This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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

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

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

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.

There isn't any actual money inside.

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

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".

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.
