胡迪尼的神奇戲法

胡迪尼必須想出比巨大牛奶罐脫逃更具戲劇性的演出來當做下一個表演節目,而他辦到了!他自1913年開始表演名為「倒立著進入酷刑單人牢房」的新戲法 。在這個戲法中,胡迪尼的腳踝被固定在支架上,人被上下倒置的放入水中而且鎖在一個觀眾看得到地方。他再一次的自這個姿勢及地點中脫困並逃離水牢。另一個脫逃表演叫做「水裡喪禮」 。胡迪尼自稱這個表演為「我試過的把戲中最偉大的功績」。您曾看過魔術秀嗎?看看胡迪尼的下一個把戲吧!


For his next escape, Houdini had to come up with something even more dramatic than the Giant Milk Can escape, and he did. His new trick, which he began to perform in 1913, was known as the Upside Down Water Torture Cell. In this trick, Houdini's ankles were secured in a brace and he was put under water, upside down and locked in place in full view of the audience. From this position he freed himself and escaped from the water cell. Another escape was called the underwater burial. Houdini called this "the greatest feat I have ever attempted." Have you ever seen a magic show? Check out Houdini's next trick!
