Steve Wozniak recalls a bizarre robbery on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

In a True Confessions skit, Fallon and Seth Rogen try to guess if a story Woz has told them is real. Woz said that it was 1972 and the two Apple co-founders had just finished a pepperoni pizza in Sunnyvale, California when they were approached by a man with a gun while in their vehicle.

The man made the gun visible through the window of the car and stole one of the devices Woz had built to make free calls. Woz and Jobs had shown the man the device in the pizza parlor.

Strangely, the man came back to the car to give the two his name and number.

"Then he came back to the car window and gave us his name and phone number because I think he was half honest and he said he wanted to pay for it and he didn't have the money right then." He also wanted to know how to use it.

Watch Woz recount the story in the video below...
