MARIETTA, OH, October 28 / -- Michael Griffin, America’s Escape Hero, and History’s only 2 Time Winner of TV’s World Magic Awards for Best Escape Artist (http://www.escapeguy.com) has run into something even he can’t get out of; the reality of reality TV. The World’s most honored living Escape Artist was scheduled to attempt an underwater trick of releasing himself from handcuffs, chains and a heavy cement cinder block Friday Oct 29 at the public dock located at Front and Post street in downtown Marietta Ohio as part of a FREE sneak peek of his show Sat night Oct. 30 in the famous Lafayette hotel at 8:00PM. Instead Mr Griffin has to be in Chicago for a last minute inescapable matter pertaining to his reality TV show.

About Michael Griffin
Performing astonishing escapes and setting records around the World for over two decades, 2-time World Magic Award Winning Master of Escape, Michael Griffin is considered the Greatest Living Escape Artist.
He is the ONLY escape artist to ever attempt and survive a thirteen-knot Hangman’s Noose in 52 seconds! He has also escaped from a solid steel hermetically sealed airtight casket with a submarine style hatch locking the outside. Griffin has also escaped from handcuffs, ropes, locks, leg irons and chains from a maximum-security jail cell, the ice-covered Ohio River and from the silty bottom of the Pacific Ocean. But the spectacular underwater escapes don’t end there! He has been shackled hand and foot with a 65-pound ball and chain wrapped tight around his neck and lowered headfirst by a crane to the bottom of a lagoon.
Griffin is the only escape artist granted permission to reenact Houdini’s 1912 death-defying underwater crate escape. He successfully escaped within 45 seconds after being bound, handcuffed and sealed inside Houdini’s 90 year-old original packing crate lowered into the depths of Florida’s hurricane-kissed Intercoastal waters…just 5 days before the 76th anniversary of Houdini’s death. And of course, Griffin put an additional spin on this by re-entering the crate again returning to the surface clutching the handcuffs taking the escape beyond the level of what Houdini did himself. What’s the secret? It’s Griffin’s strong mind, conviction, heart and belief system setting apart this distinguished performer from all others. “I do not use drugs or alcohol. I never have and I never will. I simply do not believe in their illusion, nor the illusion of negative thinking which is the toughest strait jacket we will ever face; but, if you put your mind to it, and you believe in yourself, you will always escape”

Sep 27, 2010 – Escape Artist Michael Griffin challenges LA County fairgoers to think outside the box, and possibly walk away with $1000.00 in their pockets.
Michael Griffin, America’s Escape Hero to appear and disappear Oct. 1-3 at the LA county fair Coca Cola stage, guarantees thrills, chills and jaws dropping.
POMONA, CA, SEPT. 27 / -- Michael Griffin, America’s Escape Hero and only Two Time Winner of TV’s World Magic Awards for Best Escape Artist (http://www.escapeguy.com) is offering his world wide challenge of $1,000.00 to anyone who can tie him up with rope preventing his escape Oct. 1-3 at the LA County Fair as part of his tour this summer.
Griffin, known for embracing life by tempting fate live on stage certainly has some tricks up his sleeve. So what makes America’s Escape Hero so different in a World of Same? Why do audiences flock to him? Originality, Michael is the only performer in the World that combines his intensely original magic with impossible escapes, audience interaction and the chance that at any performance someone could win the challenge.
Photo:
Dazzling and breathtaking as a performer, Michael takes supreme escapes to the extreme challenge in many forms including escaping water-filled sealed oil drums, the most complex police restraints and even mental hospitals. One of his most interesting on-stage challenges is an 1880s Navy Sea bag, most notably called the cloth coffin.
Forget typical straitjackets, handcuffs and ropes Griffin has taken passé escape concepts to an escalated level - into a new realm of risk in the art of escapology. What ordinarily would be a well-known handcuff escape Griffin adds the suffocating dare of having to escape from them inside a heavy airtight canvas sack, which is the most original escape today. Even the U.S. Government hasn’t been able to hold him in a real Postal Mailbag locked on the outside by a high security Government lock!
Griffin has also added his own twists to dangerous non-escapes, including the East Indian Needle Mystery - a jaw-dropping challenge in which he swallows 40 needles separate of some thread, having his mouth proved empty then, regurgitating the needles threaded along the entire eight-foot length.
“Sometimes I feel like a gunfighter in the old west, never knowing what’s coming my way, but never being able to let my guard down”, says Griffin.
Talks are even in the works for a possible reality-based escape program starring Griffin. The interactive program would allow viewers to call in or vote via the Internet for their escape choice during the show – and Griffin would then perform the chosen escape live on the show.
