Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,251 --> 00:00:03,876
The target is tempting.
2
00:00:04,001 --> 00:00:06,626
A haul that could net
over $30 million.
3
00:00:06,751 --> 00:00:09,501
From the outside, looks
like an ordinary bank.
4
00:00:09,626 --> 00:00:12,626
But on the inside
it's anything but ordinary.
5
00:00:12,751 --> 00:00:15,710
With ties to big labor,
a US president,
6
00:00:15,835 --> 00:00:17,043
and the mafia...
7
00:00:17,043 --> 00:00:21,376
There's Nixon campaign money
in this one remote bank.
8
00:00:21,501 --> 00:00:26,168
This heist isn't just
daring, it's dangerous.
9
00:00:26,168 --> 00:00:28,543
Outside of the vault
they hear footsteps.
10
00:00:28,668 --> 00:00:30,876
Is he Secret Service?
Does he work for the bank?
11
00:00:30,876 --> 00:00:33,293
Is he security?
Everyone is panicking.
12
00:00:34,918 --> 00:00:36,918
What the [bleep]?
13
00:00:36,918 --> 00:00:38,835
Maybe this isn't as easy
14
00:00:38,835 --> 00:00:39,793
as we thought it might be.
15
00:00:44,918 --> 00:00:46,876
The masterminds
behind every great heist
16
00:00:47,001 --> 00:00:50,251
see what most people don't:
17
00:00:50,418 --> 00:00:53,293
risking everything to pull
off the score of a lifetime.
18
00:00:53,418 --> 00:00:56,585
It takes a bold plan...
19
00:00:56,751 --> 00:00:58,626
the right team...
20
00:00:58,751 --> 00:01:01,543
and the skill to stay
one step ahead of the law.
21
00:01:23,210 --> 00:01:24,668
Watch out.
22
00:01:25,501 --> 00:01:27,501
This way.
23
00:01:36,418 --> 00:01:40,043
United California Bank
in Laguna Niguel.
24
00:01:40,168 --> 00:01:42,501
It's isolated, in a town
with a lot of money,
25
00:01:42,626 --> 00:01:44,793
and its vault is filled
with the safe deposit
26
00:01:44,918 --> 00:01:47,835
boxes of wealthy locals.
27
00:01:47,835 --> 00:01:50,793
It's also allegedly
heist-proof.
28
00:02:01,751 --> 00:02:05,251
The United California Bank
was structurally well built.
29
00:02:05,418 --> 00:02:09,376
It had a vault inside
about 12 by 15
30
00:02:09,376 --> 00:02:13,668
with very, very thick walls and
rebar all the way around it.
31
00:02:14,418 --> 00:02:17,835
The vault door is
fireproof and blast proof,
32
00:02:17,835 --> 00:02:20,501
and weighs nearly 1,000 pounds.
33
00:02:20,501 --> 00:02:23,126
Its time-lock
mechanism means that it
34
00:02:23,251 --> 00:02:25,710
can't be opened after hours...
35
00:02:25,710 --> 00:02:29,168
at least not by
law-abiding citizens.
36
00:02:29,168 --> 00:02:32,085
It was significant
and state of the art
37
00:02:32,251 --> 00:02:34,043
for that time period.
38
00:02:34,168 --> 00:02:36,251
But it has a
secret that makes
39
00:02:36,418 --> 00:02:39,710
a crew of professional
thieves travel 2,400
40
00:02:39,835 --> 00:02:41,793
miles from Ohio to rob it.
41
00:02:41,918 --> 00:02:44,210
United California Bank,
from the outside,
42
00:02:44,335 --> 00:02:46,460
looks like an ordinary bank.
43
00:02:46,585 --> 00:02:50,293
But on the inside is
anything but ordinary.
44
00:02:50,418 --> 00:02:54,251
The tipster says that
there is a $30 million stash
45
00:02:54,376 --> 00:02:56,376
rumored to be dirty money
46
00:02:56,501 --> 00:02:58,543
belonging to
President Richard Nixon
47
00:02:58,710 --> 00:03:00,376
inside this bank.
48
00:03:00,543 --> 00:03:04,543
And that's the background
that gets this all going.
49
00:03:07,251 --> 00:03:08,751
It's a few months
before Watergate
50
00:03:08,876 --> 00:03:12,543
and Richard Nixon is already
known as Tricky Dick.
51
00:03:12,668 --> 00:03:14,585
Nixon is running
for reelection
52
00:03:14,710 --> 00:03:16,543
and he's amassing
his war chest.
53
00:03:16,668 --> 00:03:19,418
And the money is coming in
from some interesting sources,
54
00:03:19,543 --> 00:03:21,960
including the Teamsters.
55
00:03:22,085 --> 00:03:24,376
Jimmy Hoffa, who's the
president of the Teamsters,
56
00:03:24,376 --> 00:03:26,876
is serving 4 years
of a 13-year sentence
57
00:03:27,043 --> 00:03:29,251
for bribery and fraud.
58
00:03:29,376 --> 00:03:33,293
Hoffa wants out of prison,
so he allegedly
59
00:03:33,418 --> 00:03:35,918
tries to cut a deal
with President Nixon.
60
00:03:36,085 --> 00:03:41,293
As the story goes, Nixon says
in exchange for a pardon
61
00:03:41,418 --> 00:03:44,793
he wants $3 million
and an endorsement
62
00:03:44,918 --> 00:03:47,376
from the Teamsters Union.
63
00:03:47,501 --> 00:03:50,668
So Hoffa goes along
with this agreement.
64
00:03:50,668 --> 00:03:53,376
But the money
comes with a condition.
65
00:03:53,501 --> 00:03:56,043
The caveat is that Hoffa
66
00:03:56,168 --> 00:03:57,793
cannot serve as the head
of the Teamsters
67
00:03:57,918 --> 00:03:59,626
for nine whole years.
68
00:03:59,751 --> 00:04:03,626
And when he does get
out of prison, he's pissed
69
00:04:03,751 --> 00:04:05,835
and he wants
his $3 million back.
70
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,710
Jimmy Hoffa uses his
mob ties to figure out
71
00:04:09,835 --> 00:04:11,543
that this money, this fund,
is held in a bank
72
00:04:11,668 --> 00:04:13,835
in little old Laguna Niguel.
73
00:04:13,835 --> 00:04:17,460
And so using
his mobster connections,
74
00:04:17,585 --> 00:04:21,293
Hoffa decided to call it the
best burglars in the country.
75
00:04:21,418 --> 00:04:24,251
The question goes out
to mobsters everywhere:
76
00:04:24,418 --> 00:04:26,335
who would you use
on a bank job
77
00:04:26,460 --> 00:04:29,210
if your life depended on it?
78
00:04:29,335 --> 00:04:33,168
There's one answer:
the Dinsio brothers,
79
00:04:33,168 --> 00:04:35,418
out of Youngstown, Ohio.
80
00:04:37,585 --> 00:04:40,043
Cleveland mafia members,
on behalf of Hoffa,
81
00:04:40,043 --> 00:04:43,876
approached Amil Dinsio
82
00:04:44,043 --> 00:04:47,543
and his brother James Dinsio.
83
00:04:48,376 --> 00:04:52,043
The Dinsio brothers,
with this $30 million heist,
84
00:04:52,210 --> 00:04:55,585
and of course
they can't refuse that.
85
00:04:55,751 --> 00:04:58,793
The mastermind
will be Amil Dinsio.
86
00:04:58,918 --> 00:05:03,376
Born in 1936 to Italian
immigrant parents,
87
00:05:03,501 --> 00:05:06,460
his father's restaurant
hosted backroom gambling
88
00:05:06,585 --> 00:05:08,710
run by local mafiosos.
89
00:05:08,835 --> 00:05:12,293
These men mentored young
Amil in the art of the heist,
90
00:05:12,418 --> 00:05:15,418
and he was their star student.
91
00:05:15,543 --> 00:05:18,543
Amil Dinsio is the brains.
He's the mastermind.
92
00:05:18,710 --> 00:05:22,293
He's methodical, his attention
to detail is second to none,
93
00:05:22,418 --> 00:05:25,793
and he's exactly who you
want in a heist like this.
94
00:05:27,501 --> 00:05:31,210
I met with Amil Dinsio
multiple occasions,
95
00:05:31,210 --> 00:05:32,710
and he made it
a point to tell me,
96
00:05:32,710 --> 00:05:34,335
you know,
"We never hurt nobody."
97
00:05:34,460 --> 00:05:38,543
Amil Dinsio is a popular
folk hero,
98
00:05:38,543 --> 00:05:41,543
and crimes like this
were part of the way of life.
99
00:05:41,668 --> 00:05:44,710
So not only is Amil the
best burglar in the world,
100
00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:47,585
he's also the planner
and the recruiter,
101
00:05:47,751 --> 00:05:51,543
and he wants to build the best
team to pull this thing off.
102
00:05:51,668 --> 00:05:53,543
So he starts
building his crew,
103
00:05:53,710 --> 00:05:57,293
and it starts with his
brother James Dinsio.
104
00:05:57,418 --> 00:05:59,251
James Dinsio,
who's Amil's older brother,
105
00:05:59,376 --> 00:06:02,251
is a self-taught
explosives expert.
106
00:06:02,376 --> 00:06:03,918
And he has a gift.
And we know he has a gift,
107
00:06:04,085 --> 00:06:06,251
because he has all 10 fingers.
108
00:06:06,376 --> 00:06:07,585
James and Amil have
been hitting banks
109
00:06:07,710 --> 00:06:09,335
since they were teenagers.
