Script:
A video filmed by @gregrapoutine inside the Louvre Museum on October 19, 2025, shows visitors calmly exiting through the main halls as authorities respond to a confirmed jewelry heist, according to French Culture Minister Rachida Dati. The museum was temporarily closed and evacuated, with no injuries reported.
Despite online claims of “total panic,” the footage reveals an orderly evacuation—an exaggeration the author later admitted after the post went viral. Police have sealed off several areas as investigations continue into the rare security breach at one of the world’s most protected cultural landmarks.
