40 comments

1. Like the Diamond Casino Heist in GTA Online? That’s crazzzzy

2. So Die Hard irl

3. Here, fiction and reality has merged.

4. Does Terry Benedict own this vault? I think I might know who’s responsible. 

5. Kelly’s Heroes?

6. So next one will be a tunnel? Are we in a Hollywood movie?

7. My country is turning into a third world banana republic.

8. Exciting! Don’t see that pulled off every day lol

9. Jason Statham Stars in The Bank Job 2 only in theatres June 2026

10. Geeze, the bold French Crown Jewels heist, now this. I just need one more tomorrow to finish my 2025 bingo card.

11. Very similar to the Hatton Harden heist in London about ten years ago.

    Sucks that it’s safety deposit boxes, a lot of that stuff won’t be insured.

12. I don’t know why I root for the bad guy in these crimes.

13. The Italian job, I mean the German job….

14. That picture doesn’t look very ‘vault’ like. More like a storage room.

15. All these movie references but no Michael Mann’s “Thief”

16. You can see the mounting holes for the core drill they used. Its like 5 to 10kusd. Is this what they mean when they say you need to spend money to make money?

18. So this isn’t the government -insured money that just gets replaced, it’s a bunch of individuals’ heirlooms and stuff. These guys are dicks.

19. >Thieves used the quiet Christmas period to drill their way into the vault of a German retail bank 

    I guess Kevin was busy

20. They broke into several thousand safe deposit boxes?

21. It’s heard they got off with quite a haul.

22. Is Nicky Santoro back from the dead?

23. I don’t understand how they have been able to open 90% of the safes without an alarm!

24. All we’re missing is an Italian job. We need a boat, a safe, and some mini coopers.

25. You son of a bitch; I’m in.

26. 2025, the year reality outshone movie storylines

27. The German thermal drill must not break as often as the American one

28. Can’t wait for Money Heist Part 6.

29. Anyone remember Bank Job with Jason Statham?

30. Oldschool

31. ”Guys, The Thermal Drill. Go Get It”

32. Someone is in trubs with a faulty vibration sensor.

33. There’s still banks without a seismic sensor ?

34. First it was the Louvre heist, and now we have a robbery using a drill to pierce a bank wall… it seems that Payday 3 turned out so badly that its fans said, “I can do better,” and they’re doing it.

35. jeremy irons did it

36. The Bank Job irl

37. “Dozens of angry customers gathered in front of the bank on Tuesday loudly chanting “Let us in!”.

    I don’t understand their logic. So if they let you all in what you’re going to do?

    – Can someone explain why the image is blurred out? It just looks like the bank bags people put money/jewelry in and paper.
    – So banks are closed from December 24 to the 29th? You would think they had an ATM and someone would hear the noise/drilling.

38. This was like the caper in The Asphalt Jungle.

39. Thank god, y’no? Like. Fuck, man. I miss when the wacky antics of the early Batman villains were believable. Back before ‘criminal makes millions’ started being about tech bros and the world falling apart. Give me back silly goober criminals, give me ‘parked the getaway van over a sewer grate’ baddies. Unpopular opinion, maybe, but like… c’mon. I miss the bad headlines being silly at worst, not existential dread inducing.

40. Payday in RL? count me in
