  • Throughout history, quite a few bandits have tiptoed past guards, scaled high walls, and made their way into seemingly inaccessible places. These famous break-ins in heavily fortified locales lead to an important question: Are these venues as safe and secure as they claim?

    My 11 year old daughter has a bit of an obsession with heists, robberies, etc. The other day my husband and I were planning a trip to NYC for the fall, and I mentioned that the cheapest flights I had found were into JFK airport. My daughter looks at me and says, “I know JFK airport. That’s where the Lufthansa heist happened” 😳 👀 😅 She is Italian on her father’s side, it’s in the blood 🤣 🇮🇹

    Thomas Blood actually played the long game to steal the jewels. At the time, the public could view the jewels for a fee, so went as a parson with an accomplice posing as his wife. His "wife" feigned a stomach cramp and so Talbot Edwards took her to his apartment to recover. Blood feigned friendship with Edwards, even going so far as to buy his wife a new pair of gloves.
