the other thing I like about CA is that he does lots of things that are not magic tricks.....more like escape artist. For example, he was in a straight jacket being pulled on the back of a boat bouncing up and down on in the water and escapes.....or he is locked in a cage and his hands and feet are shackled. All he has is a little thing like a hair pin which he uses to pick the locks of the handcuffs and cage door. They drop the cage to the bottom of the ocean (not sure how deep buch probably about 20 feet) and you see him underwater using the pick to escape. He is just holding his breath when he does all this and escapes and swims to the top. No tricks, just great skill.
Then there was this other one where he sits in a chair and he gets 2 sailors to tie him up as much as they can onto the chair. SO they use this rope and go around and around tying his feet and torso and chest and hands to the chair......everything is snug as possible. Then he starts wiggling and escaping and frees himself in a few minutes. That may not sound impressive but I'd like to see anyone else do it. Imagine everything is wrapped so tight that you can only wiggle your hands alittle.
