RCMP: Former Canadian mint worker smuggled out $180K by hiding it up his butt

I nearly spit out my coffee with that image!

Worse still is the fact that I saw the movie it came from (Lavender Hill Mob).

Density of gold: 19.32 g/cm^3
210 g/19.32=10.87 cm^3

10.87 cm^3= 0.66 in^3

about 2/3 of a cubic inch, or 3/4 of a tablespoon.

In the USA we contract this out to mules, rather than using our own asses.

I’m just glad Alec Guinness had a better plan for smuggling gold.
