little "vacation," but then something like this happens... On the bright side, your year can only improve from here. (Hopefully)
Sorry for this rough patch, but hopefully it is a little comforting to know we (about 30k of us) are all rooting for you!
Adam get a gun for home defense. if he would have broken in and WAS armed, what would you have done? what COULD u have done? not much. scary thought... the thought of him getting in and finding u being that u aren't armed either... scary man..
Your an adult American and you don't own a firearm? C'mon man! :)
Sorry to hear that Adam. We have external cameras on all sides of the house with two on the front porch. One close up and one at a distance. One is on the peak of my garage pointing at the drive making it blatantly clear there is surveillance in progress. There great to have. Lorex is a good brand of camera system with reasonable prices. We have been broken into so I know the feeling. Wishing you well brother... Keep on keeping on!
im glad you're ok Adam .. God Bless ..
I have my own security cameras dog and 2 guns 9mm and a 45acp. and soon to have a ar15 also
A Remington 810 Shotgun Fixes All..........................Take Care Adam.
Poor Adam, sorry you've had a rough January😬. This person probably became aware that no one had been home for awhile, great story though! Time to get a dog🐶!
Here in Texas, we would be looking at "remanants" of the perpetrator, not a screen door handle. I don't know how a person can get into the frame of mind to think that it would be a good idea to break into or steal from anyones home. Glad you are okay, Adam.
I know everyone says having a gun is the best defense but the reality is most normal individuals will not react like action movie stars when presented with a situation like that. it's very easy for people to say, just shoot them. law enforcement spends countless hours training for situations like this. I'm always amazed that the average joe thinks they can just kill a person without a second thought even if they are breaking into your home. one really needs to know what the laws are for using deadly force. the best defense is always a good offense. most criminals are looking for an easy target. making your home look like it's well protected is key. cameras, even fake decoys, alarm systems or even just a sign, and evidence that a dog is on the property are all good ideas. if you're going to be gone for extended periods of time it's a good idea to put things like lights, tvs, or stereo systems on timers to make it appear as if someone is home.
+Jeffrey Murrell You are so right, Jeffrey. I know from experience that when a real-life situation occurs and there's real danger someone doesn't just get the gun and start shooting. I once had to hold someone at gunpoint to protect a family member and it was a horrible experience. Terrible as it sounds and without going into detail I wish I had been able to go ahead and shoot. Just squeezing that trigger is extraordinarily difficult; truly easier said than done.
+Jeffrey Murrell Just SHOWING a gun can make the difference. I stopped a knife attack on a couple 20 years ago just by pulling my revolver out (attacker took off). Good sequence is call out you have a gun, show the gun, fire a warning shot, aim below the waist, if necessary - centermass shot.
Lol no actually cops go to civilian training schools if they want real training. The standards at the police academy are so low, most cops have trouble hitting their targets 10% of the time according to studies. This is all fact. Cops have very very low level training in reality. You don't understand. Their firearm training is complete garbage across the country. This is actually a major issue no one talks about.
Is that a Blue Demon T-shirt? looks like it.
+FaithTheSlayer Or Lucha Underground
New subscriber here...glad you're OK, Adam!
Thank goodness you're safe! That robber sounds like he was kind of crazy. His response of why was really bizarre. Definitely get some sort of security.
Call 911 First and weight in the dark with my Mossberg 12 gauge or Glock 30 45 acp !! I Don't give Warnings !! and Yes to the Video Camera !! Weapons are the Last Resort !!
Billy Bates Jr exactly how much does the dark weigh?
Mine is protected by the second amendment
our home is protected by a Springfield Armory XDM 40cal, a Mossberg 590 twelve gauge, and Century Arm's V2 AK-47! That's how we do it in South Carolina! The American Way!!!
This is why i took the door off my house-now i don't have to worry about thieves damaging it.
Two words...2nd Amendment.
Are you sure it wasn't the uber driver?
Someone HAS broken into your home . You know the name.
Blessed be that you are alive to tell the tale. "WHY" because we love you. You are always in my prayers.Keep well,my friend. Now, go to the door with the phone in hand,please.
Huggs, silky
Adam, I am so sorry this has happened to you along with the other things you've been dealing with and I'm so thankful you weren't hurt or worse. I hope you're not having added difficulty with should-I-have-done-this or should-I-have-done-that. Though the almost intruder didn't get in this has still been a horrible experience and it's going to take a while to process this until it's part of the past. I think the added security is an excellent, sensible idea. When things have settled down more you'll be able to develop a still more detailed plan that is right for you should you need it.
Sounds like one of the wet bandits tried to break in! Stay safe, Adam!
Remington 870 Express Super Mag receiver. Protect large Marge at all costs and if trouble occurs, warn ' Em just where Large Marge is about to send 'em. Stay safe and happy. Cheers Teddy Brosephelt
You handled that situation perfect. Glad your ok.
