"I'm not concerned about the health risks, it's Art" i think he should see if he could survive a shotgun blast to the face |

Oddly I'm not concerned about the health risks to him either...so I have something in common with David Blaine which is nice... |

why is he up there? what's the point? he should go back to just floating a few centimetres above the pavement. that was a good trick. |

He reckons that no man has managed to live without food and with sensory deprevation for 44 days and 44 nights, living just on water. So he climbed into a box to show how good he is. When he finishes he is planning to step out of the box and walk across the Thames to the shore where he will feed the audience with loaves and fishes. |

Am I the only one here who really likes the guy!? |

i think his card tricks are pretty neat, but i'd like to see him levitate in my front room before i beleve that |
||||||||

He admitted that the levitation that you see on TV is staged. There was actually a show where he told everyone how he did some of his tricks, including the levitation one, which is just standing at an angle and using one foot to lift the other leg off the ground. But for the TV footage they refilmed the close up using a crane. |

Yeah if you're wearing the right shoes in the right lighting that can look really convincing - But yeah, they edit on an extra bit for TV where he really is getting hoisted up... Also, with a lot of his tricks he just films them over and over until he gets them right. Like the fake ESP tricks and things. I still love watching Blaine even though his magic tricks are pretty easy to see through when you realise how he works. There's that really good British magician/psychologist guy who's gonna play real live russian roulette on TV soon - That guy is great! Less of a magician, but can totally get inside ppl's minds! Can't remember his name though! |

i heard today that people were using laser pens on him, and he thought he was gonna get shot. Haha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
There's stuff in his water, for sure. And probably a few mars bars in his sleeping bag. I like the Bo Selecta version where he's a pervert with a dodgy new york accent |

Derren Brown u mean? channel4 wont show a man shooting himself, so he obviously wont be ni any danger. *feels too cynical* |

What about 44 days and 44 nights...in a house full of monkeies, and my dead grandfather's best friend? Shall i repeat it for you again? As i'm sure you didn't hear it the first time |

blaine is kinda up his ass in pretentiousness, but, like all good magicians, he knows how to do entertain and perform bloody well. when i finally realised magic wasnt "real" -*ahem*- all a magician is is an entertainer, but one who looks cool rather than tells jokes about the mother in law. |
||||||||

I haven't spoken to my mother in law for two years, I can't get a word in. Take my wife...etc. Blaines 'impossible feat' was done 20 years ago by the IRA hunger strikers, they managed 59 days, I'm with Tony Montana the burger seller on this one. |

I say we should all encourage him to strive for ever more exciting and hair-raisingly artistic feats of courage, and then, maybe, just maybe, one of them will fucking kill him. Or maybe his next stunt could be to sit on top of the Eiffel Tower without food or water for 10 years. Out of the bastard way. I'm willing to bet he won't be surviving the "sit on my couch for five minutes" stunt. |

Yeah Derren Brown! That guy's great! His show always amazes me... He's like the thinking man's David Blaine. |
||||||||

He'll be dead soon |
