Houdini in Russia

He ruined that amazing trick by following up with the punch. It totally took away from the moment

If people were easy to fool by magic tricks then this was a piece of cake by jesus back then

Rasputin laughting in the corner about this clown🤭

Movie name??

Rasputin : wtf the fuck im i just witness
After the bell rang : oh shit its real deal

Rasputin was jealous Houdini was a better trickster than him

)it is interesting that Rasputin was right about houdini &co.

The scene from the movie is incomplete here, but in the full scene:

1. Houdini was in Russia from May and summer of 1903 (and it's snowing in the film), and the royal family was in Moscow on March 29-April 16, 1903 (came for Easter).
2. Anastasia was only 2 years old in 1903, and Alexey was not born at all, he was born already when the Russian-Japanese war was going on (August 1904), and he visited Moscow for the first time only in 1912. Rasputin met the tsar for the first time only in 1905.
3. The interior of the room is poor for the Kremlin Palace and does not even look like a boudoir, in addition, there are no apartments on this (eastern) side of the palace, there is a huge St. George's Hall (outside it is the 2nd and 3rd floors) with windows in two rows and Houdini looks out of the window of the upper row (that is, hanging in the hall in the air). The view from the window of the palace was taken from another point, possibly from the cathedral.
4. The Emperor says that the bells have not rung for a hundred years, but they rang beautifully 7 years ago during his coronation in 1896, as well as the coronation of 1883. They generally called always and without interruption.
5. The trick with the "wish" could be exposed right on the spot if family members asked each other which of them made this wish.
6. Nicholas crosses himself with all his fingers :-) (instead of three as Orthodox)
6. There was never any huge building from which Houdini's assistant allegedly shot at this place.

And- the cherry on the cake (more precisely, watermelon on the cake)
An assistant shakes a bell weighing 65 tons (this is a German Tiger II tank) with a rifle shot :-)

What is the movie called

Czar Nicholas sounds like Yakov Smirnoff.

Sadly, they will all be dead in a few years, then the Communists will spend the next 80 years starving, beating, and “disappearing” their citizens. As you can tell, I’m fun at parties.

Is that rasputin?

I like that there is this mini rivalry between Ras and Houdini.

I love how rasputin is in this

I've watched that Rasputin fella if I was the king of Russia.

Rasputin, the rasputin? Rasputin the lover of the russian queen? The cat that really was gone?

A shot. Hahaha

They got Rasputin down

The show must go on.

This is where one of them says "Who wrote that one?" and everybody says "Not me."

What movienis this

For those who haven’t seen this, in the next scene, it’s revealed that he had an accomplice across the plaza that was shooting at the bell with a rifle. The gunman timed his shots when Anastasia pulled the rope.

"If magic were easy, Your Majesty, every fool would be doing it."
Such a jab- and completely true- at a purported 'mystic'.

Rasputin kill a magician thats cool

Not even the mystic rasputin could figure it out. And it was a parlour trick nonetheless.

Film name?

I want this but in the Harry Potter's Universe

To everyone debating whether this story is true;

Why let facts ruin a good story.

Дурочек Николай 2:)

Lol credibility low .....(for punch in stomach..) Grigori Rasputin was able to break massive wood table..just with a slap...(open Hand a hand LONGER THAN MARK FELIX...OR SONNY LISTON ) concentrate mental..ok but limits exists.... even with anti trauma Bullet proof vest i never idea to provok a Russian Giant......(1m93 /2m03 6'4" /6'8" accorfing to the sources....) but the most f bone frame of history....attest by autopsy..

I always love this scene the last Russian royal family always fascinate me and I love they’re early 1900s aesthetics look.

What's the name of this movie

What is the movie called

Did this really happen or did they just invent this story for the movie (or series)???

Rasputin

Sadly this never happened as yes Houdini did tour Russia in 1903 and met the royal family Rasputin was not present as he did not actually meet the royal family until 1905, I've not seen any record of the bells being ringing by Houdini though I do believe he did perform for the royal family.

Ned stark isn't impressed with Luca Changretta

What did the woman say?

Rasputin 😁😁

Hands down best tv series I’ve ever seen

I just wish you'd included the following scene,in which it's explained as to how Houdini managed to do that.

Anyone know where to find full series?

А почему в Москве, а не в Петербурге???

What happened when he punched him, like what did it mean when it showed inside

Someone please get me the full series

Thanks :D

Thanks for uploading this! My fav scene in the film
