The Wild Story Behind How A Fake James Bond Film Crew Used Moonraker Hoping To Arrest A Famous Fugitive

Ronnie Biggs was one of the robbers involved in the famous Great Train Robbery in England in 1963 (which is different from the film with the same name). He and most of the gang were caught within weeks and sentenced to 30 years in prison. After serving just over a year, Biggs escaped and initially went to Paris, then Australia, eventually making his home in Rio de Janeiro in 1970.
