I have to give the guy credit for not acting like he didn't do wrong because he never physically harmed anyone, and addressed the psychological trauma he caused to customers / tellers. It's something you very rarely hear former bank robbers actually address. Good on him.

I actually just watched that movie when I was on a long flight a few months ago. Never heard of it or anything, it was just there as an option and I went for it and it was absolutely amazing!
I was an armored car driver. We absolutely were NOT trained to shoot at people to defend money. We were trained to defend OURSELVES, but only if absolutely necessary. Otherwise, the money is insured and we would give it up in a heartbeat if someone got the drop on us.
Ahh nothing gets in the way of the media getting a little entertainment out there… even if it does end up hurting people down the road. What do they care…
that's also the legal requirement, right? you can only shoot if you're in personal danger? i imagine there's a lot of crossover with armed vehicle robberies, assuming they involve gunfire while the vehicle is moving.
I worked in a bank for years. The first sentence of the first day of robbery training is. Let them have it. The money is insured and no one needs to play the role of hero. If someone tries to engage the robber(s) they will actually get in a lotbof trouble because the whole point is to get them out of the building
Yep, I can vouch. I was a vault teller for first security. I was sent to work at a location where the bank was horribly positioned in a grocery store and was a huge robbery target. It was ALWAYS impressed on us that if we weren't authorized to pull the bait money or bill trap, you don't do anything but observe all details you can while complying
two i know personally. both solo's like him. never asked either of them whether they felt remorse back then and it was 30 years ago so they don't talk about it anymore and would be rude for me to bring up. @@EikottXD

He is one of those guys I wanna have a beer with and just listen to his stories. Not just the heists but also the entire context. I dont think heists are fascinating but the big picture is.
I worked in a bank as a teller and in addition to the silent alarm which for us looked like a doorbell attached to the bottom of the desk, some drawers had bait money which was usually a $100 bill in its own pocket in the drawer with a clip holding it down. That bill would have its serial number registered so that if it was used it could be tracked and if it was recovered it would prove the cash came from a robbery. When you would pull it out of the clip it would also trigger the silent alarm. We were never really briefed on all the security measures and there are additional precautions taken that I wont discuss but don't think that you are safe by only taking loose bills.
Makes sense that they wouldn't share every security measure with the tellers. After all, there are many real-life bank robberies that involve either current or former employees.

Ours was in a separate band, I always thought it would be super obvious that a strap had only 2 $50 bills or 1 $100 bill…they told up to try and slip it off before handing the money over but that also felt hard to do in a scary or stressful situation

If memory serves, I believe that the producers of The Town consulted former bank robbers and asked them how to make their robbery scenes more relativistic and what to do before and after a robbery.
You're actually correct. One of the co-producers met with actual former bank robbers who were in jail to get a better understanding of what its like to rob a bank. So yes they were actually smart enough to do enough research in order to make the movie as authentic as possible.
We witnessed a bank robbery when I was probably 5 or 6 years old. My mom drove up to the front and could see everyone inside laying on the ground and one dude with a gun walking around, she called 911 and we got tf out of there.
I always don't get the people that just watch those robberies or try to be the heroes. You don't know if the robbers are crack heads and will shoot anyone, or what they will do.
@@BabyJesus66though he clearly has not gotten stitches yet. Might want to re-think that belief. Most snitches in fact do not get stitches. That’s just facts.

