Jordy van Dipte | The Dutch Archeologist on Instagram: "Harry Houdini Escaped a Dutch Police Cell in 5 Minutes In January 1903, Harry Houdini pulled off one of his boldest publicity stunts in Amsterdam. Locked inside a real police cell near Rembrandtplein, shackled at hands and feet, wearing almost nothing, he escaped in just five minutes. Some called it genius. Others cried trickery. Either way, history was made. #houdini #amsterdamhistory #houdini #rembrandtplein #historytok"
