'Greased up, naked' Charles Bronson in prison rampage

There's few sights more terrifying that a greased up, naked Charles Bronson charging in your direction, as 12 prison guards can now probably testify after the notorious prisoner's latest rampage. 

Broson, who has spent the majority of the last 36 years in solitary confinement, smeared butter over his naked body so he was harder to grip, before attacking six guards in Wakefield jail, West Yorkshire. It took another six guards from a specialist restraint team before Bronson could be overpowered and taken back to solitary. It's thought his anger over a recent bid to be freed was behind the protest.

Bronson was first jailed for armed robbery in 1969. He was locked up again in 1974 for another armed raid and taken a number of hostages in at least 10 sieges over the years. In 1999, he was given life for kidnapping prison teacher Phil Danielson at Hull jail. 

Who knew Charles Bronson was a Family Guy fan?
