LadyMoonlight 0 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Was just reading that An 18-karat-gold bathtub worth roughly 120 million yen was stolen early Wednesday morning from a bathing area for men at a hotel in Kamogawa, Chiba Prefecture, police said. Employees of the Kominato Hotel Mikazuki confirmed that the 80-kilogram tub was in place at 2 a.m. in the bathing area on the 10th floor of the hotel, but at 9 a.m. they found that the tub had been removed and the chain on the door to the room had been broken. 120 million yen for a bath!

indosnm 0 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 saw that last night and pissed myself.. Japan's a safety country and they don't need security cameras. Also if that's solid gold it would be worth waaay more now.. Link to post Share on other sites

samurai 0 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 dude, I could totally steal a bathtub if there aren't any cameras. In college, we used to steal couches from the dorms. Not beceause we wanted them, but because we wanted to remove other floor's couches. It turned into a pretty big competition for about a week. We'd steal 'em and put 'em in the parking lot and in people's pick-ups. The security switch on the back doors took tweaking, other phone calls occupying front desk staff, as well as additional security pranks on other doors. Sooo easy. They had to up staff to put a stop to it. Eventually, we had a dorm-meeting, threating those who get caught. The staff even tape-recorded the conversation like it was a hearing in court. We were laughing at that; the validity of the lecture. It's funny because nothing ever got vandalized or went missing. It was purely for sport. Nobody ever got caught either.
