Former Bank Robber Breaks Down 9 More Bank Heists In Movies and TV | How Real Is It? | Insider

Raise your damn hands! What about you? Back! Keep your hands where I can see them! If you are walking and see a group of people standing with their hands up or lying on the ground, the first thing you are going to do is call the police. Hello, I'm Cain Vincent Dyer. Over a period of two and a half years, I committed approximately over 100

they are. Okay, calm down. It's absolutely on point. Truck thefts are quite common. I think there was one in Los Angeles a week ago.

They said they had taken about $30,000. I think after review it was reduced to $15,000. In

real

ity, that is considerably small to hit an ar

d vehicle. The reason: that's where the banks get their money. That said, you are multiplying your danger level by a hundred. You know, those armored truck security guards are trained to respond and defend that money. It's very different from what a bank normally thinks, which may be to let you have it and just take it out of there. Dispatcher: Any units in the area? 1061 in progress. In fact, I used police scanners in many of my bank robberies.

It would take advantage of police activity within an area. Know when they will come, know how much time you have left inside. So, yeah, it's absolutely something that a gang of that caliber would have. Come on! Come on! We also see them changing cars after the theft, which is very, very, very common. All the cars they use are stolen, most likely not? Instead of stealing a car, what he would do is look up the make and model of the car he had and steal the license plate of an identical car. There are a lot of guys on teams that are like that.

You have to give 10 to "El Pueblo". What can I do for you, officer? Why are you closed? Thief: We will leave one by one. Nobody raises their head. Do not get up. I have gone to the banks shouting for them to take control. When I talk to bank employees one on one and instruct them to do something, I do it in a very gentle tone. That ability to adapt to a situation. And you see the difference between when he's at the bank talking to customers and when he changes his personality to deal with the police officer.

The pig doesn't work, Danny. I told you this thing is a fucking pig. The car doesn't work in that scene. You'd like to think you'd have a perfectly operational vehicle when you're going to commit a bank robbery. But hey, sometimes things happen. In fact, I think that's where many bank robbers leave their car running or park right in front of it. There is less effort to get in and start the car. They can just walk in and leave. Come on. Come on. Come on. Move, move, move, move. Get outside now! Go on time. F---. That? We see that there are undercover police officers outside inspecting the bank as well and waiting.

Years later, when I turned myself in, they told me they would actually do it. The FBI special agent who was assigned to my case would form teams and sit in front of banks and case banks looking for me to see if he was investigating a bank or robbing a bank. And it was all a guesswork job for them because I wouldn't leave them with much of a road map. But it's absolutely something that happens when you have larger gangs that are committing multiple robberies or multiple robberies have occurred within an area in a short time. There's a lot of special effects and stuff like that, but it's pretty accurate.

I would give it an eight. Raise your damn hands! What about you? Back! Keep your hands where I can see them! In many bank robberies, we witness robbers enter and yell at both customers and tellers to get down or raise their hands. That's something I definitely stayed away from. The thought process behind doing this is to have complete control of the movement. I never asked anyone to lie down on the floor or raise their hands. If you are a customer walking to the bank and you see a group of people standing with their hands up or lying on the ground, you are not going to go in.

The first thing you are going to do is call the police. Hello, hello, hello ladies and gentlemen. We are the

former

presidents! We see the bank robbers wearing the president's mask, the rubber mask. One of the bad things about wearing a mask: you're alerting people that something is probably going to happen here. I wore glasses and a baseball cap because I wanted more of the element of surprise and to make sure no one saw me walking up to the bank ready to commit a robbery. It's time, Mr. Carter! 60! Let's go, let's go, let's go! In and out in 90 seconds.

Get in and out in a minute and a half, practically on the money. Typically, once you enter a bank and the alarm goes off, depending on where authorities are located in relation to the bank, it will usually take about a minute and a half. You have a group of guys who are searching the drawers and depending on the location of the bank, they probably won't walk away with a lot of dollars. But I think the thing is quantity. Do a lot of these things, get in and get out, rather than spending too much time trying to make the jump.

But in most cases, when it comes to a group bank robbery, it seems to be the method they prefer. The overwhelming, the screaming and things like that. So, "Breakpoint", I have to give it a 10. I don't know of any such partitions that exist, but I've definitely seen preventative devices like that. Many bulletproof windows. There are these double doors that were created. Well, the way it's set up now in a lot of banks that have been robbed frequently is that once you go through the first door on the way out, they have a mechanism that can close the door to the outside where you're actually stuck in the middle there. .

Get down, get down, get down, everyone! Get on the floor! I personally never laid my hands on anyone. I always felt that the moment you start attacking people, you really add a whole new layer of fear, which can completely shut someone down. My biggest regret is that even though I never physically hurt anyone in any of the banking I did, there is still a psychological cost, of trauma, that people can take that I didn't take into account. So for me, part of my penance was not just turning myself in and serving a prison sentence voluntarily. It was also diving into victim impact, something I've done over the years, for the last 10 years.

He worked with many victims of violent crimes. Come on! Put that! Come on! Come on! What's up with that? I have definitely aborted several bank robbery attempts. One was purely instinctive and sure enough, within two minutes of sitting there, an unmarked federal car drove away. Two federal agents got out of it. On another occasion I had individual aggression towards me. And since I knew that the only way to avoid it would be through confrontation, I aborted immediately. There were just some inconsistencies there, so I'll give it a four. We see them enter the bank during a storm.