110
00:06:09,335 --> 00:06:10,751
They've worked together,
they trust each other.
111
00:06:10,876 --> 00:06:13,543
Together they form
the core of the crew.
112
00:06:13,710 --> 00:06:15,460
The deal is that
Hoffa is made whole,
113
00:06:15,585 --> 00:06:18,501
he gets his $3 million back,
the mob gets 5%,
114
00:06:18,626 --> 00:06:20,168
and the team splits the rest.
115
00:06:20,293 --> 00:06:21,585
They've done a lot
of heists.
116
00:06:21,751 --> 00:06:23,335
They've done something
like 70-plus heists,
117
00:06:23,460 --> 00:06:26,585
but never anything like
a $30 million heist.
118
00:06:27,293 --> 00:06:29,751
The brothers'
first step is a scout
119
00:06:29,918 --> 00:06:31,626
to learn all the
obstacles standing
120
00:06:31,751 --> 00:06:35,001
between them and $30 million.
121
00:06:35,001 --> 00:06:40,085
That means trading Ohio snow
for some California sunshine.
122
00:06:41,793 --> 00:06:43,543
When you're doing a heist,
123
00:06:43,668 --> 00:06:46,043
you have to case the place,
check out the security,
124
00:06:46,168 --> 00:06:47,710
check out the environment.
125
00:06:47,876 --> 00:06:49,543
They're casing the shopping
center day and night.
126
00:06:49,668 --> 00:06:51,710
How busy is it during
the day, after it closes?
127
00:06:51,876 --> 00:06:53,960
And what they're finding
out is after 10:00 p.m.,
128
00:06:54,085 --> 00:06:55,835
it's pretty much dead.
129
00:06:57,585 --> 00:07:00,210
The lack of
nightlife is expected.
130
00:07:00,335 --> 00:07:02,585
But the lack of
after-hours security
131
00:07:02,710 --> 00:07:05,626
is a welcome surprise.
132
00:07:05,751 --> 00:07:08,043
Laguna Niguel is
essentially Sleepy Hollow.
133
00:07:08,210 --> 00:07:10,710
There was very little in
the way of law enforcement.
134
00:07:10,835 --> 00:07:13,335
The Orange County Sheriff's
Department had jurisdiction
135
00:07:13,335 --> 00:07:16,626
over the entire county,
and at nighttimes
136
00:07:16,751 --> 00:07:20,168
they only had allotted one
car for South County,
137
00:07:20,168 --> 00:07:22,876
which was the entire area
from Tustin, California,
138
00:07:23,001 --> 00:07:26,543
all the way down
to Laguna Niguel.
139
00:07:26,668 --> 00:07:29,460
They realized that the
bank closes Friday evening,
140
00:07:29,585 --> 00:07:31,710
a cleaning crew comes
through, and then
141
00:07:31,710 --> 00:07:33,460
they have the whole
weekend to do whatever
142
00:07:33,585 --> 00:07:35,585
they want in the bank.
143
00:07:37,793 --> 00:07:39,918
So Amil and James
are casing the place.
144
00:07:40,043 --> 00:07:41,543
They are going
through the bushes.
145
00:07:41,710 --> 00:07:43,710
It's like the dead of night.
146
00:07:43,835 --> 00:07:46,710
They're doing it very, very
carefully, very covertly,
147
00:07:46,835 --> 00:07:48,710
hiding behind these bushes.
148
00:07:48,835 --> 00:07:52,043
They're trying to figure out
what makes this bank tick
149
00:07:52,168 --> 00:07:53,793
when a car pulls up.
150
00:07:55,585 --> 00:07:58,043
A car pulls up
into the plaza,
151
00:07:58,168 --> 00:08:00,085
right in front of the bank.
152
00:08:00,210 --> 00:08:03,001
A man gets out.
He's dressed in dark clothing.
153
00:08:03,126 --> 00:08:06,793
Opens up the back door and
a German shepherd gets out,
154
00:08:06,918 --> 00:08:11,001
and the dog starts patrolling
the perimeter of the bank.
155
00:08:11,126 --> 00:08:14,168
The dog, meanwhile, gets
closer and closer to them.
156
00:08:14,168 --> 00:08:16,210
Amil and James are
thinking, who is this guy?
157
00:08:16,376 --> 00:08:19,085
Is he just taking his dog
out for a midnight stroll?
158
00:08:19,210 --> 00:08:21,751
Or is he some kind of security
they didn't know about?
159
00:08:21,918 --> 00:08:25,126
The Dinsios fear the worst.
160
00:08:25,251 --> 00:08:29,460
If this is a canine patrol,
they're dead on arrival.
161
00:08:29,585 --> 00:08:31,918
And then the dog
starts getting closer
162
00:08:32,085 --> 00:08:33,501
and closer to where
they're hiding
163
00:08:33,501 --> 00:08:36,210
and then looks
directly at them.
164
00:08:42,710 --> 00:08:45,168
With millions on the line,
Amil and James Dinsio
165
00:08:45,168 --> 00:08:48,085
are scouting the biggest
heist of their careers.
166
00:08:50,876 --> 00:08:54,376
But an encounter with what
looks like a canine patrol
167
00:08:54,501 --> 00:08:56,543
could stop this job
before it begins.
168
00:09:02,918 --> 00:09:05,543
If they get caught, it's all
the planning down the drain,
169
00:09:05,668 --> 00:09:07,710
millions of dollars
down the drain,
170
00:09:07,710 --> 00:09:09,835
and then having to answer
to the Cleveland mob.
171
00:09:11,543 --> 00:09:13,501
They think,
we've been found out.
172
00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:22,543
But then the dog leaves.
173
00:09:22,668 --> 00:09:24,960
Gets back in the car
and they drive away.
174
00:09:25,085 --> 00:09:26,960
Even after the man
and the dog leave,
175
00:09:27,085 --> 00:09:28,876
there's this
wild-card element that
176
00:09:28,876 --> 00:09:30,376
they have to contend with.
177
00:09:30,501 --> 00:09:32,668
Is he security for the plaza?
178
00:09:32,793 --> 00:09:35,751
Is he FBI?
Is he Secret Service?
179
00:09:35,876 --> 00:09:39,043
And will it get in the way of
them pulling this thing off?
180
00:09:41,418 --> 00:09:43,626
It's an alarming prospect.
181
00:09:43,751 --> 00:09:45,876
And has the team
worried about
182
00:09:46,001 --> 00:09:49,668
what kind of security
system the bank has.
183
00:09:49,793 --> 00:09:51,543
What's standard in
a bank at this time
184
00:09:51,668 --> 00:09:54,001
is an outside alarm, an
alarm that makes a sound,
185
00:09:54,001 --> 00:09:56,876
and an alarm in the vault,
a silent alarm.
186
00:09:57,001 --> 00:09:58,876
Now these guys are pros.
187
00:09:58,876 --> 00:10:00,376
They know there are going
to be two kinds of alarms.
188
00:10:00,501 --> 00:10:01,835
They're creeping around
the perimeter of the bank
189
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,960
to find that
exterior alarm bell.
190
00:10:04,085 --> 00:10:07,168
Amil finds it and he
notices the company name.
191
00:10:07,168 --> 00:10:10,668
Amil looks up and he sees
Diebold Alarm,
192
00:10:10,668 --> 00:10:13,876
and a smile is on his face.
193
00:10:14,001 --> 00:10:15,710
He knows a lot about Diebold.
194
00:10:15,835 --> 00:10:19,376
He's robbed a number of
bank vaults with Diebold,
195
00:10:19,501 --> 00:10:21,210
so this is the
best-case scenario.
196
00:10:21,335 --> 00:10:23,710
So they have the
exterior alarm covered;
197
00:10:23,835 --> 00:10:26,001
it's that silent alarm they
need more information on.
198
00:10:26,001 --> 00:10:28,085
And they know there's going
to be at least a wire that
199
00:10:28,210 --> 00:10:30,376
goes from the vault
to either the police
200
00:10:30,543 --> 00:10:32,043
or the alarm company.
201
00:10:35,168 --> 00:10:37,001
Amil and James
begin to work out
202
00:10:37,001 --> 00:10:39,335
a plan for a two-night heist.
203
00:10:39,335 --> 00:10:42,293
Night one, they'll cut
a hole through the roof
204
00:10:42,418 --> 00:10:45,085
and drop a few feet down
onto the top of the vault.
205
00:10:45,251 --> 00:10:47,251
They'll disable
the loud exterior
206
00:10:47,376 --> 00:10:50,376
alarm and then the
interior silent alarm
207
00:10:50,543 --> 00:10:52,376
that alerts the police.
208
00:10:52,376 --> 00:10:55,835
James will then drill holes
down into the vault's ceilings
209
00:10:55,835 --> 00:10:57,793
and fill them with explosives.
210
00:10:57,918 --> 00:11:00,251
From there, they'll
use sandbags to muffle
211
00:11:00,418 --> 00:11:03,710
the sound and direct the blast
into the vault.
212
00:11:03,710 --> 00:11:06,543
On night two,
they'll use brute force
213
00:11:06,710 --> 00:11:08,543
to bust into
hundreds of safe deposit
214
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:11,001
boxes and get the loot.
215
00:11:11,001 --> 00:11:13,876
It's simple,
but it's a lot of work
216
00:11:14,043 --> 00:11:16,293
and the devil will
be in the details.
217
00:11:18,251 --> 00:11:20,126
Now that they've completed
their very thorough recon
218
00:11:20,251 --> 00:11:21,918
and have the broad
strokes of a plan,
219
00:11:22,043 --> 00:11:23,668
they need to build out
the rest of the team.
