This is the LockPickingLawyer and what I have for you today is this so-called “inescapable” prison.
"Click out of one. Two is binding..."
Before I show you how I escaped this prison, let me first tell you a little bit about how it actually works.
Even better cause he's a lawyer 😂
Video length: 2minutes37seconds
@@sealand9049 1:30 minutes is showing how it works and 30s promoting his tools.
I can see an obvious design flaw: You simply starve yourself until you lose all depth and become a 2D shape, at which point you simply slide through the window and remain side-on to any guard towers until you work out your bearings.
It doesn't even have to be the window! Being 2D, you can just clip through anywhere or hide inside walls. I think you're on to something...
You could also consume all the air inside the cell until the sub subpressure makes the concrete walls collapse. No need to use your fists as stated in the video.
I know you're joking, but if you do try to starve yourself they feed you through a tube.
@@richardmoore609 Jokes on them, I'm extremely allergic to tubes.
@@TheDemocrab they feed you anti-allergy-tube pills
So, the secret ingredient was concrete... and psychological torture. Who would have thought?
The real prison was the friends we made along the way
You forgot the weapons.
Because after all it is still the US.
the ADX supermax is NOT a prison for common criminals,this place houses terrorists, mass murderers, and spies, the kind of people who are beyond rehab
@@jezrielbaquir3237 It doesn't 'house' them, it tortures them.
@@jezrielbaquir3237 Wikipedia:
"The long-term goal is to keep them at USP ADX Florence for no more than three years and then to transfer them to a less restrictive prison to serve the remainder of their sentences."
So according to Wiki ADX Florence is meant for rehabilitation.
Even if that rehabilitation only means to be able to put them back into normal prison. That's still rehabilitation in a sense.
When you’re Norwegian and hear “I had a holiday in Norway”. And I’m like “ah yes, I know where this is going”
I only got it the moment he said "Halden Fengsel"
Let me guess... u read the title?
I am an Indian and still knew it before he went in deep. Guess Halden has a reputable reputation worldwide. LOL
I knew of the prison, but as a Swedish speaker, 'fengsel' was also a giveaway. :P

"Hello, this is the lockpicking lawyer, and today I am visiting a supermax prison. The guards are all very nice and challenged me to find a way out of it. Unbeknown to them, they already provided me with all the tools I need. As you can see, their steel handcuffs are in and of themselves very easy to pick, so to give myself a challenge, I picked them with this single shard of grass, one of the guards had under his boot. Now I have this long steel cable, which I can bend to make shims etc. However, I don't feel like picking the doors the usual way, as it is monday and I had a wild weekend with Miss lockpicking lawyer, so instead I will use this one design flaw from their camera system and the electric conductivity from the steel cable, in order to trip their system and open every electric door in the vicinity at the same time. Now all that is left is to pick this one last door, while the guards handle the prison riot, which just happened to be a Masterlock, so this one shard of grass should be enough. ... nothing on one ... click out of two ... three is binding ... the core seems to be moving, so I think pin four and five are probably zero cuts, back to one ... click out of one, and it is open. I must say, I expected a bit more out of a Supermax prison, although I assume that most normal lock pickers will have a bit of a problem with the camera system. Anyway, this has been the lockpicking lawyer, and I will see you next time."

@@MrMessiah2013 makes sense. But I clicked on the video just because it's HAI and I didn't even pay attention to what it is about.
Dang, this inescapable prison sounds a lot like torture. Just replace that window with artificial daylight that's always on, so that the inmates lose all sense of time and it'd literally be the basement of the Miniluv from 1984!
For some mentally ill criminals with no chance of rehabilitation, taking away their ability to communicate an escape plan with others is a necessary step to protect the populace. Even if it drives them more insane, if the alternative in any way increases their physical ability to escape, we shouldn't risk it, at least not for some of the worst of the worst who murdered dozens of people.
Dont fret we do that in most prisons too
Still less torture than prison rape.
@@calculuslover2078 is it?
@@psgamer-il2pt I guess it depends on who the person is this is more mind rape the guards can't get close enough for physical rape
The most impressive thing about Norwegian prisons is the that they have one of the lowest rate of repeat offender in the world. That's quite different from the US system which has the highest in the world.
Its almost as if punishment without guidance doesn't work.
They're not great at catching people.
That’s the difference in the mindset between going to prison as your punishment and going to prison to be punished. The prisons in the United States are usually officially called correctional facilities, and I think they came up with their name to gloss over the fact that there’s very little correcting going on.
@internet person The information is relevant. If the overall rate is lower, this means that less crimes are committed. Therefore, there are less people imprisoned not because "they are bad catching people" but because there are less crimes.
And that's exactly how the US wants it. Don't get me started. It's such a fucked up system and it literally makes me angry to think about.

