 I spoke to a lot of people in prison and I realized very quickly that a lot of people were getting shot on eyeballs So if you were being ready, I'd done a bit of work and so the minute you turned up you're gonna get shot If you take a gun to work you're gonna get shot and You're also gonna get 25 years so It was about thinking of a new way to earn money and I can always remember sitting in prison watching the oceans 11 Stull heists and I thought what that'd be great if I got out and I got a little team together Got some police uniforms a dog, you know, and actually just go into places with warrants and actually do it right so I came out I Got involved in a in a few things to raise some capitol and then I got some van some cars and my D some uniforms And then we went to work, you know, I got you know one of my friends He's six before one of my mother powers ex-army Another my you know, I'm out of a couple of pals. They're they're like bulldogs. They're like, you know, they're they're our core guys And I can trust I've known them all my life So we went and started just you know, we put our toes in and Nick, you know, cut on the ground They are kind of the ground now fucking this is good. Then we started doing doing wear asses bonded and that and in We we came across the Verizon communication center in King's Cross We were told We were told by a lot of firms It was a high risk job and it was pretty one that shouldn't be shouldn't be approached simply because there was a police station The ivory islet and now there was Kenny's town police station at the other end and There was our Albany Street on the other side and behind it. There was there was a canal So there's no way out. It's only one way in one way out and it was a rack round for the old bill as well You know, they were coming past every five minutes So it was deemed, you know, I know, you know, it was one job you can't do So that Intation even more that tease you even more that someone says a job couldn't be done. So you've kind of got that fuck it I'll show them. You know what I think because I was so angry because I you know, I'd I still a lot of resentment for the old bill You know one for Nick and me. I don't know why it just is I actually went out of my way to actually Because I nicked I nicked the idea I nicked everything off the old bill and advanced anything We went, you know, we've got everything. I also done an ID with Darren Brown. That was my thing He had an illusionist. Yeah, so I got all the idea he'd done and then going down there and and and reading because I read the sites You know, it's one in places. It was like full knocks 24-hour security eight security guards Biometric alarm systems keypads everything. Yeah, everything is it was in, you know, air Fresh your doors the works and before I can we do this and we we we come up with just a Different way that most people were doing things at that time We went and got ourselves an old station We bought a couple of vans cut a couple of cars. We kicked them out and We got the uniforms and we went down here You know, we had a look at it for a few days and over that period And we realized that the only flaw in the whole system was the fact that they were open still open that door when people Knocked on it and that was the weak thing So we went down there pulled up one as we believe it or not when we pulled down in the first time There was a cop car came behind us a real old bill We was all dressed as old bill and next thing we looked in looked in a wing mirror And there's a real old bill behind us and all of a sudden the lights went on and I'm always remember that feeling I looked at my power and I felt my stomach over and then I was a fuck we got to do this Come I was not gonna be able to get out of here and all of a sudden he's gone around us And he's gone down the road So we went past the place and we had to drive all the way around again in that moment at five minutes It was Because we had radios. We said a bolt a bolt a bolt, you know, that's all I heard Let's get the fuck out of here and I said no, no, let's just carry on there now We're gonna we're gonna we're gonna do this So, you know me and my powers ex-army he was driving pulled up into the curb pulled up You know, it's about 40 foot from the curb to the front door So we pulled on to the pavement right up to the front door car pulled by the side of us and the dogs came out and We knocked on the door And I just said like We believe we've had information we see that there's someone up on the roof and We're gonna come in and search the place and they open the door and then we walked in now We took the biggest the two biggest guys around the corner and then I said look we we have Information that the guy that came through his dresses that one of you lot is a security guard So for my protection and my office is protection. I'm gonna cuff you until I find out who you are So after a little bit, you know, I'm the head of security bollocks They went all right no problem. So we cuff them up set him on the stairs and then what we did is I when I walked back in we We just took all the rest of them because there was all those loads There was sitting behind the monitors they monitor Neil gaff and we just took him out one by one and cuffed them and done it And we got a few maintenance people and a few cleaners. I think when I look around I think there's about 16 people on the fucking stairway And then we said we're gonna take the dog around and search the buildings But you know just calm down, you know, it's not no one's gonna get hurt You know, he's gonna be sweet And then so we went to work. We had one guy on the on the desk As I said, we actually went into the wrong room. We actually pulled a computer chip Which set which turned off all the another security firm was looking at it and then they phoned up and I said what's going on We said there's been a surge in the system and they'd be up and running another 45 minutes to an hour and That was that they put the phone down and we had an hour. We knew we had an hour But bought you more time. Do you know what? Yeah, you know just by being cool and not not disappearing and asking the phone It kept it kept it kept the job alive and this was estimated of being a five million pound heist What was it motherboards? What is a motherboard motherboard? It's like it's like it's like a mainframe computer So if you look at if you look at a server in a normal office block that one server can pretty do the whole place So if you imagine a server could pretty do a whole country So, you know these ones these ones are there like they were 32 chips in each one They were of hundred and twenty thousand dollars a piece and they got about eight or ten in each server So they can you know if you consider in a phone you can send something to them You can send a spaceship technology technology in this apparently we we shut down three countries Which they weren't happy about, you know, I think it was Morgan Yeah, Morgan's the Morgan foundation or standing wherever is the bank people Yeah, we shut you know we shut down but we spent an hour in there We kept everyone reassured, you know, and then we just went in now drilled it all off. We kept everyone nice and calm brought we often made about 15 bags, you know, then with washing bags and stuff and We just walked them out to the van, you know, and then I called it and said like it's go It's so we took one of the dogs went out Everyone's went out and then I was the last one out of there And I looked at I just you know just shut up shut the door up and then I got in the van and we were gone We talked about 40 minutes to get to where we was we went and dumped all the gear put it all in in the stash Got rid of the cars burn them out burn the vans out And we met up about one o'clock in the morning After we've done everything I've got rid of all our gear put it all in bags so we can burn it and That's the first time we sat down and had a drink and just discussed it, you know, you know There's a certain bit of camaraderie when you do a bit whether it's can and money or whether it's doing a job But it's also a way to unwind you have a laugh and a joke and you say, you know You start talking about the job and then within an hour you've had a drink everyone's happy We know we've got the prize and we know we've got away with it The most important thing we've got away with it about anyone, which is great, you know Yeah for me that was a you know, it was a job I'll never forget because it was my birthday the next day
