I heard about that story but didn't have all the details.
Thanks for this video, great job as always.

7:54 Seriously.. that knock on the door.. If you have headphones.. you're gonna jump!~

I always thought is death was an interesting story. But after researching it in depth for my own work, I must say that I'm sure at 100% that the Princess Theatre incident was definitely the cause of his death, not the pre-existing foot pain or any otherworldly event.
Nice edit, if I ever need a editor for my stuff, I know who to ask.

I have always been interested in Harry Houdini and the Art of magic in general it sure would have been something to have watched him perform live that would have been quite a spectacle

[BigfootDigger]

Shame the music on this was so loud it was difficult at times to hear the narration, shame it's a good video..

[Kyanzes]

I'm so disgusted by people who hit him randomly. Should have been put to prison. Disgusting.
