A US man has pleaded guilty to robbing a bank with a fake bomb made out of phone wires, duct tape and a sex toy.
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports that Aaron Stein pleaded guilty on Thursday to charges including robbery, aggravated assault and making bomb threats in the June crime.
A lawyer for the 36-year-old Pittsburgh man said he discovered that $US9000 ($A12,220) he'd invested to cover his approaching honeymoon was gone. The lawyer said desperation drove him to don an Iron Man mask and take a fake bomb to threaten tellers and rob a bank in Crafton bank, just west of Pittsburgh.
Stein's bond was revoked until his May 31 sentencing.