To be honest, those were my favorite times to pull off a bank robbery. Because? Because you don't stand out when you wear a big jacket. You don't stand out if you have a hood over your head and there are fewer people paying attention to things. Cell phones, cell phones, cell phones! Stay down! I used to believe that taking everyone's cell phone and stuff like that was kind of a waste of time, simply because it would add a significant layer of me time. By the time they make the call, you should already be in and out. And just disguise yourself properly so they wouldn't capture images of you.

Take a deep breath and relax. We're here to rob the bank, not you. We heard him tell customers, "Hey, this is the bank's money, not your money." I absolutely thought that robbing banks was a victimless crime because I was stealing money from the institution, not a family, a store, or an individual. Unfortunately, it is not a correct thought, simply because of what I mentioned in the past. Because you don't include someone's trauma. Personally, I've never tried to disable a security system, solely because what I was doing was hitting a vault and getting out very quickly, right?

In and out. That said, I have interviewed groups that have completely cut security systems and built tunnels under the bank. People who do those things usually go for multi-billion dollar banks. I can absolutely see a team doing it this way. Even making some of the mistakes they're making, I'll give it about a seven. Very well, then give me your weapon. Everyone sit down. Everyone sit on the floor. I find it interesting to decide to go to a bank with or without a security guard. Many security guards are also trained not to react aggressively. Most security guards are there as a deterrent, as a visual deterrent, and others are there simply to be professional witnesses rather than to stop a bank robbery.

Ladies behind the counter, keep your hands visible, not on the alarms, okay? We see him tell the bank employees not to sound the silent alarm. It actually differs between different banks and different branches, but for the most part, those devices are usually reserved for head tellers, managers, and assistant managers. Maybe someone in an administrative role at a desk. They'll set off the silent alarm when they realize you're about to leave, rather than creating a hostage situation. So it makes sense. Open the door. I don't have a key. What did you say? Every time I have instructed a bank manager or head teller to take me to the vault, they usually obey.

I always try to tone it down. What I was able to experience from the beginning is that the more you yell at a person, the more you make them nervous. When they are under certain pressure, they break. Was he hiding the key intentionally or did he just forget it? It's hard to say. It's hard to say if they're just nervous. I would give it about a six. Jackson and I will man the vaults because we know how to use the tools. You two are in crowd control. Make it clear that you are in charge or things could get complicated.

In this clip, we can see them planning a little about what they will do in this bank robbery. I would review every entry way, every exit. I set out to learn all the different routes that would take me back to my safe area. They're almost done with the vault. I would always like to get in and out of the vault in three minutes or so. In a situation where there is a group bank robbery or bank robbery, it would probably be much easier to break into a vault as long as it was open and they knew what they were doing.

But if you're a lone thief like me, it could be quite risky. But it is a method that I used. - Police. - Yeah! I mean, oh no, what a bummer, the police! There was a situation in 1997 where two off-duty agents working at a Los Angeles bank, out of uniform, simply posing as a customer inside the bank, confronted two bank robbery suspects, which ended in one of the suspects dying. But many banks don't hire armed security solely for that reason, because they know that another person inside the bank with a firearm is more likely to get involved.

Don't be mad at me, "Brooklyn" fans. I'm going to give them a two. Decelerate. I'm not speeding. The first thing people would think, well, why are you speeding? That's just absolute adrenaline. Once a guy told him to slow down, they rolled down both windows. That's something I actually did intentionally. Typically, you would assume that someone trying to get away from something would be trying to be as incognito as possible. That's it, come on. Ah, ah, ah, no packages. Just loose money. One of the bank robbers only demands cash, no bundles. There is a belief among bank robbers that much of the money that comes in bundles has dye packets that will explode once you get within a certain foot of the bank or have tracers, which is true.

I have encountered a tracker before. If it's a packet, it will usually be right in the middle. They believe that grabbing only loose change would prevent them from finding a packet of dye or a marker. Pretty clever, but it limits the money you get. Thief: Do you have a gun? Customer: Yes. Thief: Keep up to date with the circumstances, okay? Customer: Yes, I have it. So are you guys going to steal my gun too? In this scene we see that the client has a firearm. That's a big concern among bank robbers. Well, at least it was for me, which is one of the reasons why, before going to the bank, I would definitely do my homework.

He would monitor citizens leaving the bank, how they walked, whether they seemed aggressive, whether they seemed to simply follow the program more. And it's safe to say that's probably why only one guy came at me in all of those robberies. Fortunately they had no weapon. It's very real, except that they allow the guy to keep the gun by simply placing it on the counter. Go, run, go! Maybe we should go to that branch in Jayton. No, we are not. We got to those banks first thing in the damn morning. That same morning two banks were robbed.

I'm guilty of that. I knew that one bank probably had a certain amount that morning, and there was anotherbank that was in the area. They did it for a different reason. It was clear that they didn't get much in their first robbery, so their desperation led them to commit a second robbery on the same day. That was very real. We'll give it an eight. Finally something good. Oh it's good. Most people, whenever they see someone trying to steal an ATM, they usually have a chain around it tied to a truck and they are trying to get it out of somewhere.

Another thing, as you can see, it's very difficult to get into those things. Personally, I've never thought about robbing an ATM, but they have a lot of cash, so I understood why it would be tempting. Passerby: Spider-Man is fighting the Avengers at a bank on 21st Street. Normally, if a bank has a lot of glass, once it gets dark, it's easy to see inside those banks. All that glass will prevent people from seeing inside because of the reflection of the glass. Marvel fans, DC fans, please don't send me hate mail for rating this as one. My favorite bank robbery scene in the

movies

we watched today, definitely "The Town." "The Town" is there.

I don't think there's anything more real than what these guys did here. Click above left to see his next video. And remember, don't rob banks. Don't rob a bank.
