Alcatraz Was the Most Dangerous US Prison

Krakatoa Is East of Java
Krakatoa was the site of a major volcanic eruption in 1883. They even made a movie about it in 1969 called “Krakatoa, East of Java.” But Krakatoa isn’t east. It’s just an island in the Sunda Strait west of Java. You can still go east from Java to get to Krakatoa but you’ll have to go around the entire globe.
