Wow... getting away with $70 million, thats impressive. All i have to say is congratulations to those guys, cause they're some smart motherfuckers. Thats a nice chunk of change to retire on!

What was the biggest bank heist in history? if thats not it

Re: Congratulations

this article says it was $89 million
http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/89m...353286879.html

the little research i did on the web, this seems like the biggest bank heist in history. i'm sure WAY back in the day, before electricity and junk, there was some heist where the robbers stole like 10 grand, which was a lot back then (im talking like when the pilgrims came over and shit) i really have no clue though

Thats prolly $89 million australian dollars since its a AU site. In my article its US dollars

I dont think its the biggest heist in history, cause all the articles say its the biggest bank heist ever in Brazil, they dont say in the world. So i'm thinking there must of bin a bigger one

But $70 million got damn!! Thats like movie shit. And they got away eaaasy, they didnt even discover the vault was broken into until the monday morning

Re: Congratulations

yeah must be Australian dollars.

what i find totally outrageous, is the fact they were able to do it by digging a 200 meter tunnel directly under the vault. none of this high tech, send a virus to the bank, type shit you see in hollywood.
