Louvre jewel thieves' daring getaway captured on video
The Guardian
|October 24, 2025
The slow-motion getaway of two thieves from the Louvre clutching €88m (£76m) of France's crown jewels was captured on video - the latest dramatic twist to the country's most spectacular burglary in decades.
The 36-second clip, which Le Parisien newspaper said it had verified, shows two men dressed in black, one wearing a yellow hi-vis vest and the other a motorcycle helmet, slowly descending on a furniture lift from the museum's Apollo gallery.
It appears to have been filmed from a nearby window in the museum, looking on to the Quai François Mitterrand where the thieves had earlier parked a stolen truck with a 90ft (27-metre) extendable ladder and basket lift that they used to access the first-floor gallery.
