Why Escaping in a Garbage Truck is a Bad Idea

Alex

There's a good reason that all those Hollywood movies show prisoners escaping in laundry trucks. An inmate who escaped an El Paso jail in a garbage truck found out the hard way:

After escaping through the garbage disposal system, Medina-Bailon then hid in a dumpster when the trash was picked up by a garbage truck. The sheriff's office checked with the company providing garbage service to the jail facility which revealed they had already dumped their load at the landfill in Sunland Park, N.M. [...]

U.S. Marshals confirmed to ABC-7 Friday afternoon that a body found in a Sunland Park, N.M. landfill was that of a federal inmate who escaped the El Paso jail earlier in the day.

It's a boot.

Ohhhhhh.... You mean the black thing strapped to his leg... Others have already gotten that; corn cutter. But how many have actually used one or know how they work?

You people. Don't you recognize this? Back when Hermes fought the Harpies, he took a bad hit to the leg, and lost one of the wings off of his feet. While it was re-growing, Vulcan (or was it Hephaestos?) fashioned him this keen prosthetic leg wing. Worked like a charm. Don't you people read the news? Sheesh.

From Dave: "But how many have actually used one or know how they work?"

You lie down on the ground. Then a fellow farm hand grabs you by both arms and swings you around in a circle while walking up and down the rows of corn. Ta da!
