Something I have learned from watching this is that even if something bad happens in you’re life there is always a way you can turn things around!!🫶🏻🤍

Hey bill its dre ..from oxford wisconsin...im glad u ok

You'd never know he was an inmate at a place like this, or that he spent such a large part of his life incarcerated he just seems like a kind grandpa you'd meet at the farmer's market or something.

Absolutely fascinating stuff. Bill is sharp for his age. Thanks for uploading this.

I am on the edge of my seat listening to this man. What a story teller. He is no different than ANY older guy you'd see at the grocery store, on holiday, or meet the teacher night.

You can Agree or disagree w the guy his past or present , imo it has been interesting to listen to his story thank you for sharing this 😊

He’s honest here, but it’s hard to respect someone who says he would still be ripping people off if it wasn’t for his age and that he was able to write a book and make money.

GOOD DOCUMENTARY ! SUNDAY 7/17/22 JULY 17, 2022

Had the opportunity to meet Bill Baker in San Francisco recently. He autographed his book and told me a story from his time in Oregon where I am from. Respect for this guy BIG TIME.

Today I saw him he was signing books!

Or was it the guard that killed him?

I would love to have been able to talk to him

Immediate hot take upon the first 2 mins is why it feels like a positive reunion instead of a condemning reunion. Like, the speaker is elated to bring him up instead of using a tone of disapproval toward his legacy. I’m fine with the event, but the tone should be of reform and condemning the selfish and often lethal methods taken to become a prisoner here.

I’m checking it out now

I’m checking it out now..

If you go - be sure to ask for Ian C - he works on Sunday - he is an amazing docent!!

I like that he can name other incarcerated than the notorious ones that are exploited on the tour. I’d really like to know who was in A Block because that corner consumed me with such sadness and emotions that I had to walk away and chill before I returned back in the prison. I took muliple pictures but even through editing, didn’t pick up anything unusual.

That was so interesting, I love hearing stories from the older generations, it’s living history! What a neat guy, glad he found something that’s lucrative, that won’t get him locked up again. God bless you Mr Baker.

I could listen to you forever, respect to you sir

My Great Uncle was prisoner 527 at Alcatraz. 1939-1942.

He might be old, but he's still a scumbag convict who deserved every hardship and difficulty he experienced. That idiots find this man (and other prisoners) worthy of praise is utterly baffling.

Be polite to the old person down the street, ex con or Vietnam veteran either way they have a story to tell !!! 2021

Interesting facts. Prisons intrigued me. How they are run. How the prisoners acted in them, are they like they are in the movies.

Another good Alcatraz History Lesson ruclips.net/video/dkGh98nUTiQ/видео.html

I was a corrections officer in Northwest Indiana.

Well Bill, incredible gentleman, thank you for bringing the story to life. I will, of course, will buy your book off amazon United Kingdom and help towards your "legal enterprise" Bless You Bill, and thank you for the tour. Kind regards, Robert from Margate in the county of Kent, United Kingdom.

I call BS when he said a normal person would make three, four or five dollars for an hour way back then for sewing gloves of all things. Fast forward to 1979 I was making 2 dollars and 10 cents an hour at a fast paced legit job working my ass off. 25 cents per hour way back then was damn fair for criminals.

Sir Did You Accept Jesus Christ As Savior And Lord?

Now People in the World Are Coming Up America Must Repent And Ask God For Forgiveness And Start A New Life In Jesus Christ Name Amen

I saw Frank Morris son's in IRAN THEY MADE IT THEY MADE IT THEY MADE IT THEY MADE IT THEY MADE IT

Is Mr Baker still alive>

Possibly the lamest Alcatraz prisoner ever. Still cool though I guess.

Absolutely fascinating.

4:25 Hey, is that George DiVincenzi on the left? He's one of the few former Alcatraz guard still alive today

I would of loved to visit Alcatraz and hear this ex prisoner, Bill Baker's story. You could tell though that those cute little kids laying on the floor were starting to get restless at 31:25 and probably hungry too ! LOL. I Myself saw Alcatraz from the shoreline when I was a little kid in the late 1970's. But this was before you could go in for a tour. So cool. I was alway's into gangster and criminal lore. Thanks for the upload. :)

I’m ten years old and I would love to go to AlkatraZ

He looked like Nicholas Cage in his Alcatraz mugshot

Him and Whitey Bulger were the last two Alcatraz inmates alive but now it's just him

Nowadays.. you can capitalize on just about anything... ...even BEING a douche bag ex-con. There's a reason why someone thought it would be a good idea to have him locked up in Alcatraz, the REAL "end of the road", vs ANYWHERE ELSE. "I sucked at life. Buy my book."

I met Bill whilst visiting Alcatraz. It was great chatting with him. He was good telling stories as his books attests too. I hope he's still visiting out there, selling and signing his books and enjoying life.

he says rehabilitation never worked, but yet you go to places like Finland, sweden, denmark, switzerland, norway, where the prisons more closely resemble college dorms or even a hotel, and they have amenities , and luxuries , privileges... rehabilitation, and training is the biggest focus. and the re-offending numbers are much lower than in the us and other countries with '' harder '' prisons and more prisoners..... these countries who americans call ''soft'' on prisoners,---- but yet these countries have way lower crime rates and much lower re-offending rates than the US and other places where punishment is harsher

the average prisoner: todays IQ is between 68 to 80

The Daughter of The Warden of Alcatraz has been running a tidy Business on the island for 5 decades, Selling stories to any Gullible Person Willing To pay to Hear Them, Just like The Group Here Right Now. Big Business ? .

I always liked to hear about the oldtimers. Never missed a chance to do so. You can't help but compare yourself against the oldtimers. Can't help but wonder how they would have operated these times. Ed Tom Bell

Portuguese understands Spanish in fact there’s strong similarities between the two languages. A very easy transition to either languages they share most of the vocabularies. This guy is full of BS

Most of the Alcatraz prisoners should have been executed instead of serving prison terms

“If you're gonna catch criminals, you got to be a bit of one yourself.” ― Caleb Carr

Bill reminds me of Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell.
