The concept of robbing a heavily fortified casino has been the subject of countless Hollywood blockbuster movies.

Bill Brennan and the Perfect Disappearance

One of the most famous and bizarre heists in Vegas history was committed by an ordinary, unassuming employee.

He did not use a weapon, a disguise, or an elaborate hacking scheme; he just casually strolled out with the money.

• Rumors persist that he fled to Mexico or was murdered by organized crime figures shortly after the theft
• The heist forced casinos nationwide to drastically overhaul their employee exit screening protocols