I would like him to comment on more subtle robberies, like "Out of Sight (1998)" with Clooney's character sweet talking it undetected. Even more interesting, but possibly out of his expertise, would be to comment about "cat burglar" style heist. In, out, no one even knows the theft took place.
I think it’s its own crime in itself that he didn’t watch the one of the robbery scenes from HEAT Come tf on, the armored truck at the beginning? The metal grabbing in the warehouse? The bank shootout?! There’s so many scenes he can react to in that one masterpiece of a movie 😭
I worked at a bank. The craziest thing that happened was this one crazy guy who tried to steal an ATM with one of those bobcat forklift things. He picked it up clear from the ground, completely detaching it, then just drove off with it. You would think, o they probably found him because of the tracking device or cameras, hahaha nope. The guy hit the sidewalk curve on his way out, the ATM tipped, he panicked and just drove off on the forklift. I heard it took the cops less than 10 minutes to pull him over and catch him. It would have been less but the guy led them in a low speed chase. Surprise surprise, the guy was seriously intoxicated. I laughed so hard when I came into work the next day.
The article from his sentencing said (according to court records) that he DID tell customers to get on the ground. I’m so glad he turned his life around, hopefully his story will help others!
The LA Times article doesn't state where that specific summary comes from. Usually they say, "according to court records," or "according to prosecutors." So while the author may have accurately described the information they received, the source of that information can say a lot as well. Having worked for a felony criminal court judge, that information may be one sentence selected from the abundant court records. One sentence in a prosecutor's proffer that he gleaned from police reports. The prosecutor at plea may not even be describing one of his own cases, he may be covering for a peer (happened every day before the judge I worked for). Maybe it is selected from the judge's comment. Or from the pre sentence report. If a defendant objects to that sentence, that it is inaccurate, where would an objection to a single fact be noted? Often a defendant's response/objection is tucked away inside an interview in 20 off pages of a PSR. And the accuracy of whether victims are told to lie on the ground is not important enough to either the PSR writer or the judge (or the article author) to affect the recommendation of sentence (PSR writer), actual sentence (judge), or story (author of article). Even the defense attorney would tell the defendant to not worry about a misstatement (if it was) that he told people to lay on the floor, as it isn't realistic to get 100% of the facts accurate throughout a trial. Especially when everyone's focus, especially the defendant in this case, was on remorse and turning his life around. Is he going to withdraw his plea just because this fact was false? Just because he never told people to get in the ground? No. Accept it all, take the great deal and supervised release.
My stepfather here in Australia has worked on those petitions at 6:32. He said as they were taking the bank apart they needed to be extremely careful of it and get to the wires, which in turn were heavily protected. He said it was the longest project he's ever done on a building of that size solely because of how hard it was to actually get to everything.
When I worked at the North Carolina State Employees' Credit Union, we had alarm switches in each drawer that would activate if you took out the last $100 bill of the till, and the clip would be hidden by the rest of the bills stacked on top of it. There was also a silent alarm at every desk and teller station in the building. If we were robbed, we were instructed to not pull the $100 bill to activate the alarm and to tell the robber it was there if they asked for the last bill. We were only allowed to pull it if it was obvious that was the last thing they were taking. Of course, that was between 2007 and 2009, so that all could be different by now.
@@logical_evidence because if they were still in the building when the cops came, you'd be creating a potential hostage situation. We were instructed to activate silent alarms after the perpetrator exited the building to avoid hostage situations, and so we could observe their vehicle and direction of travel.
Read up on the typical take from a bank robbery. It’s chump change especially if you have to split it. Wouldn’t even get enough to pay rent for 6 months in any city worth living in
Guy commits a number of crimes without physically hurting anyone. Realises that what he's doing is still hurting people. Turns himself in, spends 10 years in prison, then chooses to devote his time to helping victims of crimes. Yeah, I can totally see why everyone is calling for him to spend 100 years in prison. The man is clearly irredeemable. No bloody wonder the US has more of it's citizens behind bars per capita than any other country in the world if that's the attitude.
By the sliver of account that I got from his videos, and especially in light of him serving full time and his after actions, he seems to be the poster child for rehabilitation vs recidivism He was a crook and his word will always be suspect, but he does seem to be making genuine amends and as he says, penance. Thats fair. Context is everything, both in his criming and in his healing. He deserves his chance and he's making good on that. All of this is more than can be said for many others, this guy definitely doesn't deserve life or other harsher punishments. He paid the price society demanded, and he's still making payments as his conscious demands. No one else should continue to punish him for deeds done and in the past.
We made slavery illegal but left an exception for prisoners. The culture to justify the bullshit gets built around the ends(slave labor). Give the Murdochs the finger for us

