Alcatraz, the infamous island prison, recorded 14 known escape attempts involving 36 inmates between 1934 and 1963. Of these attempts, 23 inmates were caught, six were shot and killed, and two drowned. The most famous escape occurred in 1962 when Frank Morris and the Anglin brothers successfully fled, although their ultimate fate remains unknown. Overall, the escape attempts highlight the desperation of inmates to leave the notorious facility.
There was an "escape" attempt from Alcatraz on June 11, 1962 by 3 men. It is not technically an escape because the escapes are said to have died on the escape across the bay due to the freezing water, although there bodies have never been found. There is some who believe they did survive and just never were caught, but that hasn't been confirmed.

Henri Young was sent to Alcatraz after being convicted of murder in connection with a robbery gone wrong. He had initially been sentenced to prison for a previous crime and, while incarcerated, he and an accomplice attempted to escape, which led to the death of a prison guard. This incident resulted in Young receiving a harsher sentence and being transferred to the notorious federal prison, Alcatraz, known for housing some of the most dangerous criminals. His story gained further attention due to the legal battles that followed his time at the prison.
