Alcatraz "escape," 50 years later
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- It was 50 years ago that three men became the only inmates ever to escape from Alcatraz. Or did they? Rebecca Jarvis and Jeff Glor spoke with Jolene Babyak, the daughter of the acting warden at the time, and U.S. Marshal Service Deputy Michael Dyke about the escape and whether the men could still be alive today.
She calls them amateurs! Thats a joke! They may or may not have made it out of the water..but one thing is for sure the planning and execution of the escape shows these guys were pros ;)
So true, they were real pros... Hearing amateurs from her makes me think she's the amateur, hope they survived through this
Frank Morris was the mastermind behind the escape it’s likely they stuck with him had they made it since he had an intellectual IQ
M???????? A??????? Haha...
A IQ OF 133 IS A SMART MAN SO SMART THEY NEVER CAUGHT HIM IN 50 YEARS .
I hope they are alive and never get caught!
Sharon Hopton Why they are dangerous bankrobbers!
XDDX OPKX Not all criminals are bad people, keep that in mind
PROVENx Almond they are, thats is why they are criminals!
Nizma YT You can't even spell your right, so don't waste my time talking to me.
XDDX OPKX your time
This lady seems awfully salty about these "amateur's" getting the best of her father. Her opinion will be biased on the fact of all the rhetoric her father put forth.
Heinz Gerhardt calls them amateurs because they made her pops look a fool yet she has wrote a book an lives of there name #bitter
They definitely were not amateurs, Frank with a very high iq of 133, and the Anglin brothers who were smart in their own right planned it out, every detail. from having thier friend Mr Breezi waiting out in the bay in a boat ready to get them when the ferry they attached the stolen electrical cords slowly took them that way to their waiting friend. And they took 15 months to make sure it was as fool proof as possible. They were smart and took their time at it, didn't rush through it. So it was her father that was the amateur and refused to believe that anyone can escape off his prison island and survive, her father had the inflated ego that was deflated when they escaped and made it.
Ye and they're great at Crafting Items. That's pretty genius
that woman aging backwards already, she is the amateur
@@relaxingmusic-hi8iw yes mate👍it happened on her dads watch,of course she's gonna say they didn't survive. Freedom 🕊 🏊♂️ 🏴
I think you have it well summed up! They definitely couldn't be classified as amateurs. I certainly wouldn't be underestimating them. Morris was clearly very intelligent and organised.
Just because she was there at the time of the escape she thinks that she knows best. trust me Armatures would not of been able to escape the prison the way them 3 did
Kirk I agree with you. I think she's trying to look down on these 3 escapees so it doesn't make her dad look like the idiot. They were smart as hell to get outta there n in my opinion I think they made it looking at the evidence. More evidence says they would be alive than not!! But only 3 people will truly know that,
20BMR Thank you, that is true, the only people who will know if they are alive, is frank Morris and john and Clarence angling them self's, I think that they made it too, that's right she is just trying to make her dad sound cool.
I totally agree. She claims they are "amateurs" but are the only ones to officially escape the rock. Frank Morris had an IQ in the top 2% of the country he thought ahead and this was planned on the night and perfectly set. Just because she woke up to a siren and was told a prisoner escaped doesn't make her a pro at finding criminals.
