10. Manson Once Tried to Escape Prison in a Hot Air Balloon
When he was captured and arrested, Manson was initially sentenced to death. A constitutional objection to California’s death sentence got his term commuted to nine life sentences. After being put in prison, Manson was routinely a problem for the officers. He attacked personnel and was caught with contraband drugs and weapons on several occasions. In 1982, he tried to orchestrate an escape by hot air balloon when he smuggled a catalogue out of the prison hospital.
