We're INSIDE a Gold Bullion Vault.

The Bank of England protects about £197 billion ($315bn) worth of gold, according to the mostly recently published figures.

Film by Brady Haran. Featuring Professor Martyn Poliakoff.

The vaults are off limits, but the Bank of England Museum will let you lift a real gold bar: http://bit.ly/TJ4BVk

    I know he is hiding one of the gold bars in his hair. The hairstyle and these videos was just a plot to manage to steal one gold bar! BUSTED!

    Easier to pick it up when it is upside down, you can get a better grip, if its not upside down you have to scoot it to a ledge to get a grip on it.

    Are you sure you only weigh 6 gold bars? That hair has got to weigh at least a couple bars.

    Think about it. Do you think they would let anyone walk into the Bank of England's gold vault?
