I suppose it doesn't help that this story makes me want to rob banks for a living. It's just has a luring aspect to it. Screw the money, I want to see if I can get past the toughest security. It's like a game, a fun, devious game with a nice bonus at the end. Albeit a ridiculous ideal, it's nice to wonder a bit. This is a great story.

Man, it seems that King of Keys fellow was the only smart one of the bunch. And if I was stuck in prison for ten years, I'd be able to work out a believable story akin to what Notarbartolo said.
(Take the time to read the full story. It's more than worth it. And I think it would make a great movie.)

There was this dude, once, who stole some shit, then at his trial, hopped out the second story building window of the courtroom into a car with a mattress on it, and drove off, and was never heard from again. I saw him on A&E.

Ain't got nothin' on Pablo Escobar. But hey, running a strictly regulated business with high barriers to entry and extreme personal risk, Escobar's compensation seems appropriate.capt_weasle wrote:http://www.wired.com/politics/law/magaz ... ntPage=all

I find it interesting that such a well-designed safe fell so easily. It seems to be primarily a human failure - the camera above the safe should have been noticed, as these things should have been inspected for. Also, the decision not to light the safe at night was a very poor one.
