I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted so much. Maybe it depends on the country. In Australia, nearly all bank branches have the tellers behind either pop up metal screens or bulletproof glass, so it's basically impossible to rob them at gun point. If someone wants cash fast, they have to rob a bottle shop or petrol station to have a chance of getting a cash payout.

This is my point. I didn't realise other countries still had bank robberies. I thought it was a TV trope.
