This is Harry…as in Houdini

 

Harry is a master escape artist. 

Did you know that fish have a natural escape response when they are startled or feel threatened.

 

They contract their muscle fiber until their body makes a 

C- shape followed by a burst of accelerated swimming.

 

There is a museum dedicated to Houdini in my hometown of Scranton, PA, filled with the most extensive collection of Houdini memorabilia.  Dorothy Dietrich runs the tour and  is also a master escape artist and magician. She has duplicated many of Houdini's original escapes and is also known for her Bullet Catch Stunt, one that the Great Houdini himself would not attempt. 

 

If you have the opportunity…it does not disappoint.