I know, the amateurs were the prisoners, that tried to escape, but drowned, got shot, or just got recaptured, I think that there was a total of 14 escapes from Alcaraz all together, and only 3 prisoners ever escaped without a trace, and that was Frank Morris and the angling brothers, there was a few prisoners that did escape, at night and wasn't noticed missing until the morning, but the police eventually found there bodies, so surely if the frank morris and the angling brothers did die there bodies would of been found, just like the other prisoners that escaped but was found in the water, that is why I know, they made it, they were all in there 30's when they escaped, it is hard to believe that, they will all be in there 80's now, Frank Morris was about 5 years older than john and Clarence angling though, I hope that all 3 of them are still alive, the thing that annoys me is on that little documentary, Alcatraz escape 50 years later, when the interviewer, askes the martial do you think that they made it, he always says "I think that the brothers might of made it" its obvious that they all made it because I know that there was a rumour saying, that the angling brothers knocked out frank Morris out and put him in the water, and continued the escape alone, if they did do that why was there no body found ? also why would they of killed the man who was the main help ? and there are also other rumours going around, saying that they was probably eaten by sharks, 1st of all a shark would never eat an whole human body, because they don't like the taste of human blood, the only time that a shark would attack a human if they mistake them for a seal, or if they feel threatened, so if they did get eaten by sharks or even attacked by a shark, they obviously wouldn't be able to swim any ware, so if they was attacked they would of just died in the water where they was attacked, but that didn't happen, so they obviously didn't get attacked by sharks, I am not even sure if there was actually sharks in that water, because there was also a rumour that, the warden just used to say that to stop the prisoners from escaping, I personally believe that they escaped, I think that there was maybe outside help, but obviously no 1 will know that, apart from frank Morris and the angling brothers, and the outside help if there was any ? and obviously Allen west would of know, because he was the man who actually planned the escape, but he could not get out of his tunnel in time. I just hope that all 3 of them are still alive.
If a 9yr old can swim to the island and back again, these guys could've done it.
4:56 "they were amateur" would imply even amateur can break Alcatraz.
Calling these three escapees amateurs makes her an amateur...
That movie with Clint Eastwood is the most accurate portrail of the escape. The other movies are just Hollywood. Jolene Babyak is such a great Woman. It was a pleasure to meet her while working there.
Bit stupid to call these 3 amateurs considering they escaped which was meant to be a prison that is impossible to escape from. Pictures, jackets etc scattered around the waters in the area...they obviously knew what they were doing, it took them a year of just pure planning and everything they done sent the government and media and public in directions other than one that would lead to their re-capture.
Every time she said, "they were amateurs" made me want to slap her.
+DSLeicester She is right, they were amateurs from the standpoint of the their criminal sophistication.
glad i'm not the only one who wanted to slap her

Hi, I absolutely agree with you. The guys who were sent to Alcatraz where not amateurs in any way which is why they were sent there to begin with. Also, Frank Morris who is one of the men who escaped is said to have been very smart. The way they planned to escape, the digging through the vents and making of the rafts without getting caught right under the guards noses....sounds like a sharp bunch to me. The prison and the feds just do not want to admit they were out smarted. Guys made it.
I went on a day tour for 5 hours at alcatraz. It was awesome
Soooo she was 15 at the time, living on the prison grounds and this makes her an expert? Oh and "amateurs" who were never caught? gtfoh you smug ol' lady.
"Amateurs"...are they supposed to have some kind of an official PhD in committing crime? This woman clearly doesn't have the required intellect to intelligently comment on this case.
They got on the plane from mod of the dead and left to upgrade
Absolute legends!
The trio, my idols, they are not amateurs they are professionals. ✌😁😁😁😁👍
Considering that they're the only one's to successfully escape from Alcatraz, I don't understand how they could possibly be thought of as amateurs.
Watching something about alcatraz makes me want to play mob of the dead
For reals
Can I add you on Xbox
Same
jonathan monteiro same

I watched this on mythbusters, that Jolene is so convinced they didn't make it, she's so arrogant, there's no conclusive proof that they failed,
ua-cam.com/video/eWt_GC1zFDY/v-deo.html
She’s covering her father’s incompetence. FBI doc’s say they found the raft on another island with footprints leading from the raft, a paddle against a tree, and photographs of them in Brazil.
Well they fooled you and your dad, so if they are "amatuers" what does that say about you? lol
+Gabe Del How did they fool her? She was a child. Her father wasn't warden, that was a mistake on the interviewers part.
+Richard Miller they also fooled the FBI can't you see ?? they left clues that led the FBI to pressume them dead however they all set it up.
stupid lady called them amatuers what a stupid bitch honestly she just cant live with the fact they made it
lol i swam from Alcatraz to the beach in a race when i was 15. they did not die
+Travi5 in what season...
+MIPASSASSIN when the water was 35 degrees
PRO SWIMMER!!! i can't survive that temperature
+Travi5 Got any proof?
Travi5 beside that extreme cold water how did you survived from those great white sharks in the bay aria? the water temperature is not the only problem for swimming only 2km from the prison to the mainland!