I'm glad you're ok, but I couldn't help but laugh when you were telling it. The dude said, "Why?!"🤣
I'm torn on this one. My first reaction is thank God you were home so he couldn't take your stuff...then I think: you could be dead right now. Sadly,in many of these cases it's someone you know who rips you off. I had that happen to me once,I came home and the back door was open and the TV's and VCRs were gone. I found out it was some punk who had partied at my house a couple times,a friend of a friend. I drove over to his house,banged on the door,his roommate opened the door and without saying a word I marched into his bedroom and there was my stuff. Sadly he wasn't home but I got my crap. I always dreamed of seeing his face when he came home and found out I not only knew he did it but got my stuff back
Jeez this has been The Year Of Suck for you big guy! I hope things return to normal soon
We have a door mat that says, “If you do not live here - Brandy’s home - too protective, we have no friends”
Im just really glad your ok adam and smile tomorrow is a new day
I like how you call him "The gentleman" who broke into your house haha I'm glad you're okay Adam.
I'm glad you weren't harmed Adam. It's understandable to be concerned about them breaking in again.
We go out and leave a radio going, like a talk show type channel...then it sounds like humans are in the
house conversing. Also we leave a light on. You could have been away and then just returning with him
in the house. You are so lucky. Also, at every window we keep a metal thingy...I don't know it's name, but
it screws on to the frame of the window and keeps the window from being opened. (I guess though if they
break it open that would not be a deterrant for the intruder). I like your camera idea....also those lights outfront
that are triggered by motion. If that is a rental place, could you talk to the manager and see if they could secure
the place better...perhaps it won't be up to you to place all these security measures and you won't be out more $'s.
Well, it must seem like a really terrible 2016. It could be that your just getting all your crappy stuff out of the way
for the year, and soon you'll be having a good rest of the year. My 2015 felt really bad, from the very 1rst day onward.
So, I understand feeling like a "black cloud" is hanging over you. I sure hope things look up from here on out.
Take Care. Let us all know what you ended up doing to secure your place. : )
Glad you are OK! Scary as hell. Had my car broken into and twice had weird people up close to our window looking in at night. Possibly to break in. I really want a dog!! Cameras work well. I have a bat always ready. Hoping February goes better for you!
Sorry that happened. I'm happy you're ok!
Sorry that happened to you Adam. I hope as the year progresses that things change for the better for you.
Inside dogs, are better than any alarm system. Dogs go barking when the wind blows, either intruder takes off, or prepare to meet their maker. ;)
Sorry to hear that Adam. Use the deadbolt and sticks in the tracks of the windows and sliding glass door. Also, find a way to get your hands on one of the signs that alarm companies put out in front yards. Those work really well as a deterrence. Also motion sensor lights. I would say get a gun but in CA thieves tend to have more rights than homeowners.
+Jeff Mixson Thieves also tend to shoot first.
A Louisville Slugger or better yet an axe pick handle by your bed is good. Not dangerous in and of themselves either of these will deter or stop someone who is entering your home, though.
The camera mounted outside is a great idea.
Hope February is a better month for you, Adam. I'm sure it will be.
Thank God for dead bolts...glad you were safe.
Hey Adam,you should beef up that plate on the door frame.If the srewes are stripped out just get longer screws so you can get a hold of something solid. 4 inch or even 6 inch screws.... That door didn't seem "shoulder proof"..Also I have always had a dog and Belle is not only a good friend, i know she would go to bat for me any time.......Its nice to know...happy trails ..
A friend of mine had a severe drinking problem, he lives in a fairly affluent neighborhood in fact a NY Jets football player lives in his neighborhood, early one morning he 2as steaming drunk, let his dog out walked out of his house went next door and was banging on the door at 2am, the police show up and he said that he couldn't get into his house, the neighbor told the cops that he lived next door, the police walked him home by then his dog was there waiting, they got him into the house and left, so when you yelled that you were going to call the police and he asked why he may have been high or something and thought it was his house.
Sorry this happened to you ADAM. I wonder if the homeowners would be willing to split the cost with you? Would seem that they wouldn't want someone to break in either. Glad I bought a shirt yesterday to support the cause. Here's to a fantastic February!!
I'm thankful you weren't hurt, as well.
Been through it, when I lived in Marin County, CA.
Someone slit our screens and got in the house ... cops thought they were kids looking through medicine cabinets.
The worse thing was, we believe that my mom driving in the driveway was what scared them away. I was at work ... I thank GOD they didn't hurt our dog who was outside in her yard OR my mom.
Ya never quite get over that feeling of violation.
These days I have a husband that one would not want to mess with.
But we live in a small Maine town and things are really pretty safe here.
Love & blessings to you. Stay safe, we are living in rough times.
You said it right, It's just stuff" and most of us have more stuff than we need. You can't stop somebody from messing with your stuff if thats what they have decided they are going to do with out getting yourself in trouble. Hide the stuff that's important to you and do not worry about the rest of it.
Early August 2011, three teens set fire to my then vehicle as it sat parked in the driveway next to my homestead at 5am.I awoke to that scene happening, it was terrifying!! It was such an invasion to my whole life, it took a few months to get over that. Thank goodness you were not hurt and neither were we that morning. My vehicle was a complete loss tho. The culprits in my case were caught a couple weeks later, they burned 4of my neighbors cars before being caught. I now have a awesome dog who sounds like a 120 pound rottweiler on the other side of the door when she's actually a 50pound lab mix. If you can fit a dog into your life they make great protection and companion as well. Be safe
Car alarm! Always hit that car alarm button! Most of them wont stick around with an alarm going off, and as long as you've got the keys on you, keep it blasting till you feel safe. Usually anyone in the area's gonna notice a car alarm that doesn't stop, too and the thieves don't want that much attention.
I hope such never happens again :( Be safe!
