Harry Houdini was very interesting to the history of mankind. Houdini was an illusionist who was born in Budapest, Hungary on March 24, 1874. Harry put on many magic shows. One of Harry’s most famous show is when he escaped from the Chinese water torture trap it’s a giant glass box filled up with water. Houdini escaped the Chinese water torture trap. Houdini was trapped inside a giant milk tank and he escaped.Houdini was very important to the history of mankind.
Death
Houdini died of peritonitis a disease because a collage kid wanted to test Houdini’s strength and he punched Houdini several times in the stomach when he wasn’t ready. After that Houdini still put on four shows after that he died on 10-31-1926 on Halloween in Detroit, Michigan. Houdini may be the best escape artist ever.
Dear Luke,
This is a really neat post! I learned a lot! I like how in the first paragraph, you said his most famous show, and then you explained what the Chinese Water Torture Trap was. Houdini definitely had a huge impact on many of the magicians today. He was inspiring, determined and creative. Thanks for sharing!
Love,
Mrs. C.
