Escape from Jail in a chopper-John Killick

from THE CLINK · host Podshape

In March 1999, John Killick escaped from Silverwater Jail in NSW when his girlfriend  hijacked a chopper during a joy-ride over Sydney and forced the pilot to land inside the prison. The helicopter plucked Killick from the exercise yard, avoiding a hail of bullets fired by the prison's guards in what was one of the most daring prisons breaks in Australian history.
