LUFTHANSA HEIST Ep. 3 | “The Heist”

In the early morning hours of December 11, 1978, six masked men carry out a masterful robbery of the High Value Room at the Lufthansa cargo building at JFK Airport. The robbers are from Jimmy Burke’s crew, and the heist is even bigger than they expected. They walk out with more than five million dollars in cash and jewels, and earn a place in the record books.