Amateurs? What an old bittered bat. They escaped Alcatraz with a spoon mind.
ua-cam.com/video/eWt_GC1zFDY/v-deo.html
Whenever I watch any of these I think about the Mythbusters episode when they tried it. They theorized that they didn't go to where the raft was found on Angel Island, but they went with the tide towards the Marin Headlands. It is possible that after they landed that someone drove them and the raft to Angel Island and put the raft there to throw the searchers off the trail.
Hard to believe it's been 53 years ago since they never found them and everyone never know if they survived or drowned in the ocean.
The three Amigo's, good work boys :-)
"The amateurs,,, That escaped from an army of professionals...
this reminds me of mob of the dead
they all lived and moved south america, that is all im saying. but believe that they are still alive
how do you know
I just finished Babyak's book on the Alcatraz escape, and it's a very readable account of the escape. The comments against Babyak here are very unfair. She does not claim to be an expert because she was the daughter of the acting warden at the time. She did a lot of research and interviews with former employees and inmates to piece together an account of the escape. As much as i would like the escape to have been a success, there are plenty of fair arguments to suggest they didn't make it:
- The were unable to test the raft before it went into the water. The could not know of the seams would hold up. The same with the life vests.
- One of the life vests discovered after the escape had teeth marks on the valve, indicating it could not hold air.
- A bag was found with personal photographs and list of contacts belonging to the Anglins
- The tide was heading towards the pacific ocean at the time they most likely would have had the raft in the waters
- Clarence Anglin and Frank Morris were career criminals. While Morris might have been able to keep his mouth shut about the escape, both the Anglins would likely have bragged about it at some point. All would have had to commit burglary to get clothes and money (and yes, i have read about the reported stolen car on the night of the escape, but the info is still unconfirmed and not proven to be related to the escapees).
- It's been said that statistically, people whose died in the bay at some point float up, but a lot of the people who commited suicide in the bay in the same time period of the escape, simply vanished.
I'm not going to conclude they did not make it, but it's important to be fair. There are arguments both ways.
there is a documentary on the family of the two brothers and they received Christmas cards sent by them from 1962-1964. In the 90's a close friend of the family fave them a photo of the brothers which was taken in 1975 they are alive. They found bones nine months later and asked the family for a DNA sample and when they tested it and it didn't match, as well as the fact that if they were alive today they would be ages 85 and 84 so there's a chance there alive today.
The cards had no postmarks so the date they were written is unknown. The photograph is not conclusive and may not be the brothers. Babyak is actually an excellent historian.
We will never know....bummer
This woman is the only who's giving interview my gosh i heard your story! 1000000 times
😊❤🌍
They made it. Photo of the Anglin brothers from Brazil proves it.
Petronius Arbiter II that photo is not them.
U.S. Marshals Service doesn't believe it's them.
That woman sounds uncertain with her responses. We all know she just wanted to dip her hand in the alcatraz profit. If anything those guys just created some easy cash for her so she could "write" a book. Otherwise no one would pay attention.
My dad is 85 years old he claims he escaped Alcatraz for real lol 😂
If officials stated they could be alive and they did escape not only does it look negatively on their case, time, and money spent looking for them but also gives other prisoners hope and inspiration.
They escaped because if someone can swim all the way and get caught, but they used a raft
So, it's only take an "amateur" to break out on US most tough prison..wow..
Would they still go to prison after 50 years if they are caught?
Yes
If they're still alive, the brothers would have 86-87 and Morris 90 years old, not a lot of people live that old, specially in those eras
The woman is embarrassed these guys escaped on her dads watch.
Run boys Run
Of course they don't talk about the Anglins mother receiving anonymous gifts and cards ,or other evidence found that suggests the three inmates didn't just get into the water and start swimming but that they circled the island around to the dock where they may have hitched a ride behind a prison transport boat that got them close enough to angel island that they could actually cut loose and swim the rest of the way.I heard about this on a tv special about a relative of the Anglin brothers who set out to find proof that they actually did make it,but as I understand it Frank Morris was a loner with no family so they don't know much about him.