@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 its partially lost due to a storage fire in 1967
(They didn't)
ANY prison is escapable **IF** you have inside help. And remember that everyone has their price. EVERYONE...
Well, theoretically, it couldn’t been unsinkable if the front of the ship was bolted down mechanically instead of manually.
I’m a Southern Colorado local, and it’s crazy thinking that people like the Unibomber and El Chapo are just a couple counties over from me. One thing I’ve learned living here is that if a prisoner goes on a hunger strike they put them on a feeding tube, so you are basically there until nature takes its course. You also have a great view of the Rockies at the prison, and the second you walk in you will never see those mountains again.
"Secure, guarded neighborhood"

The 100% inescapable prison could also define a prison with a 100% mortality rate.
Well there is prisoner exchange and the fact that some people are occasionally not given a life sentence
It already exists and we're all in it
@@jesus-ck4elare you 14
That is called a death camp.
@stevenorrington473 Yes but it does still have a 100% success rate at insuring nobody escapes. Results are results
You know it’s that inescapable when they let you know how it runs.
Actually very little is known about how it operates. It surely has other security features they are not telling us. Very few pictures of the inside of the facility are available online. In fact, I think many this video used are not even from this prison.
@@jeremywj Its a crime to take pictures or video of a prison from inside (or outside) without permission from the wardens and in some cases the higher authorities from there. In my state, there is literally a dude who patrols the perimeter of the camp in a car, usually armed (or in my state always as far as i know) watching for both attempted escapes and unauthorized people scouting out the place out. And thats just from the state prisons I know of. Feds take this a tad more seriously is all aspects.
“Administrative” is about the scariest low-brow name for a prison
The American government is good at thinking up euphemisms. "Enhanced interrogation" isn't torture and "collateral damage" isn't carpet bombing villages. But they really are.
@@Ozymandias1 the entire middle East is listed as 'collateral damage' currently
"administrative" can include anything from MDC's (which are basically jails run by the BOP) to the ADX... it just means the facility holds a mix of inmates...

@@jakubpuchalski2583 There's a point where people ARE unable to be rehabilitated though.
It gets thrown around a lot in discourse because, well, most prisoners ARE and if they can be, they should. But prison also serves as a punishment and housing for people who are 100% a threat to society.
You think Anders Breivik can return to society? The guy who killed 77 people and injured hundreds more by himself?
@@dddgaming885 why not?

Yeah, like most prisons in the US. They don't really care that much about rehabilitation xD
supposedly made for people that threaten a shit ton of people's lives so it makes sense
Capital punishment is nothing compared to life in there
You could expect nothing less from the richest shithole on this planet.
@@VVane01 Although all the people located inside are most likely really terrible, it does not excuse the fact that it is still torture.
I read about a world war 2 POW camp that was in Canada. Apparently it was a completely open prison, the German POWs could go into the local town or even hiking trips because the POW camp was literally in the middle of nowhere, several hundred miles from the nearest coastline. Then you’d have the width of the Atlantic to cross. Even if they wanted to escape it would have been practically impossible travelling such vast distances.
Actually the federal prison system also houses petty criminals too. Such as DUIs, domestic violence, thefts, etc on Indian reservations or other land that belongs to the government. These inmates populate the minimum camps or low facilities.
supermax prison does not scare me. I have a monopoly get out of jail free card.
That only works if your name has a letter in parentheses after it. Ideally if it's the same letter that's actually running the government right now. Otherwise you're screwed.
So that is actually one of the more common items confiscated in prison, they get tons of those sent through the mail.
Simple, by hiring private companies and adding occupancy clauses and as a result creating an incentive for mass incarceration… oh, you mean physically unescapable.
Nearly all prisons are publicly owned and operated.
The issue of private prisons is grossly overexagerated
@@MohammedAli-pj1it it’s just one aspect though, and mass incarceration is a huge problem for many reasons beyond private prisons.
These companies go out and convince people to commit crimes..

