Your dad is referring to Houdini, the famous escape artist of the early twentieth century. Houdini, manacled, managed to escape from trunks thrown into the bottom of rivers, for example.

Houdini was a magician and an actor, but he was mostly known for his ability to escape just about any trap or confined space. He has escaped handcuffs, a Chinese Water Torture Cell, and a crate that was put in a river. It took him 57 seconds to escape, even with the restraints that were put on him.
