I was puzzled by the recent escape by two convicts who rappelled 15 stories on tied bedsheets to their freedom. (I understand that one of them has since been captured.)
My question is a simple one that may help prevent future occurrences of this kind.
I could not help but wonder how they managed to amass enough bed linens to make a rope long enough to scale down 15 floors? Also how could they do this without being discovered?
