LAKE WALES POLICE DEPARTMENT

SHACKLED AIRPLANE JUMP

 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

 This letter is to verify the escape performed by Anthony on “Secrets of the World’s Greatest Escape Artists.”

The lock used in the escape was indeed purchased at a Lake Wales Florida hardware store.  It was brand new and still packaged.  The package was opened on the plane by myself.  The lock was opened and locked on the restraint Anthony was wearing.  I retained the keys to the lock during this entire process.  Upon escaping and landing under parachute, Anthony had this very lock OPEN and removed from his bindings. There was no trickery or collusion involved in this escape.
