Hanging with Houdini
I just created a dedicated page listing of ALL the Houdini suspended straitjacket escapes that I've been able to so far uncover (52). When I eventually produce a printed version of my chronology, listings such as this will appear as an appendix. But I know this list can't be complete, so if anyone knows of an escape that slipped past me, please give a shout! Click below to view:

Great work! Looking forward to adding the printed version to my library.

When it will appear I have no idea as I am still adding to it almost daily. But it will be worth the wait I hope!
DeleteThis is wonderful information to have and thank you for sharing it. I also will want to buy your chronology when it's printed. Funny how I often couldn't be bothered with dates and details when I first started researching Houdini years ago, and now I crave every bit of information that's uncovered.
ReplyDeleteTo me chronology is key. I feel like I've learned more about Houdini in the past year of working on this than I have in 40 years of reading books.
DeleteThis is fantastic. Another road map time line to put it all in perspective. Put me down as well for an order of the printed version. I await with bated breath the next chronology segment reveal! --Dale
