The Crate Escape tells the real-life story of Brian Robson, who in 1962 got homesick in Australia, where he had come to work but couldn’t afford a return ticket to his homeland. Unable to go back to the UK and in desperate need of money, Brian Robson decided to airfreight himself in a wooden box, which was a cheaper option than an aeroplane ticket. What was supposed to be a 36-hour flight turned into a five-day-long journey which could easily cost him his life. Find this adventurous read here.
