    Version I read a few days ago on News.com.au has some slight variations. Said it took 20hours to open whereas the above article claims it took weeks...

    Any way, version I read contains the juicy detail- how much was in the safe? Apparently $2.5m so hope they did toss him a few K! Big ass safe too, weighed 1,500kg.

    "One person, who saw it but doesn't want to be identified, says he's never seen that much gold in one place." Oh really? :rolleyes:

    The fact that this is published implies the owner (rightly) did not reward the locksmith beyond the agreed fee.
