Alcatraz was cracked open and the prisoners spilled free eagerly, but not everyone was spirited off the Rock.

Some were given inflatable rafts and a set of oars.
Others, either through desperation or cunning, headed for the prison's own docks, where official motorboats awaited those able to overpower the guards.
