Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
In the yard of Scheveningen prison, the Hague, the incredibly high resolution aerial photography has captured this prison inmate doing press ups!
As an aside, this is actually the prison where the former communist President of Serbia and Yugoslavia Slobodan Milošević was held for 5 years before his death in March 2006, shortly before his trial was due to end.

Thanks alexei, I copied the wrong bit of text (the end date from his time as President of Serbia) by mistake. Now fixed.

If you squint, you can see him plotting his escape.
less than a mile away & he’d be well hidden: Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth

What’s the point in hiding sensitive information?
Blurring it will show that instead of some warehouse, or a bunch of barracks housing, that it is sensitive or secretive thus making it more of a target.
I can see that he got knocked out by that guy next to him.
He’s actually picking up tiny stones which will be the key part of an overly elaborate plan to break his brother out of prison
“press up”? Is that anything like a push up?
No Cyre, press ups are way harder…
Okay…what’s the difference?
Pretty nice facilities! Check out the tennis court and track. I wouldn’t mind doing time there!
Me either. How come the picturs of my neighborhood aren’t nearly as clear?
Could it be he’s the neighbourhood sunbather’s boyfriend, perhaps?
