John Anglin

He also comes across like a defunct vacuum cleaner on point and he's like, can I have this to try and fix it? And everyone's like, I guess, right? We live in concrete, but sure, why not? Why not have this, right? So he basically MacGyver's this thing into a drill, but I am getting ahead of myself, right? I mentioned two fellas that he met before, the Anglin brothers, John and Clarence, right? They'd met West before and then in Alcatraz they ended up in neighbouring cells.

32-year-old John William Anglin and his younger brother, the 31-year-old Clarence, were two of 13 children to two seasonal farm workers.

So needless to say, their childhoods were not exactly ones of privilege.

They moved around a lot, unsurprisingly.
