  • Former burglar Octave "Oky" Durham and art detective Arthur Brand look at nine art-theft scenes from popular TV shows and movies and rate them based on realism. Octave Durham is no longer involved in criminal activity. Since he has reformed and spent time in prison, he works with detective Arthur Brand to solve international art and jewellery heists.
    They look at "The Thomas Crown Affair" (1999), "The Monuments Men" (2014), "The Art of the Steal" (2013), "Topkapi" (1964), "Ocean's Twelve" (2004), "Dr. No" (1962), "Black Panther" (2018), "Hudson Hawk" (1991), and "The Blacklist" S2E14 (2015).
    Could anyone walk out of a gallery with a piece of art? How are gallery security guards trained? Is gallery CCTV actually monitored? Do thieves ever abseil in from the ceiling? And does Interpol actively chase down stolen paintings?

      That is because they are talking from their experience. Thief is looking at how its really done(Successfuly) and how its done in the movie. While the detective must have been able to catch the unsuccessful heists or bad thiefs so his experience is that these stupid things are done by amateur people. Hence, the difference in ratings

    My partner is German, her grandfather (also German not Jewish) was an art lover, and, during WW2 he learnt about what the Nazis were doing to all the culturally priceless pieces of art. He actually hid Van Goghs, Rembrandts and other pieces of artwork in the large townhouse he lived in at the time. NONE of them were discovered all through the war. At the end of the war he surrendered them back to Allied liberating forces, as he saw them as belonging to all mankind to be enjoyed and viewed. He could have kept them and sold them on the black market but didn't.

      Not necessarily. While some laser sensors do actually need a sensor to detect something, like the cheap sensors used in detecting if something is in the way of a garage door closing, most laser sensors commonly used are something called a laser time-of-flight sensor. These send pulses of laser light in a specific pattern, and time how long these pulses take to return back to the sensor. Using this time and the speed of light, they can work out the distance to the target from the sensor, and from that figure out if they need to send an alert. These are commonly used in industrial automation for part sensing and detection in assembly lines.

    OMG I love these guys! I would pay to see a movie or buy a book about them and their true adventures. I do hope they are keeping a little journal of their lives. What amazing work.

    Mad respect to criminals that not only stop being criminals, but then go on to help stop the very activity they were once part of.

    Oh, I love them! This episode was really great and I hope the channel brings them back for another segment. To be frank, I'd watch a whole netflix show with these guys commenting on heists and movies. It was very entertaining and educational! (:

    I love there pair. They must be protagonists that came out of a movie or a novel and became reality.
    Edit: They said it themselves! Hollywood needs to make a movie about them. They are just so amazing.
