One more: This guy didn't even try to act. Just ran straight for the car.

Part 1:

Part 2:
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...type=2&theater

Dialog of part 2 according to description:
Driver: Get up! I've got dash cam on my car!
Driver: (repeat) Get up! I've got dash cam on my car!
(after the "actor" gets up, looking innocent)
Driver: You don't know I'm XXX (probably member of some gangster party)?
Actor: Uh.... I'll pay for your damages.........

In China, if you mess with the wrong driver, you could get beat up so bad or even gets killed. I remember there was a news that a homeless guy tried to stage an accident like this, turned out the driver was a member of a gang, so he called his guys and one of them stab the homeless guy to death.

The opposite also happens in China :/ This girl got hit by a car and was hurt, and the guy got out and stabbed her to death because he didn't want any witnesses.

That was funny and just plain stupid. Looks like he chose the wrong car to mess with, good thing the driver had a dash cam to prove it!

would be a lot funnier if the driver was fast enough to put the car into reverse and backup a few feet.

Probably nothing... this also happens here (North America). Only most people don't have dash cams. Similar people do the whole "wet floor" slip routine. Where they or a partner go into a store spill or squirt water on the floor and then slip or fall and try and sue the store. If they are no cameras around the store's insurance usually pays out rather than going to trial.
