People Said It Was Impossible To Break Into This Vault, So Robbers Dug Their Way In

Dar Es Salaam Bank, 2007

In 2007, people were surprised to learn that guards at the Dar Es Salaam bank walked away with more than $282 million. However, some details remain unclear. For instance, how did the guards manage to move all that money without being detected?

People also wondered why the bank had that many American dollars on hand. Officials believed the thieves may have had a connection with the militias to pull off a heist that quietly. Employees were just surprised to find the bank’s doors open and the money gone.
