Watching the movie at the moment.

It woke up a question.
Do we have successful heists like what we can see in the movie in real life?

The Bank Job

I really enjoyed this movie. Based on a true story, not sure exactly how accurate the movie is.

There's a TV show that details some real heists https://www.imdb.com/title/tt18393692/
