I admit that I once stood seven hours outside a pub without food or drink, eagerly awaiting licencing hours returning back to the cylindrical 24-hour day cycle.
I haven't ever brought a dead pigeon to life though.

Wow what a cute stunt!

Or something that rhymes with that...

The guise of something honorable, or a good cause is what this "magic stunt" is about. It's ultimately about him. It's insulting to people who actually fast for honorable causes.

I agree. You can pay to see it live in the internet when he comes out of his box. I wonder where that money goes. Although, I have the "David Blaine channel" already on satellite TV, and I will be watching it when he comes out.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

Oh, I wouldn't, for valid reasons. But I understand why others throw food at him. If you're saying they're throwing anything else that might be dangerous, I haven't heard/read about it.

Supernova said:

Golf balls and some guy even tried 2 cut off his water supply.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

OK, now this is too much. I don't advocate trying to kill the guy. And although I'm not the type to throw food at people no matter what they're doing, in essence it's no different than an audience throwing food at a performer on stage they're underwhelmed by. Ask Prince.

Ewww!

No wonder U complain! Dont worry, we will have a lovely meal 2morrow.

Just came back, and it was a zoo. People all over the place and policemen wandering around looking lost, screaming at the random. David Blaine was so melodramatic about the whole thing - there was some fucking weird music playing and clips of interviews, like a soundtrack to his 44 days (I wonder if they will be selling it!!)

He had a microphone in his box and at one point he started crying though the crowd couldn't figure out what was going on. At first it sounded kinky, then it sounded like he had to use the toilet. Apparently they rushed him to a hospital straight away.



I took plenty of photos, lord knows how they turned out! Didn't get very close cause there were so many people...

Supposedly he was supposed to be brought down at 9 pm but after half a dozen false countdowns he came down at 9:55 instead. He had a sweater on, too.

Natsume said:

Kinkyness and a jumper! ehehe great report U!

I'm glad he made it...

JDINTERACTIVE said:

What colour was the jumper?

REDFEATHERS said:

Darkish, brown or black. We couldn't tell.

Some people will do anything for attention...

David Blaine leaves suspe...r 44-days

The Associated Press


LONDON -- Severely weakened by 44 days of self-imposed starvation, American magician David Blaine on Sunday left the clear plastic box that has been his home -- and a major London tourist attraction.

Thousands of spectators watched the 30-year-old Blaine exit the box, which was suspended by a crane near Tower Bridge, after it was lowered to the banks of the Thames River. After living on only water since Sept. 5, Blaine was taken to a hospital for examination.

Londoners spent the first few weeks of Blaine's incarceration taunting the New York illusionist, pelting his box with eggs or zapping him with laser pens. One man was arrested for firing paint-filled balloons at the box, which measures 7 feet-by-7 feet-by-3 feet, and another was fined for trying to damage the water supply.

But in recent weeks ridicule has turned to respect, prompting large crowds of well-wishers to gather by the river and watch Blaine grow thinner, hairier and more disheveled.

Sky TV estimated that 250,000 spectators visited the site since the stunt started, and traffic in surrounding streets has been snarled for weeks due to the large numbers of people driving through the area to catch a glimpse.
