Antwerp is a town in Belgium. What comes to mind when I say Antwerp? To me, at least, it's diamonds. It's the hub of the world's diamond trade. Well, I imagine if the town is bustling with diamonds, then it's probably also attracting some criminals wanting to steal those diamonds, right? In 2019, a robbery occurred that really took things to the next level.

It was actually a bank, and it was situated in the Diamond Trading District in Antwerp. Monday morning, bank employees came to work and checked out the vault, but something was wrong with the vault, and they called the police, who had to force their way into the vault, only to find that the place had been robbed. How, though? The bank had all the right security measures.

Cameras watching the bank doors, motion sensors in the bank, and sensors in the vault doors themselves. And everything was secured tight. So how did they get into the vault?

Drilling through a six-foot concrete wall. That must have taken a very long time. In fact, the criminals spent all weekend down there while the bank was closed so they can make a lot of noise without getting caught.

It reminds me of that Bob Dylan song. You know the one. Lily, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts. It's a nine-minute long song, and it's an epic narrative ballad. The story summed up is that Jack had his gang try to drill through the wall into a neighboring bank, while Lily and Rosemary distracted the bank owner, Big Jim. And the whole thing takes place in this cabaret?

Lily and Rosemary got the judge and the bank owner drunk while the boys made their way through the wall. And they cleaned out the safe and took off with the Jack of Hearts.
