A Brazen Theft: The Irish Crown Jewels
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 พ.ค. 2024
- On July 8, 1907 one of the most shocking and brazen crimes in history was discovered. The Manchester Evening news reported, incredulously: "On the eve of the departure of the King and Queen on a state visit to Ireland comes the startling news that the Jewels of the Order of St Patrick, valued at 50,000 pounds, have been stolen.”

I'm surprised that The History Guy didn't mention the possibility of pirates being involved. Don't all good stories include pirates? LOL
Well, a newspaper did speculate that it was done by Americans bent on “plunder.”
Good point but any damn fool knows it was the Templars. For certain.

Well, don't look at me....I didn't take 'em !🤑
I am 70 years old and live in the UK and this is the first I have known of this, so it just goes to show that by watching your excellent videos, anybody can learn something new.
My mind reels at the brilliance of building a strong room without first making sure that the safe could be put in the room.
I know!
The strongest room is one that no one and nothing can get in or out of!
This sounds like a Bob Newhart telephone skit: "The jewels are in the most heavily-guarded area, right near police headquarters....They were stolen...You built a new strong room for the safe where the jewels were stored...The safe wouldn't fit through the door...did you try knocking the wall down? Oh, that's why they call it a strong room...Where is the safe? It's in the library...These are the people entrusted with the security of the country's most treasured possessions..."
I have not dealt with any UK government contracts but I have seen enough US Military contracts for capital equipment. The company I worked for had approved contract drawings showing our equipment requiring a 220 3 Phase Wye electrical service. As the facility was being finished they determined the electrical service was a Delta. The approval drawing was signed by a PE whose license was as an electrical engineer. That project had other problems. A 20,000lb capacity forklift the had a weight of 20,000 lbs.
Remember it’s Government Money not real money.
Not the first time this has happened.
I have to admit stolen art mysteries is one my favorite history subjects
While Arthur and his men were searching the countryside for the missing crown jewels, they came across a castle full of French-accented soldiers, who claimed that "they already have some!"
Ah monty pyton!
Reckon the the Vikings had removed such treasures centuries before!! Just another political religious excuse to maintain control unfortunately them days.
Any wonder for a small Island they are known and celebrated all over the world.
On 17th March for a Welch man, shepard that moved to France then brought catholisism back to Ireland ,drank Potíeen climbed a mountain barefoot and claimed to have found God.Some story !
The rest of the country whist toiling an rolling around in the mud needed such intervention an thus embraced it !
...Then came the age of multi countries politicians to dilute it further !

What a theft. The absolute nerve needed to pull that off.
Maybe you mean, what theft?
Professor Moriarty? LoL
@@greggweber9967 Sir Peter Blood
Definitely an inside job. Too clean, perfect media stories. Sway back and forth on who’s to blame, then poof 💨, something shiny. What jewels. 😆
Aren’t those the crown jewels?
No, it’s me lucky charms !
Seems most likely that the jewels were never returned to the safe after that last use because between that point and the finding that they were missing, the safe was never inspected.
First place I'd check would be the British Museum .
And they have lost quite a few items, too! 😅
Dead on!
Why is the Pink Panther Theme playing in my head?

Because that's kiiiinda what this was like.
A good cup of coffee, a cigarette, and THG. 😎
Right there with ya....cough!
An Irish coffee!
Jewels regularly pawned by a senior official sounds the most likely. I can picture the person short of money and pawning them, each time recovering them but that one time they just can’t get the money together. A pawnbroker who took them wouldn’t want to shout about it so breaks them up, melts the metal and no one ever sees the whole pieces again.
Fascinating, thank you for another great episode!
Sounds like a good maguffin for a spin-off National Treasure movie!
Dublin Castle is still used as Irish Government offices. Area open to the public. Last there around 30 years ago.
Rather amusing how pointless the strong room ended up being.
I think you should have mentioned the "Shackleton Injunction" that prevented the mention of their name being used in any publication, or report, discussing this particular theft.
Reporting restrictions were only lifted fairly recently !
It was a pleasent suprise to here the local paper reffered to here, the Stoke Sentinel which is still in print today .
I bet ya the guy chuckled at that motto as he was crudely prying out all those jewels
We think alike!
LOVE the green bow tie!!!

