Alcatraz… It's a name everyone knows. The ultimate prison, located on an island where it is impossible to escape ... But was it really impossible?
On June 11, 1962, three Alcatraz inmates managed to get out of the prison.
They left their cell, climbed a 9-meter wall, crossed a terrace. They then descend a pipe 15 meters high. They climb two barbed wire barriers of 4.5 meters. Then, they inflate an improvised inflatable raft and cross the dark, icy waters of San Francisco Bay.
