181 - The Loomis Fargo Heist

In 1997 cash handling company Loomis Fargo experienced the two largest cash robberies ever committed on American soil. It wasn't a great year!The first was a crime of opportunity, the second was a more planned affair. And yet, it turned out to be the most ridiculous heist in history. Seriously, the stupidity of the crime is unbelievable and also hilarious.Tickets to our four Melbourne Comedy Festival live podcasts:https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/2019/shows/do-go-onSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPodSubmit a topic idea directly to the hat: dogoonpod.com/Submit-a-TopicTwitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: [email protected] tickets to Matt's stand up show (in Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne) with the early bird discount code: dogoonvia mattstewartcomedy.com/gigs Check out our other podcasts:Book Cheat: https://omny.fm/shows/bookcheatPrime Mates: https://omny.fm/shows/prime-matesOur awesome theme song by Evan Munro-Smith and logo by Peader ThomasReferences and further reading:https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/5sw20b/my_name_is_david_scott_ghantt_i_stole_17_million/The FBI Files (Discovery Channel) The Un-Perfect Crime, 2001:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNvN5v_i_tAhttps://www.gastongazette.com/news/20170930/looking-back-at-loomis-heisthttps://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1999/02/18/the-thieves-who-couldnt-cope-with-17-million/f2086821-442a-4c74-ac7a-5625de1c4740/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.c841560ad81ahttps://allthatsinteresting.com/loomis-fargo-heist-david-ghantthttps://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2016/09/27/masterminds-movie-true-but-stupid-story/91154710/ Hosted on Acast.
