A bit of Alcatraz history to peak your interest

Developed as a lighthouse, it was used as a military prison in 1828 and then as a federal prison in 1934. Alcatraz has been notorious for jailing some of the country's most ruthless inmates. It housed 1,576 prisoners including Al Capone, George “Machine Gun” Kelly, and Alvin “Creepy” Karpis. Closed in 1963, today this penitentiary provides tours to the public.

Some curious facts:

• Al Capone played banjo in the inmate band
• There were 36 escape attempts, all of which failed one way or another. Though some speculate a trio of prisoners succeeded in the task that inspired the 1979 movie "escape from Alcatraz".
• It is actually possible to swim to shore - as proven by one prisoner who reached the Golden Gate Bridge just to be collected by swarms of cops. This inspired a triathlon called: Escape from Alcatraz, where hundreds go to complete a 1.5-mile swim annually.
