David Blaine

Reilly

44 days in a box, opinions anyone?

I quite respect what he's doing, but I think if people analyse it for being more than it is then he begins to look annoying. Its not as if hunger strikes have never taken place before, or its not as if the genuinely starving arent going longer without food.

Still, in the Magic world (Thats where I see this stunt, not in the Human Endurance world) its shaking things up a little bit, hell, no-one else is really doing anything except for ####ing Vegas magic.

Give it time

I bet he's cheating. Wonder if they could pump glucose in with that water he's getting?

Reilly

Way to point out the obvious accusation there.

Of course they could pump glucose up, I dont know if they are or not.

The show was going to bring in an independant source for investigating such things, until they discovered how the source would go about their business (Including brief interuptions to what should be David's constant water supply).

I saw that Sky One presenter trying the water, and he said it tasted just like water, with nothing else in it. But what if the Sky One presenter was lying, says you? Well, Sky One presenters dont lie. Officially.

Give it time

Quack Handle

He's an illusionist. So it's probably some sort of illusion.

Miakal

Probably?

Is this what the education system is like in the U.K?

Second, Roy got his head taken off by a tiger (or lion, I forget) so I think Roy is officially the best magician in the world.

Bouchie

Yeah and that sucked cause we had tickets for an upcoming show then he gets attacked by a tiger.

Drunksader

Yeah, Roy got rocked.

Anyone else remember the Simpsons episode where they make fun of Sigfried and Roy? They're on stage, and there's a white bengal tiger riding a unicycle smoking a pipe while wearing a fez. The tiger looks at the guy who's supposed to be Roy, who's making fun on him. Then the tiger has a flashback to when he was in the jungle and S&R sneak up on him and say, "Aye, Ty-guh, smile!" and shoot him w/a tranq dart. Then the tiger mauls the guy who's supposed to be Roy.

Haha! I remember that episode.

Just think about the irony. ;)

When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the country not enter the city. For this is the time of punishment in fullfillment of all that has been written. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and be taken as prisoners to all nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
...At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.
Luke 21:20-28

Good Ol' JP

when he comes out we will be able to see if he has cheated. If he has gone 44 days with no food, he will look visibally smaller and if he doesnt, he cheated.

Rhyno's #1 mark just layed the smackdown!

If I am no one, and no one is perfect, then I am perfect.

Blaine isn't an illusionist, he's a magician. Copperfield is an illusionist.
