年青的胡迪尼

除了努力鍛鍊他的體力外,胡迪尼也努力鍛鍊他的腦力。為了賺錢及尋找自己的冒險旅程,韋斯12歲就離家了 。韋斯很小就喪父,他跟他媽媽賽瑟西亞 (Cecilia Steiner Weiss) 在各方面都十分親近 。這是1886年時,他寄給他媽媽的一張卡片,底下的簽名為「您的懶散兒子,韋斯」 (Your truant son, Erich Weiss) 。因為他少小離家,所以對胡迪尼而言,事事都必須要獨自解決是很重要的。您認為這對他的生涯是否很有幫助?


In addition to working on his physical strength, Houdini also worked on his mental strength. Weiss ran away from home when he was just 12 years old in order to earn money and seek adventure on his own. Weiss lost his father at an early age. He maintained a very close relationship with his mother, Cecilia Steiner Weiss, throughout her life. This is a postcard he sent to his mom in 1886. He signed it from "Your truant son, Erich Weiss." Because he left home at such a young age, it was important for Houdini to be able to rely on himself. How do you think this helped him in his career?
