Escape Artist


During my time as a professional stage magician, I sometimes did an escape act (once for an attentive audience at a reform school!). Here I am shown extricating myself from a straitjacket (in less than a minute) at the Houdini Magical Hall of Fame in Niagara Falls, Canada, in the early 1970s. I still occasionally do an escape feat for a workshop, Houdini séance, or the like.
