In Ocean’s Eleven, the gang uses a device known as “The Pinch” to create an electromagnetic shock to create a blackout in Las Vegas. Although devices such as “The Pinch” exist, they can only be found in highly-protected labs and are as big as entire buildings.

They can’t fit in a van like in the movie. It has been explained that the only thing that would sound out an electromagnetic pulse big enough to cause a full-scale blackout in Las Vegas would be an atomic bomb. So, no matter how fool-proof the group’s plan may seem, there are some definite plot holes.
