Bank Notes is a collection of various actual demand notes handed over by successful and unsuccessful bank robbers. Each posted note is accompanied by data related to that robbery such as gender, age, bank and location, and the amount stolen or requested, as well as the grainy security camera photograph of the suspect. Based on the notes, verbose these robbers are not and will most likely never be adapted into a movie featuring two bold and charming cons running around on horseback and jumping into rivers to escape lawmen.

Speaking of robberies, nothing beats the weirdness of the failed coerced bank robbery attempt by pizza delivery Brian Wells that reads like something between SAW and a DIE HARD plot. Apprehended by police after attempting to rob a bank, he claimed that the collar fastened around his neck was a time bomb placed there against his will by unnamed people who forced him to rob a bank. Three minutes before the bomb squad (belatedly) arrived, the bomb exploded killing Wells. Read the rest about this convuluted story here.
