    I like to imagine that big atm/bank companies are sitting around a campfire telling horror stories and one of the companies tells this story
  • The man stole 1.6 million dollars from a national bank and got away with it so thoroughly that he practically had to BEG them to press charges against him!
  • @Foxtail190
    This has to be the most beautiful Millionaire story ever. Man figured out a once in a lifetime glitch and still shared it with everyone.
  • @molokoplus0612
    The best part is the speech his boy gave at the NAB staff party they threw. "Thank you NAB, we couldn't have done this without you." Freakin legendary mate!
  • @felizen
    this man LITERALLY found an Infinite Money Glitch and became an Australian MrBeast, absolute madman
  • @timr.2257
    What an honest and selfless guy. Glad he was the one that found the glitch.
  • "If youll buy the beers mate, ill be straight down" is basically the australian motto.
  • This guy is the irl equivalent of those people who just show up in videos games, buys people many gifts, and leave.
  • @massiveidiot77
    My favourite part of this story is how Dan could have easily spent the money on himself without telling anyone else, yet instead abused the bank glitch to grant the dreams of those in need
  • @Jason_Grt
    the fact that this specific youtube video url ends with ATM, all in capital makes me very happy.
  • @ShadedGG
    The fact this is becoming a movie (old title "Cash out" new title "ATM Boy") is the funniest thing I've ever heard. Good luck to the lads who are making it.
  • @donovanjoseph737
    Honestly, I was expecting this story to go down in flames at any moment. Him just accepting that he’ll be caught and turning himself in honestly the last thing I expected from this whole ordeal. Glad to see he’s out of prison and living a normal life
  • @thepunisher6674
    I love how joeseppi will find the most niche story to make a 40 minute video about
  • @williamlloyd3769
    If Dan would have gotten a fake ID and used it to get an NAB bank card he could have used the software error to pull cash out of ATMs for a nonexistent person. In other words he didn’t have an exit strategy.
  • @BirdBraindTV
    That's literally THE GREATEST STORY I'VE EVER HEARD. God that was good. I was literally so excited hearing every little detail to this. If there wasn't a movie being made already, I'd be tempted to make one myself. And to think, he would have gotten away completely if he didn't make those TV interviews...smh. Either way, that story is still AMAZING
  • @joesmo3722
    Leaving ten dollars for someone to find then just laughing at them is probably the most wholesome prank ever
  • @pseudonymity0000
    One thing missing from this video. Apparently, he did talk to a lawyer about what went on after he did not hear anything for a few years. The lawyer even told him that it is very likely that they will not chase it up out of worry of loss of reputation. He basically told him to stay hush and it should blow over. This is a key point because even though he was told by a lawyer that he's a lucky man and his likely gotten away with it, he still felt guilty and turned himself in anyway. Truly wholesome chap.

    There was apparently an ATM glitch like this where I lived when I was little, but the lady who found it was not smart about it at all and decided to withdraw as much as possible and whenever the ATM was restocked. Made it obvious that there was an issue when the machine had to be restocked more often than usual, so caused them to investigate, found who was exploiting the ATM, and they fixed the ATM. It happened on a small island so it wasn't really inconspicuous