@@johnladuke6475 But that doesn't make sense
I know that the people in that prison probably did some pretty heinous things, but I can only imagine what it must be like to live the rest of your life under those conditions.
You remember those cartel execution videos? El Chapo is the guy who ordered those. These people are far beyond “pretty heinous.” This is only for evil people.
@luke5100 This kind of thing has a strong reason to exist and operate like this, because you're dealing with terrorists and such, yet it really shouldn't have that reason in the first place
“The unpickable lock”
“The unsinkable ship”
“The inescapable prison”
I’m beginning to see a pattern here
This place is the definition of cruel and unusual punishment. The sheer level of damage that solitary confinement does to a person mentally is absurd, and they're completely isolated 23 hours a day, with a CHANCE of talking to others from a distance for less than ONE hour a day. It's... Honestly disgusting.
Yeah, most of the world would consider this absolutely barbaric. The best part is this: quite a few cells are actually not filled with “the worst of the worst” but what they call “nuisance prisoners”, people who bother staff, file lawsuits and the like. They justify this by pointing at the high occupancy in other prisons, but it’s just one more reason this is sickening. At one point there was apparently a 16-year-old in there whose worst offence was stealing a car.
Edit: That was I believe a state supermax prison and not this one but they’re basically identical.
I totally agree. The punishment of imprisonment is to take away one's freedom. There's no reason to take people's dignity as well.
@@jbird4478 Well if you mail bombs to multiple people or reveal state secrets doing immense damage to the country i think it’s deserved.
Well.. they’re terrorists and murderers and shit so. Just don’t be a terrorist or a murderer and you won’t have to go there, the people in there inarguably deserve to be there though
@@farmertyler8087 they don’t through. According to ACLU research the state Supermaxes are often used to lock up “nuisance prisoners” (people who file lawsuits, annoy staff etc) when occupancy in other prisons is high enough they can get away with it. They’ve literally locked up a 16-year-old who’d done nothing more than steal a car in one of these prisons in Wisconsin.
As far as federal prisons being reserved for people that commit "serious crimes", and old friend of mine is serving an 18 year sentence in a federal prison right now for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine (his sentence was so long because he was a drug addict and had 2 other nonviolent felonies on his record). This guy is the last person on earth that should be serving a long stretch in federal prison. Our justice system is a dumpster fire.
This prison isn’t for people like him. If you watched the fucking video, you would have seen it’s for actual terrorists and evil people. El Chapo and Ted Kaczynski aren’t low level drug dealers.

"There was a flatscreen TV"
"Turns up I was in a norwegian prison"
Yeah, I understand mistaking a norwegian prison to a hotel room
Its humane, thats why people dont escape. People often say that arent people then more likely do crime? No, most people still value freedom and dont wanna spend 12 years in a motel-style room.
I remember a quote
“The punishment is removing your freedom.”
This quote basically means that prison is supposed to be a place that simply restricts freedom. Not violate human rights
Fun fact: Norwegian prisons have got a rehabilitation rate which the US system only can dream of.
And the crime rate is one of the lowest on earth, though there isn't even a real life sentence. Even 1st degree murder is only around 7 years.
Unless a psychological disorder is diagnosed.
@@norbertfleck812 Implying the US prison system wants rehabilitation lol.
That defeats the purpose, its a perpetual business.
@@kekerosberg1654It's not just that. In Europe, unless you are part of a crime organisation or plan to move to another continent, being on the run for the rest of your life is worse than serving your sentence. You can't get an ID card or passport for obvious reasons. This means you can't open a bank account, and using your old one would be foolish. Then renting a place to live is next to impossible because very few landlords accept cash, and in many European countries, landlords have to either register you with the state register or at least make sure you register yourself. You can't register a car, and when you drive one, you have no valid driver's licence. Oh, and you want phone or internet service? ID and/or bank account, please! Want to earn some money on the side legally? ID, SSN, and tax ID, please. Trying to circumvent that by having your spouse sign the paperwork? Guess where the police will be looking for you first.
Oh, and one more thing for Norway: Want to buy some food? Good luck finding a place where they accept cash.
Now, if you have the choice between that hassle for the next half-century and that American prison, sure, the hassle is worth it ten times over.
I bet all that psychological torture makes these extremists much more reasonable, and knowing that the government does awful stuff like this doesn't at all inspire others to extreme points of view.
On the bright side at least the people being tortured into ever deepening insanity all have multiple life sentences and will never be released, meaning this is just a human rights abuse instead of a public safety issue.
Except a bunch of people have been moved from ADX Florence to less secure facilities, and a bunch have been released, or put into witness protection, or released and deported to other countries, so in some cases the government is putting people through 24 hour psychological abuse for decades on end, then releasing them. There's no way this could possibly go wrong.
Every part of this video (including what I thought it was actually going to be about) makes me sad.
It’s almost like death would be a preferable alternative.
@@FatBoy42069 Death might be preferable to endless torture, but just not torturing people is also preferable to endless torture.
None of this is necessary.

