High Voltage Power Line Used As An Escape Route? Most Insane Zipline, Ever! True Cold War Story.
1986 - Czech/Austrian border. Two nonconformists, in a small Czechoslovakian town called Litomysl, one of them a lumbar jack, a bit of a 'mad scientist' trying to discover free energy, the the blond one a railway mechanic. These two decided to humiliate the totalitarian regime, and broke out of the biggest Supermax in the world, which was Communism. Land mines, dogs, snipers and rows of coiled razor sharp barbed wire didn't stop them in their pursuit of freedom. They penetrated highly restricted, and militarized border area, and escaped by zip lining on a 380 kV power line that comes out of a nuclear power plant called Dukovany, over the deadly Iron Curtain, from former Czechoslovakia, into Austria,, and all that in a severe rainstorm. According to Western media, this was by far, the most electrifying, daring and certainly the most creative escape of Cold War era, with the level of intensity easily comparable to, if not surpassing gruesome escape stories from North Korea.
Truly, a unique triumph of a human spirit that would perfectly fit at least into "I Shouldn't Be Alive" TV documentaries.
