People don't realise how natural a reaction this is also, if your pants are coming off it's muscle memory to grab them.

These cases are all pretty damn ridiculous, but do always seem to involve the victim doing something with the hands.

Goes without saying this shouldn't be happening, but makes me think as a member of the public, step one is just, keep your hands where they can see them. (Which isn't big news)
