Inspired by last week’s hijacking of the Sirius Star, the largest boat ever stolen. Here is the list of the most expensive things ever physically stolen at one time мебели варнаcarrier to noise ratio(excluding antiquities, fraud, embezzlement, and other things of that nature). Honorable mention goes to the thieves who almost took $200m in diamonds from the Millennium Dome, and the ones who stole 20 Van Goghs ($10m each) from a museum in Amsterdam only to leave them in their getaway car.

    Hey, that’s a pretty cool list! How do you know that there isn’t some large theft that you don’t know about?

    The Unknown
    As we know,
    There are known knowns.
    There are things we know we know.
    We also know
    There are known unknowns.
    That is to say
    We know there are some things
    We do not know.
    But there are also unknown unknowns,
    The ones we don’t know
    We don’t know.
