Depends on what kind of locks they use; how many guards there are; whether you're strip searched when you arrive, etc.
I'm not an escape artist or anything like that, but I think I'd try to get hold of some lock picks and other useful items to bring with me.

no one can escape it. Everyone will be judged,whether they be good or evil ALL men will be judged according to his works. When Christ comes again, "Every knee will bow and every toungue will confess that Jesus is the Christ." " This is the life for men to prepare to meet God." There is no escaping it, that is why we are told to live a righteous life and to repent of our sins and to Come unto Christ.

First, I'll tell you that in no way does the Bible imply that hell is a fiery place of torment. The words for English translation rendered hell are She'ol in the Hebrew language, and Ha'des in Greek, which literally means 'pit', which is in connection with the grave.
This term used to describe the state of nonexistence and the common grave of mankind, where all the living (because we all die) eventually end up, because Ecclesiastes 9:10 says: " All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in She´ol, the place to which you are going." Like I said previously, She'ol is what in English is rendered "hell". As you see here, this Scripture does not apply to only 'sinners' (we all sin by the way, Romans 5:12 says, "Through one man [Adam] sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." ) but that Scripture applies to everyone. So everyone who has died is in She'ol, the state of being dead, unconscious, a state that is where all those dead are (which is connection with the memorial tomb which in the Bible is a symbol of a hope of a resurrection, a 'place', so to speak, to be resurrection from).
Also Romans 6:7 says "For he who has died has been acquitted from his sin," so a fiery place of torment that 'bad' people supposedly go to (according to Christendom's teaching), is a doctrine that contradicts what the Bible says, as you see in the above Scripture.
Also, have you read John 5:28,29?
Well, here's what it says: "Do not marvel at this [Jesus is speaking], because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his[Jesus'] voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment."
This Scripture is implying that those who lived a life of service to God and in harmony with his ways would be resurrected from the figurative grave (which is She'ol or Ha'des) to continue living their lives.
Notice an interesting point: Even the unrighteous (or those who did not serve God because they didn't know Him or come to know Him) are also resurrected because their sins have already been 'paid for' by their dying (as Romans 6:7 brought out). They will be judged after the resurrection which will take place when God's Kingdom is established on earth, and this will be during Christ's Millenial Reign, or 'Judgment Day' (not a literal day, of course but apparently according to the Scriptures will be 1000 years, as the 'Millenial' Reign indicates).
This will give all people (even the 'righteous') the opportunity to prove their loyalty to God and a desire to serve him so that they come to know more fully His ways, and reach a state of perfection, the state that both Adam and Eve lost by their rebellion, but Christ's sacrificial death opened the way for those exercising their faith in that ransom to have the opportunity of everlating life (John 3:16: "For God love the world so much that he gave his only-begotten son in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life"), which is only by the result of being perfect. [Notice: Imperfection leads to sin which leads to death. Perfection is the opposite of Imperfection so this leads to life]
I hope you got all that, lol.

Only by having a personal relationship with Jesus. His sheep will be separated on His right hand to inherit the kingdom of God and the goats to His left hand to everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angles

Ummm... Don't believe in them? The threat of Judgement Day is kind of empty and serves to keep Fundie X-tians all hot-and-bothered. After all, it could be tomorrow, are YOU ready? Blah, blah, blah. Just another form of emotional blackmail.

See Matthew 25:31-46.
Seems pretty clear to me. Be nice to all people. Love people who are mean to you. Don't do bad stuff to other people. Ask Jesus for help if you can't do these things by yourself. Then you go to heaven.

Hell and judgement day are creations by man to keep him in check..."be good or else". My God is a loving God. My God is not a "vengeful, jealous and spiteful one" as many today worship.
