The Escape Explosion

A How did they do that? The Escape Explosion kicks off with a bit of comedy and a little magic, as crowds gather to see our escape artist trio attempt a classic Whiskey Barrel Escape. Things get more serious and more mysterious as they move into an explosive whip cracking performance straight out of the Wild West. Then, in a grand finale conclusion, one of our devious daredevils flirts with death, working to outsmart a strait jacket while suspended upside-down by the ankles from a three-story aerial rigging. Escape Explosion runs approximately 20 minutes.
