The mighty elbow
I have been a rickshaw rider for years. I remember that guy since the very beginning. I guess he must be a crackhead. Through all those years I've been seeing him practicing the same thing. He must have reached a perfection long time ago. He blocks those payphones inside the red phone booths around Soho, so people can't get their change back. Every now and then he checks his "snares" out. He walks around fidgetingly and always seems to be in a hurry. One by one he gets into phone booths and, cursing loudly, inexhaustibly bashes them up with his elbow until the trapped coins fall out. What a punch he must have after all those years...
