US Americans can't even find their bridges because they don't have maps like the Iraq and South Africa.

If I were to steal something that big, I wouldn't just chop it up and sell it. I'd put it in my front lawn for all to see.

And then get arrested.

The 5-metre span metal bridge disappeared from a river crossing in the Ryazan region, east of Moscow.

They won't get over it.

He's a little late - he should've done that in the early 1990s when you were allowed to cut up entire factories and battleships for scrap metal.

Well, not actually "allowed" per se, but no-one was going to stop you, and it was the quickest way to get rich.
