Stupid git :lol:
Do any of you guys have any justifcation for the assumption that this gold is being stolen?
Thought not.
Here's a version of the story.
I have to say I am extremelly dubious about this whole thing. If that is gold then the ingots must be hollow. The whole thing just doesn't look right.

a jeweller i know once told me (in the pub :D) that all the gold ever found would fit into an area the size of a football (soccer) goal area (square).
i dont know much about this story, but if the jeweller was right (and its not impossible that he's wrong, if you know what i mean :huh:) then that would be a shitload of gold to missing, like even on a world scale. just a thought :rolleyes:.
A truck that size would carry about 12 tonnes of oil. It looks like the tank is about a quarter full of 'gold'. If it really was gold, it would weigh about 65-70 tonnes. How is it that the axle isn't bent, the springs aren't at the bottom etc?
another good point, i refer you to my last one :rolleyes:

The Bank of England has a total gold reserve of 700 tonnes, at least a chap I know within the banking sector told me that.
well, i dont know much about football :rolleyes: so you'll have to help me out with the dimensions JPaul, and if you wouldnt mind squaring it then doing the rest of the math, it would be much appreciated ;)
Pol,
I think that your jeweler friend was waaaay off.
