Solving the Italian Job's dilemma

The Royal Society of Chemistry setup a competition to solve the dilemma of the gang in the Italian job ( the original that is ) to get them all out of the bus as it hangs over the cliff and of course recover the gold. The solution is described here .

A better thing to have done would have been to pick a better vehicle to move the gold and to drive more carefully on that twisty mountain road.... but of course that would have made the ending of the film not so interesting.
