COWES Week crowds were wowed by a death defying stunt which saw a young escape artist dangle 40ft above them trying to wriggle out of a straitjacket.
Magician Aaron Isted also had to contend with the rope suspending him above the crowds being set on fire. The stunt took place in the main arena at Cowes Yacht Haven.
