I saw this on Australian Gamer today and just felt I had to post it.
http://www.australiangamer.com/news/1424_the_simplest_ideas_are_always_overlooked.html

Essentially, a Turkish man escaped from prison by hiding in a cardboard box. Has this man ever played MGS? We'll never know...

He'll be expecting a letter from Komani's lawyers anyway

That's some fine reporting there.

Im more suprised that he was able to break out by hiding in the box....but still even though hes a criminal, thats a pretty great way to get out of jail.

I am just curious to know why the guards did not think the random moving box was weird at all.

Also, is it just me or is that prison really easy to escape from?

Snake? Snaaake?? SNAAAAAAKE!?!?!

Did the people lifting the box not notice that it was about as heavy as a, oh say, Turkish prisoner -_-

Then again, now I have a plan to escape from the box factory...

Stupid guards, everyone knows to look inside the hand-hold if you see a box marked "kitchen 2" in " warehouse 3".

Duh.

I think they were distracted by the porno mag someone had dropped on the ground.

Of course it was Snake, notice they never revealed what the prisoner's name was.

So basically the guy did some average level sneaking for 3 minutes then had to watch a poorly directed espionage film about mechs for 3 hours. Shit man, I'd have stayed in prison.

More likely they'll say rapists and child molesters than armed criminals.

I shouldn't be saying this, but:

It was a German prison he escaped from.

I read about this some time ago (being a few days). I wonder if Hideo Kojima would feel pride at this.
