This is an oldie but well worth revisiting.
During a weekend in August back in 2005 a new Brazilian robbery record was set. The thieves got their hands on 65 million US dollars. The way they did it was like something taken out of a Oceans Eleven remake. They dug an 80 meters long tunnel to reach the vault; got inside through the floor without trigging any alarms and transported the 3,5 tons heavy plunder back through the tunnel.
To camouflage their three months underground activities they opened a gardening store next door to the bank, where they amongst other things, sold the soil they dug out from the tunnel.
A thief gotta make a living.
