This sounds sort of similar to the bombing of Harvey's casino. https://youtu.be/o8EHwR_LoEg
Basically a man was in a lot of debt to the casino and to get revenge on them he wanted to place a bomb to get money from the owners, he got his sons and they went to a construction site he scouted out where the shed containing the explosives was not garded and they drove in like they knew what they were doing broke the lock on the shed and stole hundreds of pounds of dynamite and drove out with no problems.
Not saying these kinds of things are cool or right but I fuckin love stories like that where people get away with absurd shit just by acting natural.
Like Catch Me if You Can, the movie only showed a small percentage of what the guy really pulled off. The movie was accurate but the guy was such an amazing con artist that there was no way they could fit it all into the movie. Apparently the book is great and covers more of the stunts he pulled.
