Footage of a person dangling from a high-capacity drone above a field in the Philippines turned out to be a practice run for a prison break planned by notorious South Korean crime lord Park Wang-yeol. Known as the “sugar cane field killer”, Park was serving a 60-year sentence at Manila's New Bilibid Prison for the murder of three South Koreans in 2016. Authorities uncovered his 100 million won (US$74,000) plot to use a drone capable of carrying up to 75kg (165lbs) to escape just ahead of his scheduled repatriation to South Korea on other charges.
