Are you referring to the Alpha Caper? Great movie, but they did not get away with it. Time will tell with this one. Very hard to fence that gold. All bars enumerated, that makes it difficult to move on the black market.

Two tons would be easy to move in a facility that is in the business of moving cargo.
A fork lift and a medium size box truck and your out the gate.
Drive the truck to a near by warehouse. Load the gold to a different container and transfer the crate to a different truck.
Falsify a bill of lading Incase you get stopped by the DOT and go down the road.

Sounds like a lot until you realize how much SFTX stole with a few weightless keystrokes.

You’re probably an older guy, because you mentioned that phrase. And I’m probably an older guy because I recognized it.

—”The Heist. Gene Hackman, Danny Devito.”
Close, but no cigar.
Motr like the original 1969 “The Italian Job”
IIRC The jump was between two buildings at the Fiat factory.
