Who is Harry Houdini?

He was a magician in the early 1900s who was famous for his "escape tricks." However, there is a tragic end to it.

This historical figure, Harry Houdini, is a noticeable person in history since he was a major source of entertainment by becoming the figure subject of magic tricks and the conductor of it.

He was famous for his escape tricks, where others lock him or trap him onto something or somewhere, and he tries to escape in a matter of time.

His tricks were said to be almost impossible, which brought more attention to Harry Houdini and his street shows.

Examples of his tricks were escaping from a street jacket, escaping from prison, escaping from a container locked and sunk under water and much more.

However, these series of successful inhuman tricks had dramatically diminished after a failed attempt of his boastful career.

He claimed that by flexing his abdominal muscles, he could outstand any punches.

One of his college student decided to abrupt his claim, and killed him by punching him when he was not ready.

He was a person of respect due to his dangerous and fatal acts performed in front of crowds for their entertainment.
