  1. I found a music video on YouTube entitled Harry Houdini. It shows a clip of Houdini tied with rope head to foot, kissing Bess and then be thrown into the water. Has anyone ever seen this clip before? I have not in all my years of Houdini interest. Has there ever been a listing of all the non movie Houdini film clips? It seems as if I see more and more of these as time goes by.

    1. Kissing Bess before he's thrown in? Not sure I've seen this. Do you have a direct link? Too much shows up on YouTube with a search for just "Harry Houdini".

  2. "Kon Kan Harry Houdini".....I've seen the clip of HH being thrown in and them swimming to the surface ropes in hand but never seeing him tied up kissing Bess. WHERE do these clips come from? I'm envisioning that there is a trove of clip never seen before sitting around someplace.

    1. I'll be darned. Thank you. Seeing it, I now believe I have seen that clip before, but I don't recall where. I will do a blog post about this (if you want to share your name, I will give you thanks). BTW, I have this album, but I've never heard the song. Very 80s.
