I'm built to put a drug in me and feel okay, being in the real world, which is sobriety.
Picture a life filled with high-speed chases, daring escapes, and constant brushes with the law. That's the world Danny Shannon once knew. In this episode of 'Chase The Vase', host Brock Bevell sits down with Danny, who was once Australia's most notorious prison escape artist. As a teenager, Danny found himself entangled in the grip of ice and heroin addiction, leading to a life of crime that included stealing cars, breaking into homes, and frequent incarcerations.
His most audacious escape from Sydney's Silverwater prison involved scaling a five-meter razor-wire fence and swimming across a shark-infested river, all while evading the water police. But this isn't just a tale of crime and chaos. Danny's story takes a powerful turn towards redemption and recovery. He opens up about the immense challenges he faced while battling addiction and the ongoing struggle to stay sober.
Danny's transformation from a life of crime to becoming an addiction recovery advocate is nothing short of inspiring. Through his candid conversation with Brock, you'll hear about the importance of community support and the role it plays in overcoming addiction. Danny's journey is a testament to resilience and the incredible power of change. If you're looking for a story that combines thrilling escapades with heartfelt moments of hope and recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
