I volunteered in prisons for nearly 20 years. These supermax prisons do not make the public safer. With no programs and no human interaction these inmates literally go insane and there. Most inmates eventually get out of prison. People don't realize this that very few people die in prison. I would rather have inmates that have gone to prisons that are run like a small city where they have opportunities to learn skills and take college classes and other programs so that when they do get out they are safer on the street and less likely to be repeat offenders.
Prisoners in Supermax prisons usually have life or very long sentences. They are a danger to staff, other prisoners, and themselves. You don't get put in a Supermax for being a model inmate. Those prisoners all committed acts of violence once they got to prison.
@@PunkSlapper123exactly. The only reason these types of prisons exist is for those who have commited so many infractions that they cant be trusted in a general population prison
@@PunkSlapper123 The US only has one Supermax. What's crazy is it was create specifically because of one guy who killed guards. Your right though, that place is for terrorist and mass murderers. Its only the worst prisoners from maximum Security prisons that end up in the Supermax. When your all ready doing life they cant punish prisoners with more time. So solitary confinement is the only was to deter prisoners from murders guards or other prisoners. I think its ridiculous that ppl actually care about the wellbeing of someone who wouldn't think twice about causing them harm. These ppl are vicious animals.
Maximum Security isn't the same as a Supermax. There's only one supermax. Prisoners arn't just put in solitary for no reason. They did something to get put there as punishment.

Prisons always have a possible means of escape. It could be from help from a guard, a helicopter, sneaking out the front door in disguise, taking hostages, hiding inside a vehicle/trash truck, etc. The only exception in places that allow no visitors, no outside rec, and 24/7 surveillance on each prisoner at every moment, such as Colorado Super Max or Guantanamo Bay., but those rare types are the only outliers.

What are the worst to maximum security prisons has to be H unit at the Oklahoma State penitentiary it is built underground it also houses the death row unit
A guy that was in a federal usp (prison) said that the bars in that prison allegedly have smaller solid loose fitting bars (or solid pipes/coduits) inside the outer hollow bar. So if u do manage to cut threw the outter bar with a saw blade, once the saw blade teeth bite into the inner bar, it will just spin back and forth with the blade and it cant be cut unless u somehow u stop it from moving.
Once you cut the outer bar can't you just hold the inside bar while cutting it? I'm not sure if I got what you were saying but from what I thought you said if correct, couldn't you do that?
@@BriannaLKay u got it, thats kinda the point & design. Their is no way to stop it from moving with just one saw blade hole. I'm sure it can be defeated somehow. But it's an added layer of "pain in the ass" if u only have one cutting tool. I know guys can sometimes defeat the the tamper resistant tourqe screws, by melting a toothpaste cap, pushing it in the screws head and letting it cool. It evidently will take the correct shape and can be strong enough to then remove some screws when it's done correctly. When u got thousands of men & women, with 24 hours a day and multi year scentences just trying random stuff, sooner or later, something will work. It's kinda like having the biggest & cheapest Research & Development team in the entire world. 🤣
Saw a movie in which vicious criminals weren't incarcerated for years, but rather were instantly aged to old people and then released, having lost decades of their lives.
Altered Carbon had a similar concept, although they were put in a comatose state for their sentence, rather than it happening instantly. Neat idea to think about, but in practice it would provide zero rehabilitation and lead to incredibly high recidivism rates
As a Mechanical Engineer specializing in building mechanical systems...I was hired a few years ago to design plumbing for an expansion to a Federal Maximum Security Prison in my Canadian Province...it took a couple week's of extra work, to adapt to Federal Prison requirements...oh well, I can now list it as an area that I have experience in...a detail the Fed's consider when hiring for future construction/renovation projects - it's not a common 'area of expertise'. It's secured a few new contracts - so it's something that I've never regretted - that extra work I dealt with...
Prison napalm is more dangerous than a phone or drugs... Sugar and water heated to boiling. It becomes sticky and is so hot, it causes the akin to become so soft, it comes off with it
Security screws/ Safety screws (tamper resistant fasteners) have been removed by heating up plastic pen caps, sticking it in the screw and allowing the melted plastic to take to the mold.
These barbed wires remind me of France I got stuck in the barbed wire a long time ago in Sangat, I tried to catch the train but I couldn't because it was moving so fast and the guards noticed me, I lost the exit hole. lucky to escape the barbed wire with little damage to the arms and legs😫

