It was the biggest heist ever carried out in the UK and frontpage news around the world. The mastermind behind this most audacious crime of the twentieth century was Bruce Reynolds.

They thrived on adventure and glamour, and the Great Train Robbery was their last ride.

Tidligt om morgenen den 10. august 2008 kørte en gummiged ind i Dansk Værdihåndterings central i Brøndby. Gerningsmændene slap afsted med omkring 70 millioner kr. Røveriet var ekstremt professionelt planlagt. Røverne var bevæbnet med automatvåben og bar skudsikre veste, de havde spredt partisansøm på vejene omkring gerningsstedet og placeret 11 brændende lastbiler, som blokerede for politiet.

Den 3 januari 1960 rymde tre fångar från det ökända fängelset Alcatraz, även känt som "Klippan". De tre fångarna, Frank Lee Moris och bröderna John och Clarence Anglin, flydde på natten på en flotte bort från ön där fängelset låg. Flotten och männen hittades aldrig igen. Det som hittades var en paddelvän. "FLYKTEN FRÅN ALCATRAZ" är det första avsnittet i serien "BERÖMDA FÄNGELSERYMNINGAR", en true crime-serie om fängslade människors frihetslängtan och deras kamp för att undkomma den monotona tillvaron bakom galler på de mest häpnadsväckande sätt.

Danmarks förmodligen mest hatade fånge, Peter Madsen, lyckades fly från Herstedvesterfängelset en morgon i oktober 2020. Han försökte tvinga sig till friheten genom att ta en psykolog som gisslan och hota henne att han skulle spränga sig själv i bitar om hon ringde på hjälp. Madsen hann dock bara vara fri i ett kort ögonblick innan han fördes tillbaka till sin cell. "UBÅTSKAPTENEN" är det fjärde avsnittet i serien "BERÖMDA RYMNINGAR", en true crime-serie om fängslade människors frihetslängtan och deras kamp för att undkomma den monotona tillvaron bakom galler på de mest häpnadsväckande sätt.

I augusti 1973 rånade bankrånaren Jan-Erik Olsson en bank i Stockholm och tog fyra bankanställda som gisslan. Han krävde att brottslingen Clark Olofsson skulle släppas ur fängelset och föras till banken. Det slutade med att Olofsson stannade där inne i sex dagar. Gisslansituationen slutade väl, men att gisslan fick sympati för brottslingarna var spektakulärt. Fallet gav namn åt det berömda fenomenet Stockholmssyndromet, där personer som hålls fångna mot sin vilja utvecklar en relation till sin eller sina frihetsberövare och tar parti för denna eller dessa inför polisen.