220
00:11:23,793 --> 00:11:25,751
And that means
221
00:11:25,876 --> 00:11:28,876
going back to Ohio.
222
00:11:29,043 --> 00:11:31,793
After Amil and James
fly home and report in,
223
00:11:31,918 --> 00:11:35,960
their mafia handlers make
an offer they can't refuse.
224
00:11:36,085 --> 00:11:39,543
They add a mob-connected alarm
specialist to their crew.
225
00:11:41,876 --> 00:11:43,668
My name
is Philip Christopher,
226
00:11:43,668 --> 00:11:46,543
and they call me
the Super Thief.
227
00:11:51,001 --> 00:11:53,585
Born and raised
Cleveland, Ohio.
228
00:11:53,751 --> 00:11:55,376
Still there to this day.
229
00:11:55,501 --> 00:11:57,460
Cleveland was home
to some of the best
230
00:11:57,585 --> 00:11:59,210
burglars in the world.
231
00:11:59,335 --> 00:12:02,001
Phil Christopher is
known as an alarm guy.
232
00:12:02,126 --> 00:12:03,751
They want the best
of the best,
233
00:12:03,876 --> 00:12:05,668
so they're going to
recruit that.
234
00:12:05,793 --> 00:12:07,418
They would come to
us because they knew
235
00:12:07,543 --> 00:12:09,043
damn well we were the best.
236
00:12:09,043 --> 00:12:11,168
Nobody could beat the
alarms like I could.
237
00:12:11,168 --> 00:12:14,168
But I got in there, you
know, by hook or by crook.
238
00:12:14,293 --> 00:12:15,668
I was going to get
in there because
239
00:12:15,668 --> 00:12:17,835
I wasn't going home empty.
240
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,543
The next member
of the Dinsios
241
00:12:19,543 --> 00:12:22,210
add to the team
is Chuck Mulligan.
242
00:12:22,335 --> 00:12:25,918
He'll acquire the specialized
gear to get the job done
243
00:12:26,043 --> 00:12:28,293
without leaving a trail.
244
00:12:28,418 --> 00:12:30,876
They go to Chuck Mulligan,
who is their brother-in-law
245
00:12:30,876 --> 00:12:32,876
so they trust him.
246
00:12:32,876 --> 00:12:34,126
They've worked with him before.
247
00:12:34,251 --> 00:12:37,376
Meanwhile, James Dinsio
begins building some
248
00:12:37,376 --> 00:12:39,876
of the custom tools
they'll need for the job,
249
00:12:40,001 --> 00:12:41,876
including a drill...
250
00:12:42,043 --> 00:12:45,001
one you can't just pick up
in your local hardware store.
251
00:12:45,001 --> 00:12:47,251
This drill
runs on 2,500 RPMs
252
00:12:47,418 --> 00:12:50,043
and has a 3/8-inch
carbon tip drill bit
253
00:12:50,210 --> 00:12:51,585
that can pulverize concrete.
254
00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:54,085
And it is super, super quiet.
255
00:12:54,210 --> 00:12:55,960
This is a critical element,
because not only will they
256
00:12:56,085 --> 00:12:58,376
be able to drill the
hole that they need,
257
00:12:58,376 --> 00:13:01,460
it'll be quiet enough that
no one else will hear it.
258
00:13:01,585 --> 00:13:05,710
Busting into safe deposit
boxes takes serious muscle,
259
00:13:05,710 --> 00:13:10,126
so the Cleveland mob also adds
Charles Broeckel to the team.
260
00:13:10,251 --> 00:13:12,418
He's not just an associate,
he's also
261
00:13:12,543 --> 00:13:13,876
Phil Christopher's cousin.
262
00:13:14,001 --> 00:13:15,335
He's a mobbed-up partner.
263
00:13:15,335 --> 00:13:16,835
He's worked with Phil.
264
00:13:16,835 --> 00:13:20,043
He is someone that Phil trusts.
265
00:13:20,168 --> 00:13:22,085
So he's not going to
let anything happen to me,
266
00:13:22,251 --> 00:13:24,085
you know,
because we were close.
267
00:13:24,210 --> 00:13:25,710
The mob puts two
of their guys on,
268
00:13:25,876 --> 00:13:27,001
so when they're
splitting up the money,
269
00:13:27,126 --> 00:13:28,751
no one forgets how to do math.
270
00:13:31,876 --> 00:13:33,960
With an ace team,
a great plan,
271
00:13:34,085 --> 00:13:36,085
and custom gear
packed and ready,
272
00:13:36,251 --> 00:13:39,043
it's time to fly
back to California.
273
00:13:39,168 --> 00:13:42,043
The Dinsios are determined
that the biggest heist
274
00:13:42,168 --> 00:13:44,710
of their careers be flawless.
275
00:13:44,710 --> 00:13:47,585
So Charlie and I
got to the airport
276
00:13:47,710 --> 00:13:48,876
and they tell Charlie,
Charlie, where's
277
00:13:49,001 --> 00:13:52,543
our driver's license, our
phony ID that we had made up?
278
00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:54,751
And he said, oh, I forgot them.
279
00:13:54,918 --> 00:13:56,710
I said, how the hell
are we going to get
280
00:13:56,835 --> 00:13:58,501
on a plane with no phony ID?
281
00:13:58,626 --> 00:14:02,835
Because I had to be careful
because I was on probation.
282
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,876
Nobody knows how long
the cash will remain
283
00:14:05,876 --> 00:14:08,043
in the bank in California,
284
00:14:08,210 --> 00:14:10,085
so the heist team
has to decide,
285
00:14:10,210 --> 00:14:13,210
do they make their move now...
286
00:14:13,335 --> 00:14:16,043
or lie low for one more week?
287
00:14:16,210 --> 00:14:18,835
When Charlie Broeckel
forgets the fake IDs,
288
00:14:18,835 --> 00:14:20,835
they use their real IDs,
their real names.
289
00:14:20,835 --> 00:14:22,543
They still got on the planes.
290
00:14:22,668 --> 00:14:24,918
I didn't want to do it, but
I knew the other guys were
291
00:14:25,085 --> 00:14:27,210
on a plane waiting for us
and I didn't want to say,
292
00:14:27,335 --> 00:14:28,835
well, we'll catch you
on the next flight.
293
00:14:28,835 --> 00:14:31,668
I didn't want to
make it seem like we
294
00:14:31,668 --> 00:14:34,210
didn't know what was doing.
295
00:14:34,376 --> 00:14:36,210
Once they arrive
in Laguna Niguel,
296
00:14:36,210 --> 00:14:38,085
they're joined by
the last member
297
00:14:38,210 --> 00:14:42,793
of the crew, getaway driver
and radioman Harry Barber.
298
00:14:42,918 --> 00:14:46,168
So Harry Barber is a nephew.
299
00:14:46,293 --> 00:14:48,168
Again, it's mostly
a family affair.
300
00:14:48,293 --> 00:14:49,876
These are people
he's worked with,
301
00:14:50,001 --> 00:14:51,293
these are people he trusts.
302
00:14:53,210 --> 00:14:55,460
Chuck Mulligan picks
up the last items
303
00:14:55,585 --> 00:14:58,835
on his unusual shopping
list, walkie talkies,
304
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,126
nitroglycerine,
and a getaway car.
305
00:15:02,251 --> 00:15:05,085
The team gathers for
final preparations.
306
00:15:05,251 --> 00:15:06,960
Harry Barber rented
a place down there
307
00:15:07,085 --> 00:15:10,376
at the West Nine in
Laguna Niguel, which
308
00:15:10,543 --> 00:15:12,210
is a condominium area
about a couple
309
00:15:12,335 --> 00:15:14,751
of miles east from the bank.
310
00:15:14,918 --> 00:15:16,543
It was like perfect.
311
00:15:16,543 --> 00:15:18,418
The condo's on the edge
of the golf course,
312
00:15:18,585 --> 00:15:22,210
so nobody's going to see us
approach the bank at all.
313
00:15:31,126 --> 00:15:34,293
At 10:00 p.m. on Friday,
the heist team heads out,
314
00:15:34,418 --> 00:15:37,376
carrying their tools
across the golf course...
315
00:15:37,501 --> 00:15:41,210
on the way to a
different kind of green.
316
00:15:41,335 --> 00:15:45,043
Charlie Mulligan takes his
position on top of the hill
317
00:15:45,168 --> 00:15:47,543
as we walk down the embankment.
318
00:15:47,668 --> 00:15:50,876
For the duration of this
mission, he's the lookout.
319
00:15:50,876 --> 00:15:53,001
Harry Barber stays
back at the condo,
320
00:15:53,126 --> 00:15:55,085
listening to the
police scanner,
321
00:15:55,251 --> 00:15:57,168
and he's on standby with the
getaway car in case anything
322
00:15:57,168 --> 00:15:58,918
goes wrong.
323
00:16:00,710 --> 00:16:05,376
Friday, March 24,
1972, at 11:00 p.m.,
324
00:16:05,501 --> 00:16:09,335
the Dinsio crew is ready
to put their plan, their gear,
325
00:16:09,335 --> 00:16:11,793
and their nerves to the test.
326
00:16:11,918 --> 00:16:14,085
The heist starts now.
327
00:16:19,668 --> 00:16:21,876
Amil, James, and Phil
make their way up the ladder
328
00:16:22,001 --> 00:16:23,960
to the roof,
leaving Broeckel down
329
00:16:24,085 --> 00:16:26,668
below as a secondary lookout.
