Albert Spaggiari was a formed French legionnaire and military parachutist; he was also a retired member of an extreme-right terrorist cell who lived a quiet life in Niece, France, and owned a small shop dedicated to photography. He seemed quite an innocuous man to all those who knew him, or perhaps only believed that, for all that time, Monsieur Spaggiari was dedicated to his pet project: organising a huge bank heist with the help of a few colleagues who were as hardcore as he was when it came to covert operations and criminal activities. And after giving much thought and consideration to the issue, they decided to dig a tunnel and reach a local bank's vault, which they entered taking advantage of the recess of various days imposed by the Bastille day celebrations, in 1976. They stayed inside the vault for more than three days and stole an unknown amount of money and valuables, but it is thought that the sum reached various tens of millions of dollars. And before they left, they soldered the vault's door so that the investigators that they knew will appear a few hours after they left would have a harder job to do. But eventually, Spaggiari got arrested after he returned from a trip abroad, and was sent to jail, waiting for his trial to begin. And so did it, but the same day the lawyers and judges in their funny dresses started to argue in court, the defendant jumped from his seat and thorough a second story window. He fell on top of a car, but since he had been a paratrooper, he knew how to withstand such an impact by landing in the proper posture, and nothing happened to him. Immediately after that and before anybody could do anything, Monsieur Spaggiari jumped on a scooter that was nearby and vanished without a trace. Neither him nor the money were ever seen again.
