The gimmick was you couldn't do it with tools.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 42 points 4 days ago

You can't use anything at all if it's effective actually.

[-] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 13 points 4 days ago

Fuck the rules, it's 3 million, I'm going to do whatever is necessary to smash that glass ๐Ÿ˜Ž

The images are made to look like CCTV footage of a bus stop, but there is zero chance they left that much money in there unprotected. You could just ram it with a car and haul it home. Either it's fake money or it was only there for a day with a crew for filming.

There was a contracted security guard there at all times, a rule that you couldn't use any tools, and they called it off after a day when the bus stop frame started to weaken. Only $500 of real money was placed on top of a bunch of fake money.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

There isn't any actual money inside.

Define tools. Does a .50bmg SLAP count? Because there's no way that glass is rated to take anti-mat rounds.

Of course you can't do it without tools, I wouldn't want to break a regular window without tools, get my hand all cut up again and shit (last time was an accident). "No tools" makes the contest meaningless.

[-] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Yeah - without tools would be impossible.

That being said, for that kind of cash, I'd accept getting my hand cut up and shit.

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 days ago

Well fair and even if you could one punch man that shit the glass should act differently due to the lamination so you prob would get less cut, but also do gloves count as tools?

[-] ohshittheyknow@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 4 days ago

The real gimmick is there isn't really 3 million in there.

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Walk up with steel stilettos and a practiced kick and you might have a shot.

You couldn't as you weren't allowed to. It was a bad marketing campaign because people think "omg why it's so easy".

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Yeah, not allowing any tools shows a lack of confidence in their glass.

The CEO that stood behind his company's bullet proof glass while an employee shot it with an AK or something knew how to do it.
