>The man known world wide as the most famous magician of all time, Harry Houdini,
was born March 24, 1874 in Budapest. Although Houdini often claimed to be born in
Appleton, Wisconsin, Houdini actually came to the United States when he was four
years old. In later years, in a magazine interview, Houdini said, "the greatest
escape I ever made was when I left Appleton, Wisconsin." Houdini's actual name
was Ehrich Weiss. > >On October 22, 1926, after a long lifetime of dangerous
feats, Houdini was in Montreal performing at the Princess Theater. In the
dressing room at the theater a young athlete from McGill University asked Houdini
if he could actually withstand punches to the stomach as he heard. Before Houdini
could prepare, the student began to punch the legendary magician in the
mid-section. Houdini did not know it but his appendix ruptured. Houdini did not
die in an escape or fail in some final escape, as many believe. The King of
Handcuffs died on October 31, 1926 of an inflammation of the abdominal lining, a
kind of internal gangrene. >
