Got dang! I wish I could steal 30 million dollars! It's crazy that they went in through the roof. Back when I worked construction it occurred to me how effective it would be to just sawsall my way through a roof if I ever wanted to burglarize anything. But I wasn't connected enough to know of any buildings with $30M in them.

This heist beat even the notorious Lufthansa heist, shown in the Goodfellas movie, which was the largest heist of all time for a very long time. Adjusted for inflation, that heist was worth $27.6M.