330
00:16:26,668 --> 00:16:28,418
Their first order of business?
331
00:16:28,543 --> 00:16:31,543
To cut a hole in the roof
to get to the vault below.
332
00:16:31,668 --> 00:16:35,126
We were drilling our
holes where we estimated
333
00:16:35,251 --> 00:16:37,251
the top of the vault would be.
334
00:16:37,376 --> 00:16:41,626
Then we drilled four holes in
the square and then got a saw
335
00:16:41,751 --> 00:16:44,710
and cut it and then made sure
we didn't drop it because it
336
00:16:44,835 --> 00:16:48,043
might have a vibration
alarm inside the vault.
337
00:16:48,168 --> 00:16:51,543
So we had to be careful not
to drop anything on there.
338
00:16:53,335 --> 00:16:55,043
So once they
have the hole cut,
339
00:16:55,043 --> 00:16:57,210
they bring the ladder up
from the side of the building
340
00:16:57,376 --> 00:16:59,710
and lower it down
above the vault.
341
00:16:59,835 --> 00:17:02,293
Amil and Phil enter
the building to look
342
00:17:02,418 --> 00:17:05,168
for the vault's silent alarm.
343
00:17:05,293 --> 00:17:07,168
As silently as possible.
344
00:17:07,168 --> 00:17:11,293
Any vibrations could land
the crew in handcuffs.
345
00:17:14,335 --> 00:17:18,626
Amil and I, we crawl down
on top of the vault.
346
00:17:18,751 --> 00:17:21,543
At this point, we're
looking for a junction box
347
00:17:21,710 --> 00:17:24,501
where the alarm was
coming from inside the vault.
348
00:17:24,501 --> 00:17:26,876
They came in through
the roof and they
349
00:17:27,001 --> 00:17:28,210
were trying to find the alarm.
350
00:17:28,376 --> 00:17:31,293
They were looking
for wires all around.
351
00:17:31,418 --> 00:17:34,543
Phil and Amil finally
find the junction box
352
00:17:34,543 --> 00:17:37,751
that should contain the
wires for the silent alarm.
353
00:17:37,876 --> 00:17:42,043
But they can't figure
out which ones, if any,
354
00:17:42,210 --> 00:17:44,460
are the actual alarm.
355
00:17:44,585 --> 00:17:46,585
They were looking
for the wires that
356
00:17:46,585 --> 00:17:47,210
will connect to
this box that sends
357
00:17:47,335 --> 00:17:49,376
a frequency to the police.
358
00:17:49,501 --> 00:17:52,418
And they could not for the
life of them find these things.
359
00:17:52,585 --> 00:17:55,543
Did they underestimate
this suburban bank?
360
00:17:55,668 --> 00:17:57,876
Does it have a kind
of silent alarm
361
00:17:57,876 --> 00:18:00,085
system they've never seen?
362
00:18:00,210 --> 00:18:02,501
With millions at stake
and the Cleveland mob
363
00:18:02,501 --> 00:18:06,751
expecting results,
they need answers... fast.
364
00:18:06,876 --> 00:18:09,210
So they're thinking, is this
bigger than we ever thought?
365
00:18:09,210 --> 00:18:10,960
What's going on?
Are we in over our heads?
366
00:18:11,085 --> 00:18:12,501
They were freaked out.
367
00:18:17,876 --> 00:18:20,543
In Laguna Niguel,
an elite crew of criminals
368
00:18:20,710 --> 00:18:23,043
is attempting to
steal $30 million
369
00:18:23,168 --> 00:18:25,626
from the
United California Bank.
370
00:18:25,751 --> 00:18:27,376
But the silent alarm
they need to find
371
00:18:27,501 --> 00:18:31,126
might as well be invisible.
372
00:18:31,251 --> 00:18:33,376
Amil says,
there ain't no alarm.
373
00:18:33,543 --> 00:18:35,210
I said, no, there's
gotta be an alarm.
374
00:18:35,210 --> 00:18:37,210
I said, move over.
375
00:18:37,335 --> 00:18:40,335
So I'm checking the
same way he was doing.
376
00:18:40,335 --> 00:18:42,418
And I said, dang,
you're right, what the hell?
377
00:18:42,585 --> 00:18:44,585
It's got to be in
here somewhere.
378
00:18:44,751 --> 00:18:48,335
They're in the middle of
this crazy, intense situation.
379
00:18:48,460 --> 00:18:51,710
The clock is ticking
and they can't find it.
380
00:18:51,835 --> 00:18:54,210
Maybe there's another
box in here somewhere.
381
00:18:54,376 --> 00:18:56,835
So we looked around, looked
around, looked around.
382
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:58,126
We couldn't find it.
383
00:19:00,293 --> 00:19:02,793
So now we figured we've
been in there long enough,
384
00:19:02,918 --> 00:19:04,376
let's get out of here.
385
00:19:04,501 --> 00:19:06,376
So after hours of
searching, they decide
386
00:19:06,501 --> 00:19:08,543
to regroup back at the condo.
387
00:19:08,668 --> 00:19:10,418
But before they leave on
that first night, they make
388
00:19:10,543 --> 00:19:12,668
sure to cover their
tracks, which means
389
00:19:12,793 --> 00:19:15,543
the hole that they've cut
into the roof, they take it
390
00:19:15,710 --> 00:19:18,001
and they put it back and they
seal it with a light layer
391
00:19:18,126 --> 00:19:20,210
of tar, which means
people from above
392
00:19:20,210 --> 00:19:22,210
won't know that anything
has happened to the roof.
393
00:19:22,376 --> 00:19:23,876
Nobody is the wiser.
394
00:19:31,585 --> 00:19:33,293
This team of
elite thieves isn't
395
00:19:33,418 --> 00:19:35,293
feeling very elite right now.
396
00:19:35,418 --> 00:19:36,876
The heist of the century?
397
00:19:37,043 --> 00:19:40,460
Well, it has fizzled
after four hours.
398
00:19:40,585 --> 00:19:43,876
They retreat to the condo
filled with doubt.
399
00:19:43,876 --> 00:19:46,710
If the bank's rumored
connection to President Nixon
400
00:19:46,710 --> 00:19:50,710
are true, then its security
setup could be something
401
00:19:50,835 --> 00:19:52,710
they've never seen before.
402
00:19:52,835 --> 00:19:57,460
Then, Phil Christopher
considers another possibility.
403
00:19:57,585 --> 00:20:00,418
It dawned on me after
a lot of thinking,
404
00:20:00,585 --> 00:20:03,085
could it be possible
they got it the old way?
405
00:20:03,251 --> 00:20:04,960
I mean, no,
they can't have it...
406
00:20:05,085 --> 00:20:06,460
I mean, can they have it?
407
00:20:06,585 --> 00:20:08,793
Phil suspects
that the silent alarm
408
00:20:08,918 --> 00:20:11,460
might be the simplest kind
there is,
409
00:20:11,585 --> 00:20:14,126
a configuration
so out of date
410
00:20:14,251 --> 00:20:15,793
that they can't imagine
a well-protected
411
00:20:15,918 --> 00:20:17,626
bank would still use it.
412
00:20:18,835 --> 00:20:20,335
They're unsure.
413
00:20:20,335 --> 00:20:23,501
It looks almost too simple
for what this heist is.
414
00:20:23,626 --> 00:20:25,710
At this time, they expected
the bank had the kind of alarm
415
00:20:25,876 --> 00:20:28,585
that they would need all their
sophisticated tools to jump.
416
00:20:28,751 --> 00:20:31,668
But what if it has the
old style of alarm?
417
00:20:31,793 --> 00:20:34,543
And Amil and James,
they look at one another,
418
00:20:34,543 --> 00:20:38,626
and look back at me--you
know, it's possible, you know?
419
00:20:40,668 --> 00:20:43,376
After dark on
day two, the crew
420
00:20:43,501 --> 00:20:45,376
hikes back across
the golf course
421
00:20:45,501 --> 00:20:48,543
to the bank to see if
they can salvage the job.
422
00:20:48,710 --> 00:20:50,418
Considering the Cleveland
mob indicates
423
00:20:50,543 --> 00:20:52,043
that there might be
Nixon campaign funds
424
00:20:52,210 --> 00:20:54,001
in the bank,
425
00:20:54,001 --> 00:20:56,501
they're thinking to themselves,
can it really be this simple?
426
00:20:56,626 --> 00:21:00,210
The team is risking
30 million on Phil's guess,
427
00:21:00,335 --> 00:21:03,460
but before he tries
to jump or bypass
428
00:21:03,585 --> 00:21:07,376
the interior vault alarm,
Amil Dinsio needs
429
00:21:07,501 --> 00:21:09,418
to disable the exterior one.
430
00:21:09,585 --> 00:21:12,376
To do this, he takes
some inspiration
431
00:21:12,376 --> 00:21:14,668
from the local surf scene.
432
00:21:16,126 --> 00:21:18,210
To beat the exterior alarm,
433
00:21:18,210 --> 00:21:22,543
Amil uses this liquid
surf foam
434
00:21:22,710 --> 00:21:25,543
that is used to prepare surfboards.
435
00:21:27,543 --> 00:21:30,751
Amil drills a hole in the
audible alarm and injects
436
00:21:30,876 --> 00:21:34,793
a fast-setting foam
that causes the alarm bell
437
00:21:34,918 --> 00:21:37,710
to seize up and not gong.
