When i was 15 I was walking a set of abandon train tracks with three friends, these tracks led into another town and live tracks. We came to a line of freight cars and decided to see what was in one. To our surprise (After breaking the federal seal) we found thousands of cases of miller beer. After discussing it we decided to go back to the abandon tracks were we saw a small platform car that we could push, and push we did 
We had to throw the switch to get the car onto the live track, (Keep in mind that these are the old style tracks) we lucked out and pulled up right next to this freight car. 300 cases later we were pushing back, the thing is....the abandoned track had grown over with bush and trees. the small car started to gain speed as we went down a hill.....LOL....we hid behind the mountain of beer as this thing roared through trees and bush.
When it came to a stop, we hid the bounty under a bridge until one of the dudes older bros came with a dump truck.
What a summer that was .....BURP!!
Anyone?

Damn! That's pretty good, Jonny!
My brother-in-law and I were walking around one night, in Japan, and we passed an Asahi beer bottling company's loading area. It was around midnight... They had plastic cases of the BIG beer bottles stacked about fourteen feet high. (I guess they figured that if they were stacked that high, they would be safe.) I scaled the stacks, pushing the toes of my boots into the case handles and climbed all the way to the top. Then I proceeded to drop four big-assed bottles of beer down to my brother-in-law. 
Good times... Good times...
There were others that friends of mine and I pulled off here in the States, but I can't detail them here, for fear of incriminating myself.

Dang it Jonny - you hijacked a train? I love it.... Wish I'd thought about it
All I ever did (of course I had nothing to do with it - some older guys TOLD me about it you understand) was hijack the hub caps off the Chief of Police's car while he was in Sunday night church service. But we were nice and sold them back to him later. (Well he said he had locks on them that "hoodlums" couldn't open! - he admitted they were not buglar proof so we actually did a community service -- at least that's the story I told my Daddy! - He (my dad) couldn't keep a straight face during my recital, so I got off without a butt busting).
But a train??? Gosh I wish I was 18 again .. that would have been a blast.
Hugs BD

when I was 18 I had a station wagon, girlfriend, apartment, kid and my own buisness....two buddies bang on my door at two in the morning..."We hit the mother load"....Im thinking this better be good.
They had broken into a plumbing supply house and needed to move as much brass pipe as they could.... heres where the station wagon comes in
Ok, lets rock!.....We scored 400 lbs of clean pipe and 36 valves, the valves turned out to be the money maker. the pipe we cashed in at a south Boston junkyard, when they asked me who to make the check out to I freaked, uh, uh ,uh....Pete Taylor
When I got to the bank and had no ID as Pete Taylor I had them call the junkyard.....LMMFAO ...(I got balls)
Man, I did some real stupid shit

When I was 19 I went into a supposedly 'haunted' house that was behind a graveyard in my hometown with a friend. The people who owned it showed up when we were in the house (no one lived there of course) called the police and we got busted. Anytime I did *anything* remotely illegal police swoop out of the trees with hand-gliders. 
The weird thing is my friend has since died and he is buried like 100 feet from where that house was (it got condemned and tore down a few years after my fiasco).

Not proud of it though... but...
When we were 17 or so, we'd cruise the city in my car or my friend's. The regular officers on duty at that time of night then, used to follow us whenever they saw our car. I don't know, maybe the billowing smoke coming from the windows or somethiing. 
Anyway, this cop lived about four streets over and bought his son a new mini Yamaha, about 50cc's or something. That day his son was riding up and down the street on his brand new bike as we passed by on the way to the park to "gather" to see other groups of friends and what drugs were for sale.
That night, the new bike was in his garage securely in front of the cars. We went in and lifted it out, carried it over a fence and stole it. Sold it the next day. Kinda felt good about it.

