$39 Million (Pound) Bank Robbery

This is an amazing amount of money, that equals about 74,500,000 US Dollars.

A gang that pulled off one of the biggest cash thefts in history posed as police and walked into the homes of two bankers, taking their families hostage to force them to help in the audacious Belfast robbery, neighbors said Wednesday. Dozens of detectives were interviewing the two families and employees of Northern Bank, which lost at least $39 million when robbers cleaned out its central cash vault.

Luckily for John McClane, he wasn't with the executives this time. Because if he had I'm sure it wouldn't have been as successful.
