"You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!"

The bloke that wrote that line only died a few days ago.

Bank robbers used too much dynamite

Two men are killed during an attempt to rob a bank in Belgium. They used too much dynamite and blew himself up.

A robbery attempt against a bank in the small town of Dinant, 100 kilometers from Brussels in Belgium, ended tragically for two men who tried to enrich themselves illegally.

The men would blow a hole in a cash machine, but apparently they used too much dynamite. This meant that they blew themselves to death.

03.20 Saturday after residents nearby had heard a huge bang, which blew a large part of the bank building in pieces.

Quickly took the policemen a perpetrators. He was still alive but died shortly afterwards of his injuries.

Once offenders were found dead Saturday afternoon when fire department had started to tidy up the ruins.

The prosecution says there is found a large quantity of dynamite on the ground. Too much if the robbers would simply open an ATM.

One of the two slain bar identification documents from Kosovo, said police, who also believes that there has been a third of Detonation, but he has slipped away.