I remember a mate being questioned in court back in the early seventies. He was asked by the judge whether he was, "in fact, a practising homosexual?"
He answered, "Very practiced, your honour!"
AS ALWAYS, MR. LANCE, ANOTHER EXCELLENT VIDEO!!😊😊😊😊
I wonder if The Doctor was involved.
Interesting, thank you!
Such things never truly disappear nor is there any chance they get broken up. Those jewels are safely put away on some country estate.
I agree. They are worth fat more as Crown Jewels than as simply “jewels”.
For one thing, as long as they are “alive”, they can be held hostage.
Strong language with, "no chance", but I get your point. Even if they were taken by one of the insiders, they may have panicked and decided money was more important than honour/principle. Maybe a 5% chance they were broken up for money and also destroy evidence. 95% chance they are hidden somewhere.
Nah. While more valuable assembled, they could never be sold. the individual gems could easily though. It is doubtless it was broken up and sold off. No matter how valuable something could be, if you can't sell it, it has no real value.
Thank you History Guy
Our upper classes are always banging on about how tasteful they are, then you get to see all the tom foolery, pour diamonds on it!

I wonder was it an inside job . NO ,a loyal British citizen would NEVER steal irish gold . Would they ?
Today would have been Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's 165th birthday. Sherlock Holmes was in retirement in 1907, keeping bees on the Sussex downs; he handled The Adventure of the Lion's Mane that year, which didn't require him to travel. If he was asked to help investigate the case of the Irish crown jewels, he must have turned down the request, or was unsuccessful, and Dr. Watson regarded it as prudent not to mention the great detective's involvement.
Good Wednesday morning History Guy and everyone watching...Class is back in session...@Lance, what's the black spot on your upper right lip??
Hmm? A bit of distraction for a moment. Evidence of a too close shave?🤔
Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that! You can't 'unsee' such things....
History booger
I wondered that too! Looks like dried blood from a shaving nick.
The story behind the safe and the strong room doesn't surprise me one little bit. In the mid 1990s, I spent some time working on a project at a European bank in Tokyo. The bank, regulated by the Ministry of Finance (the MOF), was required to compile and store various hard-copy regulatory reports for a set period of time, newer reports replacing older ones as time went on. The requirements specified that the reports had to be kept in a fireproof, lockable safe in a room away from normal operations. The problem was, that as time went on, the physical size of the reports got bigger and bigger, but the safe wasn't expandable, and so, in order to satisfy the requirements, the staff at the bank pushed and shoved the reports into the fireproof, lockable safe, but just left the door ajar because they couldn't close it owing to the reports spilling out.
Well well well what a big deal all of that must have been and i guess still is....Thank THG🎀
Wild Flowers, Tales so fitting!!
Love today's themed bow tie.
The little people no doubt.
I believe the pronunciation of “O’Mahoney” is actually more like “O’Manny.”
Good morning! 👋🏽😊
What’s that black spot above your lip?
I was wondering too. It wasn't on his ending video. I felt like Austin Powers saying "mole"...
I thought it was a "play button" but when I clicked, it only halted the video.
"We all see it .... we ALL see it ..."
What hump- err, black spot?
The British Crown had a lot of enemies in Ireland in 1907. The Irish rebels, later known as the IRA, had infiltrated the police and all departments of government in Ireland. It thus would not have been all that difficult for the Irish nationalist underground to have made use of a civil servant or police officer who was secretly, and unknown to his superiors in the British-led government of Ireland a nationalist agent to have stolen the jewels, and used them to finance revolutionary activites.
I hope the jewels are still intact, more exciting to think of them somewhere on a beautiful woman. Thanks
Again, a highly interesting event previously unknown to me. Real history as good as any novel. Now that Ireland is independent, could these jewels appear again... perhaps as silently and mysteriously as they disappeared? Now there is a fun concept for a novel. Thanks again, THG.
Love the green bowtie homage!
It was not a "State" Visit. Back then, as you said, all of the island of Ireland was part of the United Kingdom. It was no more a State Visit than it would have been if Edward VII travelled from London to Scotland or Wales.
Someone’s gambling debt.

