Would-be bank robbers in Germany miscalculated the amount of explosives needed to open the front door and instead leveled an entire building, Die WeltOnline reports.
The safe and the ATM machine survived intact, however, and the robbers apparently fled without taking any money from the bank branch in Malliss.
Police initially thought one of the robbers might have been buried in the rubble, but search dogs turned up nothing, Die Welt reports.
In addition, police found a stolen delivery van on fire outside the building. They surmise that the thieves brought it along to use to cart off the ATM machine.

This reminds me of the classic line in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" after Butch tried to blow up a safe on a Union Pacific railroad train and blew up the safe, the rail car and all the money..Sundance says to Butch.."use enough dynamite there Butch?"
