Riley Poole:
Okay, Ben, pay attention. I've brought you to the Library of Congress. Why? Because it's the biggest library in the world. Over 20 million books. And they're all saying the same exact thing: Listen to Riley. What we have here is an entire layout of the Archives: sort of builder's blueprints. We've got construction manuals, phone lines, water, and sewage. It's all right here. Now, when the Declaration is on display, it is surrounded by guards... and video monitors... and little families from Iowa... and little kids on their eighth-grade field trip. And underneath an inch of bulletproof glass is an army of sensors and heat monitors that will go off if someone gets too close with a high fever. Now, when it's not on display, it is lowered into a four-foot-thick concrete, steel-plated vault that happens to be equipped with an electronic combination lock and biometric access-denial systems.Ben Gates:You know, Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2,000 times to develop the carbonized cotton-thread filament for the incandescent light bulb.Riley Poole:Edison?Ben Gates:And when asked about it, he said "I didn't fail; I found out 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb," but he only needed one way to make it work.Ben Gates:The Preservation Room. Enjoy. Go ahead. Do you know what the preservation room is for?Riley Poole:Delicious jams and jellies?Ben Gates:No, that's where they clean, repair, and maintain all the documents and their storage housings when they are not on display or in the vault. Now, when the case needs work, they take it out of the vault and directly across the hall and into The Preservation Room. The best time for us or Ian to steal it would be during the gala this weekend when the guards are distracted by the VIPs upstairs; but we'll make our way to the Preservation Room, where there is much less security.Riley Poole:Well... uh... Ian... Preservation... the gala... hmm. Well, this might be possible.Ben Gates:It might

Okay Ben pay attention
00:00:03.008 --> 00:00:06.068
I've brought you to the Library of Congress
00:00:06.076 --> 00:00:10.039
Why Because it's the biggest library in the world
00:00:10.047 --> 00:00:12.006
Over 20 million books
00:00:12.068 --> 00:00:15.014

00:00:15.023 --> 00:00:17.006
Listen to Riley
00:00:17.069 --> 00:00:22.004
What we have here my friend is an entire layout of the archives
00:00:22.048 --> 00:00:24.099
Short of builders' blueprints
00:00:25.007 --> 00:00:29.011
You've got construction orders phone lines
00:00:29.099 --> 00:00:32.078

00:00:32.087 --> 00:00:36.054
Now when the Declaration is on display okay
00:00:36.062 --> 00:00:39.067
it is surrounded by guards and video monitors
00:00:39.075 --> 00:00:41.046
and a little family from Iowa
00:00:41.054 --> 00:00:43.067
and little kids on their eighth grade field trip
00:00:43.075 --> 00:00:48.055
And beneath an inch of bulletproof glass is an army of sensors and heat monitors
00:00:48.063 --> 00:00:51.093
that will go off if someone gets too close with a high fever
00:00:52.008 --> 00:00:56.039
Now when it's not on display
00:00:56.047 --> 00:01:03.048
it is lowered into a four foot thick concrete steel plated vault
00:01:04.027 --> 00:01:08.001
that happens to be equipped with an electronic combination lock
00:01:08.999 --> 00:01:10.078
and biometric access denial systems
00:01:10.086 --> 00:01:14.062
You know Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2 000 times
00:01:14.007 --> 00:01:18.066
to develop the carbonized cotton thread filament for the incandescent light bulb
00:01:18.075 --> 00:01:20.012
Edison
00:01:20.999 --> 00:01:22.001
When asked about it he said I didn't fail
00:01:22.038 --> 00:01:25.017
I found out 2 000 ways how not to make a light bulb
00:01:25.025 --> 00:01:28.063
But he only needed to find one way to make it work
00:01:30.001 --> 00:01:33.089
The Preservation Room Enjoy Go ahead
00:01:35.089 --> 00:01:38.001
Do you know what the Preservation Room is for
00:01:38.077 --> 00:01:41.023
Delicious jams and jellies
00:01:41.031 --> 00:01:44.996
No That's where they clean repair and maintain
00:01:44.011 --> 00:01:45.001
all the documents and the storage housings
00:01:45.098 --> 00:01:48.023
when they're not on display or in the vault
00:01:48.999 --> 00:01:51.001
Now when the case needs work they take it out of the vault
00:01:51.999 --> 00:01:52.066
directly across the hall
00:01:52.999 --> 00:01:54.999
and into the Preservation Room
00:01:54.999 --> 00:01:58.005
The best time for us Or Ian To steal it would be during the gala this weekend
00:01:58.058 --> 00:02:01.999
when the guards are distracted by the VIPs upstairs
00:02:01.001 --> 00:02:06.063
But we'll make our way to the Preservation Room where there's much less security
