‘To do a Houdini’ is still used to describe remarkable feats of escapes, yet the great escapologist Harry Houdini was born 150 years ago.

In 1910, Houdini visited Australia for a 3 month sell-out tour. He also claimed the title of the first person to successfully fly a powered aircraft in Australia.

GUEST: Leann Richards, author of 'Houdini's Tour of Australia'.
