We recount the escape from Alcatraz in June 1962 by inmates Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin. Despite the prison's reputation for being escape-proof due to factors like sharks, guards, and freezing currents, these men meticulously planned their exit over a year, which included digging through cell vents, creating decoy heads, and constructing a raft from raincoats

We recount the extraordinary experience of Tsutomu Yamaguchi, a Japanese engineer who remarkably survived both the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. It details his business trip to Hiroshima, his near-death experience during the first bombing, and his subsequent return to Nagasaki just in time for the second atomic blast.
