One funny prison escape story is about an inmate who tried to escape by disguising himself as a prison guard. He stole a uniform and even practiced walking like a guard. But he forgot to change his shoes, which were the standard inmate-issue ones. As he was strutting around, another guard noticed his shoes and immediately caught him. It was really a comical blunder on his part.
A prisoner once tried to escape by mailing himself out. He managed to fit into a large box addressed to an outside location. But unfortunately for him, the guards noticed the box was moving and breathing. Another funny one is about a man who painted himself to blend in with the prison walls. He thought he could just stand still and the guards wouldn't notice him. Of course, it didn't work.
Sure. There was a prisoner who was really into gardening. He managed to grow a small patch of flowers in a corner of the prison yard. The guards were so amused by his determination that they even helped him get some better seeds sometimes. It became a little bright spot in the otherwise dull prison environment.
One common theme is inmates' attempts at hobbies or skills in a prison setting. For example, like the gardening story I mentioned before. Another is the banter and inside jokes among cellmates. They often find humor in their daily prison life situations, like sharing a really bad meal but making jokes about it to lighten the mood.
In a certain prison, there was a group of inmates who were really into DIY projects. They made a makeshift mini - golf course using whatever materials they could find like old broomsticks for clubs and tin cans for holes. They had so much fun playing it that even some of the guards would stop by to watch and laugh at their creativity.
One funny thing could be when inmates have a really bad haircut day. In a story I heard, there was a self - appointed 'barber' in prison who was learning to cut hair. One of his customers ended up with a Mohawk that was all crooked and lopsided. The whole prison had a good laugh at that.
One memorable story is about an architect who designed a prison with very narrow hallways. It was supposed to be a security measure. But when they brought in the first batch of inmates, many of them were overweight. They got stuck in the hallways, and it took a lot of effort to get them unstuck. It was quite a comical sight.
One funny prison break story is about a prisoner who tried to dig his way out using a spoon. He dug for days and finally thought he had made it. But when he pushed up through the ground, he found himself in the prison yard. Another one was a prisoner who disguised himself as a guard. He got all the uniform details right but his walk gave him away as he strutted around like he owned the place instead of walking like a proper guard.
Sure. One funny story could be about a prison architect who accidentally designed the cells so that the toilets had a direct view of the guard station. The inmates were constantly complaining about the lack of privacy while using the facilities, and it took a while to figure out how to modify the layout without major reconstruction.
One funny story involves an inmate who thought he could bribe his way out. He made a deal with another inmate to pretend to be a high - ranking official who could arrange for his release. The 'pretend official' put on a show, talking big and making demands. But the real guards quickly saw through the ruse because of all the inconsistencies in their story. It was like a bad comedy skit playing out in the prison.
