  • I'm fascinated by what David did, but his next personal challenge should be to become a better public speaker. His droning delivery is hard to get through. :)

  • David - you are so intense, passionate & commited. I love you infinity!!! (and I wouldn't get mad about your Blackberry ;) )

  • who pays those people do such meaningless things ?!

  • i love how he crys at the end lawl made me laugh 

  • Bravo David, fucking BRAVO!

  • BAMF!

  • i tried purging... and passed-out... but it was so cool... i can now hold my breath for 2:33... hehehe.. nice!!!

  • @gfdadefuin

    i usually purge for 1 minute and i hold my breath about 3:30 :D at my first atempt

  • Congratulations. What a great commitment to your art!!

  • I kept thinking of him, and relating him to Isaac newton, because apparently Newton put a needle in his eye to see if there was anything inside or behind it when he was discovering optics, Blaine seems to be doing something very similar, its a hard life, anyone can see that. Kudos to him :)

  • Yeah, he's always talked like that. I dunno what's wrong with it; it's an auditory break from the usual loud, frenetic chatter you hear from a lot of performers.

  • After seeing this it seemed to get harder to breathe?

  • speaking like this doesn't wastes energy,and your heart rate is cool.you need to learn ppl.

  • lol people saying he has brain damage, probably he just speaks like that, or he has a cold!

  • nice vid's

  • nice videos..

  • Its great show, me like you David

  • He doesn't have brain damage on this video, at least you can't deduce anything from his speech. He's been talking this way since his first street specials in 1999. Pull up the old shows and listen.

  • He getting older now, he need to stop doing this stuff now and go back to regular smoke and mirrors before he mess himself up from these acts. i can see him slurring in his speech soon from brain damage.

  • If you listen to how he speaks. I would assume he has hypoxic brain damage.

  • what is the name of the song in the beginning?

  • he's kinda chubby

  • David Blaine is the fuckin' dude. But he often confuses enthusiasm with capability.

  • Wow I didn't think it was real at first but now I really think he did it

  • WOW

  • Legand..

  • Really cool. But the slurping made me crack up. The drying was a bit random though.

  • @WillElMagnifico Hahaha me too

  • Awesome!

  • I want to know what made David cry at the end

  • @jfeldhamer bcos he's been risking his life as a magician, but ppl never appreciate what he's done to the magic world.. instead they love "cris angel" the black metal, satanic guy.. DAVID BLAINE is the most amazing guy you'll ever knew, you'll never see him make magic shows on stage with hot girls and stuff. Instead, he went to the streets to let ppl see his magics 1st hand. you'll nvr see him wear fancy clothes, instead he wears a plain shirt in his tv shows. he's the most humble guy. :D

  • So he actually could have gone longer than 17:04 if he was in the conditions he was used to.

  • twahhhh

  • 15:41 = MAD SLURP

  • Comment removed

  • The Super High Potential & Gifted Man Ever Lived

  • Most people in this world just talk **** and criticise. David Blaine does it, and doesn't mind whether you think its a good thing or not. Respect 5/5 indeed.

  • Okay, . . . but.

    Its one thing for an athlete to break another record. But it is something else for a professional magician who earns his living amazing the public to perform a feat of wonder. Its easy to amaze me; but I wonder what James Randi thinks.

  • @Pangolin99 james randhi is liek way to logical to feel good magical stuff hes like a person who use magic to show people its not real he can do some stuff..

  • RESPECT 5/5

  • 1 word, inspirational!!!!

  • I teared up. ;{

    This was an awesome lecture.

  • I have to say, usually I thing that all kinds of lectures are somekind boring. But this story was really interesting and I really liked it. I dont like David Blaine as a magician but I respect him for his stunts.
