Harry Houdini, born Eric Weiss, was renowned for feats such as walking through brick walls and escaping from bindings and enclosures. One of his more famous tricks was escaping after being buried alive in a bronze casket. For years, it has been rumored that Houdini took the secrets of his tricks to his grave.
