AMAZING ESCAPES FROM
THE TOWER OF LONDON
G'day folks,
The Tower of London is a real stronghold, complete
with its own guards, sky-tall walls, and a moat surrounding it.
Still,
40 prisoners somehow managed to flee the Tower of London, one escape
every 20-30 years. The first person to ever break free from the fortress
was one Bishop Ranulf Flambard, who somehow got the guards so drunk
that he successfully managed to slip away using a rope in 1101.
Some of these escapes were even more impressive and featured writing
letters with invisible ink, dressing up as nuns, and drugging the guards
- so that's where movie makers got the plots of pretty much every
prison break movie imaginable!
