Can the iPhone 5s finger print scanner be hacked?

This is the question that many security researchers are asking.  A micro capital firm has joined forces with a group of researchers to offer a prize to the first hacker or team that can crack the iPhone 5s finger print scanner.  They are looking for a solution like lifting the fingerprints from a glass.  Brendan Spaar has seen this done in the movies and wonders if it can be done in real life.  The prizes include lots of currency ranging from euros to bitcoins, lots of alcoholic beverages, and even a "dirty sex book." So far the iPhone 5s has been released into the hands of consumers but no one has cracked the fingerprint scanner.  Yet.
