Escape From Alcatraz
On June 11, 1962 at Alcatraz, a high security prison, Frank Morris,and brothers Clarence and John Anglin escaped from the prison. They did it because they were desperate to escape the torture of the prison.
They tunneled a way out by using spoons, nail clippers, and vacuum parts and they made a raft out of rain coats that they had hidden. The three prisoners also made fake heads so the guards wouldn’t realize they were missing. They also built a fake wall to cover their tracks. After they escaped their cells, they went to the roof, climbed down the drain pipe and stayed hidden from the searchlight.
Once they reached the shore, the convicts used homemade life vests and a homemade life raft constructed from raincoats. The water was between 55 and 60 degrees. The waters around Alcatraz were known for strong currents and sharks. A month later, a dead body wearing a prison suit was found drifting in the ocean beyond the golden gate bridge.
I believe that they died for the following reasons. On the water, the escapees were in a homemade raft. A homemade raft would not hold up very well, which could cause them to drown. Once in the water for about 20 minutes, they could get hypothermia or be attacked by sharks. The strong currents could also sweep them out to sea. A month later, a dead body wearing a prison suit was found drifting in the ocean beyond the golden gate bridge.
I recommend closing the case because those men are dead. If they did survive, they would be dead or really old.

Max the Cat
The worker and my parents seemed to talk forever. Finally, the worker put the cat in a box. He was squirming in the box trying to escape but it was useless. When we got home, we let him out in my room, and he went right under the bed. We eventually got him out with a toy. I decided to name him Max.
We were going to Petsmart to get me a cat. I saw kittens and adult cats and even a mama cat with her litter of kittens. I finally decided on an albino Siamese cat. The Albino cat loved it when I scratched under his chin. Albino means something is all white and can’t survive in the wild. This is because they can get a sunburn that can give them a skin disease that could kill them. An albino’s eyes are special because they are pink and another color, like blue. An albino of any kind is rare.

The Cheetah Hunt
You see something running really, really fast, but it’s so far away that it looks like a spotted bug that is chasing something. Then you realize that it’s a cheetah hunt. The cheetah gains on the gazelle, and the prey is caught. At that point, you run away, not knowing that a cheetah only attacks a moving target. Then you run faster and faster, until you are running as fast as you can. The cheetah gets closer and closer and closer until you think it’s over. To be continued...
Cheetah Hunt Part 2
You keep running and running, until you get to a big gulch. You have two choices:
one, jump for your life, or two get eaten by a cheetah. Either way you would probably die. You take the choice that will give you a chance to live. The cheetah is so close that you make a jump for it, and you barely get a chance to make your life-saving jump. With a stroke of luck, you are able to grab the other side and climb up. Right after that, you run straight to your house. The cheetah waits for his prey to return, but you’re never going back.
