Mac Norton (born Claude Louis Delair, 1876 - 1953) was a French magician billed as "The Human Aquarium". As a child, he developed the ability to swallow and then regurgitate small quantities of water. As an adult, he saw that other magicians were making a good living as regurgitators, so he developed his own act, learning to swallow great quantities of water and bread, and even live animals.
