Harry Houdini accepted all kinds of challenges.One time he had himself buried under 4 ft of earth with his head covered with a black hood.But this was a stunt he chose to never repeat,for there was not much air,and it caused panic to rise inside him.Another time Harry had an idea of a strait jacket escape.He hung upside down three stories above the street from his ankles,laced in a strait jacket.Then the long sleeves,which covered his hands,were tightly tied,pulled to the back,and buckled firmly.People thought it was impossible but there were wild cheers when Harry suddenly jerked the strait jacket over his head and tossed it into the crowd in 2 min.The great milk can escape was a trick that entertained people everyday.Harry would jump into a big milk can filled with water in a bathing suit.The lid would be fastened tightly until he escaped.And in 3 & a half min Harry would be standing,and the locks still in place on the milk can.The fourth most dangerous trick was when Harry was balanced shakily on the wing tip of 1 of the biplanes.2 planes were flying into each other,and Harry planned to jump from 1 to the other.But the 2 planes crashed,and landed in a

swamp.Luckily,Harry emerged out of the swamp like a swamp monster but safe.

Harry felt that the most dangerous escape were escapes from locked safes.A safe had little space,and if he made a mistake and jammed the lock,it would be necessary to dynamite the safe in order to get Harry out.Even though the escape only took him 2 or 3 min,he waited 45 min until he came out.The last 40

min he would read a book.Harry Houdini continued to remain in great demand

until the day of his death at the age of 52.

P.S.I am 9 years old.The only reason I am answering the question is because I am doing a report on Harry Houdini.Oh,and I only wrote 5 of the most dangerous things Harry ever did because if I wrote 10,it would take a whole

page.Hope it was helpful for you!

Why was Harry Houdini important?

Harry Houdini was famous because he performed his own stunts and showed his real magic to the world. Also, became very good at what he did because he was in circuses as a young child which added to him being the most famous magician around. Or should I say "The Escape Artist" since he didn't like to be called a magician. He liked to be called this because he could escape.
