Thanks for mentioning this, Brody is great and Houdini is one of my favourite figures from the 20th century. In my opinion the best thing about Houdini wasn't his tricks or escapes, but his crusade against blatant frauds using tricks he easily had at his disposal to suck money from vulnerable people who were grieving.

I know alot of people will have very valid critiscms of him, but i think James Randi is a good successor, even though he's more like a poster boy nowadays. Randis exposal of Peter Popoff in particular should've amounted to more than it did, i've noticed more than one people say on this site and others that certain people give religion in this case Christianity a bad name and Popoff has to be near the top.

A few of Randis videos if anyones interested -


(this is just a short exerpt, if you want to see the full thing type in "Randi exposes Popoff")



(Another short part just type in "James randi Hydrick" for the full video)

Also a popular "psychic" who Randi always clashed with, the music is not right but it was the only decent copy of it i could find. -
