This is the moment a furious customer destroys a bank in a two-minute outpouring of anger after his debit card is swallowed up by a cash machine.

Most people grin and bear it and return the next day if the bank is closed to try to recover their plastic.

But this outraged Argentinian saw things differently and after spending a few moments poking his fingers into the ATM, vented his frustrations on a glass door leading into the bank reception.

The man is first seen on CCTV attempting to use the bank's ATM machine, only for it to swallow his card

Enraged, he then turns to a huge glass window nearby, and begins pushing it off its hinges

After making his way past the window pane he wanders into the bank's offices

He starts smashing everything he can see, throwing phones, computers and other items on the ground

He forced it open before smashing computer monitors, throwing telephones to the floor and ripping out cables.

After going back to the machine to check his card had not popped back out, he turned his attentions to the entrance door which he tried to lift off its hinges before letting it go and smashing the glass.

The footage - reminiscent of Michael Douglas's famous outbursts of anger in the 1993 psychological thriller film Falling Down - was filmed on the bank's CCTV.

The incident took place at a branch of the Itau Bank in the upmarket Buenos Aires neighbourhood of Belgrano which was closed at the time of the late evening attack.

The video showed a woman queuing up for her turn to take money out before turning away when she saw the monster she had in front of her.

Police confirmed last night they had arrested a man they are thought to have identified from the card he was forced to leave behind when he stopped vandalising the bank.

He was held for ten hours before being released on bail while a judicial probe continues.

Local authorities said the unnamed Mr Angry, thought to be around 40, faced a criminal damage charge and up to a year in prison if convicted.

A source at the local prosecutors' office said: 'The suspect says that when he saw his card had been retained he had an anxiety attack and began to smash the glass doors surrounding the cash machine.

'The footage clearly shows him entering the bank and venting his fury on everything that crossed his path.'

Falling Down stars Michael Douglas in the lead role of William Foster, a divorce and unemployed former defence engineer.

The film centres on Foster as he goes on a violent rampage across Los Angeles while trying to reach the house of his estranged ex-wife in time for his daughter's birthday party.

To exit the building, he turns to another large glass window pane, which he begins pulling off its hinges

With one final push, he slams the window pane against its frame and shattering the glass in its entirety
