Wasn't this made into a movie? For some reason I'm thinking that Jason Statham was in it.

No, but the film rights for the article just sold for big bucks.

i bet, it sounds like a great movie. I can see the casting of it now. Ian McShane could star as the lead guy. Phillip Seymour hoffman as his nervous cousin, Michael clark Duncan as the monster, Bruce Willis as the Genius in a bit of odd casting, and Dustin Hoffman as the King of Keys.

Vinny Cerrato does a mickey rourke style comeback as sarge antonelli

Ah, I was thinking about The Bank Job:

I do recall hearing about this. Maybe it was on Dateline NBC or something. It was definitely a very interesting story.

what idiots! They pull off this incredible heist yet they leave evidence laying around in the woods? With your name and everything? ugh!

You know they have to have some smarts to pull off a heist like that but to screw up in the end? I would have went back and burned all that evidence.