YOU are no better than America. The US has more citizens behind bars because of the legacy of slavery and every emotion that came after it. That is all.
He’s right about security being there just to be a witness. I worked at a BofA branch that had an armed security officer everyday. Eventually they took his gun, lowered his pay because he’s no longer armed and took his vest. This was area wide. Ridiculous in my opinion
I was a guard to a BofA Mortgage Office in a secluded area that was always unlocked but alarmed and I triggered the alarm twice a week until I stopped checking the door as unlocked.
That bank device in heavens burning DOES exist, I have a friends whose dad is head of security for a few banks and he told me a story of someone robbing a bank and that exact thing happening Edit: Should probably clarify he isn’t head of the entire bank company, just the individual banks
That was great! My brother is still in Law Enforcement in Texas, and he told me a story about this guy who stole cars, robbed banks close to highways, but always wore a suit and gave the cashier a rose. He was a real gentleman. IT took them years to catch him and he robbed a LOT of banks. He was even chased a few times and no way they caught him. When they finally did, they asked him why he robbed sho many banks and that he should have been a race car driver. He said, that he was, but kept crashing his cars, so he had to replace them. True story! LOL
He didn't just wake up one day and develop a good concious and say "You know, I should send myself to prison today." They must have been ready to come down on him.
I would love to see this gentleman do the same thing but for video game bank robberies such as the payday series, gta, etc. I'm curious to hear his thoughts on them.
Which is hilarious since a former girlfriend of a friend went to high school with Ben Affleck and he used to bully her over her townie accent and where she came from.
The rising barrier at 6:30 was introduced or invented in the UK in the 80's or early 90's as a deterrant, the mechanism didn't rise as such, the desk went from horizontal to vertical in most cases and would do so in about 0.1 seconds so the robbers wouldn't have time to react. The shock value and inability to actually access the money was the reason for these devices being installed.
Seems like the technology we have available today would make it feasible for a bank to scan the serial numbers of ALL the cash they receive, or better yet to have the cash already scanned before it's loaded on the truck. When the bank receives a shipment of cash from the armored car company, they also receive the digital file of each and every note's serial number. That way if and when they have a robbery the thieves are hosed from the get-go.
Great react. The comments though... is it really possible that so many people don't know that when your prison/jail sentence is over you get released?? I honestly believed that adults knew how that worked.
Its actually not that difficult to get into an ATM. Montreal had a rash of bank robberies many years ago where the robbers used a chainsaw to get through the roof and into the ATM room, and then using nothing more sophisticated than a crowbar and a sledgehammer, managed to bust open each unit which during normal times would carry about 30k each if they were freshly stocked, more around the xmas holidays
Out here in Honolulu, the robber usually hangs the teller a note: however there have been a couple of violent robberies at banks with shoot outs. Have had ATMs pulled out at night with a truck. Once in a while a bank employee will steal from the bank aka embezzlement.
I was certain I was going to watch a robbery while I paid my mortgage the other day. Dude walked in with a balaclava and gloves during August right after the guard left for a smoke. You could see everyone get uncomfortable. I'm glad he didn't threaten anyone, as it would have ended terribly for him. He was an absolute idiot.
"Most guards are there to be a visual deterrent or a professional witness" that explains why the guy was 100 years old and already sleeping on the job.
When I was a senior in high school Star episode 2 came out in theaters. I was waiting at the movie theater to see this movie. Armored truck pulls up in the front of the theater I was waiting to watch the movie. Third one comes out of the back of the truck walks behind the two guards and puts a two bags full of money right next to me the third bags has movies in them. Their was no guards guarding the bags. I got up look for them and I almost took the money instead of the movies. My car was less than 100 feet away from where I was sitting at.

