Police just revealed the astonishing way that thieves pulled off the Hatton Garden jewel heist

London's metropolitan police just released this amazing walk-through, showing how robbers broke into Hatton Garden Safe Deposit over the Easter weekend.

Take a look at the step-by-step process the police believe they used:

A gang of up to seven men may have made off with £200 million ($300 million) in gold, jewels and diamonds after the audacious robbery. The Met say they disabled a lift, climbed down the shaft, drilled through the wall and accessed 72 safe deposit boxes.

The police have also shown how they actually got in through the vault wall, using an incredibly powerful drill:
