Damn, people are harsh....wanting him to die and all.

BTW, did anyone catch the commericial he shot with Kobe? He's in the locker room with Kobe and challenges Kobe to "no breathing contest" :lol Of course he wins...

This guy is more of a preformance artist than anything. I wouldn't necessarily blend his street magic and stunts together. As far as I am concerned, they are two seperate things.

That being said, I think he is great, and I am deffinately watching.

if you think david blaine's street magic is in any way "awesome" then you really need to watch this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w47NC0MNWMY&search=david%20levitation).

That is about 6 more minutes than I could do.

He shouldnt be able to stand at all if he really was in the water for 8 days. Think about when you are in the water for a couple of hours your legs are weak.

I wish he had hit the 9 minute mark but still...7 minutes, 9 seconds! I can't hold my breath that long.

greyforest

he was doing this after breathing from an oxygen tank correct?

the record for holding your breath after breathing from an oxygen tank isn't 9 minutes its about 14 minutes. the record for holding your breath after breathing normal air is 9 minutes.

either way, permanent brain damage from oxygen deprivation occurs after 4 minutes for breathing normal air, so guess blaine is more stupider now :P

Sonia_TX
05-08-2006, 10:14 PM
He wasn't breathing from the tank right before he went under the water. He was only using the tank about 10 minutes before but for the past week...I don't know if that matters or not to determine 14 mins or 9 mins...

It wasn't live because they bleeped him when he got off the ladder and got near the medical tent.

I knew it would be on a slight delay just incase the worst happened. No way they'd really let us watch him die.

everyone knows magic is an illusion but I still think it is cool.

did you watch my video?

what he does is stand at an angle and go on tippie toes to get film of people going OOH AHH

then after they leave they get a GODDAMN CRANE and hoist him up and film that.

do you think those people would OOH and AHH at him getting lifted by a crane? fuck no, thats why he has to LIE to you by editing his shit!


phony bullshit. and looks like this pussy only hit 7 minutes too, hope he suffered some brain damage.

It's called MAGIC. They are SUPPOSED to trick you. :lol

What, do you really expect this guy to levitate? And by that logic, do you really expect him to read your mind or put a cigarette through a quarter or change the card in your hand without touching it? :lmao

I had no interest in watching any of the crap but I accidentally turned the channel on to it at about 8:15 and got hooked. It was actually quite amazing. The whole thing really was an amazing feat of human endurance. This wasn't at all about magic. As he said, it was about testing his limits. He certainly did that. They showed his training with the navy seals before he did this week long stay in the tank. They had to put boots and gloves on him before they could put the chains on him because they were worried the chains would rip off his skin after all that time in water. You should have seen his hands and feet....nasty. Before he began his time breath holding his head came out of the water for about ten minutes and took in regular air. When he began his time he went into this weird trance like state. It was pretty cool. After about 4 minutes is when he finally came out of the trance and began trying to unlock the chains. When he started having trouble with the second set of arm chains is when he stressed out and began blowing bubbles and losing all the air in his lungs. That's when the divers rushed in and rescued him. The doctors didn't think he would be able to stand or walk. He amazed everyone although he was very shaky. When they pulled him out his whole upper torso was kind of spasming. It was really weird but cool.

Interesting that you would say he's "more stupider" ... how long have you been holding your breath?

One time I was at 130 feet deep at Medina Dam. We where doing deep water training. You look up and can't see shit.. dark and cold.. ice cold. No hold yer breath... 1.. 2.. 3.. (being silly it's like you would die down there even trying shit like that). Anyway I have seen divers turn purple, had to CPR a drowing kid once etc.

I just don't see the point in trying to kill yourself :) How much money do you think Blaine made? millions?... lol

Duff McCartney
05-09-2006, 12:55 PM
He probably didn't make anything. But that was amazing to see. I saw that they showed clips of some free diver chick that died. It was weird...she died because she didn't let the air out of her lungs slowly enough.

I think that's why she died.

uh, they are supposed to trick you, not lie to their audience by altering their video.

by YOUR logic, david copperfield could make the statue of liberty dissapear for about $100 in digital editing. whoopty-fucking-do!

i guess those photoshops that they use all the time on TNT with barkley's head on crap is all "MAGIC" too eh? WOW MAGIC!!!

Yea the gas will expand and your lungs POP.. it's ugly. She went crazy deep and pushed it. Brave but dead.