Prisoners in the Nordics have lost their freedom. Accommodation is of an acceptable standard to Norwegians, hardly “posh”. In a hotel, guests may come and go as they please, not so in prison. Unlike in the US, Norwegian prisons are effective.
They should build prisons deep into the ground, the lowest cells where the toilets from the upper blocks empty into and is super humid and dark and dingy thats where the child killer/rapist's live , floor above killer rapists of women and it goes from the worst to not so bad at the top , the lower you go the conditions get progressively worse including food served at the bottom its just the scraps left from the upper floors , no floor has acess to any other floor other than one lift ...

Exactly. If we keep them in fear we can ensure they'll come back. The moment you show prisoners any humanity, or give them skills to be productive members of society, they'll leave the prison and never come back. Keep them in fear; keep our private prisons profitable The US didn't get the largest prison population in the world by chance.

The Razor wire. Here is exactly why it works. It must be set and clipped in a certain looseness. It looks to be very stable. One foot touching any of the wire, attracts all of the other wire around it, venus fly trap style. One of my Sergeants, Scott Grundeis, had to extract and escapee, who had tried to step into the three loops of razor wire, at the top of a twelve foot fence. He had made his way to the top, and there, decided, he could jump, up and over the top loop, land on the other two and spring off of those strands, assisting his forward momentum, he would somehow make it over the outer fence? The inmate told me this as we rode to the hospital in the ambulance. His right foot was dangling from his ankle bones. Nothing Personal Strictly Business Just sayin’ Captain Eldredge
The federal prison system has been privatized and is now a profit motive corporation with the introduction of mandatory sentences. I heard that housing these criminals is costing the federal government some 300 billion dollars per year which is more expensive than the Iraq war at 130 billion. So, 300 billion is nearly a billion dollars a day. We can't afford to continually provide free room and board and showers and 3 meals a day plus weight training to repeat offenders of serious crimes. I do not know what these counties and states pay but I'm a sure it is some 30,000 per year per inmate. So, we are paying 30,000 per year to feed and house criminals compared to social security payments which are 12,000 for the retired and disabled. So, these prison corporations are making huge profits at 30,000 per prisoner. We cannot afford 1.5 trillion dollars every 5 years or 3 trillion dollars per decade, all tax based just to keep dangerous repeat anti social law breakers off the street. So, we are going to have to examine this criminal justice system very closely and make hard decisions as a fiscally responsible state with much more forceful means and new laws and dispose of these multiple appeal processes. Prisons which are extra heavy facilities with reinforced doors and guard payrolls and prisoner expenses are extremely expensive compared to good standardized public housing. Good public housing is far far less expensive than prisons and would serve a much greater need. Good public housing is far less expensive. This prison system is far too expensive. LLXIIX77

Yes, amazing place,the cells are dark damp little boxes. The views are fabulous. To stay there it’s a foggy,damp and cold place to be. The inmates used to get hot showers,to discourage, escaping by swimming, because the cold would even be more of a shock to them.
My brother spent just over 2 years in prison for kicking the shit out of his wife. The COs in the video talk about contraband. When my brother was in it was the COs who brought in most of the contraband for the inmates. $100 would get you a pouch of tobacco and rolling papers. The female guards were prostituting to the inmate and that cost was $20. What the guards did was have the inmate get someone on the outside to buy a money order from the post office in the proper amount. Then fill out the money order payable to someone other than the guard and mail it to an address not connected with the guard. After the guard got the money order, the inmate got what ever was agreed upon.

