Greklands svar på Robin Hood, Vassilis Paleokostas

The government of Greece faced intense criticism after his second escape from the same facility, and the government responded by firing three justice ministry officials and arresting three prison guards.[2]
What makes him famous in his hometown is the fact that it is said that he has given most of the stolen money to poor families, making him a local "Robin of the Poor", reminiscent of the famous tale of Robin Hood.[3]

On the afternoon of Sunday 22 February, Palaiokostas again escaped from Athens' Korydallos Prison by helicopter. He and his accomplice Alket Rizai, 34, climbed a rope ladder thrown to them by a female passenger in the helicopter as it flew over the prison courtyard.
Guards on the ground opened fire and the woman fired back with an automatic rifle. No injuries were reported due to the short gun fight, although one prison guard injured himself while trying to pull out his gun.[7]

But here’s where Janosik began to show some true balls: his death. Betrayed by his former friend (who he had broken out of prison), Janosik was caught and sentenced to death. A massive hook was prepared where Janosik would have been impaled and left to die slowly. While most of us would have searched frantically for a way to get off the hook (ha!), Janosik was too manly to care.

Given an ultimatum of death by hook or using his oration skills for the government, Janosik screamed, “If you have baked me, so you should also eat me!” and jumped on the hook.
