In his confusion, he left a trail of clues after an armed hold-up from a cash van outside a Morrisons, the Old Bailey heard.
CCTV caught him pulling the light blue undies over his face as a disguise.
He threatened a G4S guard with a loaded antique revolver and snatched a box containing £22,405 in Palmers Green, North London.
But prosecutor Geoff Gelbart said: “He can be seen smashing into the corner of a parked van and recoiling off it when the briefs impeded his vision during his escape.”
