The Workshop
It was in this corridor that the group of men set up a workshop to create their fake heads. When authorities found the workshop they were dumbfounded by the fact that they were able to keep it a secret.
A Special Raft
In May of 1962, the group had managed to break holes in their cells’ walls that would be just big enough to squeeze their bodies through. They had also successfully created a raft and life vests. The raft truly was a work of art, created by gluing more than 50 raincoats together, it was going to be their only chance of making it out of Alcatraz alive.
