HOUDINI'S DEATH IN DETROIT 1926

Harry Houdini died on October 31, 1926, at age 52 from peritonitis caused by a ruptured appendix. The rupture was likely triggered by unexpected, heavy punches to his abdomen from a student in Montreal on Oct 22. The student asked if it was true that hits to the stomach did not hurt Houdini. Before Houdini could brace himself, the student struck him multiple times in the abdomen. Ignoring the pain, Houdini continued performing for days, causing his condition to worsen into fatal sepsis.
