The Houdini Jacket is far beyond the Posey, which was made to adhere to humane requirements.
The Houdini Jacket was made long before the Posey, which is the absolute standard for any Guinness World Record attempt.
It's better used in photos, and I believe we'll see interest in the jacket leading to interest in Beta-Blockers. I plan to use it only a few times, and keep it on display as a reputation-builder. I would not want to destroy this jacket - it has too much historical value and audience draw appeal.
The Houdini Jacket is in good condition, but the straps are leather, and are ready to disintegrate under heavy repeated stress.
Here are my reasons for altering that first intent: My original intention was to perform a standard escape from this jacket.
