I think that Harry houdini became a famous entertainer because in the days that he made his shows people wanted to see the impossible become possible.

I think that Houdini would not be as popular as an actor because they liked him for being able to do things others couldn't.So being an actor wouldn't be the same because they would have been saying anyone can act like that.But no one could escape from jails or handcuffs.He was popular for things that people thought were really cool.

Houdini got famous because he did tricks that look impossible and scary to see a human being could do. Also he got more famous because he was in a movie. What Houdini did illusion to look imposible to the human being eye, it look impossible because this was in 1874 they didn't have technology so they thought this look impossible. And how Houdini stayed famous by doing stuff that his copy cat try to do. And he was doing this because people wanted to be him so he had to outsmart the other catfish/ copy cats. So what his trick was Milk can escape and it was to hold his breath under milk. And the people were confused because he was holding his breath for two minutes and 45 second almost making it at three.

The great Harry Houdini was a good entertainer because many people came to watch his magic acts. Several people think that there was ghost helping him.
