Would you have the balls???

sells

Armed robbers made off with £40million worth of jewellery in London!!. They didnt even have masks on:eek:, just makeup to make them look different. They just walked into the jewellery store with swanky suits on like cool mother f*uckers, and just left with 40 million pounds...like something out of oceans eleven or some other con movie

Question is do you think you would have the balls to do that, or something like that, let alone without masks? It would take some big "cahones" indeed.

galwayrush

No, but i bags the movie rights.;)

Gran Hermano

Or even big cojones...

brummytom

Nope, you've got to have balls of steel to do something like that.

They did have custom made latex mask's on to disguise themselves,didnt they

phantom_lord

that's great and all, but they're gonna have a ridic tough time trying to pass the stuff on for anything significant.

They had done to their faces what you see on Anonymous with Jason Byrne on RTE. The guy that did it for them (that didn't know what it was for) is now under armed protection!

They didn't look like they should do, but you'd be fairly bricking it mask or no mask that something could go wrong, it's not like the guards in this country wouldn't shoot you when caught in the act if needs be so the UK will be the exact same.

Well the coppers aren't armed, the SO19 (Armed unit) wouldn't be there straight away, and are always amazingly hesitant to shoot (unless you're jumping over a barrier in a Tube station....)

I wouldn't do it, I don't want to catch the menopause! :pac:

They just walked in and took £40 millions worth..? I dont think there was balls or brains behind this one. Puts me in mind of Dougals plan of getting away with kicking Bishop Brennan up the arse. Just kick him up the arse and act like nothing happened :pac:

Crilly, why did you jump through the window?

Mr. Incognito

No probably not, although if I was going to do it Ireland would be the place, you'd get a laughable sentence if you even managed to get yourself caught.

leitrim lad

been there done that, and got the t-shirt, never got caught tho, and im considering doing something similar again,

so keep an eye out in the papers for a 5foot 11, about 15 stone with black going grey hair , wearing a leitrim jersey , in his mid 20s , calmly walking down your street with an atm machine ,or a big safe on his shoulder,

and if you recognise me then put on the kettle

WTF??? Don't you have JCB's in Leitrim?

Good article in the Guardian newspaper today on the heist. Said that the actual market value is £10m as jewellers have a mark up of 4 (four) times on all jewellery.

All the money that is spent on jewellery it is the jewellers that are doing the robbing.

yip i have 26 of my own , but my name is plastered all over them ,i might borrow a neighbours one instead,but it has to be well planned

imagine how unobvious it would be to knock motherhubbards again

a very well taught out plan indeed if i do say so myself

Robbing 40 million of jewellery or being a train robber is cool.

Them slatternly mother types chiselling the social though: sterilize them the lot of them, I say.

They were wearing rubber masks.