What are the worst to maximum security prisons has to be H unit at the Oklahoma State penitentiary it is built underground it also houses the death row unit
I just found this channel and I’m really liking it
They wouldn’t like it! I can’t imagine anything worse than being incarcerated
This is so well done, very interesting to see how prisons evolve!
The inmates had hot showers so they wouldn’t acclimate to easily to the cold bay water.
Being a prisoner must be horrible. But being a guard is a maggot sandwich too.
What 😂
A guy that was in a federal usp (prison) said that the bars in that prison allegedly have smaller solid loose fitting bars (or solid pipes/coduits) inside the outer hollow bar. So if u do manage to cut threw the outter bar with a saw blade, once the saw blade teeth bite into the inner bar, it will just spin back and forth with the blade and it cant be cut unless u somehow u stop it from moving.
I'd use a shim
Once you cut the outer bar can't you just hold the inside bar while cutting it? I'm not sure if I got what you were saying but from what I thought you said if correct, couldn't you do that?
@@BriannaLKay u got it, thats kinda the point & design. Their is no way to stop it from moving with just one saw blade hole. I'm sure it can be defeated somehow. But it's an added layer of "pain in the ass" if u only have one cutting tool.
I know guys can sometimes defeat the the tamper resistant tourqe screws, by melting a toothpaste cap, pushing it in the screws head and letting it cool. It evidently will take the correct shape and can be strong enough to then remove some screws when it's done correctly.
When u got thousands of men & women, with 24 hours a day and multi year scentences just trying random stuff, sooner or later, something will work. It's kinda like having the biggest & cheapest Research & Development team in the entire world. 🤣
Same shit in west. Co. Jail Valhalla NY. Old side

Love your amazing graphics! The narration is top notch as well…subscribing now! 😊
Haha I wonder how many of those 'cell block builders' were hardened prisoners once themselves?
Saw a movie in which vicious criminals weren't incarcerated for years, but rather were instantly aged to old people and then released, having lost decades of their lives.
I could dig that! I'd have 'em run it backwards and take me back to my teens.
@@schizy Sorry, only runs forward😥
Altered Carbon had a similar concept, although they were put in a comatose state for their sentence, rather than it happening instantly. Neat idea to think about, but in practice it would provide zero rehabilitation and lead to incredibly high recidivism rates
The film Paradise?
@@mathsiecat not sure, that may have been one of them on this theme.
Okay. How did the man get out of the barbed wire?
I'm surprised they haven't built a super prison underground like from the movie Fortress.
Or a 1944 German shower stall……time to stop coddling criminals……..
Or on a large ship,that was from a movie as well.
@@duaneross9271 Are you thinking of Titanic ?
I was pretty shocked to find the existence of mega churches. That is insane. But, yeah, I'm surprised mega prisons don't exist over there too.

As a Mechanical Engineer specializing in building mechanical systems...I was hired a few years ago to design plumbing for an expansion to a Federal Maximum Security Prison in my Canadian Province...it took a couple week's of extra work, to adapt to Federal Prison requirements...oh well, I can now list it as an area that I have experience in...a detail the Fed's consider when hiring for future construction/renovation projects - it's not a common 'area of expertise'. It's secured a few new contracts - so it's something that I've never regretted - that extra work I dealt with...

The old Alcatraz prisoners seem quaint.
Prison napalm is more dangerous than a phone or drugs...

It becomes sticky and is so hot, it causes the akin to become so soft, it comes off with it
Cool fact - much appreciated
Security screws/ Safety screws (tamper resistant fasteners) have been removed by heating up plastic pen caps, sticking it in the screw and allowing the melted plastic to take to the mold.
You can buy the safety bolt head Allen wrenches at any auto parts store.
I watched someone climb through two fences topped with razor wire , they caught him and the floors they dragged him over were covered with blood.

the way this mf is praising and admiring and calling these absolute animalistic inhumane prisons masterpieces don’t sit right with me
You can always let the released violent felons live w/ you 🤷
It's funny how they left out the part about how the officer's bring in the contraband.
It's pretty obvious. Who else would? Santa clause. Yall can't be this dumb
Many female guards engage in sexual shenanigans with the inmates too.
Ya think Capt obvious

These barbed wires remind me of France I got stuck in the barbed wire a long time ago in Sangat, I tried to catch the train but I couldn't because it was moving so fast and the guards noticed me, I lost the exit hole. lucky to escape the barbed wire with little damage to the arms and legs😫

You're right it only takes 2 things time and pressure..😮
Just watched a documentary on the escape and they have proved that the two brothers actually survived the escape and successfully made it out and free!
so what?
They ended up on a ranch in Brazil.

