  • This 1953 film plays with an interesting idea: HOUDINI REALLY HAD MAGIC POWERS.

  • i came here because of criss angel

  • i came here because i typed "houdini" in the searchbox

  • We are being fooled. At the beginning we can see that the sleeves are normal and the arm is away from the chest, but at 2:11 when he pulls the jacket away, we see that the sleeves are attached into the jacket and they do just one piece of clothing, so he just has a "bag" over him.

  • @MiniBanana7 of course this isnt the real harry houdini.. they r doing a reanctment

  • rogan

  • he really does look like he has a spray on tan.

  • Tony Curtis looks like he has a spray on tan LOL.

  • I thought that Tony/Houdini was being hypnotized. The look on his eye's was real weird.

  • i can move stuff with my mind

  • 0:33 the guy on the floor farted to strong

  • @fnyjkr we COULD know if it wasn't for bess's cousins who say that bess "wouldn't approve" blah blah blah if we performed an autopsy on houdini before he ROTS away!! SO ANNOYING!!!! *stab stab*

  • Outstanding scene. 

  • 2 great (originally) hungarians in one person

  • Houdini and Curtis born in Hungary

  • yes google brought us here all of us

  • lol

  • It would be impossible to keep Houdini locked up if he went crazy.

  • HPBD

    

  • like if google brought you here

  • i c ic....the trick to escaping is to wear makeup, stare a at a random object like their the boogy man and start sweating.

  • @offmynutz9000 You should be locked away because you are mental enough to think you are witty and make stupid comments about what is obviously a great scene. But more and more people like you, clueless and classless seem to be about. What are you, 14 years old?

  • @TiminPhoenix :) *thumb up*

  • google brought me here :)

  • HBD

  • Happy 137 birthday.

  • Happy 137th

  • Happy Birthday Houdini!

  • @fnyjkr bess once while tasting harrrys food before he ate it, got food poisoning, but fortunately he recovered. there was some suspicion that the spiritualists had planned for harry to eat it and die, as he was exposing them and their tricks. it is a possibility. the ruptured appendix was actually caused because a guy came up to him (possibly hired or linked to the spiritualists) and asked if he could punch houdini in the\i stomach. before houdini could tense up his stomach to prepare

  • the guy punched really hard a few times, and then walked away. GRRR EVIL!!!!

  • the ruptured appendix is just a diagnoses, and they actually buried houdinis body before they had time to do an autopsy, so we really don't know the actual cause. and actually the appendix of his was on the other side then usual, so there is a lot of good evidence (i didn't mention all) that houdindi DIDN'T die from an appendix. sorry i feel very strongly about houdini and his legacy.,,...

  • When my Grandmother was in the hospital she would try to escape her room and so the doctors had to put her in a strait jacket, 2 hours later she was standing at the door and the strait jacket was on the bed. no one knows how she got out but she did. R.I .P Grandma

  • ur rite at 0:36 he did hav a cat on his head lol

  • whats this movie called?

  • A Claasic !

  • RIP

    what do u think happens after we die?

    Since we are talking about death watch "are you a good person?" on my channel

  • From what movie is this?

  • @ 0:32 haha you can actually see that the guy under... has his pants crack :)) hahaha...........

  • im doing a report on houdini for school :( BUT THIS IS COOL

  • woah he was a hunk

  • whats with the disco ball?

  • @dudealishes, that was just a prism ball on the chandler, and he focused on it because it helped him concentrate

  • is this really him?

  • CREEPY FACE 1:02

  • He had to dislocate his shoulder to get out of that

    which I assure you is very hard to do without fainting

    Not Tony Curtis I mean Houdini

  • @GrumpyFarmerBill

    nope. he didn't.

    It's just a rumor (he made up himself) to make him seen more awesome

  • Tony Curtis performed most of his own tricks in this film.

  • Happy trails Tony. Thanks for the amazing body of work you gave to so many!

  • Hommage à un grand acteur ! <3

  • They don't make like Tony anymore in Hollywood.

    A TRUE MOVIE STAR.

    RIP TONY

  • Oh no! :( First Michael Jackson, now Tony Curtis. Why are all the men I'm in love with dying?! Love you Tony! I'm so sad I never got to meet you!

  • au revoir, je t'aimais tu m'as fait souvent rire adieu ,bon vent;o)

  • R.I.P. Que gran actor!

  • Rest in peace Tony!

  • did u know when u sweat you body is easier to get out of tight space because its becoming lubricated

  • @dimitrizeman100 Actually it's done by having the ability to dislocate one's shoulders.

  • @HunterMann u dont have to be able to dislocate it

  • @dimitrizeman100 I am basing my knowledge on the summer I spent touring with a big circus that had a few escape artists.

  • what's the name of this movie?

  • @dicaspsa The movie is Houdini

  • Tony Curtis looks NOTHING like Harry Houdini )=

  • God, what a great scene. The direction, the music, of course the acting...it's simply perfect.

  • MAGIC MAgic magic magic....

  • I can see focus of us Pro poker Players--during the World Series of Poker--Tony Curtis had it DEAD ON THE MARK--

  • Because of this movie, SOOOO many people think that Houdini died in his water torture cell! Which is NOT true... I think that possibly the Spiritualists against him (as he was exposing them) poisoned/killed him.

  • Loved this movie!  Tony Curtis, the great one.

  • always loved that scene.

    where can i get a strait jaket like that?

  • @magicienhulio thing

    Speak English or go away nobody knows what ur saying

  • @WhiteStripeBoys Great asshole!! Let me tell you this in your language.... fuck off!!! do you understand now????

