And I have not had a chance 226 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: to process it in any way, shape or form, because 227 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 2: it really went into the weekend taking care of children 228 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: and that Gus was sick yesterday.

Like number one, I didn't live close 236 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 5: enough to the beach, and then so it'd be like, Okay, Thursday, 237 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 5: I can go. But then the waves don't agree with 238 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 5: your schedule, right, so you go out and shit. But 239 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 5: you have those moments where you are like near death 240 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 5: and having to kind of just accept the power of 241 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 5: the ocean.

I feel very comfortable in the ocean. 246 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 2: And this was one time where it was just it 247 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: was really bad luck.

Every good prison break needs 345 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 2: an outside associate, and Vajoor had one ready and waiting. 346 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 3: His wife, Neddine. 347 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: Nedine, for her part, wasn't afraid to roll up her 348 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 2: sleeves and get in on the action. As soon as 349 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 2: Visor was arrested, she began taking classes to obtain her 350 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 2: license as a helicopter pilot. With that in hand, in 351 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: the months leading up to an event, she became a 352 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 2: regular customer of a helicopter rental company in southern Paris. 353 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 2: I love the French. You can rent a helicopter and 354 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 2: fly it away, and then. 355 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 4: It's just so all the more romantic. 356 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 5: It's romantic anyway, but because it's friends, it's just a 357 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 5: gorgeous story. 358 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: Oh you know, she was stylish, Chanelle. It was on point. 359 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: The owner of the company noted that she showed up 360 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 2: twice a month, like clockwork, sometimes with a friend, sometimes alone. 361 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: Renting a helicopter at the time caught roughly three hundred 362 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 2: and fifteen dollars amazing, and the dean exclusively paid in 363 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 2: cash in retrospect a glaring red flag which the owner 364 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: managed to steadfast ignore for more than five months. Inside 365 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 2: the walls of the formidable prison de la San Michel 366 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: Vargou had a befriended a man named Pierre Hernandez who 367 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 2: was a waiting trial on armed robbery charges. The two 368 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: of them took every opportunity examine the prison guards. They 369 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: couldn't find a place where the helicopter could land, so 370 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 2: at approximately ten thirty am on May twenty sixth, nineteen 371 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 2: eighty six, a helicopter flew low over Central Parish Nadine 372 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 2: Vajor ignored a hal of radio warnings and brought the 373 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 2: machine to a hovering stop over the roof of one 374 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 2: of the prison buildings. The warnings over the guards radios 375 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: of a helicopter on the roof were eclipsed by a 376 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 2: far more intense situation developing inside the walls, and eventually 377 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 2: Vagor and Hernandez emerged from an access door and job 378 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 2: unchallenged across the roof. Unchallenged, you ask, wasn't the weren't 379 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 2: the prison guards shooting at them and the helicopter? Great question. 380 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 2: I don't know why he has that little section in 381 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 2: the middle of. 382 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 4: His he brings the four. 383 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 3: Sure he does. He asked himself a question, and that 384 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 3: gives the answer. 385 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 2: The answer lies in the minutes before the two men 386 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 2: appeared on the roof. Even even French prison guards aren't 387 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: known to hold their fire during an attempted escape, especially 388 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 2: one that involves a helicopter. The Vjors were well aware 389 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 2: of this, having had several opportunities to study similar escapes. 390 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 2: Helicopter escapes were bizarrely common in France. They were part 391 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 2: of the twentieth century, so they knew that the guards 392 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: would need a reason to not shoot them. So, while 393 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 2: a helicopter inexpectedly hovered over the prison, the guards were 394 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 2: more focused on reports coming from inside. 395 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 3: Two inmates had apparently managed to smuggle. 396 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 2: In of grenades wow, and it were now threatening to 397 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 2: detonate them if they were approached. 398 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 3: The grenades were it was later revealed. 399 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 2: Nectarines from the prison cap which were painted green. 400 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 3: I mean the eighties were just crazy. You made away 401 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 3: with anything. 402 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 4: Yes, this is luleitunes. I love it. 403 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: It's also before crime, before smartphones, the internet, crime before 404 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: DNA was truly mastered. Why were It's amazing that people 405 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: weren't worse than they were now it's documented, documented, doc 406 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: you gotcha, gotcha, got you got to I mean everybody, 407 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: every house has nine ring cameras on it at this point. 408 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: It's just crazy. Back then, it was like if you 409 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: just walked away from somebody, they didn't see you until 410 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: you wanted them to. 411 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 5: Ever again, you could just make an id like on 412 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 5: your second grade teacher's lamination machine disappeared. 413 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah exactly. 414 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 5: And then I guess in France you could just wrn 415 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 5: to helicopter, So why wouldn't she be. 416 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 2: And nobody knows what a grenade looks like the nectarine 417 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 2: size thing. 418 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 4: I think that's my favorite part. I love it. 419 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: My favorite part the fact that they're like, not, they're 420 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 2: not faking it. They snuck a grenade in somehow and. 421 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 3: We didn't notice. 422 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 2: It's not that they're faking it, that that's a nectary. 423 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 3: That's the best part. And so here, so she pulls up. 424 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: They're holding these nectarines and like threatening them with the nectarines. 425 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 3: Yes, he gets on the helicopter. He uses a rope 426 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 3: to get up to the helicopter. 427 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: The other guy just decides to stay behind, like he 428 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: changes his mind at the last minute. Yes, so he 429 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 2: they leave. They land in an athletic field nearby, waiting car. 430 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 2: They run away. They survive for four months free. They 431 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 2: even manage to break their children out of police custody. 432 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 2: So they're doing And also this is his fifth escape. 433 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 2: It was his fifth time escaping from prison. So now 434 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,479 Speaker 2: they're out, and now they're and how how is he 435 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 2: caught four months later? So this prison was in Paris. 436 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 2: They never leave the city. They stay in Paris.
