Treks: Alcatraz

Alcatraz-America’s most notorious prison, surrounded by the frigid waters of San Francisco Bay, was once thought inescapable. But in 1962, three prisoners dared to challenge that belief. Join me as we retrace the steps of Frank Morris and the Anglin brothers, who attempted the impossible: an escape from The Rock.
In this video, we dive into the history and mysteries of Alcatraz, from its origins as a military fort to its transformation into the ultimate maximum-security prison. Explore the harsh realities of life on the island, where every moment was watched, every move controlled, and where the cold waters of the bay formed the most formidable barrier to freedom. Walk through the cell blocks, visit the solitary cells of D Block, and stand in the exercise yard where inmates glimpsed the freedom they could never reach.
We’ll also uncover the details of the 1962 escape attempt-the tools they used, the plan they hatched, and the mystery that still surrounds their fate. Did they make it across the bay, or did the cold waters claim them? The Rock holds many secrets, and even today, Alcatraz remains one of the most haunting and captivating places in America.