"Give us the gate key."
"i have no gate key."
"Fezzig, tear his arms off."
"Oh, you mean this gate key."
He’s right about security being there just to be a witness. I worked at a BofA branch that had an armed security officer everyday. Eventually they took his gun, lowered his pay because he’s no longer armed and took his vest. This was area wide. Ridiculous in my opinion
Bofa? U trying to fool us and make us seem like absolute buffoons? Imbeciles? We know what you are doing.
Bofa deez nuts
I was a guard to a BofA Mortgage Office in a secluded area that was always unlocked but alarmed and I triggered the alarm twice a week until I stopped checking the door as unlocked.
The most famous bank robbery money wasnt in here???? HEAT
Damn i was waiting for The Dark Knight and Babydriver
That bank device in heavens burning DOES exist, I have a friends whose dad is head of security for a few banks and he told me a story of someone robbing a bank and that exact thing happening
Edit: Should probably clarify he isn’t head of the entire bank company, just the individual banks
I did federal time,and the amount of bank robbers in there was insane.
0:16 hang on a minute- you can't just speed past that✋️😭
Kangaroo Bandit (if I remember correctly)
That was great! My brother is still in Law Enforcement in Texas, and he told me a story about this guy who stole cars, robbed banks close to highways, but always wore a suit and gave the cashier a rose. He was a real gentleman. IT took them years to catch him and he robbed a LOT of banks. He was even chased a few times and no way they caught him. When they finally did, they asked him why he robbed sho many banks and that he should have been a race car driver. He said, that he was, but kept crashing his cars, so he had to replace them. True story! LOL
Dude didn’t even get caught. He turned himself in, crazy
He turned himself in because he was about to be caught...that's how it works.

