(SYDNEY, Australia) -- The thin man is back behind bars. Police in Sydney, Australia, report recapturing an inmate who went on crash diet to escape from custody.
Authorities charge Robert Cole dropped more than 30 pounds and squeezed through a hole in a wall just six inches wide. Cole escaped from a hospital Wednesday, but he wasn't on the street very long. Officers captured him over the weekend.
They say Cole tried to disguise himself by drawing a beard on his face in pen.
He's now in maximum security. No word, though, if guards are trying to fatten up Cole.
Are you kidding me????
I did that when I was 5.....plus a really cool pirate's scar.....Aaaargh...
It was probably a blue-ink pen too.
Now if he is truly smart, he should write a book about 'Weight Loss'.
I bet it becomes a best-seller.
When he comes out he would have millions waiting for him.
Chapter One - Motivation
First, get yourself to twenty years in prison....
What?
It would have worked if he made Groucho Marx eyebrows too.
