How 89-year-old magician Arthur Coghlan is keeping art of escapology alive | Australian Story
Australian Story steps inside the fantastical, the mind boggling and the sometimes terrifying world of magic and escapology with father and daughter duo Helen and Arthur Coghlan.
Arthur’s death-defying escapes in the 1970s earned him the title of Australia’s Houdini. And he admits there were times he took it a little too far.
At the age of 89 he reveals how close he came to death on live television and his apprehension when daughter Helen followed him into the world of magic.
After a long hiatus, Arthur and Helen are enjoying a career renaissance on the US television show Penn and Teller Fool Us, and their magical prowess is receiving global recognition.
