Hi Anton, look what a ridiculous story I found on the Internet.

Students inspired by the movie "Ocean's 11" In 2004, four


students from Kentucky, after watching the movie "Ocean's 11"
decided that they could easily repeat this plot. The guys wanted to
steal exclusive books: "The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin",
drawings and sketches of naturalist John James Audubon from the
university library and sell them on the black market.
During the first attempt, the students dressed up as elderly men
and glued on fake mustaches. When the guys saw two librarians
on shift, they went home. The next time they came to the library
without costumes. The plan was that one of the students would
attack the librarian while the others would quietly take the books.
The plan failed for two reasons. First: the librarian did not lose
consciousness, but started screaming, attracting the attention of the
library readers. The second: the books were heavier than the
students thought, so the boys lost them on the way out. Each of
the students received 7 years in prison. In 2018, a film based on
this story was released.
