I'm pretty sure it's at the childhood circus he used to visit
Houdini never had a mentor in his magic career. He had to figure out the trick of the trade on his own.
Harry Houdini did not typically perform the sword swallowing trick as part of his acts. While he was known for his escape artistry and illusions, sword swallowing was more commonly associated with sideshow performers and not a signature part of Houdini's repertoire. Houdini focused on magic and escapes rather than the physical feat of sword swallowing.
Pull my finger . . . or maybe that was his favorite . . . I forget.
Harry Houdini's last trick was a performance of the "Chinese Water Torture Cell," in which he was suspended upside down in a locked glass cabinet filled with water. During the performance on October 24, 1926, Houdini was unable to escape and succumbed to a burst appendix shortly thereafter. This trick was notable not only for its difficulty but also for being one of the most dangerous illusions in his repertoire. Houdini's death marked the end of an era for magic and escapology.

It is thought that the very first magic trick was performed by Merlin the great who did exist. He performed old parler trick known as the magic cups.
To perform the magic balloon trick where you put something in the balloon from the bottom, you will first need a small hole in the bottom of the balloon. Then, you can carefully slide the item into the balloon through the hole without letting any air escape. Finally, seal the hole with glue or tape to prevent air leakage.

If you separate magic tricks from escapology, then Houdini's most impressive trick was the disappearing elephant trick. Here an elephant was walked on to the stage and into a box; the box was rotated then opened. The elephant and keeper were gone. The trick is all the more impressive if you know that under the stage was a swimming pool so there were no trap doors. It's generally thought that Houdini did the trick with a slanted mirror inside the box. This method is still used today to make the Statue of Liberty (or the like) disappear.
No Harry Houdini died of a illness and not while doing any famous trick. I think it was a infection of the appendics.
Count de Grisley was the first magician to perform the trick of sawing a woman in half when he did it in 1799.