Yes this whole prison is basically torture in my eyes. I know it's easy on the internet to hate on criminals, but torture is a step too far for me.
That's okay it's only a human rights violation when other countries do it
@@SabertoothSeal yeah, because the US just never agreed to the relevant treaties :P
@@jdatlas4668 "bUT thE eU" is the only point you have to stand on. Nobody cares if they want to extradite people or not.

I was going to say, jesus, even for the worst criminals in society, man, this is no condition to keep a human being in
Actually some of the people in state Supermaxes are there purely because they annoyed staff in other prisons by filling lawsuits. Because demanding your rights is now not allowed? US courts seem willing to defend this, at any rate, and the US is sort of immune from international sanctions and courts, sadly. Amnesty International has been denied access to these facilities since 2001… they know this isn’t okay, they just don’t care.

I never understood why super secure prisons aren't just below surface bunkers. Like, you can have only one connection to the surface at one central location. Reached by a long tunnel away from any part that houses prisoners. Creating *the* ultimate bottle neck for any possible escape route. Open nothingness is one thing, literal stone walls in any direction as far as you want is another thing.
Early Roman's would use a converted, old cistern for that exact reason!
Because you need sunlight too fool.
Cost. Bunkers are expensive and US prisons are often profit motivated companies.
The rest of the world considers constant solitary confinement in a concrete box a form of torture and thus designs prisons to be humane, also eliminating bunkers.
It does sound pretty secure though, not gonna lie
If you watched Better Call Saul, you’d understand it’s very VERY expensive to build bunkers underground. It requires lots of blasting, lots of ventilation, and even more security and safety protections. Because if the elevators break or a fire breaks out, you’re stuck.

Whether they commited horrendous crimes is one thing, but saying that they deserve this kind of torment for it is another entirely. To me this is simply undefendably cruel and amoral, and ignoring it or trying to justify it is either equally cruel, or wilfull ignorance.
I don't know how anyone can look at this and not only not be shocked, but take joy and pride in it. There's nothing to proud of here, this is an absolute bloody shame, "America, land of the free, defendor of human rights" ? Has there ever been a bigger more gross lie?
This is not justice, this is just mindless sadism.

Yeah, unless you're somewhere, everywhere else is mostly nowhere.
It's amazing that nobody in the US government seems to think that it's curious other countries don't need prisons like this.
Other countries don't have unabombers.
This is really depressing. 23 hours a day in solitary will drive anyone criminally insane if they weren’t already before
That just sounds like cruel and unusual punishment to the point where death would be a preferable alternative.
Plot twist: he actually went into prison in Norway but he escaped and he's making This up
In a Norwegian prison, you don't 'escape'. You ask nicely and they look you in the eyes deeply. If they see that you learned your lesson, they let you go. They almost never err.
Which means, he'd be still there, because he's irredeemably shifty. Not even the location of the HAI Headquarters is disclosed. I mean, how more obvious could it be that he's a criminal mastermind with his organisation and tremendous wealth and power somehow being based on ... bricks.
@@MikeKojoteStone perhaps THAT'S why he's so fascinated with bricks, he stares at them all day!
For the inmates this may be more then just half as interesting.
It's not about if you CAN escape, it's about if you WANT TO escape. Here, Scandinavia has the edge.