I can't imagine how the contact list of the guy from insider calling all the movie reviewer be like- assassin, Robber, mob, thief 😂😂😂
That person is 100% on a government list. 😆
I had never thought of this before but now I cant stop picturing his cell phone contacts 😂
The armrest is broken. Grats to the prop guy and the editor. 6:44
Should have included the bank robbery scene in Raising Arizona.
"Did y'all hear that? We're usin' CODE NAMES!"
17:30 They won't hate on the low score but will crucify him for mixing the 2 fandoms 😂
He didn't just wake up one day and develop a good concious and say "You know, I should send myself to prison today." They must have been ready to come down on him.
The Town is one of my favs
Now we just need Dallas, Hoxton, and Wolf on!
I would love to see this gentleman do the same thing but for video game bank robberies such as the payday series, gta, etc. I'm curious to hear his thoughts on them.
dude is easily the foremost leader on bank robbery experience. No one else could even possibly find themselves in that many bank robberies.
Pretty interesting topic but you guys need to let the movie bits play out a bit longer instead of him reactin to 5 seconds of it :)
I was hoping he was gonna do the Joker in Dark Knight or Public Enemy idk I just enjoyed hearing him talk about this stuff
This guy had an incredible lawyer lol
He had to snitch on someone there’s no way he definitely a Confidential Informant
Lol, how he smiles when he said: "There was just one in Los Angeles a week ago!"
"Whatever you choose to be in life, be a good one." lol
The Town & Den of thieves are in my book of favorite movies!! Always go back to watch those!👏🏾
What a jovial personality. he really seemed to have loved his job lol
Got bored with not getting caught so he turned himself in
Kinda wish they also reacted to Good Time and Wrath of Man in this as well tbh.
I freaking loooooove The Town and Ben Affleck is really protective of Boston and its stories so it’s good to see that it’s a legit heist.
Which is hilarious since a former girlfriend of a friend went to high school with Ben Affleck and he used to bully her over her townie accent and where she came from.
This man absolutely rocks a pink suit
Need to get some wood glue on that armrest.
Bro the Town is so sick. I always tell people it's one of the best heist films. After I watched it I decided I'd watch any film Affleck directs.
He's back Yesssss
I know it wasn't exactly a BANK robbery, but I'd love to hear his take on the clusterfuck that was the bookies scene in Snatch :D
My cousin took part in a🇨🇭bank robbery in 2005
This dude is a master
who is a master? your cousin or the host? and either way - what has your cousin to do with your opinion?
Where's your cousin now? In jail?
No HEAT reference??? Are you kidding me???
The rising barrier at 6:30 was introduced or invented in the UK in the 80's or early 90's as a deterrant, the mechanism didn't rise as such, the desk went from horizontal to vertical in most cases and would do so in about 0.1 seconds so the robbers wouldn't have time to react. The shock value and inability to actually access the money was the reason for these devices being installed.
I love that he has so much integrity
Seems like the technology we have available today would make it feasible for a bank to scan the serial numbers of ALL the cash they receive, or better yet to have the cash already scanned before it's loaded on the truck. When the bank receives a shipment of cash from the armored car company, they also receive the digital file of each and every note's serial number. That way if and when they have a robbery the thieves are hosed from the get-go.
This guy should play Payday 2 and Payday 3 ;)
The Town is a modern crime classic. It's a perfect movie!
0:16 Imagine being unsure of the exact number of bank robberies you've committed
Armored car employees are only given a gun but are not trained to use them let alone willing to risk they're lives for money that's not theirs
It's criminal that Heat was not on this list.
I think police scanners are pretty easy to get. Its actually completely legal for regulae people to have them.
Only illegal if you are using it durring the commission of a crime.
I think the town is one if the BEST bank robbing movies ever
The town is my all time favorite too
Point Break is on my top 10 favorite movies list. One of Gary Bussy's top rolls
if you ever have him again, he needs to comment on Inside Man
Great react. The comments though... is it really possible that so many people don't know that when your prison/jail sentence is over you get released?? I honestly believed that adults knew how that worked.
Great clip,was hoping to see inside man…
Hmm, seems like robbing banks can actually lead to cool job in entertainment. Maybe I’ll have to explore that as an option
thanks for the advice
Oh let's go, more from Cain!
more than the video itself I'm more curious about how a bank robber is outside the jail😂
His comments on robbery scenes in Heat and Baby Driver would have been interesting
Those are in the first video he did
I cant belive we live in a word when a bank rober is popular
Thank you for tips my friend
This is my all time favorite movie. Nice insight and interesting video
Which one? There were a few!
Imagine being a bank robber and now you gets paid to talk about bank robberies for a living.
“gets paid”
Was paid…once for the video. Money is a finite resource, nothing is forever.
Should have him do the GTAV Casino Heists
His suit jacket is the real crime
Its actually not that difficult to get into an ATM. Montreal had a rash of bank robberies many years ago where the robbers used a chainsaw to get through the roof and into the ATM room, and then using nothing more sophisticated than a crowbar and a sledgehammer, managed to bust open each unit which during normal times would carry about 30k each if they were freshly stocked, more around the xmas holidays
Out here in Honolulu, the robber usually hangs the teller a note: however there have been a couple of violent robberies at banks with shoot outs. Have had ATMs pulled out at night with a truck. Once in a while a bank employee will steal from the bank aka embezzlement.
Surprised you guys didn’t cover Den of Thieves
I love this guy. He's such a surreal character who's clearly matured well given all he's been through. More vids with CVD!!!
I was initially thinking this was a re-upload. Thankfully, its not
the town is such a good movie
I was certain I was going to watch a robbery while I paid my mortgage the other day. Dude walked in with a balaclava and gloves during August right after the guard left for a smoke. You could see everyone get uncomfortable. I'm glad he didn't threaten anyone, as it would have ended terribly for him. He was an absolute idiot.
So, what ended up happening? Did he bail?
@adlockhungry304 he gave his banking info and they did a normal transaction. He was just dressed like an idiot, and upset everyone in the building.
@@adamcavanaugh4940I see people wearing ski masks all the time. They think it's cool, in reality they look like idiots

Leaving out The Place Beyond The Pines and Heat is criminal
"Most guards are there to be a visual deterrent or a professional witness" that explains why the guy was 100 years old and already sleeping on the job.
When I was a senior in high school Star episode 2 came out in theaters. I was waiting at the movie theater to see this movie. Armored truck pulls up in the front of the theater I was waiting to watch the movie. Third one comes out of the back of the truck walks behind the two guards and puts a two bags full of money right next to me the third bags has movies in them. Their was no guards guarding the bags. I got up look for them and I almost took the money instead of the movies. My car was less than 100 feet away from where I was sitting at.
