The Most Notorious Heists Explained in 15 Minutes

Video Description

From Boston’s 1950 Brinks depot job to the 2019 Dresden Green Vault raid, this video breaks down the most notorious heists and the slip-ups that followed. See how the Brinks crew calmly tied up workers and vanished with $2.7 million, how the 1963 Great Train Robbery was traced through fingerprints left behind at a farmhouse, and how the 1978 Lufthansa heist at JFK turned into a nightmare as Jimmy Burke ordered murders tied to the score. Then it’s art and jewels: the Gardner Museum thieves who still haven’t been identified, the Antwerp Diamond Center vault breach, the armed daylight theft of Munch’s The Scream, and hostage-driven raids like Northern Bank and Securitas. The run ends with Paris’s Harry Winston robbery, the Cannes Carlton diamond grab, and Germany’s historic treasures targeted in Dresden. #Brinks #TrainRobbery #Lufthansa #GreenVault Enjoyed it?
