This pic is actually from "Houdini's 1914 New York "overboard box" escape off Battery Park. But you are correct that he also did the escape in 1912 off Governors Island. Not a big deal. This pic frequently gets misdated. Big fan, btw.

Looks like the engineer dude from Titantic. Also on Downton Abbey as patriarch. A ringer.

Can we try to get Trump to do this trick? Pleeease? Just say he's the best at it & it will be tremendous with the largest crowds ever, and he'll go for it. We can shout his accolades & clap while he performs the trick. And after his state "ceremony" we'll take our nation back.

Golly! People sure were mean back then! Had this Houdini guy committed some sort of heinous crime or did they just not like him?
