Hold onto your butts because this is a wild twisty turny TRUE tale of a man who broke out of prison not once but FIVE times and the daring women who helped. Michel Vajour, known as the ‘King of Escape’ was an elusive prisoner and a chronic escapee. One breakout included help from his wife, Nadine Vajour, who obtained her pilot’s license to help her husband escape from the roof of a jail. Listen for more details and the other escapes which include Babybel cheese, soap, and nectarines.
