This is the moment robbers armed with machetes stormed a jewellers to steal £106,000 of stones and watches while disguised as Muslim women in burkas.
The gang of ten men who carried out a series of terrifying armed raids across the north-west have been jailed for a total of 230 years.
The career-criminals went on a 12-month spree between June 2015 and June 2016 carrying out at least 10 raids across Greater Manchester.
They used disguises to steal some £206,000 worth of gems and jewellery and stole £76,000 from an Aldi supermarket, where they attacked a shopper with a machete as he tried to stop them.
Armed with sledgehammers and machetes, the gang wore burkas to get into a jewellers in Manchester and steal more than £100,000 worth of gems.
Astonishing CCTV footage shows the pair walking towards Punjab jewellers in Wilmslow Road.
They are followed a few seconds later by an innocent member of the public and then two hooded accomplices a few yards behind them.
Once outside the business the men dressed in burka conned the owners into letting them in.
After getting into a lobby area the burka-clad robbers force up security shutters to allow their accomplices in and they get into the shop.
The video shows they are armed with machetes and an axe. They then calmly fill bags with top quality Asian gold including bracelets and necklaces.
The same method was used during a raid at an Aldi supermarket in Bolton which netted the gang £76,000.
In the Aldi raid in Bolton on June 29, 2015, shopper Mark Cooper tripped one of the gang as he ran off wearing a burka.
But two other robbers ran up and one used a machete to slash Mr Cooper across the shin, leaving a deep wound.
A judge ordered Mr Cooper should receive a reward for his efforts in trying to stop the raiders.
Gang leaders Christopher Ryder, 30, from Timperley and Michael Gabriel, 30, from Wythenshawe were jailed for 22 years and 21 years respectively.
The gang stole £106,000 worth of jewellery from Punjab Jewellers in Wilmslow Road, Rusholme on December 9th 2015.
They were foiled by Operation Bonaparte and Operation Toledo in which Greater Manchester Police's Serious and Organised Crime Team intercepted them.
Some were caught as they were about to carry out another robbery when police stopped a Land Rover in Platt Lane last June.
Others were arrested as they drove from a robbery in Heaton Moor and switched cars in Oak Road, Hale.