438
00:21:38,585 --> 00:21:40,585
So they have the
exterior alarm covered;
439
00:21:40,710 --> 00:21:43,293
it's that silent alarm
they need to jump.
440
00:21:43,418 --> 00:21:44,710
It looks like
Phil was right;
441
00:21:44,876 --> 00:21:46,501
it looks like a closed-loop
circuit alarm.
442
00:21:46,626 --> 00:21:48,918
And a closed-loop
circuit alarm can
443
00:21:49,043 --> 00:21:51,543
be bypassed by creating
a loop that keeps
444
00:21:51,710 --> 00:21:53,376
the circuit from breaking.
445
00:21:53,501 --> 00:21:55,043
And the alarm system
thinks that
446
00:21:55,168 --> 00:21:56,876
it's still guarding the vault.
447
00:21:57,001 --> 00:21:59,793
Because if you cut it, it'll
be an open circuit; that's
448
00:21:59,918 --> 00:22:01,793
when the alarm goes off.
449
00:22:01,918 --> 00:22:03,710
So they have to
keep the circuit going
450
00:22:03,835 --> 00:22:05,210
while they're both
cutting the wire,
451
00:22:05,376 --> 00:22:07,293
soldering it almost instantaneously.
452
00:22:14,001 --> 00:22:17,543
They retreat to the nearby
bushes to watch and wait.
453
00:22:17,668 --> 00:22:19,543
If they're right about
the silent alarm,
454
00:22:19,668 --> 00:22:21,668
they'll be heading
back into the bank.
455
00:22:21,668 --> 00:22:25,626
If they're wrong, they
might be heading to jail.
456
00:22:28,918 --> 00:22:32,085
After 20 minutes,
Harry radios them.
457
00:22:33,751 --> 00:22:37,293
No alarms, no police,
no problem...
458
00:22:37,418 --> 00:22:38,710
except one--
459
00:22:38,876 --> 00:22:40,793
Time.
460
00:22:40,918 --> 00:22:43,001
So they're behind schedule,
the clock is ticking,
461
00:22:43,126 --> 00:22:45,918
they're under pressure,
there is a lot at stake.
462
00:22:48,501 --> 00:22:51,876
The next step involves
backbreaking work.
463
00:22:52,001 --> 00:22:54,876
Before they can bring bags
of loot down from the roof,
464
00:22:54,876 --> 00:22:58,168
they need to bring
bags of sand up to it.
465
00:22:58,293 --> 00:23:01,960
The sandbags not only serve
as a way to muffle the sound,
466
00:23:02,085 --> 00:23:05,418
but also to direct the
energy downward as they
467
00:23:05,543 --> 00:23:07,501
explode into the vault.
468
00:23:07,626 --> 00:23:11,543
That is intensive work
that requires some muscles.
469
00:23:11,668 --> 00:23:13,793
They definitely had
muscle with them.
470
00:23:13,918 --> 00:23:16,085
With sandbags
in place, the team
471
00:23:16,210 --> 00:23:19,835
is ready to blast down through
steel-reinforced concrete.
472
00:23:19,835 --> 00:23:22,751
It's the part of the plan
that separates the pros
473
00:23:22,876 --> 00:23:25,543
from the amateurs,
and if they're not careful,
474
00:23:25,668 --> 00:23:27,835
limbs from torsos.
475
00:23:27,835 --> 00:23:30,043
So James,
our explosive expert, gets
476
00:23:30,168 --> 00:23:33,001
to work drilling holes
in the roof of the vault
477
00:23:33,001 --> 00:23:35,668
and filling it with
nitroglycerin putty.
478
00:23:35,793 --> 00:23:38,543
There's a very delicate
balance filling these holes.
479
00:23:38,668 --> 00:23:41,960
You need enough nitroglycerin
putty to get into the vault,
480
00:23:42,085 --> 00:23:45,293
but not too much so everything
crumbles or anyone hears you.
481
00:23:45,418 --> 00:23:47,210
People think it
just blows up, but no.
482
00:23:47,335 --> 00:23:49,876
You put the dynamite
cap in and then
483
00:23:49,876 --> 00:23:52,043
put the wires
together to bring them
484
00:23:52,168 --> 00:23:53,876
all up to the top of the roof.
485
00:23:53,876 --> 00:23:56,710
This is a good way of
blowing the concrete out.
486
00:23:56,876 --> 00:23:58,418
And then when
that's all hooked up
487
00:23:58,543 --> 00:23:59,876
together, got to know
what they're doing
488
00:24:00,043 --> 00:24:01,293
or they're going to
meet their maker.
489
00:24:06,418 --> 00:24:08,626
So this is the
moment of truth.
490
00:24:08,751 --> 00:24:11,043
They have these giant
sandbags, they've placed
491
00:24:11,168 --> 00:24:15,043
the explosives in the holes.
492
00:24:15,043 --> 00:24:18,626
They're very excited
to get this going.
493
00:24:18,751 --> 00:24:21,168
They want this to
be a one-shot deal.
494
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:24,501
James looks at Amil, nods.
495
00:24:24,501 --> 00:24:27,335
James flips the switch.
496
00:24:28,918 --> 00:24:30,585
Boom!
497
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,460
Sometimes the phrase
"blowing the roof off a place"
498
00:24:38,585 --> 00:24:41,043
is a figure of speech.
499
00:24:41,043 --> 00:24:43,085
On this job, it's real.
500
00:24:43,210 --> 00:24:47,543
The Dinsio's explosive
charges breach the vault roof
501
00:24:47,710 --> 00:24:50,543
of the United California
Bank in Laguna Niguel
502
00:24:50,543 --> 00:24:52,293
and they're in.
503
00:24:52,418 --> 00:24:53,793
And it's incredible.
504
00:24:53,918 --> 00:24:56,126
You expect to hear
this loud explosion,
505
00:24:56,251 --> 00:24:58,001
and they felt it
in their bodies
506
00:24:58,001 --> 00:25:01,085
but all they heard
was a muffled thud.
507
00:25:01,210 --> 00:25:02,460
And it's exciting.
508
00:25:02,585 --> 00:25:03,835
And it's great.
509
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,043
But they're also
worried that maybe
510
00:25:05,168 --> 00:25:06,918
they've tripped something.
511
00:25:07,043 --> 00:25:09,043
So they have to make sure
that there's no alarms that
512
00:25:09,043 --> 00:25:09,585
are sounded,
that nobody has been
513
00:25:09,751 --> 00:25:11,793
notified of this
explosion or otherwise.
514
00:25:11,918 --> 00:25:13,876
They check in
back at the condo,
515
00:25:14,001 --> 00:25:17,043
make sure the police scanner
hasn't heard anything.
516
00:25:18,251 --> 00:25:20,501
No one hears it.
517
00:25:20,501 --> 00:25:22,251
No one calls the police.
518
00:25:22,376 --> 00:25:25,085
No car alarms are going off.
519
00:25:25,210 --> 00:25:27,001
So now it's showtime.
520
00:25:27,001 --> 00:25:29,251
They have to cut through
a few pieces of rebar
521
00:25:29,418 --> 00:25:30,501
and they're in the vault.
522
00:25:33,043 --> 00:25:35,960
Dinsio's crew is now inside
what some mobsters call
523
00:25:36,085 --> 00:25:38,126
Nixon's vault.
524
00:25:38,251 --> 00:25:41,210
They still have to contend with
500 safe deposit boxes,
525
00:25:41,335 --> 00:25:43,501
but they're so close now
526
00:25:43,501 --> 00:25:46,126
they can practically
smell the money.
527
00:25:48,126 --> 00:25:50,751
Whenever you got
into a vault or a safe
528
00:25:50,876 --> 00:25:53,585
was always exciting
because you find out what
529
00:25:53,710 --> 00:25:55,960
reward you had coming to you.
530
00:25:56,085 --> 00:26:00,210
They see these
500 pristine security boxes,
531
00:26:00,335 --> 00:26:04,126
just Nixon's money
waiting for them to take it.
532
00:26:07,876 --> 00:26:09,668
Now, this is
really tough work.
533
00:26:09,793 --> 00:26:12,543
They have so many safety
deposit boxes to bust into,
534
00:26:12,710 --> 00:26:15,293
and not a lot of time.
535
00:26:15,418 --> 00:26:17,710
They're in this tiny vault.
The clock is ticking
536
00:26:17,710 --> 00:26:20,293
and they've got to get as
many of these as they can
537
00:26:20,418 --> 00:26:22,335
before their time is up.
538
00:26:22,460 --> 00:26:23,793
Rocco comes in.
He's the muscle,
539
00:26:23,918 --> 00:26:25,376
and he's going to help them
open those
540
00:26:25,376 --> 00:26:27,210
500 safety deposit boxes.
541
00:26:27,335 --> 00:26:30,460
There was a special tool
that was used on this job,
542
00:26:30,585 --> 00:26:33,626
and that tool was a snout
nose hammer,
543
00:26:33,751 --> 00:26:35,543
in which the end of the hammer
544
00:26:35,668 --> 00:26:37,543
was milled to the circumference
545
00:26:37,668 --> 00:26:39,876
of the lock boxes.
546
00:26:40,001 --> 00:26:42,960
So you place that hammer
up against the lock,
547
00:26:43,085 --> 00:26:46,418
you take a sledge, and you
pound the lock through.
548
00:26:46,543 --> 00:26:48,668
And then you're in.
549
00:26:51,418 --> 00:26:52,960
Charlie and I
started working,
550
00:26:53,085 --> 00:26:57,043
hammering, beating on these
boxes, popping them open.
