The year’s whackiest movie so far is inspired by an equally out-there true story
’s story even more incredible is that it’s based on a true story. So how did we get to the point where a member of the animal kingdom turned into Scarface? Let’s find out.Back in 1985, a former narcotics officer turned drug smuggler called Andrew C. Thornton II came up with the scam of smuggling drugs from Columbia into the US by dropping the packages of cocaine out of a plane into the Tennessee Valley in Georgia.
However, things did not go to plan. Despite being decked out in night-goggles and a bullet-proof vest - not forgetting his Gucci loafers - Thornton whacked his head on the tail of the plane and then his parachute failed to open. His body was found - along with $4,500 in cash, a couple of guns and knives - in a neighbourhood in Knoxville, Tennessee.
