Yoshie Shiratori (白鳥 由栄, Shiratori Yoshie, July 31, 1907 – February 24, 1979) was a Japanese national born in Aomori Prefecture. His family name Shiratori means "swan" in Japanese.[1] Shiratori, who became an anti-hero in Japanese culture, is famous for having escaped from prison four times.[2] He was first imprisoned after being forced to admit to a murder he did not commit. He could pick locks, scale walls, break handcuffs and dislocate his joints at will. His most infamous escape, consisted of him using miso soup to rust the bolts on his window bars and handcuffs to escape

Akira Yoshimura published a novel Hagoku based on him. A memorial to Shiratori is in the Abashiri Prison Museum.

There are numerous takes involving his escapes. The information has been documented sometimes and sometimes it has been folkloric at most.

He is most famous for his Miso soup prison break from Abashiri Prison, where he dabbed Miso soup upon his iron handcuffs, legcuffs, and the small iron window in his cell. After a while, the iron rusted and came off. After that, he slid through the window and escaped from the prison cell. - Nairaland
