LONDON - Some of the Britain's brightest minds have resolved one of the country's biggest cinematic cliffhangers: How the robbers could have got away with the gold at the end of The Italian Job.

The 1969 heist film ends with the robbers' gold-laden bus teetering over the edge of an Alpine road, with their loot - and their lives - in doubt.

On Friday the Royal Society of Chemistry offered fans a little closure, announcing the winner of a competition to find a scientific solution to their predicament.

That's great. make perfect sence. They should hire George Lucas to ruin the movie by going back in and extending that scene with 3D animated characters.

Then he can pick up the toy market for Italian Job action figures and die cast cars. That would rock!!
