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

    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.

    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.

    Yeah - without tools would be impossible.

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

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