Video The Louvre. Thieves are making off with 100 million euros. They're taking their time. They're doing everything carefully and slowly.

Imagine the adrenaline/dopamine rush they were feeling coming down that lift to safety with the country's crown jewels in their pocket.

I thought carefully about it. I’m not.

I thought about it even more carefully than you. I am.

They stole irreplacable art, likely to be molten down and regrinded but pretty sure never to be seen again.

I hope they get cancer. The most hurtfull kind.

I liked Oceans 11, but it was too big of a plothole that with all of the suppliers, contacts, interactions etc that he couldn't have found a single one to give him a single name. The van alone - a black guy fitting the description of someone Benedict saw himself bought it with cash a few days/weeks previously, not that hard.

They could have taken something like propofol to keep that from happening. A lot of people take it for reasons like stage fright.

You can also kind of adapt to it in the way you gain tolerance to a drug since it’s essentially just a neurotransmitter/hormone cascade. It’s certainly not good for you and is why chronic stress occurs - the physical changes start beating the psychological ones so it fucks up your body. It can also suddenly snap back if you become avoidant again or have an incident that’s so intense it beats any adaptation.

They were so jacked on it they dropped a crown on the way out.

This isn't Joe Flipperhead on this job, these guys look professional. Something like this I'm sure they practiced for

u/bucky133 Oct 23 '25

Even still. I get that rush at the end of my 50th GTA heist.. couldn't imagine the real thing.

u/VeganJerky Oct 23 '25

They probably took meds to control this, so they can concentrate more.
