Make it rain: Gold bars worth millions fall from plane over Russia

The hatch of a Nimbus Airlines AN-12 cargo plane opened after experiencing issues during takeoff in Yakutsk in eastern Siberia, the Siberian Times reported. The plane was carrying about nine tons of gold and other precious metals, the Interior Ministry told Russia’s Tass news agency.