551
00:26:57,168 --> 00:26:59,376
They're finding money,
they're finding jewelry,
552
00:26:59,501 --> 00:27:01,376
they're finding valuables.
553
00:27:01,501 --> 00:27:03,626
It was the score
of a lifetime.
554
00:27:05,251 --> 00:27:06,751
There's so much
money in this place,
555
00:27:06,876 --> 00:27:08,293
you know our hearts
are pounding,
556
00:27:08,418 --> 00:27:10,793
we're sweating there.
557
00:27:10,918 --> 00:27:13,751
I mean, there's so much
that it's burning our eyes
558
00:27:13,876 --> 00:27:18,835
and because of the adrenaline,
the heat, and the work.
559
00:27:18,835 --> 00:27:21,585
With less than five
hours to go before sunrise,
560
00:27:21,710 --> 00:27:26,043
the Dinsio gang works hard to
bag as much loot as possible.
561
00:27:26,168 --> 00:27:29,043
But delays have
run out the clock,
562
00:27:29,168 --> 00:27:33,376
and they still haven't found
the so-called Nixon cash.
563
00:27:33,501 --> 00:27:36,043
As dawn approaches,
564
00:27:36,043 --> 00:27:39,668
they have a $30 million
decision to make.
565
00:27:39,668 --> 00:27:41,710
It comes to a point
where they have to decide,
566
00:27:41,710 --> 00:27:44,751
should we keep going or should
we get out while we can?
567
00:27:44,876 --> 00:27:47,001
And by dawn, even though
they didn't get all the boxes
568
00:27:47,001 --> 00:27:49,793
they call it--
it's time to get out of there.
569
00:27:51,168 --> 00:27:53,210
The Dinsio crew
retreats through
570
00:27:53,210 --> 00:27:56,668
the diminishing darkness
to the safety of the condo.
571
00:27:56,668 --> 00:27:59,085
The team spends all
day Sunday debating
572
00:27:59,210 --> 00:28:01,751
whether to take the
loot already in hand
573
00:28:01,876 --> 00:28:05,418
or risk one more night
in the vault for more.
574
00:28:05,543 --> 00:28:07,876
The guys are on edge, but
they listen to the police
575
00:28:07,876 --> 00:28:09,293
scanner the whole next day.
576
00:28:09,418 --> 00:28:11,085
Nothing.
577
00:28:11,210 --> 00:28:14,043
Laguna Niguel is blissfully
unaware that their bank
578
00:28:14,168 --> 00:28:16,168
is being robbed.
579
00:28:16,168 --> 00:28:18,251
They have a great crew and
they have a great opportunity,
580
00:28:18,376 --> 00:28:20,001
so they make their way back.
581
00:28:24,168 --> 00:28:27,918
The crew decides going back
into the vault on Sunday night
582
00:28:28,043 --> 00:28:32,918
is less risky than going back
to the mob empty-handed.
583
00:28:33,876 --> 00:28:35,918
There's no more cutting,
there's nothing left
584
00:28:36,043 --> 00:28:39,210
to blow up--they just
spend the whole night
585
00:28:39,210 --> 00:28:42,043
going through those boxes
and getting that loot.
586
00:28:43,876 --> 00:28:45,710
They found a treasure trove.
587
00:28:45,710 --> 00:28:50,251
It's euphoric and sweaty, and
then all of a sudden they get
588
00:28:50,376 --> 00:28:51,418
a call on the walkie talkie.
589
00:28:54,876 --> 00:28:55,960
James says, quiet, quiet.
590
00:28:56,085 --> 00:28:57,960
We all stop, what, what?
591
00:28:58,085 --> 00:29:00,043
He's pointing to the walkie.
592
00:29:00,210 --> 00:29:02,043
And Mulligan says,
somebody just
593
00:29:02,168 --> 00:29:04,001
pull up in front of the place.
594
00:29:05,876 --> 00:29:07,585
It gets worse.
595
00:29:07,710 --> 00:29:10,251
Mulligan lets them know that
somebody got out of the car
596
00:29:10,376 --> 00:29:12,376
and is heading
towards the bank.
597
00:29:12,501 --> 00:29:13,668
And they're thinking the worst.
598
00:29:13,668 --> 00:29:16,168
I said, oh s***.
599
00:29:16,168 --> 00:29:19,043
Then Charlie says,
he's coming inside.
600
00:29:19,043 --> 00:29:21,918
We're just beside
ourselves now.
601
00:29:22,043 --> 00:29:23,918
What are we going to do here?
602
00:29:24,043 --> 00:29:27,043
He comes inside and
we're all listening
603
00:29:27,210 --> 00:29:29,501
because we don't understand.
604
00:29:29,501 --> 00:29:32,793
We've got the alarms
shut down and everything.
605
00:29:32,918 --> 00:29:34,793
What the hell is going on here?
606
00:29:34,918 --> 00:29:37,293
And outside of
the vault they hear footsteps,
607
00:29:37,418 --> 00:29:40,793
footsteps walking
slowly around the bank.
608
00:29:40,918 --> 00:29:43,460
They are trying
to make no sound
609
00:29:43,585 --> 00:29:45,251
at all if at all possible.
610
00:29:46,626 --> 00:29:47,793
It's so quiet.
611
00:29:47,918 --> 00:29:50,376
Next thing we know,
Charlie coughs.
612
00:29:50,376 --> 00:29:52,418
We turn to look at him.
613
00:29:56,668 --> 00:29:58,210
What the [bleep]?
614
00:30:02,251 --> 00:30:04,043
Dinsio Crew is finally
getting their hands
615
00:30:04,043 --> 00:30:08,793
on the real money when
an uninvited visitor arrives.
616
00:30:08,918 --> 00:30:10,876
And at the most
pressure-packed moment
617
00:30:11,043 --> 00:30:14,751
of the heist,
Charlie Broeckel chokes,
618
00:30:14,876 --> 00:30:16,876
literally.
619
00:30:17,001 --> 00:30:19,793
Amil and James look at him,
too, in disbelief.
620
00:30:19,918 --> 00:30:21,960
Coughing--now we're
listening real hard.
621
00:30:22,085 --> 00:30:24,418
We're listening to see
if the guy might have heard us.
622
00:30:28,376 --> 00:30:30,376
Keep in mind,
they're in a confined space,
623
00:30:30,501 --> 00:30:33,710
and there's particles of dust,
particles of concrete,
624
00:30:33,876 --> 00:30:37,085
and he cannot stop coughing.
625
00:30:37,210 --> 00:30:38,918
Then Charlie coughs again.
626
00:30:39,043 --> 00:30:40,376
I was in disbelief.
627
00:30:40,376 --> 00:30:42,543
I look at him, get
the [bleep] outta here.
628
00:30:42,668 --> 00:30:44,126
You know?
629
00:30:44,251 --> 00:30:46,835
He's trying to climb around
to get up on the stool
630
00:30:46,835 --> 00:30:48,793
to get up on top
of the cabinets
631
00:30:48,918 --> 00:30:50,793
so he can go up
out of the hole.
632
00:30:50,918 --> 00:30:53,543
And he put his feet
in our hands
633
00:30:53,543 --> 00:30:57,293
and we just like threw him
all the way up to the hole
634
00:30:57,418 --> 00:30:59,210
to get him out of there,
you know?
635
00:31:01,543 --> 00:31:05,210
And then they wait
for 30 agonizing minutes.
636
00:31:07,001 --> 00:31:08,876
Finally, Mulligan
gets on the walkie.
637
00:31:09,001 --> 00:31:11,335
The person has left.
638
00:31:11,335 --> 00:31:14,835
Harry chimes in, there's no
chatter on the police scanner.
639
00:31:14,835 --> 00:31:16,418
They gather up as much loot
as they can,
640
00:31:16,543 --> 00:31:18,876
and they get out of there.
641
00:31:18,876 --> 00:31:22,210
So after the guy came out
and he got in his car
642
00:31:22,210 --> 00:31:25,793
and he took off, well,
we figured we were good to go.
643
00:31:25,918 --> 00:31:28,751
The heist team has
miraculously pulled off
644
00:31:28,876 --> 00:31:31,210
the biggest haul
of their careers.
645
00:31:31,335 --> 00:31:33,501
With sunrise minutes away,
646
00:31:33,501 --> 00:31:37,918
it's time to make
those millions disappear.
647
00:31:38,043 --> 00:31:40,168
They give themselves
extra time
648
00:31:40,168 --> 00:31:43,210
by giving a coup de grace
to the vault door.
649
00:31:43,335 --> 00:31:46,043
They disable the door
by driving something
650
00:31:46,043 --> 00:31:47,960
into the locking mechanism.
651
00:31:48,085 --> 00:31:50,460
Amil Dinsio showing
his expertise,
652
00:31:50,585 --> 00:31:53,710
he's able to damage
the vault lock from the inside,
653
00:31:53,710 --> 00:31:55,751
so that
when Monday morning arrives
654
00:31:55,918 --> 00:31:58,043
and employees return to work,
they're not going to be able
655
00:31:58,168 --> 00:32:00,543
to get inside this vault
right away.
656
00:32:02,085 --> 00:32:03,418
The gang is cutting it close,
657
00:32:03,543 --> 00:32:05,793
so this is going
to buy them more time
658
00:32:05,918 --> 00:32:08,710
to hopefully get away safely.
659
00:32:08,876 --> 00:32:12,960
I felt like Santa Claus when
I was going back to the condo.
660
00:32:13,085 --> 00:32:14,168
So they get back
to the condo,
661
00:32:14,168 --> 00:32:18,376
and it's the first time
seeing what they got.
