Yes! During harsh times of slavery, a man named Henry Brown in Virginia lost his family to a plantation in North Carolina in 1848. He was devastated, and refused to let the same thing happen to himself. So, he built a box and "Mailed himself to freedom." He was shipped to his friends in Pennsylvania and lived free the rest of his life.
