David Blaine, whom I call the “crazy magician”, broke a Guinness Record by holding his breath for 17 minutes and 4 seconds while underwater. He accomplished this record breaking performance in front of millions of viewer on the Oprah show.
I hate to say it, but I can almost guarantee that some kid will drown within the next week trying to copycat this feat.
That’s the world we live in.

On May 1, 2008 at 6:14 amI watched that on Oprah yesterday and I gotta say that it was incredible. But yeah, some kid is gonna try that stunt and end up in the hospital or on a slab.

On May 1, 2008 at 7:10 amWow, Wow, Wow! We perform 4 song sets that don’t even last that long. That is incredible. I admire the way he continues to raise the bar and challenge himself. To him, there is no Standard except the standard he sets! I like to feel that I have the same mindset. Congrats David! Much Respect!!!
