Dramatic footage captures burglars smash open cases to steal jewellery worth up to €1billion from a museum .
The security clip shows the crooks repeatedly batter through the cabinet in The Green Vault in Dresden, east Germany, today.
The raiders, are seen wearing torches on their heads, swinging axes at the glass cases.
Two black-clothed burglars are pictured running into the dark vault and targeting different sections of the secured cabinets.
In one of the world's biggest-ever heists, the hooded thugs also switched off a power supply and sneaked into the building through a tiny hole.
They got away with three sets of 18th-century jewellery and now police believe the raid is linked to a huge coin theft more than two years ago.
