A true 5 star raid indeed.It will be interesting to see who the inside man is.They must have had one.And considering the value of the safety deposit boxes, the security must have been pretty basic.In the 90's I was one of the combination holders for a vault that regularly held over £100 million in cash.The powers that be decided that an "anti duress"lock should be fitted to the vault door which would keep the door locked for 15 minutes after the combination locks had been taken off.It took a heavy duty limpit drill 6 days, operating 24 hours a day, to drill through the vault door, and that was over 20 years ago.You would have thought these days the security would be much better, not worse.But you are correct, it will make a cracking film
