$70M Gone in Brazil's Boldest Bank Job

UFC Fighter Steals £53M From the Bank of England

Shortly after 1 AM on February 22, 2006, an employee at the Bank of England's cash depot in Kent sees his boss on the exterior cameras asking to be let in. Strange, because he clocked out at 5:30 the evening before and wasn't expected until the morning. But, there's a police officer with him so it must be important. He buzzes them in and the second the door opens, the policeman draws his weapon. Over the next hour, seven armed men capture all fourteen employees and make them watch as they drain the vault. When they're finished, they drive off with 53 million pounds. It's the largest bank heist in the UK's history.

Oh Snap! Someone's Stealing Snapping Turtles?!

It's a spring morning in a Texas swamp where an elusive alligator snapping turtle hunts for his meal. He spots some meat floating right in front of his face and chomps down. Instead of a delicious meal he feels the sharp sting of a hook; and now there are hands on his shell. He wriggles and thrashes against his attackers as they hoist him into a johnboat and manhandle him into a mesh bag. He's taken to shore and tossed into the bed of a truck with another turtle. Hours later, he's dumped into a pond and comes face to face with more of his kind. They're fenced in and far from home. All he can do is wait for dinner, and he's on the menu.

"Scream"-worthy Heist: $120M of Munch Paintings STOLEN

It's a beautiful Sunday morning in Oslo as visitors enter the Munch Museum, home to the acclaimed artist's paintings. But shortly after 11 AM two armed men crash through the doors and order everyone to the ground. They run around the gallery until they reach their destination: The Scream. After one, two, three tugs, they rip the iconic painting from the wall. On their way out, they rip down a second painting, Madonna, then run to a car idling outside. The police arrive less than a minute later but it doesn't matter, the thieves just made away with Edvard Munch's most iconic paintings, valued at $120 million.

When A Navy Captain Stole a Nazi Sub

It's a beautiful morning off the coast of West Africa on June 4, 1944. There isn't a cloud in the sky nor harsh ocean waves. The crew of the USS Guandalcanal, led by Captain David Gallery, sails north to refuel after their failure of a Nazi submarine hunt. But ten minutes later, there's a ping on the sonar. It's a sub just 800 meters away and 60 feet below the surface. Captain Gallery knows this is his moment to make history, to do something the United States hasn't accomplished since the 19th century: steal an enemy ship.

$70M Gone in Brazil's Boldest Bank Job

It's Saturday night in Fortaleza, Brazil, and as usual the popular tourist destination is bustling with night life. That energy extends beneath the surface where a group of men crawl through a tunnel of their own making. Their destination? The vault underneath Brazil's Central Bank. In conveyor belt fashion, they shuffle box after box down the line and into their safe house. At the end of the night, they've managed to steal $70 million worth of Brazilian reais (ray-eyes), nearly double of what they planned. But as they say, more money, more problems, as the gang falls victim to a different kind of heist from an unlikely perpetrator.
