Death-Defying Fourth of July Wild Adventures celebration includes magician's escape act By Johnna PinholsterHoles were drilled into the box to let it fill with water and to keep the box from collapsing inwards from water pressure.
Weights, totaling 300 pounds, were attached to the bottom of the box to help it sink. Once in the lake the countdown to Radatz’s escape began. Scuba divers stood on the platform’s ledge as the minutes ticked by, on call to help Radatz if needed. As the audience waited, Hart counted the minutes. Paramedics were on standby in case the performance did not go as planned. Just as Hart began to get worried for Radatz’s safety, he appeared out of the water to hearty cheers. The escape took Radatz two minutes and 31 seconds. Afterward the crowd was regaled with fireworks from Pyro Shows. Both the underwater escape and fireworks show will be performed again tonight at Wild Adventures.
