Hi Danny- Thanks for taking the time to post your views on the Water Torture. Houdini was truly an amazing person and a pioneer and adventurer on all accounts. If you get the time I highly recommend reading his Bio- there are some interesting stories about his life out in the market place. Cheers Tony

Brilliant trick i have a question how long have you been in the magic buisness ? and i am a BIG fan of houdini you are brilliant at this water cell you should have more publisity sorry for my bad spelling TonyLaffan

You should have your female assistant perform water escapes on her own as well.

[Hockeycraig15]

very impressive that you can do that

[Taylor1234576]

All these things you do amaze me, but how come you perform this trick behind a curtain?

@finalninjazeromaster -Sorry to disappoint you, but you are completely wrong on both accounts and couldn't be further from the truth. In the complete full live presentation the handcuffs are police issued by the local branch, supplied by a police officer there on the day. The lid is completely examined thoroughly before the escape in front of the audience and the padlocks are supplied by a local locksmith which is verified by him at the performance, & locked by independent security guards.
