Jack Houdini?

Bill Mullins at the Genii forum has discovered stock footage of a man named Jack Houdini -- said to be the "cousin of the great magician" -- releasing himself from chains and padlocks in a swimming pool in 1935. Interesting stuff, but I don't know Jack! Do you?

    After watching the newsreel, it's obvious why Jack didn't go anywhere. :)

    I hope he didn't quit his day job.

    Looks like those around the pool are laughing at him.
