5:53 Its moments like this you get to see how these 2 really felt about each other.

[@goblin5030]

Adam has addressed that a few times and I think the part where they argue over the overlap length is more why they broke up. They always had the same goal it was just more of how they went about getting to it was the issue. Adam mentioned that they worked together really well and they had very similar minds he talks about how they could assemble something under water and communicate only through hand signs and do excellent work. They just were often not using the same scope to look at the target.

[@schuckdaddy1318]

[@user-tb2jy9lu3d]

Because Adam is a prick who wants everything his way and thinks he is never wrong and he's wrong a lot.

AGREE! Morris was the brain behind all this! And they made it! These guys had months to prepare, and surely they calculated the SF bay waters/tides etc..I personally think they had someone on the outside who picked them up in a boat about 400-500 M away from the island.

[@lhaviland8602]

That information was not publicly available when this was made.

[@thetotalitarianturtle3755]

But the raft was found on Angel Island, meaning this Mythbusters is not necessarily correct anymore

[@maxdecphoenix]

@@thetotalitarianturtle3755at the end of this episode, the narrator mentions that the FBI files claim that 'an oar' was found on Angel Island, not the raft (not saying that hasn't been updated, I don't know, just saying that's the information they had at the time). And tidal testing showed that a back-pressure tide would carry anything from the north shore of the Marion Headlands directly to Angel Island. So basically, if the escapees dumped their raft and oars at the headlands, it would have been carried to Angel Island. I wish they'd have shown this with the tide model.

[@somerandomgamer8504]

No, it wasn't... According to the final FBI report, the escapee's raft was never recovered.

[@johnwatson3948]

The raft was made from plans they found in a Popular Mechanics magazine at the prison - surprised this path not shown (maybe the show can’t mention “Popular Mechanics”). As commented in part 1 they didn’t have to be silent if they did it during the day when they had permission to be cleaning the cell roofs.

[@TheChampionofthepeople]

[@juleswoodbury58]

I think the raft from raincoats idea was a decoy for their real escape plan. They probably hid on the island when the guards thought they escaped with raft and hid themselves aboard a provision ship when it finally blew over.

[@Z_732]

One of the oversights... they didn't actually use the material.. and the waterproof oils they used. Anybody remember the tents you could touch and make it drip on someone? Yep its a real thing. And they didn't know that.. meh, they did real well tho. Did a good job

[@MrNoUsername]

If they really wanted this to be EXTREMELY accurate, they should do it in the exact same place in the dark, with the exact same tools the escapees used, the exact same materials, using the same drying technique, etc.

[@PlanetXtreme]

Bro they should even invent a time machine to go back in time and do it too!

[@heichelb]

​@@PlanetXtreme There was never actually an Alcatraz breakout. It was actually just the Mythbusters using time travel in a deeply elaborate attempt to test the myth as accurately as possible.

[@DaveDexterMusic]

All that adds time, which the convicts had. They're testing the concept more than the execution.

[@bobjames2423]

Another disadvantage is that Morris had an IQ of 133. I don't believe these two together can reach to that level!

[@CiroDiMaRzio12304]

@@bobjames2423 u really think a iq of 133 can not be beaten by 2 men that atleast have a iq above the 80?? 80+80 is 160 that makes them already having more then the escapè. and they have probably a higher iq then 80.

This episode really shows how frustrating it must have been working with Adam. Like Adam hitting Jamie in the face with the pontoon, I think most people would have told him where to shove it.

[@cas5518]

I might be mistaken but I’m pretty sure that the escapees use the hot pipes in the maintenance room where they made the raft to seal the rubber edges with heat and also to blow up the raft

[@DrLeroyGreen]

Of course you would make your heading towards Angel Island! IF you make it there, GREAT! If the tide pulls you west and south, you'd end up as far north as possible on the north side of the bridge. Aim for the north side of the bridge, and you'll go out to sea. These guys were criminals. However, as a human you somehow feel compelled to route for them getting out. It's almost like The Running Man.

[@robvangessel3766]

I just saw the 1979 Eastwood movie ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ, and I saw no pontoon. The scene shows the 3 men lying on an inflatable and just casting themselves in the water. The film was careful with so many details, I'm surprised they took liberties with that one.

My theory is that they got swept out to sea and the raft started leaking air and they all drowned. That could explain why they were never found.

Nope. Raft was never found.

[@anonymousperson3023]

Wait. I justcrelaized this. Jamie and Adam together on the raft is just barely a fit. Now, I know that they are somewhat bigger but not by a whole lot so maybe 3 people couldve fit on the raft but the escapees were originally planning for 4 men to fit on the raft. But the raft only seems to be able to fit 3 so I think the measurements are just wrong

[@christopherdean1326]

Has to be said, Frank Morris was a good looking guy. Taking nothing away from them though, remember that some British POWs in Colditz managed to build a damn plane! They erected a false wall in the attic and were working behind it when the Germans came to inspect the attic, A guard tapped on the wall, found nothing wrong with it despite the fact that it was made of painted bedsheets, and went on his way. The only reason they didn't launch it was because the Yanks liberated the camp before they were ready to go. Always like to think what the Germans must have felt when they were shown the glider. "Look Fritz, we built a plane and were about to fly our of your "escape-proof" prison." "But zis voz against ze rules!" "Yeah, we had a meeting about that..."