Hey History Guy! I asked some time ago, but I would be interested to see a video about the only US Vice President to write the music for a #1 Billboard song.
? I’m interested
Charles Dawes. But it is not so simple as that, the hit was a cover almost fifty years later.
Now who is the only US President to hit a hole-in-one? It was not Ike.
Thank you for the lesson.
My precious.
It would be nice to have a panel to discussion. On what could have to have improve and PREPARE, for the D-day landing. Stupidity took a lot of life. Passing the buck and getting the men not getting ready.
I want one of those hats they're wearing!
Were those jewels pink hearts, yellow moons, green clovers, blue diamonds, and purple horseshoes? I think I have a suspect.
th-cam.com/video/El4tHP5HdPA/w-d-xo.html
1971 ??... You should have Orange Stars, but not yet Purple Horseshoes.
@KomradeMikhail here in 'merica we get what WE want, not what the party gives us!
There were actually green clovers. The diamonds were white, not blue. And yes, quite possibly they were taken simply because they represented a pot of gold for the thief.
So that's what bought all the arms for The Easter Uprising!
Interesting
It would take nerves of Irish steel to pull this heist off
I wonder if this wasn't a contributing factor in the subsequent hostilities between these island nations?!
Maybe they were drunk
Hmmmm! Black Thorne perhaps? Don't rule out The Illuminate!😮
It was possibly the same group that about 100 years later nicked the Portuguese Crown Jewels from a museum in The Hague, as they'd arrived there on loan. 😆
My great uncle was a very naughty boy, about that time. His first hiest? An entire lighter(unpowered barge) full of tea. He needed the money because Great Aunt had cervical cancer, and required a very expensive operation. After that, he was the guy who invented the classic "car ringing" gang. I miss the crazy old sod.
There had to be privateers involved somewhere in all this.
I just saw thevtitleband thought I never knew someone tried to steal Ireland's potatoes. 😳
Summer of 1907 also marked a turning point in the shipping world 🌎🌍, Lusitania was about to make her maiden voyage and her sister ship ⚓🚢 Mauritania would follow after and the idea 💡 for the Olympic class of ships was proposed by Bruce Ismay and William Pierre ( who was a viceroce for Ireland)! 16:09
Things that make you say whom.
Sometimes, crime actually does pay.
I'd be interested in the financial situations of everyone involved leading up to and well after the theft. Even if the primary motive had been political, no one would have just chucked them into the sea, considering their emense monetary value. Surely, they would have been broken up and fenced off piecemeal over time.
It were the one armed midget.
That is the primary reason that Shackleton was suspected. He was a man frequently in need of money.
Very fishy! Someone in the know was behind the theft.
Has this happened in the time of Cromwell, it might have been one of my Bryan(t) ancestors when Cromwell banished them to the Colonies...but the jewels existed for 250 years after his banishment.
I told Ya - don't kiss the cat !
You don't want to know where that tongue has been!!
Eeeww!!!
What year did the snakes 🐍 come up missing?
What other things were lost and never recovered?
Irish I knew
There is a private museum in Boston (I think) that had a robbery in the 80's or 90's, and those items have never been recovered. Someone can help me with the details

The story in Dublin is that the jewels were buried in the Dublin/Wicklow mountains with the intention of being recovered. And that they were stolen by Republicans. My guess is they were broken up (easier to transport), or if they were hidden they were buried somewhere like Phoenix park, where they could be watched without raising suspicion (and if recovered by police the presence of the viceroy's residence and several army barracks would make it extremely embarrassing.)

History guy,theres only one explanation that makes common sense.A police officer that had acess stole them,for someone else,and had a nice payday.
Pirates?
One thing is certain, no part if them came my way.
Ireland is cool.
How could it ever be reasonable to leave the crown jewels 'outside' of a strongroom? Whoever okayed that phenomenally stupid idea should've been fired for such an asinine concept. The door of the strongroom is too 'small'? Hire a carpenter to create a set of secure doors, frikin' genius! Protected by a single lock and key, that reflects contemptuous disregard. Only someone with intimate knowledge of where the jewels were kept could've performed the crime, given the lack of evidence.
Yes, the story is a study in complacency and poor decision making.
@TheHistoryGuyChannel Agreed, sir. Yet being partly descendant of the Irish and a vet, I've a bit of baggage with the 'Limeys'.
No burglers, no teefs. It was an inside job. I find it strange that if they couldn't publicly prosecute and secure them.... they had no power to privately/discreetly secure their return? Take 3 of the biggest suspects into a basement and go to work with pliers and a blow torch. Gentlemen didn't do that sort of thing?
