Now the largest bill in circulation is the 100. The volume of 160,000,000 or whatever it was would be at least 1,600,000 bills and that is if all the bills are hundreds, no 50s, 20s, 10s, 5s, or 1s. Danny has to get back to the room and can't carry the money, the gymast has only one good arm, Pitt is on the floor on the phone, and Sol probably can't carry both bags if they are completely full.
So, how much money do you think they'd have gotten away with?
You are right about Danny and Yen. However, Rusty wasn't on the floor on the phone when they left with the money. He was the lead SWAT team member. Remember, after Benedict tells him to run and hide the camera cuts to a shot of the phone just sitting there followed by shots of empty seats. Danny, Yen, and Linus (sp?) are already in the vault while all the others arrive as SWAT members. Danny went back to the room so that leaves 19 hands to carry bags: 10 people, one of which has an injured arm (Yen).
shareYou are right about Rusty. Even with 19 hands (assuming guys doing the remote on the van are there as well) I do not see them getting away with anywhere near 160,000,000.
shareOh, I completely forgot about the brother (Virgil, if I remember right) controlling the van, which was leaving as the SWAT van arrived. Plus, Reuben was in the car with them. We just lost 4 hands! We're down to 15 now. Looks like we have to apply the "it's just a movie" logic now. :-)
shareIt is assumed that 6 big bags carry 80 millions. Which they SUPPOSINGLY put on the elevator and let the guards took it to the vans.
So there's 12 bags in total. We have 6 pretend as Swatmen, even if Saul can't carry the bags, there's still Linus who can replace Saul.
And Danny has to go back to the beating room.
We saw Reuben in the boxing games and later joined Casey's character (one of the brother) in airport. Reuben got to present at the boxing, as an alibi. He will be one of Benedict main suspects due to his history with Terry.
We have Basher, one of the brothers, Frank, Rusty (he's the lead Swat) and Saul (whom we clearly saw) as the original 6 Swatmen entered the Casino. That's 5. So we have to add Dell as one of the 6 too as we clearly saw 6 Swat Team members when they do the force entry. So what Benedict saw from the monitor, again, is pre-taped. Though Rusty was communicating with him.
They left an obvious tail with Saul. There's one guy calling his name in Terry Benedict's present. He should be able to find out about Saul.
