How Not to Catch a Bullet

Wednesday June 21, 2006
This article talks about the legendary Chung Ling Soo, who tragically lost his life performing the infamous bullet catch. The magician’s life has inspired an opera, "The Original Chinese Conjuror," which had its world premiere on Southwold Pier as part of the Aldeburgh Festival. If you want to read-up on Chung Ling Soo, be sure to check out Jim Steinmeyer’s excellent book, "The Glorious Deception."
