    The reason he exposed spiritualists and side-show performers was because they deceive the audience by not telling them it’s a trick. A magician tells you that they’re lying to you, and then they do the trick. The side-show performers tell you that they have superhuman/supernatural abilities when they really don’t.

    Fun fact! Arthur Conan Doyle would have HATED to be called "the author of Sherlock Holmes" because he actually wanted to be known for his romance novels, which were poorly received and actually quite bad. He even tried to end the series by killing Sherlock, but the British masses were extremely upset by it. People genuinely mourned the character and took to wearing black arm bands as a symbol of mourning and protest of his death. Ultimately Doyle caved and brought Sherlock back to life

    Ryan missed the point there, Houdini didn't go after every side-show magician, he went after only the ones who claimed they are doing miracles.
    Houdini believed tricks are meant for entertainment, not for luring vulnerable people and making money out of them.

    • @ipshitakanungo3025
      @ipshitakanungo3025 3 года назад +227

      I agree. Ig Ryan confused it with him trying to get revenge or something, which wasn't true. He himself proclaimed that all he did was trick, nd said the same for every other person doing it. I agree with Houdini tbh. Plus he exposing the side tricks is his choice. As Shane said, if someone has th power to do that to him, they can do it, Houdini never stopped them from doing that...

    • @chrisbennett6236
      @chrisbennett6236 2 года назад +56

      Houdini was active against con men and charlatans prior to the Doyles stunt, however he did go on a vendetta to prove ALL spiritualism was fake and no more supernatural than anything he did. But there's nothing to suggest that he went after the people who considered themselves entertainers and didn't claim to be supernatural.
      His crusade is largely why people nowadays don't believe in clairvoyants, mediums, psychics and anyone else that claim supernatural abilities. That crusade and it's result is the definition of vendetta. So Ryan is right about the vendetta but he's wrong that he went after every entertainer.

    For postmortem: Hi, med student here. I imagine most people when punching someone's stomach would go for the belly button (umbilical) area or epigastric area, while the appendix is located in the lower right (right iliac) area. While the punch is unlikely to cause the appendicitis, it's likely that it aggravated the already preexisting appendicitis, causing it to burst. A burst appendicitis is always a worse prognosis, because the bacteria spreads easily in the abdominal cavity, causing other complications. Especially in Houdini's case where he postponed treatment for hours while possibly putting his body under more stress by doing his tricks, it's possible the infection had already entered his bloodstream and was too spread out that he didn't survive. I personally believe there wasn't any murder involved, simply a series of unfortunate events that ended with his untimely demise.

    Whitehead wasn't just randomly trying to punch him. Houdini had a famous act where he'd allow members of the audience to hit him, and he wouldn't even flinch. He'd tighten his muscles and flex in such a way that it didn't really effect him.
    So that's what that was likely about.

    Doctor over here. I've never seen appendicitis caused by a trauma, nor is there a "spot" where you hit that can cause appendicitis. It is simply the disruption of the normal flora of bacteria in the appendix causing inflammation. I suspect he had ruptured appendicitis, which has a higher rate of sepsis than the common appendicitis and it did not help that he did not pursue surgery immediately.

      Good question, I'm not sure how people dealt with ruptured appendix in the past before there was surgery. However, it's important to note that there are many diseases that used to be death sentences (people had very short life expentancies back then) but now have an effective cure, a perfect example of this is tuberculosis.

      As I am not a doctor, I only *think* this makes sense.. so I'd be really interested in hearing your opinion on this:
      Isn't it plausible, that Houdini was killed not by a punch to his appendix, but by a punch to his liver? Especially, say-- if he did have underlying appendicitis that had caused a liver abscess, and the punch then had caused to burst?
      It's well documented that: a) the liver is easily injured with blunt force blows to the abdomen and b) a ruptured liver abscess would cause sepsis and lead to death. And because he never had an autopsy performed could this not be a possibility that wasn't ruled out?

  • @TheSaneHatter

    A rather obvious possibility seems to have been overlooked: while being punched in the stomach is not likely to *cause* appendicitis, surely that could *worsen* it?
    It could have been a matter of bad timing: maybe Houdini had an undiagnosed case of appendicitis, overlooked because he wasn't symptomatic yet, and then this baboon punches him in the stomach, and sends the condition into overdrive.

    • @EmeeStacy
      @EmeeStacy 4 года назад +11

      I’d think it probably could make it worse. It would at least make the pain worse. You can actually test if it’s appendicitis by pressing hard on the main point of pain for a few seconds, and if it hurts worse when you release it’s your appendix. Also I’d assume if an organ is already ruptured or rupturing and you hit it REALLY hard multiple times it would probably get worse.

    Postmortem: I remember learning about appendicitis back in college. Once it bursts, it sends the infection into your abdominal cavity and the chance of septicemia would have been quite high. And since it was still another 2 years before antibiotics were even discovered, he was pretty much doomed since he waited so long. This case is pretty much an open and shut one for me, even if some people still want to debate it.
    So glad you guys are back and Happy Halloween🎃

      @@hunterwhite4544 The different realities thing is a theory to try and explain the Mandela Effect. The Mandela Effect is literally just a term for when you misremember something. It’s a real phenomenon.

      While the misinformation effect is real, outside of psychology most people know the Mandela Effect as a wacky theory about alternate realities. The term “Mandela Effect” itself was coin by a self proclaimed paranormal consultant, which is mentioned in almost every article on the subject. It has its own section in the Wikipedia page on the topic.
      If you google “Mandela effect”, almost every article that shows up will mention the conspiracy theory and disprove it by explaining the science behind it. That’s clearly what Hunter White was trying to say, so there really was no need to be nasty about it.

      He converted after he created Holmes though, and his other lowkey famous character professor Challenger's last story was about spiritualism. Doyle sorta liked science AND supernatural.
