Aaron Radatz to Perform Wild Escape
The Valdosta Daily Times of beautiful Valdosta, Georgia went all out in its coverage of Aaron Radatz participation in the town’s Wild Adventures All-American Weekend.
Mr. Radatz told the reporter he is kicking it old school. Actually, that is our interpretation of his quote. ”This is a straight-forward Houdini-style escape,” Mr. Radatz said. “Some contemporary magicians use steel boxes and other materials. But I like it old school, using wooden crates like Houdini used to use.”
And like Houdini, Mr. Radatz’ restraints will not consist solely of a chained box submerged in the Wild Adventures Lake.
Mr. Radatz will confound his efforts to escape the crate.
He intends to be chained and handcuffed within the box before being dropped into the Lake.
Officials have ensured that the crate will sink quickly by drilling holes to allow water to replace the limited air space in the box.
Mr. Radatz noted that when Houdini performed the escape, it was a test of the Showman’s ability to escape quickly from one restraint.
