Soon he extended his repertoire to include chains, ropes slung from skyscrapers, straitjackets under water, and having to escape from and hold his breath inside a sealed milk can with water in it. In 1904, thousands watched as Houdini tried to escape from special handcuffs commissioned by London's ''Daily Mirror'', keeping them in suspense for an hour.

Comedy Bang! Bang! (TV Series)

Bang!'', which airs on the Earwolf network. Like the podcast, the series featured outlandish and farcical humor, often delivered in a deadpan manner.

Bang!'' halfway through the fourth season, and a few weeks later was offered the job of bandleader for '' The Late Late Show with James Corden''.
