Alcatraz escapees found alive - Prisoners who had reportedly escaped Alcatraz in the year 1962 are said to be alive. This is according to the latest report by FOX News. Could the prisoners really have survived their great escape from the fortress of a prison?

First off, the reports on Alcatraz escapees found alive is nowhere near true. They could have been alive if they weren't swept out of the sea using their raincoat-type raft. New research and studies claim the prisoners from the famous Alcatraz escape more than 50 years past had a big chance at survival.

The scientists had come up with the theory of Alcatraz escapees found alive after their study on the strong tides of San Francisco. In addition to studying the tides, they also studied routes of the famed 1962 Alcatraz escape. If not for the thunderous waves that claimed the lives of the escapees, they could have had escaped to the Golden Gate Bridge's outcrop shelter.

The three Alcatraz escapees found alive were one of the most mysterious prison breaks recorded in the history of America. Such escape was dated on June 11, 1962. The escapees were identified as Clarence Anglin, John Anglin, and Frank Morris. With the help of their dummy head creations, they fooled prison guards into thinking they were in their cells.

Other escapees were not so much as lucky as the Alcatraz escapees found alive. 14 attempts of escape were recorded which involved 36 men. All of the escapees recorded in the 14 attempts were either caught and sent back to prison or died in their escape.

For those who have yet to hear of the famous break-out concerning the Alcatraz escapees found alive, the FBI has shared details about their infamous escape on their official website. Today, Alcatraz remains a site for ghost hunters and a well-known tourist spot in San Francisco.
