Massachusetts man Dave Powers didn’t hesitate to try and drop an armed robber in Somerville Wednesday.

According to WHDH, Powers checked a man who had just robbed a bank when he heard police calling out. He didn’t stop his getaway, but he did cause the man to drop a bag containing money and a gun.

Watch the awesome video below. It's outstanding.

The bad guy may have gotten away, but I still have to give major props to Powers on this one. He sensed the trouble and acted immediately.

That’s some movie caliber stuff right there. Dude didn’t even think about hesitating. He just launched himself at the robber.

Jason Bourne would be proud as hell. Again, it’s not really too big of a deal the guy got away. He disarmed him and got the money.

That’s pretty badass.

It’s also a very tough look for the bank robber. Powers, no offense, doesn’t exactly look like a UFC fighter. He just looks like your average guy.

You can’t let an average looking guy like that take you down. You just can’t! It crushes your street credibility when a web developer disarms you.

That’s just a fact, my friends.

Either way, somebody needs to buy Powers a beer ASAP. He’s done more than enough to deserve it. Good for him for doing the right thing and helping out the cops!
