Escape Artist Mom
Donna Purnell is a housewife by day and "Alexander The Great", as she has been nicknamed, by night. While locked inside a water tank her bands are tied together with chains and no source of air. So how did a housewife come to this? She was bored of course! At 49 years old she and her husband Bill began to explore Harry Houdini like escape plans as teenagers just as a hobby. The couple never thought about creating a performance out it until they ran into some money woes and fell victim to the recession. Unemployed, Donna needed to find work but still insisted on staying home with her children. For months she has been working with a strength and breathing coach. Her friends do not approve of her new public stunt but her children love the idea.
Her daughter said, "We would walk around the house and we'd see chains and handcuffs in places."
So what is the moral of this story? Donne and her family hope that this escape artist story will provide inspiration to everyone who is looking to be untied from what whatever their weakness may be.