662
00:32:18,376 --> 00:32:20,085
And it is a fortune.
663
00:32:20,210 --> 00:32:22,210
And according to Amil Dinsio,
664
00:32:22,210 --> 00:32:24,376
they got the Nixon millions
and more.
665
00:32:24,501 --> 00:32:28,085
When I pressed Amil
for details, he smiled.
666
00:32:28,210 --> 00:32:30,626
It proved out
to be a great job.
667
00:32:30,751 --> 00:32:33,085
It was $30 million,
668
00:32:33,210 --> 00:32:34,960
you know,
can't ask for more than that
669
00:32:35,085 --> 00:32:36,376
when you're a burglar.
670
00:32:36,501 --> 00:32:39,251
By the time I went
to lay down to sleep,
671
00:32:39,376 --> 00:32:41,793
Charlie already had
$20 million,
672
00:32:41,918 --> 00:32:44,168
and there was that much more,
if not more,
673
00:32:44,168 --> 00:32:46,043
left to be tabulated.
674
00:32:46,043 --> 00:32:47,876
There was around $30 million
to $40 million
675
00:32:47,876 --> 00:32:49,335
that I could see.
676
00:32:54,668 --> 00:32:57,293
And by the time the bank
opens on Monday morning,
677
00:32:57,418 --> 00:33:00,418
the crew is not even
in Southern California.
678
00:33:00,543 --> 00:33:02,960
The Cleveland guys are
flying home,
679
00:33:03,085 --> 00:33:06,376
and Amil, James,
and Chuck are heading to Vegas
680
00:33:06,501 --> 00:33:08,501
to fence the loot.
681
00:33:09,376 --> 00:33:11,210
I recall sometime
around mid-morning,
682
00:33:11,376 --> 00:33:13,168
my partner at the time says,
683
00:33:13,168 --> 00:33:16,210
I just got a call
from United California Bank.
684
00:33:16,335 --> 00:33:18,626
He said, they told me they
can't get into their vault.
685
00:33:18,751 --> 00:33:20,210
We think we need you down here.
686
00:33:20,335 --> 00:33:23,418
There's a hole in the roof.
687
00:33:23,543 --> 00:33:25,085
Jim says,
don't touch anything.
688
00:33:25,210 --> 00:33:27,168
We'll be right down.
689
00:33:27,293 --> 00:33:29,376
I drove down to the bank.
690
00:33:29,376 --> 00:33:31,835
I go over to the vault,
and I'm looking down.
691
00:33:31,835 --> 00:33:35,043
You looked right
into the vault down below.
692
00:33:35,210 --> 00:33:38,210
You knew right then and there,
this is a career case.
693
00:33:41,668 --> 00:33:45,668
Initially, investigators fear
the thieves stole $50,000.
694
00:33:45,793 --> 00:33:50,043
But reported losses soon passed
$2 million,
695
00:33:50,043 --> 00:33:53,335
$4 million, $8 million.
696
00:33:53,460 --> 00:33:56,293
That's when the FBI realizes
697
00:33:56,418 --> 00:34:01,085
this heist is unlike
any they've ever seen.
698
00:34:01,251 --> 00:34:02,793
We told them it was
going to be a big one.
699
00:34:02,918 --> 00:34:05,168
We're going to have
to have manpower.
700
00:34:05,293 --> 00:34:09,376
I was working bank robberies
in the Los Angeles office
701
00:34:09,501 --> 00:34:12,251
at the time the Laguna Niguel
burglary occurred.
702
00:34:12,418 --> 00:34:14,626
And I got involved
shortly thereafter
703
00:34:14,751 --> 00:34:19,210
when we realized that the loss
was substantially greater.
704
00:34:19,210 --> 00:34:21,043
The FBI realizes
this is a big deal,
705
00:34:21,168 --> 00:34:23,376
so they put eight agents
on the case.
706
00:34:23,376 --> 00:34:25,793
J. Edgar Hoover is
the boss of the FBI
707
00:34:25,918 --> 00:34:27,376
during this time period.
708
00:34:27,376 --> 00:34:30,793
Mr. Hoover was a very
motivated guy,
709
00:34:30,918 --> 00:34:33,501
and therefore he motivated us.
710
00:34:33,501 --> 00:34:35,293
Then J. Edgar Hoover gets involved
711
00:34:35,418 --> 00:34:37,210
and the number
of agents jumps from eight
712
00:34:37,335 --> 00:34:40,543
to 125 in the first few weeks.
713
00:34:40,543 --> 00:34:43,793
Hoover personally committing
the FBI to the case
714
00:34:43,918 --> 00:34:46,751
stokes rumors about
what might have been stolen
715
00:34:46,876 --> 00:34:49,543
from the sleepy little bank
in Laguna Niguel.
716
00:34:49,543 --> 00:34:52,126
2,000 miles away,
717
00:34:52,251 --> 00:34:55,210
the crew is confident
they made a clean getaway.
718
00:34:55,210 --> 00:34:58,251
So when a Amil Dinsio
gets a new tip,
719
00:34:58,376 --> 00:35:00,501
it's too tempting to pass up.
720
00:35:00,501 --> 00:35:02,835
They decide
to do another heist.
721
00:35:02,835 --> 00:35:05,168
This one is in Lordstown, Ohio,
722
00:35:05,293 --> 00:35:08,210
at a bank across the street
from a GM factory.
723
00:35:08,335 --> 00:35:09,793
I talked to Dinsio about this,
724
00:35:09,918 --> 00:35:12,043
and I was like, why would
you do this at this point?
725
00:35:12,168 --> 00:35:13,376
You just got all this money.
726
00:35:13,501 --> 00:35:15,043
They decided a haul like this
727
00:35:15,210 --> 00:35:17,626
doesn't come around often,
let's do it again.
728
00:35:17,751 --> 00:35:20,210
I don't believe we should
have made another move
729
00:35:20,376 --> 00:35:22,960
on that Lordstown bank
730
00:35:23,085 --> 00:35:25,043
because we had
so much already,
731
00:35:25,043 --> 00:35:27,960
we didn't need that job.
732
00:35:28,085 --> 00:35:29,960
I had a bad feeling about it.
733
00:35:30,085 --> 00:35:32,710
There's a lot
of similarities in ammo,
734
00:35:32,835 --> 00:35:34,918
method of operation,
between the two.
735
00:35:35,085 --> 00:35:36,835
So much so
that it was pretty clear
736
00:35:36,835 --> 00:35:41,043
that our players were involved
in that bank burglary.
737
00:35:44,335 --> 00:35:46,710
I concluded that we needed
to figure out
738
00:35:46,835 --> 00:35:50,335
how the bad guys got
to Laguna Niguel, California.
739
00:35:50,335 --> 00:35:53,043
We had identified
a large group of people.
740
00:35:53,168 --> 00:35:55,418
We asked the major hubs
for airlines
741
00:35:55,585 --> 00:35:58,918
to run all of these names
through their system.
742
00:35:59,043 --> 00:36:02,001
We found subsequently
the five names
743
00:36:02,126 --> 00:36:05,751
we were looking for
within a couple of days.
744
00:36:05,918 --> 00:36:07,418
I admired the job they did.
745
00:36:07,543 --> 00:36:09,210
They were fantastic
bank burglars
746
00:36:09,376 --> 00:36:11,876
but lousy criminals.
747
00:36:12,043 --> 00:36:16,418
The phone records gave us
a witness named Earl Dawson
748
00:36:16,585 --> 00:36:19,043
who turned out to be living
in Tustin, California,
749
00:36:19,043 --> 00:36:22,085
and a friend of Mulligan's.
750
00:36:22,251 --> 00:36:24,376
I got the call
late in the afternoon
751
00:36:24,376 --> 00:36:27,376
to check out
Earl Randall Dawson.
752
00:36:27,376 --> 00:36:30,043
But the thing that really
hit me is his place of birth
753
00:36:30,168 --> 00:36:31,460
was Youngstown, Ohio.
754
00:36:31,585 --> 00:36:35,543
And you don't have to be an FBI
agent to say that's a clue.
755
00:36:35,668 --> 00:36:39,085
Frank Calley and his partner
go to Earl Dawson's residence
756
00:36:39,251 --> 00:36:42,460
and show him photos
of the usual suspects.
757
00:36:42,585 --> 00:36:45,418
He immediately picks
out Chuck Mulligan
758
00:36:45,543 --> 00:36:48,335
and says his old friend
from Ohio asked
759
00:36:48,460 --> 00:36:52,126
if he could park a car in
Earl's garage for a few weeks.
760
00:36:54,251 --> 00:36:55,793
While I'm talking to him,
the phone rings
761
00:36:55,918 --> 00:36:57,335
and he picks it up.
762
00:36:57,335 --> 00:36:58,376
He looks at me, and he--
763
00:36:58,501 --> 00:37:00,210
just a sec,
I'll be right with you.
764
00:37:00,376 --> 00:37:01,876
He says, it's Mulligan.
765
00:37:09,626 --> 00:37:10,960
June 1972,
766
00:37:11,085 --> 00:37:12,668
more than nine weeks after one
767
00:37:12,668 --> 00:37:14,460
of the largest heists
in history,
768
00:37:14,585 --> 00:37:17,085
the Feds get one
of the most implausible
769
00:37:17,251 --> 00:37:18,293
breaks of their careers.
770
00:37:19,710 --> 00:37:21,460
They're interviewing
an associate
771
00:37:21,585 --> 00:37:25,043
of Dinsio's gang
when Chuck Mulligan phones
772
00:37:25,168 --> 00:37:27,585
to discuss getting rid
of evidence.
