Britain's Great Train Robber, Ronnie Biggs (R), poses for photographers during the launch of his new autobiography 'Odd Man Out: The Last Straw' in London on November 17, 2011. Ronnie Biggs, 82, is best known for his role in the 1963 Great Train Robbery and for escaping prison in 1965 and living as a fugitive for 36 years. In 2001, he returned to Britain voluntarily and spent several years in prison, and was later released in 2009 on compassionate grounds as his health deteriorated. The launch of his new autobiography marks a rare public appearance and Bigg's first ever British press conference since the infamous train heist in 1963, according to his official website. The new book updates his 1994 autobiography and covers his early life of crime, the Great Train Robbery, his escape from Wandsworth prison, life on the run in Australia and Brazil, and his kidnapping.
