Those legs could totally crack a walnut, could they not?? :D I don't think I could take these videos if they had sound. I can't even imagine the level of awesomeness that would add to already awesome videos.

The middle board, the one his arm reaches through pulls inside of the crate. He slips out the missing plank area between the ropes and pulls it back into place once outside.

Probably he did have a bandage on his wrist

The sequence from 2:52 to 3:22 seems unrelated- apparently from a different event or from cinematic footage. The box underwater lacks the affixed cylinders of pig iron seen above water, and the arms that reach out from the box have shirt sleeves even though he entered the crate with arms bare.

Correct, that footage is actually from his movie, The Master Mystery.

He probably escaped from under the box while they were tying it and he waited under the bridge and he would swim to where the box was lowered

Somehow other footage got put in there because he's wearing a shirt but I'm not sure about underwater filming

They could film "underwater" by filming through a glass window in a compartment placed under water.

So this video has been edited by his brother therefore... isn't a real escape well it isn't cause he is a "magician/trickster"

He was likely out of the shackles before the box was even lifted into the air, and I suspect the bottom of the crate was rigged to allow him to easily lift it up from inside.
