1) swallow fake gem
2) wait
3) swallow real gem
4) profit

Will he be able to shiat Gunnery Sgt Hartman some Tiffaany cufflinks?

I_Am_Weasel		2012-09-11 02:14:08 PM

So the cops waited hours for the man to pass glass?

Not a job description I'd want.

BronyMedic		2012-09-11 03:14:34 PM

That's some Oceans 11 shiat right there. Makes you wonder who swallowed the real gem.

Well, shiat.

so i wonder, does that mean he can be charged as an accomplice? because if not, he and his partner pulled a sweet heist

Classic bait and switch move, he probably had an accomplice he passed it off to during the commotion.

No one posted the itsafake.jpeg from star trek yet? Or did the new movie's time line negate that?

Wait, what? That movie was called The Hot Rock when I saw it.

It's really good. Check it out.

karmaceutical		2012-09-11 05:25:55 PM

David Mamet couldn't think of this shiat!

anotar		2012-09-11 05:30:17 PM

Came for the Hot Rock reference, leaving satisfied.

Completely forgot about Slim Pickens BTW, good call there too!

I guess that's one way to make change.

impaler: 1) swallow fake gem
2) wait
3) swallow real gem
4) profit

1) insure real gem
2) carelessly "leave out" a copy for someone to steal. Doesn't need to be an accomplice. I can let a gem stolen real quick by someone I don't know if I want. Just look for the next shady character you see, invite them over, lay it out and say "have a look there, while I turn my back, I'll be back in a few minutes". Done.
3) claim insurance
4) sell gem

Alternately:
1) swap your employer's stock with fake
2) let fake get stolen
3) sell real gem later

So, Mr. Detective...you have your choice of of probing for narcotics up a cute girls hoohaw, or you can sift thru sushi based shiat to find a piece of glass. Your call.

I would need way a lot more than the diamond was worth before I'd swallow a FAKE, knowing that the cops were going to do everything short of chainsaw surgery to get it back.

TheSwizz		2012-09-11 07:26:15 PM

This is simply genius, and one hell of a take on smoke-and-mirrors.

HotWingAgenda		2012-09-11 09:16:35 PM

I remember the first thread on this several days ago. It was obvious from that article that the diamond was fake to start with. There was no real one.

Thrakkorzog		2012-09-11 09:38:07 PM

Why take chances... Shove a fire hose up this guys ass and lets see if the real gem is really in there somewhere.

BRILLIANT! Swallow a fake diamond BEFORE the real diamond, when the police recover the fake, they let you go.

/naw, they'll probably x-ray you and see the 2 stones

stonicus		2012-09-12 08:35:37 AM

And the real diamond thiefs walked right out of the vault dressed as SWAT members, carrying the diamond in a bag right in front of everyone...

AlaricD		2012-09-12 10:29:56 AM

So, they solved the case using the process of elimination?