I like those in the Nordic Countries and Switzerland... Tennis courts, nice parks, ping pong, media rooms, beautifully crafted, posh private suite rooms. Like a good 4-Star hotel... maybe even a little better.
But prison is meant to be about PUNISHMENT!
@@jackesioto lost freedom, in countries in which FREEDOM is TRUE, not just a saying, is scary enough and loss enough in Nordic countries and Switzerland.
Well they don’t have diversity. They don’t deal with western government violent crime stats.
@@jackesioto Rehabilitation is a much more constructive objective.
Prisoners in the Nordics have lost their freedom. Accommodation is of an acceptable standard to Norwegians, hardly “posh”. In a hotel, guests may come and go as they please, not so in prison. Unlike in the US, Norwegian prisons are effective.
The war on drugs as a big joke.
Imagine concealing your cellphone too deeply on accident, and being an influencer whose phone is on vibrate.
The money spent to keep criminals alive could be spent to help the homeless. Bring back the capital punishment.
W/ all the appeals it ends up costing more - how about Dems & Rinos over the L3+ years stop giving eelegulz & ukraine bureaucrats 500+ billion 🤷
They should build prisons deep into the ground, the lowest cells where the toilets from the upper blocks empty into and is super humid and dark and dingy thats where the child killer/rapist's live , floor above killer rapists of women and it goes from the worst to not so bad at the top , the lower you go the conditions get progressively worse including food served at the bottom its just the scraps left from the upper floors , no floor has acess to any other floor other than one lift ... Perfect prison
they wont do that will they
What an incredibly expensive way to breed more crime. It's amazing to me our founding fathers realized cruel and unusual punishment was a terrible idea hundreds of years ago when passing the bill of rights, and people like you still can't figure it out even with all the information in the world at your fingertips. Clearly the education system failed you
What if someone has a mental implant like a metal rod or something like that???
There should never be a prisoner that feels safe while he or she is in prison. Never!!
Exactly. If we keep them in fear we can ensure they'll come back. The moment you show prisoners any humanity, or give them skills to be productive members of society, they'll leave the prison and never come back. Keep them in fear; keep our private prisons profitable
The US didn't get the largest prison population in the world by chance. We worked hard to create a system that funnels as many people into a cycle of incarceration
being able to escape from a prison is no hallmark of insecurity.
AMERICA IS ONE SICK PUPPY. HER THREE BIGGEST BUSINESSES ARE WAR, CRIME, AND DRUGS. SO THIS SHOULD TELL YOU WHERE WE ARE HEADING. JUST THE WORLD'S NUMBER ONE IMMIGRATION DUMPING GROUND BEING SET UP FOR THE SLAUGHTER AND FAR TOO DUMB TO KNOW IT. THESE FOOLS HAVE NO CLUE WHO IS PLAYING THEM OR REALLY CALLING THE SHOTS. THESE MINDLESS SHEEP ONLY KNOW HOW TO TAKE ORDERS AND KISS ASS.
That's awesome! Great design 🎉

Yup, fine community policing, alright...Meanwhile 170 police and various L.E.O.'s armed with pistols, LONG GUNS and BODY ARMOUR vs. one small short woman with no gun and no training made them all look like cowards. She still gets threatened for talking to the media. Those officers continue to tell proven lies about their heroism on that day. She still gets threatened by those same officers for talking to the media. They say they'll have her kids taken away, have her house burned down, and her very life is in danger if she continues to talk to the press. Think about that for a moment. #Uvalde.
who is she that talking to the media

The toughest maximum-security prison is h unit at Oklahoma State penitentiary
OooOoo why why?? 😮😊
I don't think anything is tougher than Colorado SuperMax.
@@StrangeHappening-iu4fu there's a video on here about Oklahoma State penitentiary they also have a supermax it's called h unit it also houses death row and it is underground
I have no doubt it's tough but have you seen what Madagascar prisons look like? Or are you only talking about the U.S.?
ADX Florence, most secure prison in the world.

90% of contraband is brought in by officers and staff ...

