Rex Chapman retired from the NBA in 2000 with 592 career steals. If you add up the thefts in these surveillance videos, he’s an all-time leader in steals. Hell, I’ll say it, a Hall of Famer!

Last week, the former NBA baller was picked up in Arizona after months of stealing from an Apple store in Arizona. Chapman allegedly made off with $14,000 in Apple products in just a few visits.

Five finger discounts at an Apple store seem like a risky proposition. First, the stores are always packed with people and blue-shirted employees swarming around every potential purchase. It feels like a shoplifter would get spotted in seconds. Nope, old Rexy proves it’s actually quite easy. Almost as easy as bending a new iPhone 6.

Check out Rex in action in this surveillance video from the Apple store.
