A television crew recording a documentary about bailiffs were stunned to find £5million stashed in a wooden box hidden in a flat.
$8.5million, the equivalent of about £5million, was found by the crew stuffed in a wooden box hidden in the apartment in Silvertown, east London.

Shit, they found my secret stash of drug money, time to panic
[QUOTE=UntouchedShadow;45085873]Imagine finding such a thing. Wow.[/QUOTE]
Too bad the police have it now
You don't hide $8.5m of foreign currency for no reason
for all we know it was $10 million when they found it
How the hell do you stumble on that? Did it fall off a shelf or something?

News reporter: What title would you like the news article to have?
Tv crew: Hmm... "TV crew find $20mi--- I mean 15---- whoops!!! $8.5million yes, 8.5 million in a london apartment."
Shit, I wonder why they even reported that.
I wonder what happened for them to be hidden in there.
Given it was in London, maybe it was the rent for that month :v:
Someone is reading the news getting real mad they didn't hide their money better.
Nobody would hide money like that unless it was for a reason, nobody will claim the money because it was probably earned through drug trade, i would just have kept it and used it to put gold lining on my everyday life instead of spending it all at once to avoid attention from authorities.

You can't really just pocket that much money easily.

Though if nobody claims it usually the finder/owner of the place gets it back eventually and then it's 100% legit.
At least if the laws in the UK aren't too different from here.

If so, that would be awesome. I hope everyone that was there gets a cut, and it doesn't just go to one person.

Eurgh, might as well be monopoly money then.

ftfy my man
I bet they got a few snapchats of them posing with the money.
This TV crew is substantially luckier than the guy that found 15,000 bees in his boiler.

Knew I had Deja Vu for a reason
I'm a bit surprised that much can be stuffed into a small box like that.

Also, that money in the picture looks a bit weird, like something printed on the bills.

It does look that way, across the bottom of most of the bills there is some word that I can't make out because of the fuzziness of the picture
it almost looks like it says SECURITY
The bills in the bottom are the easiest to read, I'm almost 100% sure the ones in the bottom right corner have SECURITY printed across them
They found Pablo Escobar's coffeetable.