773
00:37:27,751 --> 00:37:30,335
I said, do you mind if we
listen in on the conversation?
774
00:37:30,335 --> 00:37:33,376
Mulligan says,
hey, Earl, how you been?
775
00:37:33,501 --> 00:37:36,293
Then he said, I'm flying out
to LA tonight, get there late,
776
00:37:36,418 --> 00:37:38,001
and then I'm going
to come down to your house.
777
00:37:38,001 --> 00:37:40,710
I got to get rid of the car
in the garage, he says.
778
00:37:40,710 --> 00:37:42,543
Have the FBI
or anybody been around?
779
00:37:42,668 --> 00:37:44,960
And he said, no, nobody's
been around down here.
780
00:37:46,043 --> 00:37:47,085
He says, are you sure?
He said,
no, nobody's come around.
781
00:37:48,751 --> 00:37:52,043
And I said,
this guy we can trust.
782
00:37:52,168 --> 00:37:54,210
Could the car in the garage
783
00:37:54,210 --> 00:37:56,418
Mulligan is coming
to get rid of
784
00:37:56,543 --> 00:37:59,126
be the vehicle used
in the heist?
785
00:37:59,251 --> 00:38:01,501
Calley tells the FBI bosses
786
00:38:01,501 --> 00:38:03,626
that a suspect is coming
to him,
787
00:38:03,751 --> 00:38:06,876
and he quickly gets a warrant
to search the vehicle.
788
00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:11,126
They pop open the trunk
and they find ski masks,
789
00:38:11,251 --> 00:38:13,460
they find guns,
and they find the tools
790
00:38:13,585 --> 00:38:16,126
that were used
in the Laguna Niguel heist.
791
00:38:16,251 --> 00:38:18,835
It was clear
that everything in the car,
792
00:38:18,835 --> 00:38:23,043
everything in the trunk had
been wiped down significantly,
793
00:38:23,210 --> 00:38:26,585
with the exception of
a fingerprint behind the mirror
794
00:38:26,751 --> 00:38:30,251
when somebody apparently
was adjusting the mirror.
795
00:38:30,376 --> 00:38:31,835
Mulligan shows up.
796
00:38:31,835 --> 00:38:34,043
I walked up, said, Mulligan?
And he said, yes.
797
00:38:34,043 --> 00:38:35,543
The FBI.
798
00:38:35,668 --> 00:38:38,210
He said, what?
I said, you're under arrest.
799
00:38:38,210 --> 00:38:39,751
A true professional,
800
00:38:39,876 --> 00:38:42,543
Mulligan doesn't
rat out his crew.
801
00:38:42,543 --> 00:38:47,293
Even when FBI agents locate
the condo Harry Barber rented,
802
00:38:47,418 --> 00:38:49,418
the heist team isn't worried.
803
00:38:49,585 --> 00:38:51,835
They're confident
they've made quite literally
804
00:38:51,835 --> 00:38:53,543
a clean getaway.
805
00:38:53,710 --> 00:38:57,918
That place was wiped
from ceiling to floor
806
00:38:58,043 --> 00:39:01,793
of anything that could
possibly be evidence,
807
00:39:01,918 --> 00:39:06,001
anything, with the exception
of the dishwasher.
808
00:39:08,043 --> 00:39:10,043
Five people were identified
from the fingerprints
809
00:39:10,210 --> 00:39:13,376
on dirty dishes,
in that someone forgot
810
00:39:13,376 --> 00:39:15,376
to push the Start button.
811
00:39:15,501 --> 00:39:17,626
Fingerprints will
get you every time.
812
00:39:19,501 --> 00:39:21,751
They knew who did it,
they knew.
813
00:39:21,918 --> 00:39:25,376
They just couldn't figure out
how they were going to jam us.
814
00:39:25,376 --> 00:39:27,501
And that's why they were
on this like night and day.
815
00:39:27,626 --> 00:39:29,626
They had a great plan.
816
00:39:29,626 --> 00:39:30,876
They had the appropriate
team players.
817
00:39:30,876 --> 00:39:34,251
They had the right bank.
They had everything.
818
00:39:34,376 --> 00:39:35,585
However, they were
above it all.
819
00:39:35,710 --> 00:39:37,835
Now let's go to Lordstown.
820
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,751
FBI agents in Ohio
arrest Amil Dinsio,
821
00:39:41,876 --> 00:39:43,501
and in a search of his house,
822
00:39:43,501 --> 00:39:45,918
find rare coins
belonging to one
823
00:39:46,043 --> 00:39:49,210
of the United California Bank customers.
824
00:39:49,210 --> 00:39:52,210
Agents also find cash
they can trace
825
00:39:52,335 --> 00:39:54,126
to the Lordstown bank job.
826
00:39:54,251 --> 00:39:58,085
From there, they focus
on the so-called super thief,
827
00:39:58,210 --> 00:39:59,501
Phil Christopher.
828
00:39:59,501 --> 00:40:01,543
The FBI come to my home,
829
00:40:01,710 --> 00:40:05,751
and they came there to arrest
me for a probation violation.
830
00:40:05,876 --> 00:40:08,001
And sure enough,
because I didn't have
831
00:40:08,126 --> 00:40:10,668
the phony ID that day
I went on the airplane--
832
00:40:10,793 --> 00:40:12,126
they would have never got me.
833
00:40:12,251 --> 00:40:14,751
Never would have got me.
834
00:40:14,876 --> 00:40:20,543
In October 1972,
215 days after the heist,
835
00:40:20,668 --> 00:40:23,251
trials are held for both
the Laguna Niguel
836
00:40:23,376 --> 00:40:25,460
and Lordstown jobs.
837
00:40:25,585 --> 00:40:27,668
For all their meticulous planning,
838
00:40:27,668 --> 00:40:30,335
the Dinsio crew didn't
plan on this.
839
00:40:30,460 --> 00:40:33,251
Amil Dinsio,
Charles Mulligan,
840
00:40:33,376 --> 00:40:35,543
and Phil Christopher are convicted
841
00:40:35,543 --> 00:40:37,876
and sentenced to 20 years
in prison.
842
00:40:38,001 --> 00:40:40,876
James is convicted and gets
sentenced to 15 years.
843
00:40:41,043 --> 00:40:43,043
Harry Barber is a fugitive
for eight years
844
00:40:43,168 --> 00:40:44,876
before he's caught.
845
00:40:45,001 --> 00:40:46,710
But what about
the huge haul taken
846
00:40:46,835 --> 00:40:48,960
from the United California Bank?
847
00:40:49,085 --> 00:40:51,960
Whatever happened
to what Amil Dinsio insisted
848
00:40:52,085 --> 00:40:53,710
were Nixon's millions?
849
00:40:55,710 --> 00:40:58,793
After a heist of $20 million,
even $30 million or more,
850
00:40:58,918 --> 00:41:01,668
only a small fraction
was ever recovered.
851
00:41:01,668 --> 00:41:03,876
I don't think there's
a good final estimate.
852
00:41:04,001 --> 00:41:07,585
I personally believe it's
$50 million, plus or minus.
853
00:41:07,710 --> 00:41:09,126
But the feds, they recovered
854
00:41:09,251 --> 00:41:11,668
somewhere between $2 million
and $4 million.
855
00:41:11,793 --> 00:41:13,793
There is a lot more money
out there.
856
00:41:13,918 --> 00:41:15,501
According to the burglars,
it's something
857
00:41:15,501 --> 00:41:17,210
between $12 million
and $30 million.
858
00:41:17,335 --> 00:41:20,376
Where's the rest of the money?
859
00:41:20,501 --> 00:41:22,543
Somebody out there got rich
off this heist.
860
00:41:25,335 --> 00:41:28,918
For some, the missing
money just reinforces
861
00:41:29,043 --> 00:41:31,168
the Dinsio gang's
reputation...
862
00:41:32,876 --> 00:41:34,960
As the best heist crew ever.
863
00:41:35,085 --> 00:41:37,668
I haven't seen
anybody compare to us.
864
00:41:37,668 --> 00:41:39,876
You tell me if we're the best.
I know we are.
865
00:41:39,876 --> 00:41:42,918
Even the FBI said
we were the best.
866
00:41:43,043 --> 00:41:45,585
That burglary just
blew everybody away.
867
00:41:45,751 --> 00:41:47,501
They were meticulous.
868
00:41:47,501 --> 00:41:49,668
This is the biggest
bank burglary in history
869
00:41:49,668 --> 00:41:51,710
at that time in America
870
00:41:51,835 --> 00:41:55,876
with a very sophisticated plan
and some major bad guys.
871
00:41:59,543 --> 00:42:02,710
In the case of the United
California Bank burglary,
872
00:42:02,835 --> 00:42:05,001
there are still
unanswered questions.
873
00:42:05,001 --> 00:42:08,585
Was labor leader Jimmy Hoffa
really the catalyst?
874
00:42:08,710 --> 00:42:12,460
Was he trying, as mastermind
Amil Dinsio insists,
875
00:42:12,585 --> 00:42:15,376
to get back what he considered
his money?
876
00:42:15,501 --> 00:42:17,793
Whatever the answers,
the ingenious plan,
877
00:42:17,918 --> 00:42:21,418
bold execution, and millions
of dollars associated
878
00:42:21,543 --> 00:42:24,293
with the United California Bank
job place it
879
00:42:24,418 --> 00:42:26,876
among history's
greatest heists.
