  • Ya...sure, the heist did happen, but most likely, according to the detectives involved, not the way you were told. You were so punk'd. By the way, I have a bridge in brooklyn I would like to sell you....

  • Great Book - Flawless. Can't wait to see the movie.

  • @jonmc3 theres a movie?

  • Gee either these guys were Geniuses.. or everyone was in on it and the Jews used the Italians to do an insurance scam.. this is like a different version of the Jews using the Romans to kill Jesus.. oy vay.. those Jews.. those Romans.. what next?

  • wounded

  • are you for fuckin real?! that guy, the mastermind is in my fckin city and hes drivin a Ferrari!

  • if they were the "creme of the crop" how would they make such a dumb ass mistake

  • wow, i didn't really care about the diamonds, but how they deactivated the alarms... it's just interesting

  • women's shampoo

  • Why were there diamonds in the trash? That just doesn't make any sense.

  • That's...incredible.

  • haha, 0:50 : "These thieves were the cream of the crop. They were from Italy..."

    lmao

  • Foolish thing to do even if his friend was having a panic attack. The trash should of stayed with them. Would of been fine as long as you follow the traffic laws

  • thats common sense and that was their plan , panic attacks can be fatal. someone who stops breathing is by far worse a problem than a bag of trash.

  • LMFAO...what a dumn idiot...Note to self, never throw trash out after a very very very successful heist...I just wrote that down...yeah...pen and paper...probably a post it note on the fridge as well...what a dumn idiot.

  • strong pronunciation at 1:58

    the genius, king of keys, monster, speedy

    what the fuck of is? strong use of nicknames.

    I fi were on the team.

    Id be Sixxy von shextenstein dee parabola.

    watch your ass

  • Very well told story, good job guys.

  • So full of artless jealousy is guilt it spills itself in fearing to be spilt.

  • 10 years in jail, around 20 million euro payout.. id do it.

  • How come the retired guy that owned the field did not get busted for receiving stolen goods..... ?

  • he reported it...

    instead of keeping it... and there is a difference in receiving and discovering stolen goods... receiving as in you go and purchase that stolen car ow what not... finding means you find the goods and report it in without touching it i do not believe the land owner touched the stolen trash and diamnonds

  • Really?? Never would have guessed that.. How come he did not fine himself for littering?

  • because HE didn't put it there

  • I was joking....Obviously .....geeeez

  • I pulled off a similar heist with my crew. We got away with 4 million euros (street val.) in Hubba Bubba bubble gum. Only one guy was caught but he ain't no snitch. He's inside right now, but we keep him stocked in gum and he trades it for security. We take care of our own.

  • thats a gangster story

  • if you're interested, you should read the full-length article in Wired, which goes into a bit more depth. Its possible the thieves got off with only 20-25 million, and not 100.

  • it's nice to be that smart, it was a killer team.

  • If you get an employee who thinks he's Charles Bronson, take the butt of your gun and smash their nose in.

  • how much prison time did they get? will they be able to enjoy that 100 million euros worth of diamonds?

  • The organizer got ten years. Two others got five and the "King of Keys" was never found. The money was never recovered either. I'd say they got off pretty good.

  • Nicely told.

  • Wow Awsome Really Awsome

    and u got a mistake in the desription you should say 100 million euros since its more than dollars

  • That's what I was thinking. Creepy when he talks about his letters to the man in prison... 2:40

  • Maybe its because hes a journalist... but then...

  • when is the movie coming?

  • so the lesson of this story is..... don't bring friends into business. =]

  • You do business with the family :D

  • He said nothing about foil. Was there tin foil in the trash?

  • Wow. great job speed.

  • Now I just put one too. Out with the trash and out you go. LOL How stupid is that?

    Sofa King stupid.

    LOL

  • DON'T FUCKING LITTER..., EVER..!!!

  • This is so damn cool. You hardly ever hear about old time heists anymore.

  • And as of the day that Leonardo called Joshua Davis; he has become Leonardos American Prisson Bitch!

  • that was really cool

  • haha, the second got angry at the first and put a minus on his thing

  • Cool. Learn something new everyday.
