74 brave souls are doing their best to "get out of dodge" this evening, as part of a unique challenge being run by Trinity College Dublin to raise money for the St Vincent De Paul Society and Amnesty International. 

The contestants are taking part in TCD's Jailbreak - their task is to get as far away from Ireland as possible - but without any money.

The teams of two spent the day busking, begging and lobbying companies to raise funds. Reports back to base suggest some of them are already on their way to Dubai, Salzburg, Geneva, Madrid and Frankfurt.
