Bullet Train

Corrected entry: The criminals are carrying ten million dollars on the bullet train. They have placed the case in a luggage rack from where it is taken. The case is about the size of a normal aluminium attaché case. The largest denomination US bill in circulation is the $100 bill. It weighs approximately one gram. Ten million dollars would be 100,000 grams, or just over 220 pounds of $100 bills. Way too much to even fit in the case, and much less weigh as little as the actors make it to be, moving it around the way they do. Gold would be even heavier.

Correction: This would be a factual error if we knew that the case only contained notes and gold. But we don't. We only see notes and gold but that doesn't mean that's all there is. Underneath them could be more valuable but lighter things (gems, bonds, drugs, etc). It doesn't really matter what. We know the contents are worth $10m because that's what we're told. How that value is realised isn't explained.

Good point. I see that now. Thank you.

Factual error: During a fight, a person is thrown against a glass partition window and the glass shatters. Trains use toughened safety glass in their construction and would not shatter like that.
