Swedish Criminals Commit Totally Kick-Ass Heist

Mission: PossibleHoly crap, Sweden! "With cinematic flourish, the masked robbers dropped from a helicopter onto the roof of a Swedish cash depot before dawn, broke into the building through a glass pyramid, set off explosions to get to the millions inside and escaped by hoisting themselves and their haul back up on rope lines. All in 20 minutes, and all while Stockholm police were grounded by a fake bomb planted outside their own helicopter hangar." They even stole the helicopter they used to commit the crime. That is some badass shit right there.

I loved one of the news guys I heard last night talking about this: "Bascially, I'd give them my money for pulling this off. They deserve whatever they stole because this heist was seriously amazing".

My viking forebears are grinning from ear to ear in Valhalla right now.

Your Viking forebears are grinning in Valhalla because a team of ex-Yugoslav war veterans made complete fools of the Swedish cops?

(The bad guys left not even a fake bomb but a bag marked "BOMB" beside the police helicopters and knew the wouldn't be chased.)

The only thing that would make this any better is if all of the theives looked like Eric from True Blood.

If they're ex-Yugoslav war veterans, I kinda doubt it.

Needs more pole-vaulting.

First mistake: Don't name a building, "cash depot."

Second mistake: Glass Pyramid on roof.

I was going to write "Second: "Don't crown it with a glass pyramid" until I realized that it's THE glass ceiling all the ladies will need to shatter in order to get equal pay in this world. Gotta go!

This beats the Norwegians, who will just walk out the back door with an unguarded Edvard Munch or two.
