THE GREAT PERFORMANCE OF AKASH AT HARBOUR – THE UNDER WATER ESCAPE

I arrange my schedules to have time to watch magic shows of all big Magicians. Mr. Anand’s son Akash’s magic shows are being showcased in Thiruvananthpuram these days.

On 1st Oct the biggest event was performed at Vizhinjam Harbour, “The Under Water Escape” was performed by Akash. Harbour was full of people. I saw there many VIP person of Vizhinjam, like Kovalam MLA George Mercier, Southern Range IG Arun Kumar Sinha, Police Commissioner Revatha Chandrasekhar, ICGS Vizhinjam CO PK Mishra, Vizhinjam Panchayat President Latha Sugathan and etc.

The harbour is 20km from the city and the crowd of the people had come all the way to see Akash. He was handcuffed by the MLA and he doubled checked it to ensure it is really strong and well-locked by chains and locks. The people who had stood in the hot for hours and had still remained very patient. Akash reached in front of crowd and tired to wave at them with all the chains.

Akash was taken back to the bag and sat in the bag then, the Commissioner tied and sealed the bag. The bag, with Akash inside , was carried over to the box and dropped inside it. The box was locked, chained and tied with chains and ropes. It was then attached to a crane aboard a large boat and carried about 100 meters in the sea, where the depth was approx. 150 feet. The crane was lowered and the box was submerged in the Indian Ocean waters. The silence during these few minutes was very loud!! Just during those moments, a number of motorboats rented out for media people started racing all over the harbour.

It was a beautiful scene, kind of like a whole series of Water Sports suddenly starting all over the place. Cameras were trying to get close to where the box was submerged, so that they could get an exclusive bite of Akash surfacing out of the box and the waters.

A large boat-free spot and Akash surfaced 15 feet away from the box. An inflated motorized rubber boat came around Akash to pick him out of the waters. Akash swam to it and went aboard.

The boat took him around near the spectators where we can see him properly People wanted to Akash on the jetty and media wanted to interview him on the boats themselves

The box was brought over too, and opened. All the chains and locks and handcuffs were found intact and locked as before. The bag was found tied up as before and the box was in one piece too.

And AKASH was infront of Us….