Wow this isn't a video about bricks... Maybe is secretly sponsored by some federal agency
I do believe people could break out of steel cuffs depending on it's thickness, but they'd be so hurt they wouldn't be able to get far, plus the second you break out anyways, even if your bones are intact, you'd be shot by the guards.. yep inescapable.
US: We spend millions of dollars on supermax security prison, with carefully designed cells to prevent prisoners to talk to eachother, look outside, or in other words never escape for the rest of their lives!

Rest of the world: WTF is wrong with you, US?
@@jdatlas4668 Keeping away max-security prisoners shouldnt be a bad thing
@@DarjeelingEnjoyer this isn’t about keeping them away. This is literal psychological torture. Much of the world has condemned this, and it’s a big reason the EU refuses to extradite certain people to the US. Nobody deserves this, and most of the world would consider it a massive human rights violation.
@@DarjeelingEnjoyer These conditions are inhumane and violate human rights. The first part of the video litterally showed how you can design a prison that is just as effective at keeping prisoners in but also doesn't torture them (solitary confinement is torture) and offers means of rehabilitation. Just putting people in isolated concrete cells like the US prison will make rehabilitation impossible and leads to mental illness (or makes mental illness worse).
Boo Hoo, if you landed yourself in a supermax you don't deserve anything less than what's coming

Mythrodak in 2040: "Ah yes, something to do while my clothes are at the dry cleaners."
I saw a documentary about a Norwegian young "prison" and I was so surprised! Those kids go to a farm where there are about 10 other kids. They learn how to care for the animals, how to make products and sell them. How to cook and repair stuff and they also still get to learn what they would learn at school. They have all their own roomes and their stuff. They aren't forced to do anything. They have a few people working their that are their familys.
They are not looked up!
Those kids there get to have a loving family and learn all kids of skills. They are allowed to go to the market.
At the end they learn how to live in society because that is often what they didn't learn at home. When their "sentence" is done, they get help finding a place to leave and a job. They also have people they can ask for help at any moment. When I saw that documentation, none of the kids that were there did something stupid. They all got a foot in life and developed to me great people.
That resort in Norway sounds incredible! 😂

0:25 The sign on the door says "Visitation 1". So that's probably not a cell.
Fun fact: these pictures are pretty standard in American prisons and the security level is really only differentiated by the visitation and canteen food items allowed. American low security prisons are basically normal countries torture facilities.
When he uploads on your lunch break💯💯
I just noticed something really funny - if you listen the the first HAI video and then jump forward through the series, the host's voice gets higher and faster very consistently.
Just like hacking, the weak spot won't be physical, it'll be workers. If you can influence enough people through threats, bribes, etc. you can walk out of there. It doesn't even have to be guards. Maintenance crews, installation crews, it crews can all be very useful in orchestrating an escape. That "all doors can be locked by the push of a single button" reads as "infiltrate the it infrastructure and you can unlock a path for yourself while locking away most guards on the way". I am not claiming that it's easy, not even that you can do it yourself, but with a competent crew on the outside it's far from impossible.
I feel a little envious of their soundproof rooms.
Hh right?
So true, having to hear my next door neighbour at 3am is more of a punishment.
Sign me up for one of those sound proof rooms with no social interaction !
is a prison “inescapable” if nobody ever tries to escape?

Jesus, the eighth amendment to the constitution can really be stretched to infinity it seems.

The room from the norwegian prison you show is not a cell, its a visitors room. the sign on the vall that says "besøk 1" means visitor 1

@@stoutyyyy I get what you are trying to imply and no. I don't care what your opinions are, these are the worst people in the country and they deserve the psychological torture. A lifelong murderer who has taken the lives of multiple people should honestly be put in some kind of zoo where people can sit and laugh at them all day. Your immense misunderstanding of what these people have done is scary that you can jump to the idea that they are being mistreated. They aren't "human" like you think they are. They like to literally put people through a living hell. If you weren't so spoiled you would have the same opinion, so don't act like those killers are your buddies because one day you could have some psychological trauma of your own from someone like one of them. Believe me, I know.
