Dean Gunnarson likes to say he's escaped from the RCMP more than anyone else alive, but not for the usual reasons.
Handcuffs are easy for Gunnarson, an internationally known escape artist, so he has to try a little harder, and in Prince Albert tonight he'll try an escape he's never done before.
First he will be handcuffed and wrapped in chains with a padlock around his neck. Then he's dumped in a trashcan sized tank of water, a lid is placed on top and chained down, with a padlock on the outside.
"There's no curtains, no smoke, no mirrors. Nothing," he said, relaxing on a set of bleachers at the Prince Albert exhibition Tuesday afternoon before his show.
The show begins at 8 p.m. in the red and white entertainment tent.
For more information and to find out how he does, pick up Wednesday's Herald.
