The Alcatraz Escape refers to the famous breakout from Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary on June 11, 1962. Three inmates, Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin, devised a plan to escape the maximum-security prison located on Alcatraz Island in San Francisco Bay. They used improvised tools to dig through their cell walls and created a raft from raincoats to navigate the waters. The escape was meticulously planned, but the fate of the inmates remains uncertain. While the authorities believed they drowned in the bay, no bodies were ever found. The incident has since become a part of American folklore, inspiring books and movies about the daring escape.
