How I Escaped From Uncle Sam's Devil's Island (The Alcatraz)
It’s June 11th, 1962. I’m sitting in my cell, just after supper. The guard finished his rounds a few moments ago And now the other inmates are playing their instruments. It’s music hour, if you can believe it. But even though I’ve a squeeze box of my own, I ain’t playin’ tonight. I’m on three hours of sleep - if that. And I’ll be lucky if I get any at all the next 24 hours. That’s because I am Frank Morris, prisoner AZ 1441, and tonight - I am escaping Alcatraz.
It’s the most famous prison in the world. A fortress set atop 22 acres of rock. There it sits in San Francisco Bay, a mile and a half across turbulent waters from Fisherman’s wharf. Maybe on a good day, you can make out the Golden Gate Bridge, three miles away. If the fog has lifted, that is, and you ain’t huddled up in your peacoat ‘cause even in June it’s 60 degrees Fahrenheit and the wind is always blowing.
This video is inspired by true real life events.

The team and I are taking a much-needed vacation for a few days, so please enjoy these videos that we LOVED making for the I AM channel, that we wish more people had seen. Let me know what you think and if you feel like we should bring this style back. Much love from me (The Infographics Show 'Guy') and everyone on the team!

Anyone Wondering why "I Am" got cancelled. In a livestream I asked the guy why there were no new videos. He replied "It was too costly and too time consuming." He also said that someday he hopes to get onto it once again but isn't really optimistic about it.....

Love you all! You and your team work really hard, and it really shows in your videos!
I just love these I AM videos. I thought they were dead and stopped, but I'm glad they're back and on the infographics channel.
Love the stories telling and art !! And the voice acting knocks it out of the parks !!
This storytelling in combination with the animations is just unusually good. Hoping to see more of these!
Al Arlington got to escape. He was helped by Sal Deluca, Billy Handsome and Finn O'Leary. I heard they flew to the Golden Gate Bridge and fought.

Absolute brilliance! Please, make more.
I used a similar method of using noise to cover the banging. The bed unscrewed with a belt buckle and when I kick the football against the wall my escapee bangs bed against double layer plexiglass. Once through we wait and eat dinner and then we get out the window and escaped.. Canadian under 18's facility 2005 High Prairie, Alberta.

This is a real escape story, but unfortunately no one knows if they actually escaped alive from after this point, or if they died at sea. One can only speculate as no bodies were ever found.

Only part you guys forgot was that Frank took an IQ test at some point and scored 133 making him a certified legal genius.
That was great I would love to hear more so interesting!
I wouldn't imagine what they'll do to you once you've been caught escaping.
Love this channel
I love this video game like graphics! You guys should definitely start doing your videos this way from now on. 👍🏻
Thank you for such an interesting video. I always wondered how those prisoners escaped Alcatraz, and now I know.
Im loving these stories. 😍
i like the 3d animation for these types of videos on the channel, a nice switch up from the basic 2d
this is amazing! keep this up
when you escape from that: Ggwp police is not alert enough
These have been awesome!

Well to be fair Alcatraz was a bit of a footnote so no surprise you didn't learn about it. I'm not even sure if California students learned more about it because I'm from Kentucky and Alcatraz was sometimes briefly mentioned like with AL Capone during Prohibition but it was just brief
Love the new format
This was amazing , Very intense as well
I followed the I am channel closet it was in my top 5 hopefully you guys bring it back

This reminds me of a clint eastwood movie where he played a fella by the name of Frank morris who escaped from a prison called alcatraz
*I remember a History Channel show about these guys a few years ago that showed very solid evidence that they DID survive and that they were living in a ranch down in Argentina.*
This video deserves more views, like way more views ;-;
I'm just gonna say that our favorite lab rat has it the worst in this channel, underrated OG
The voice matches the video...🔥
More of these lease. Really enjoyed I Am.
You should make such videos more often..
Who is narrating this video it’s amazing
I love this video
This video has a cool style to it
Little did Frank Morris knew that his story gonna go down in the history as the on of the most celebrated and mysterious escaped
What a story👏👏
Wow, content creation excellence.
Thanks voice actor for doing the voice.
The voices in these recent videos make it feel like the person who is the subject of the video is actually telling their story to you. I wish there were more of these alongside the usual videos, although I would prefer the animation look less like a video game like in this particular video.