The raft escape might of took about 2 to 3 days so the raft may have broken down and they have drowned
Watch mythbusters they escape alcatraz the sane way as frank morris and anglin brothers and they made it with the rain coat raft and all they had to blow air every 15minutes into the raft
High iq and knew the tides. He got out and has never been found. Even back then their bodies would have been found within a week.
funny how in this documentary she says the first thing she remembers is waking up to sirens yet in another documentary it says "she recalls from the morning" her farther getting a phone call and when he left the house the sirens started... `also how can you compare james whitey buldger... how is he more intelligent when he was locked up in the same prison and never escaped... all he really had was money not skill he wasn't camped out in a bush hunting living off survival skills he lived of money probably paid many cops to let him go while on the run to...
Escape Breakout from alcatraz - Greatest prison escape documentary [Breakout prison documentary] 25:00min mentions her fathers phone call
Hope there alive and be found ! If found hope they leave them alone and no charges , after all the didn't kill anybody !
Is there such a thing as a PROFESSIONAL prison escapee? These guys BEAT the “professionals”... That qualifies them as, as good or better !!
This woman tries to sound fancy and sophisticated, but ends up sounding very silly and close minded.
If they are amateurs or dead then why are you still looking for them 50+ years on?
Amateurs lol, well they escaped and were never found, prety good for amateurs
They were never going to see their families again anyways if they stayed at Alcatraz so what did they have to lose. Most if not all amateurs would not have had their guts or cool to pull it off. This woman is full of it!
They should put three fake bodies in the water see if they get washed up....or get a young man in the water and see if he can make it...just have support people to help......just thinking
One day I got a strange letter that said I escaped from Alcatraz but I don't know if it's true
im so happy for them thanks God!!!🌹😍
Why not be happy for them, they were just thieves anyway, it's not like they were murderers
She's pretty much just repeating what her dad has said through the years. They're amateurs their amateurs their amateurs. But wasn't The Rock designed for professional escape comics that couldn't be held in other prisons along with serious violent prisoners. Suggest that little bit she said there doesn't hold water no pun intended.
When you escape from an escape proof prison, means you succeed where everyone failed, we call you specialist not amateurs.
There was a report of 3 men stealing a van tho
why doesnt anybody interview the families of the 3 men. the last documentary i watched the family still receive letters from them.
they were not the types to find a job, and reamin under the radar, but that was BEFORE they entered Alcatraz, remember every life experience changes us, and bieng prisoner of Alcratraz and having escaped must be one life changing experience for them
They went to Brazil with the help of Fred Brizzi . For living on Alcatraz with woman knows nothing, why did she write a book??????
they didnt swim amywhere the raft was diversion the anglins friend fred bizzi he had two guys in a boat waiting cuz they all three figured out the boat schedule n the last time the boat would leave the prison till morning so they used a roap n tied it to the bottom of the boat n they got tugged to where the pick up was n the boat took them to angel island n they left the raft there n stole a car n then they took a private plane by fred bizzi to brazil n they have been there ever since
Chaise Samargis wtf?
Chaise Samargis no
how do u explain about the private plane?
Aaa you where there..... what part did you help in...
Only one of them would know this. Are you Morris? The FBI will be at your door shortly. Actually, they may not want to come considering they're not getting paid
Bobby Kennedy new at least one got away.the one that called the media the gov.refused to admit it was a success
We will never know.... bummer
If they made it, and are still living, they would be in their 90's. It is hard to say if they did. I don't think that they will ever know.
I know no one will believe me but my grandfather is frank and he's alive. They have the whole escape wrong . They had an awaiting boat and left on the boat that came to deliver inmates . I'm not snitching on my gramps it's just that he's to smart for all of u
3:13 - :15 What about Morris' 133 I.Q.?
ua-cam.com/video/eWt_GC1zFDY/v-deo.html
i escaped from alcatraz in gta xd
Which gta was that?
OrbitWide GTA SAN ANDREAS MP :D
Its mod on server
i think they made it and started their life from scratch, no bodies were ever found, and they wouldn't still be searching if they had died.
it was actually 38 years ago
I think that the only way we would know for 100% certainty that they are alive , a pardoned would have to be issued. They would be in their mid 80s now.
