If you robbed a bank what would you disguise yourself as?

From http://news.sky.com/skyne...html?f=rss

Police Not Stumped By 'Tree' Robber
Updated: 12:37, Monday July 09, 2007
Police in America have arrested a man who robbed a bank 'disguised' as a tree.
CCTV footage shows the man entering the bank with branches and leaves taped to his body.

Was raider barking mad?
After patiently waiting in the queue with fellow customers, the man makes his move, ordering the bank cashier to fill a bag full of cash, Fox News reported.
Unfortunately for the suspect, a dye pack inside the bag exploded.
And in a second stroke of bad luck, the man's face could be clearly seen by the CCTV camera through his foliage.
He was later arrested at his home in Manchester, New Hampshire.
It is just the latest in a run of odd attempts by robbers trying to get their hands on some extra cash.

Earlier this year, two teenage girls robbed a bank in Georgia, USA, and their only disguise was their sunglasses. The so-called Barbie Bandits were soon caught.
Last summer in Dorset, a pair of bungling robbers who targeted a pub for its takings were caught after dressing up in heavy puffa jackets, parkas and hats - on the hottest day of the year.
In April this year, a man who tried to steal an entire cash machine in California was captured after his prosthetic let fell off during his getaway attempt.
And in Italy in 2006, a pair dubbed "Bonnie and Clyde" robbed people by kissing passionately in a park and then jumping out to attack distracted passers-by.
It's a mess, ain't it, sheriff?
If it ain't, it'll do till the mess gets here

I saw Eddie Murphy dress up as a white man and travel around New York back in the early 80's on Saturday Night Live.

I think it would be a perfect disguise to rob a bank, kill someone in public, slap the shit out of someone you really hate on the street, mug an old lady with her Social Security check. You know, and I'm really fast so catching me would be out of the question.
