As he left with over $60,000, the trolley wheels got stuck in the sliding door tracks. Two airport cops helped him clear the door tracks and then load the loot into his station wagon since "the armored truck is busy elsewhere."

Imagine the meeting those two cops had with their boss the next day.
That man is quite possibly the most brilliant man to have ever lived.
