Tubes 1, Banks 0




Came across this innovative and awesome bank robbery on CNET this afternoon, and had to share. Pretty fuckin' cool way to rob a bank if you ask me - if I ever go that route, I'm sure as shit hiring decoys. And involving water toys always adds degree of difficulty points to your score. I believe this to be the first inner tube escape of the year unless I missed something crazy on the Truckee River this past summer...

According to King 5 in Seattle, "
The robber sprayed the guard with pepper spray, grabbed a bag of money the guard was carrying and ran about 100 yards to the creek that runs into the Skykomish River, shedding clothes as he ran." And that's not as easy as it looks - if I try to strip off my pants while running I usually trip and fall, cops chasing me or not.

Nice work guy.
