Dean Gunnarson is an Escape Artist without peer and an Inside Magic Favorite.
We have been following his exploits and insanity for almost a decade now.
There are two questions for which we do not need an answer: Why does he do it? How does he do it?
This Saturday, April 10, 2010, he will attempt an escape even the great Houdini found difficult and dangerous.
The show organizers plan to place the Canadian phenom in a keg of beer and seal it. As if this was not enough — and frankly, shouldn’t it be — Dean Gunnarson will be handcuffed.
He assures us he intends to escape in full-view of the audience.
“They’re going to take a metal drum, fill it full of beer, handcuff and chain me up, submerge me inside the drum and then lock the lid on with chains and padlocks from the outside,” he told the CBC for broadcast across the country. “The cool part is that I’m not going to use any smoke or any mirrors, or anything like that. People will be able to see the whole escape.”
Dean Gunnarson is a teetotaler. He tells us that he has never even tasted beer. We are guessing he does not begin drinking on Saturday.

The Prince Albert Daily Herald reports that we can stop worrying.
Dean Gunnarson survived to escape another day from one of the more dangerous escape stunts a trained expert can perform.
First, he was handcuffed and wrapped in chains, with a padlock around his neck.
Then, he was dumped in a 208-litre tank of water, with a lid placed on top and chained down, with a padlock on the outside.
He was able to escape in just under two minutes after cracking a combination padlock with water soaked fingertips.
Phew!

We have not yet seen the video but will be checking in at Dean’s incredible web site, Always Escaping for its release.
