What kind of tricks made Harry Houdini most famous?
Houdini was, as many people are aware that have seen his shows, famous for his escapes. He could escape from ANYTHING, some say; from a simple straitjacket to a giant football, a jail cell, to a Chinese Water Torture Cell (Which by the way, was Houdini's own invention; it was never actually used in China, or anywhere). Many people, even today, believe that Houdini simply dematerialized and came back somewhere else to perform his escapes. The thing is, most of his escapes were done behind a screen. Most of the time, if you could see even a little snippet of what he was doing in there, it would be instantly apparent how the trick was done.
