    Hi Micheal and Jessica😁👏👏👌👍My sentiments exactly! We all live to make history as well as experience things of the present,.I love 💕 getting immersed in people places and things.It heightens senses,I love smelling old historical places., like a bloodhound,find it almost hypnotic.Living in a few different states growing up, the smells told me stories about people. The towns, cities and mountains.Being sensual in a good but magical way.So Thanks again, and relating w/pictures of Houdini and seeing the theater,and so adorable you both are together 💝

    LA has such a fascinating history.
    Those purple glass blocks on the street could mean there's an underground city below. In Seattle (my origin) those blocks are all over. They were used to let light in for the underground city. Really cool tour to take if you're ever in the Jet City! You gotta see the troll too... (if you haven't, a true local haunt)
    Reminds me, do you have a video or two with your background, former stomping grounds???

    Great video. I’ve always loved Harry Houdini. I had never heard that story before. Thanks for sharing it. Side note. A lot of times when you see that glass on the sidewalk, sometimes, there was an underground. That’s how light would get in below. If you haven’t, you should come to Seattle and do the underground tour. It’s really cool. They also filmed an episode of Night Stalker in it.

    I have a hardcover book on my shelf entitled Houdini - The Man Who Walked Through Walls by William Lindsay Gresham (pub. 1959) borrowed by my father from a public library in Oct/1960. Inadvertently it wasn't returned (long story)...and has since traveled all over Canada until it came into my possession several years ago. Coincidentally, my wife and I now live in the same small town where the book was originally borrowed all those years ago (62 years). One of these days we plan to return it to the local library - and a friend of mine is a staff reporter/photographer for the local newspaper so I'll give him a heads-up and see if he wants to cover it as a story for the local paper. Loved your video of the Houdini connection to the old Orpheum Theater - fascinating stuff.

    I moved to Hawaii over 30 years ago from SoCal, I was born not too far from this videos locale, at hospital of the Good Samaritan on Wilshire Blvd (about 2 years before RFK was taken there & died in the later 60’s) your love and enthusiasm for these history locations is awesome, just like your girl said. Please keep it comin’, it’s beautiful
    …and speaking of which- maybe you can do one about the Ambassador Hotel & when Bobby Kennedy was shot and Wilshire Blvd etc. talk about a bunch of history, man!

      You have to keep in mind when he pays for his tour he can be completely honest of his assessment. When you start asking for free bees you then come under some pressure sometimes to steer the narrative in a direction he may not have wanted to go. Remember, nothing in this world is free.

    i'm in my 60's. my mother was born in the 20's. when i was a kid and asked for something when she was busy the response was - "who do you think i am? Harry Houdini?" it seems to have been a common phrase in my parents' generation. another name thrown about was mandrake the magician. i thought they were all fictional characters.

  • @donl1846
    @donl1846 2 роки тому +1

    Houdini was the man for his time and had the gift of being able to manipulate his body to get out of all sorts of weird types of straightjackets, handcuffs etc. His end supposedly came by a young adult man after punching Houdini in the gut (per Houdini request) causing his appendix to shortly burst within a few days thereafter. I wish someone would buy the Orpheum and restore it to its full glory and resume concerts, plays or movies their. Thanks again guys.......

    Great video! Have you ever been to The Magic Castle? It was my dream since I was a kid! never thought I would be able to go but my husband made it happen for us, twice!! The best part was being allowed inside the “Houdini Chamber” where they practice seances, some to try to contact him. I know he was never physically there, but a lot of his actual artifacts and props are actually there. The room is filled with them, can’t help but feel in his presence when you’re there. I know they don’t allow filming in there but just for you guys to experience would be amazing. If you’ve already done it and mentioned it, my apologies.
    Thanks for always making great videos!! 🖤