Where there is a will theres a way no matter how secure the prison is
The only way a cell phone can get into a maximum security prison and then into an offender's hands is by a CO.
Rectal buddy…….ooooooo yeah…….stuffed like a turkey
incorrect af lol
Not just co's, any staff member and visitors.
Not correct. Phones come in inside keyboards. From family members. They are dropped be drones. And many other ways. Families hide contraband in babies diapers
False. Drones dropping packages too or just launched over the fence
The Razor wire. Here is exactly why it works. It must be set and clipped in a certain looseness. It looks to be very stable. One foot touching any of the wire, attracts all of the other wire around it, venus fly trap style.
One of my Sergeants, Scott Grundeis, had to extract and escapee, who had tried to step into the three loops of razor wire, at the top of a twelve foot fence.
He had made his way to the top, and there, decided, he could jump, up and over the top loop, land on the other two and spring off of those strands, assisting his forward momentum, he would somehow make it over the outer fence?
The inmate told me this as we rode to the hospital in the ambulance. His right foot was dangling from his ankle bones. Nothing Personal Strictly Business
Just sayin’

The federal prison system has been privatized and is now a profit motive corporation with the introduction of mandatory sentences. I heard that housing these criminals is costing the federal government some 300 billion dollars per year which is more expensive than the Iraq war at 130 billion. So, 300 billion is nearly a billion dollars a day. We can't afford to continually provide free room and board and showers and 3 meals a day plus weight training to repeat offenders of serious crimes. I do not know what these counties and states pay but I'm a sure it is some 30,000 per year per inmate. So, we are paying 30,000 per year to feed and house criminals compared to social security payments which are 12,000 for the retired and disabled.
So, these prison corporations are making huge profits at 30,000 per prisoner. We cannot afford 1.5 trillion dollars every 5 years or 3 trillion dollars per decade, all tax based just to keep dangerous repeat anti social law breakers off the street. So, we are going to have to examine this criminal justice system very closely and make hard decisions as a fiscally responsible state with much more forceful means and new laws and dispose of these multiple appeal processes. Prisons which are extra heavy facilities with reinforced doors and guard payrolls and prisoner expenses are extremely expensive compared to good standardized public housing. Good public housing is far far less expensive than prisons and would serve a much greater need. Good public housing is far less expensive. This prison system is far too expensive. LLXIIX77
I'm a big fan of prisons that use felon labor & make profits & provide jobs to law abiding tax paying citizens

@@chuckieb3798 That sounds horrible, I'm sorry to hear it. Really glad I don't live in the US if it's as bad as you say
@@chuckieb3798 What do you think is wrong with America that so many Americans turn into criminals?
Is it the education system? Politics? Religion? The politics seems pretty crazy, and I've heard the education system is really underfunded there. But I also know something like 90% of the criminals in prison are Christians, so that seems a strong factor
@@mikea5745meh , Americans are a rare breed - we go HAM living life , work hard & play hard

Is there anyone else here who has been to Alcatraz?
Yes, amazing place,the cells are dark damp little boxes. The views are fabulous. To stay there it’s a foggy,damp and cold place to be. The inmates used to get hot showers,to discourage, escaping by swimming, because the cold would even be more of a shock to them.
Best prison documantary I have ever watched and I watched them all.
How did 200 plus cell phones get in? Ask the guards themselves.

Wow two cell phones and a charger up your rear, now that's some real s***..😂😂😂😂
My brother spent just over 2 years in prison for kicking the shit out of his wife. The COs in the video talk about contraband. When my brother was in it was the COs who brought in most of the contraband for the inmates. $100 would get you a pouch of tobacco and rolling papers. The female guards were prostituting to the inmate and that cost was $20.
What the guards did was have the inmate get someone on the outside to buy a money order from the post office in the proper amount. Then fill out the money order payable to someone other than the guard and mail it to an address not connected with the guard. After the guard got the money order, the inmate got what ever was agreed upon.
i am very glad your scumbag brother went to prison. shame it was only 2 years cos she is going to spend many more years trying to recover from it. domestic abuse is as bad as sexual abuse.
@@TheDocRitchie, Now you show me where I did not say my brothers deserved what he got, I did not. Now on the same token you tell me how women who abuse their husbands do not deserve the same time served. See the problem with simps like you is they tend to think the woman deserves less time for the same crime.
If you care to continue your white knight crusade then let me know. We will go there.
Your brother is a domestic abuser and a liar. Female guards prostituting themselves for $20? You seriously believed that?