Where do you want me to start?
I started off small.. at the age of about 14 I used to steal my dads shirts and cut the collars off them and use them for nighties.. it was "cool" at sleepovers.. he used to go absolutely apeshit mental about it though.
Then there was the time we stole the HT leads out of my bosses car.. first confession of that one!
While working for the MOD (Ministry of Defence) I managed to liberate an officers pace stick, I had lovely straight shoulders walking out of the barracks that afternoon.. thank heaven for the 80's and shoulder pads is all I can say!
While working for the prison service I hid the accountants calculator on a daily basis, by the time I left he had gone through about fifty and if anyone from that particular prison is reading they are in the archives room!
Liberated a barrel of beer from a hotel but forgot to get a tap as well so that was a bit of a waste of time sadly
Hitched up a caravan with a drunken mate asleep in it one night and left it in the middle of the race course at a weekend meeting and then when he got a little too arsey about it we, the girls sat on him, put an oar through his sleeves and set him adrift on the lake in a rowing boat. He had great perseverance I'll give him that, he was shouting and swearing for HOURS..
Oh and I brought back about a dozen glasses from the bar at the world champs in Gernamy but thats just a perk!
I did have a cop helping me nick them though 
Now what I want to know is where is Hirv? He should be confessing contributing to this thread and I haven't seen him for ages.. come in Hirv, your time is up!

Devout Lutheran family growing up. Pappy used to be real involved in the church. Me too. Whenever he brought the offering plates home, and stuck them under his bed till the bucks were counted, I used to Pilfer my Way thru Purgatory. Great pocket change. I'm sure I'll burn in hell, but I'm not worried.
See the rest of you there,

Are you ready for this one? I'm warning you, it's a badass thing I did....
I was 6, my brother was 8, and all our friends from the little town of Sombra, (think there were 4 others of the same age)...We got together and planned a grand heist.
There was a creek about a mile out in the country, with an old pull ferry. We all set about doing our part, and the plan was that each of us would pack enough food to last us, then we would pull off the heist and rendezvous at the ferry. So we all set out from our various houses, sleeping bags in tow packed full of food, we all knew that once it was done, we could never go back home. We had the barn in our sites with our booty safely inside...
Very quietly we each stalked into the barn, and each of us grabbed an armload of the booty. Then we scattered, as we knew they would have less chance of catching us if we split up. We painstakingly made our way through various routes to the pull ferry. Once we were all gathered there, and we all were safely out of the reach of the law, and our parents, we hopped on the ferry and pulled ourselves over to the other side.
After carefully checking to be sure we weren't followed, we set up camp and got out the food. While we splurged on pilfered snacks and soda, we divied up our loot.
We were quite proud of ourselves that we had successfully pulled off the pink panther of heists, when all of a sudden we heard the sirens. Sure enough, across the creek we could see the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police) with lights going and sirens singing. Not 2 feet behind was a convoy of parental vehicles.
We madly tried to hide all our stuff and camoflauge ourselves. It was no good....they pulled the ferry back across and came over after us. Parents and police all converged on us. The gig was up. All that beautiful precious loot was going to be gone. No matter how much we begged and pleaded and cried, our parents simply refused to let us keep the spoils.
Tired, and dirty from the long adventure, one by one we handed over the loot and crossed back to the waiting vehicles. Each parent in turn handed over our treasure to the police officer. I don't know how but he managed to successfully drive back to the barn and put each and everyone of the 8 kittens back in their rightful place

A couple of generic high school pranks:
A few buds and I once stole the Shoney's Big Boy and put him on top of the portico at the main entrance to our high school. We did it on a Sunday night. Of course it was the main topic of discussion Monday at school. They never did find out who did it.
We had a science teacher in high school name Mrs. Atkinson. Everyone called her Birdlegs cause she had such skinny legs. One weekend we made a giant bird foot and dipping it in paint, we made tracks from her parking place through the front entrance to the school, all the way up to her room on the third floor. (not a heist, but funny NTL)
Both of these were pretty benign. Like Langa, I'd have to be one on one to tell the good ones.