  • @WhiteStripeBoys 

    L O L

    you're some caveman ,right¿

  • What`s the name of the movie?

  • better hope houdini never goes crazy

  • It's straight jacket time for you Houdini. LOL

  • superbe,venez voir aussi mes video...

  • wow see how they enjoyed controlling him at the begin, thats how they treat prisoners!

  • im not double jointed on me arms .......

  • ha ha 0:36 he has a cat on his head

  • @Ando733 hahahahaahahhahahahaha

  • @Ando733

    Haha yes he has! =D

  • @Ando733 lmfao

  • @Ando733 I thaught you meant the hat

  • @Ando733 LOL!!! XD

  • @Ando733 YEAH

  • i wonder what was the first 1 ,imute and 50 secs of this video was about

  • I never saw this before, but I've heard enough about it. I'll have to rent it now, if I can find it. I sure wish they'd make another updated one, featuring the rumor that he was a Govt. spy in his apre time. (I know--what spare time?) I'd like one of the following people to play him: Jonny Depp, Mark Walberg, or Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Maybe Robt Downey Jt. could play his Rabbi Father for some serio-comic effect.. They'd need a strong actor to play Harry's brother, though.

  • i hope im never put in a straight jacket...

  • One of the best movies ever.

  • Tony Curtis was soooooo beautiful in his day. Too bad he had to get old.

  • "Houdini" Tony Curtis & Janet Leigh !957.

  • wat movie is this

  • I'm pretty sure houdini struggled more than that! that's what made his shows interesting!

  • This movie was amazing =)

  • The real Houdini was quite the performer.

  • FUCK

  • as always amazing

  • NICE HAIR

  • Great spot , loved it , thanks

  • 99999 vevs o.O 99 ratings omg

  • 1 - The resemblance between Tony Curtis and Houdini is pretty remarkable.

    2 - This really happened. Harry Houdini was able to extend his arm by dislocating his own shoulders.

  • No way Tony is far better looking than Houdini was. Actually I think Tony's father looks quite similar to Houdini

  • thats not houdini is it? like i mean thats not really houdini its an actor, is it?

  • yes it is an actor the actor is tony curtis

  • Thanks for posting! My alltime favorite scene from the movie! I wanted to be a magician straightaway when I saw it as a kid.

  • what is name of this movie

  • This dude looks exactly like Micheal Waltrip.

  • I see the resemblence but Tony is too good looking to say they look exactly the same

  • HAHAAHAAHAHAH...."did he use the sweat to slip himself out?" HAHAHAHAHAH.....LOL

  • it's called THE classic Houdini movie of ALL time, you ignorant clod! ALL magicians have seen and love this! You can go kiss you grannys wrinkled old ass! Goof!

  • u would think if he moved he would sweat more like the poor bastards next to him .. my grannys wrinkled sweaty ass is more fun to watch than this

  • Then by all means, go and watch that then, dude.

  • yes he did and he is great magician in escapious!!!

  • did he use the sweat to slip himself out?

  • hahhahhaahaahahahahhahahahahah­a your comment cracked me up

  • wow!!!

  • Can you tell me which movie this is?

  • It's "Houdini" 1952.

    To OP: Thanks for posting, man. Great movie!

  • Fantastic movie and Tony Curtis to!!

  • what movie is this from

  • Also checkout "levi cox houdini" a 8 yr old brit escape artist

  • wow it's great to see the original movie

  • great movie

  • I loved the movie but i don't like how it ends is doesn't depict how houdini actualy died. Houdini didn't die in the water tank

  • houdini was killed by a montrealer who punched him in the stomach when he was unprepared.

  • Right you would be amazed how may people think that Houdini died in the water tank because of this movie.

  • HE COULDN'T ESCAPE THE FATE OF DEATH

  • What a stunning perfect man. One of the most good looking celebrities of all time. Second only to a young Michael Jackson

  • whats with staring at the spinning ball?

  • is this a movie because of the

    "Tony Curtis as Harry Houdini"

    thing

  • smart

  • My god!! He was sweating like hell!!!!!

    Theone disadvantage of a straitjacket is that it increases your body heat and may cause you to dehydrate........ WATER! WATER!!!

  • with that music i thought he was gonna draw a gun lol

  • AWSOMEEEE MAN!!!

  • DAMN HES GOOD! (not to mention goodlooking)

  • OMG

    he didnt evenwiggle at all

  • thats not good magic thats just good wigglin

  • It's not wigglin, it's a known fact that houdini use to dislocate his left shoulder to make it easy to get out of a straight jacket.

    you have to remember, houdini was not a magician like some people tghink, but he was an escape artist.

  • yeah what she said!

  • I'm a he pal not a she

  • sorry 'bout that dude

  • what he said!

  • is not about time, is about skill. ppl always think that ppl who are long before was very good and no one can overcome them, like no matter how hard u try u cant play piano than chopin, but that is wrong. we learn from past' experience and improve with time goes by, we shouldn't let 'time' decide who's the better ppl.

  • Tony Curtis was great in this movie.

  • Se sabe que un buen ilusionista sabes esconder bien sus elementos y juega con la distracción de los que observan, pero no es tan facil como suena jaja

  • ur exactly right

    i totally fall for it every time, they make the distractions SO subtle too to the point where when u think BACK on and and ur like OMG i didnt even see that haha

  • dude being sweaty would make it even harder because the fabric would stick to you, besides even if your theory was right dont you think crazies would be escaping left and right?

  • Lol Theres a book that shows how he gets out of the Straitjacket. He puts his Arms out when they put the StraitJacket and then....

    iforgot D=
