There is much speculation about the death of Houdini. Many of the detail remain mysterious. I hope you enjoy this look into the possibilities.\r

A special thanks to Mike Chang of SixPackShortcuts for letting me punch him in the gut as hard as I could. Check his stuff out: \r
Did I mention HE LET ME PUNCH HIM AS HARD AS I COULD?\r

A big thank you to Ben Eells who responded to my call for help on Facebook and spent both a Saturday and a Sunday to shoot footage of Houdinis grave for us. He originally went on Saturday but the graveyard was closed for the Sabbath. I didnt know that! Im getting Smarter Every Day I guess. \r

Instead of saving for my kids college, I make videos using the money I would have saved.\r
The thought is it will help educate the world as a whole, and one day generate enough revenue to pay for their education. Until then if you appreciate what youve learned in this video and the effort that went in to it, please SHARE THE VIDEO!\r