Who is this woman?
And you say this with a straight face!
...they still alive!
Frank Morris and the Anglin Brothers greatest fucking Escape ever our best fucking trick ever played
She is still so bitter, amateurs i think not.
Calls them amateurs. But yourself and the cops can’t find them?🤔
Clarence and john are in Brazil
I think they died. theres no way at least one of them weren't caught. I think they didn't make it to shore that's why their life jackets were all found scattered near sf bay.
So if their life jackets were scattered around the bay were are the bodies? why would they throw their life jackets if they drowned? that doesn't make any sense
Do you guys not see what frank morris did he put his live jackets on the bay to make the fbi think there dead but they made it as frank morris with 133iq
+Shawn Mahoney Where's the bodies then? If they died there would be a body, there was no bodies. they found a raft on Angel Island, footsteps and there's documented evidence of a stolen car by 3 men, never a body, the Early 60s was a different time. It was much easier to escape then than it is now. But that's your opinion but i would suggest doing your research when you go about making them.
They had to of gone to south America and ya they had no family or money but if that is then how come they were never found in the US its possible by the time they found out they were missing they had a 9 hour head start it takes almost about 10 or 12 hours from San Francisco to the border so by the time they were able to report the escape they had about maybe 2 hours to get to the boarder if they were in LA but with the time they left and the time it took for them to get across to land it's hard to say if they got to the border without getting caught or maybe the just grabbed a bout when they got across and went to Canada or something idk but it's possible they made it out alive
M3RKiN LAP00N there wen by plane or boat.... be two many cops looking for them....and you cant go those the border.. they would be so hot....i think they where long gone... befor morning.... hid in mexco ... then go south by plane....you would have to get a way as fast and far away like right now......and theres lots of people in jail to help them.... they would love to help....
The myth busters proved that it could have been successful
So this women still hasn't grown up after all these years
If they were smart enough to escape the most secure prison in the world, i think they would be smart enough to swim to the shore ffs.
I believe them to be alive up to 2016.
🌍.
I was looking at a video and the person said that he seen a boat that was close but was off of the shore and was turned off then he seen the lights turned on and the boat started up and left the island
They went to Mexico and got a job on a pot farm and lived happily ever after !! Thank you guards on duty lol
I WANT TO SEE HER ESCAPE. she doesn't even get out off her cell
Based on how old they were at the time I bet if they made it out alive they're probably dead now from natural health problems that usually occur later on in life.
The U.S marshall has got to give it up. Even if they are hiding, it's already time to pardon them. Alcatraz was a dirty institution anyway.
If they died, they died free.
Did the other 10 people get kicked out of Heaven like Satan did in the same time when 3 of them got caught and got arrested again? True or False
They probably used the tide as their advantage Frank Morris was a escape artist he probably knew what he was doing.
She means her dad the warden was an amateur.
This is a serious question, what if they are still alive ? Should the Police arrest them once again ?
yap
the guys are at the Most wanted FBI list of northern california till they are 100years
Quiik Siilver How about...
Never.
Though the FBI and the US Marshals are (somewhat) still searching them, they should just give it up.
This was 50+ years ago.
It's about time to just cut it loose.
Just saying... 👌🇺🇸👍😂🚨😉😯😪
yes they going back to jail cuz still have to pay for what they did
Christian Rowbotham They all are fucking dead by now. Morris will be 91 by today. He may have died long time ago...
They definitely made it and lived.
I can escape any kind of prison because I can fly like a bird LOL LOL
Amateurs?...Because they escaped from your dad`s prison?
3 words, give it up. Goin on 53 years they would be dead if they made it alive. They're never gonna find out if they made it.
They wouldn't necessarily be dead they could easily still be alive
Give it up already.
No matter what ... maximum of people strongly believe that they managed to escape successfully that day... I'm one of them.... But to maintain the pride many (armature 😂) cover up by saying they've drowned
They didn't nessecarily repeat offend maybe they worked menial jobs and maintained a low profile like Richard Kimball
Sorry but what is this Mod of the Dead some speak of?
That lady it's stupid they escape from a supposed top secure prison I don't think they amateurs @all
