Thanks Patty daddy we ❤️ you
Bro bill Clinton was the president in 1999 not trump. U need to drink more water 💦

Do you think you could do a Dan Schneider Episode?
David Blaine is the ONLY magician I’ve ever known my entire life. Dude is for sure a legend. I didn’t know people didn’t know who he was, i feel old
did he not sell his soul to the devil :P
@@nonye0 No? 😂
You should see Paul Daniels.
Mind freak
Similar for me, while I’m aware of Angel and Copperfield, I kept up with Blaine over time. Dude mystified me as a child and still does somewhat today. His aura is what captivated me, regardless of the complexity of the tricks. It’s how they were done.
Like a famous chef, it’s not the ingredients, but how they’re prepared.
I actually got to meet him in middle school. He came to do like a mini show in the auditorium. I didn’t get to go to the auditorium for the mini show. But thankfully, afterwards he went to different classrooms to do tricks. In my classroom, he did a generic take a kids watch without him looking trick, but then he went over to our turtle cage, picked one up and freaking swallowed it. All of us lost our minds. It was one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen. Then he coughed it back up, and put it back. We learned later that it was planned out earlier, and our teacher was in it. He actually brought his own turtle, and used slight of hand to act like he used our turtle. But this guy really swallowed a freaking turtle, and coughed it back up right in front of us. Some of the students were afraid to give him a high five before he left. That’s my only good memory from middle school.😅
Lol that's rad
Great story 🙂
wow, cool memory!!!
You slap his hand and quarters start falling out 😂
That’s so awesome!
His holding breath under water stunt actually taught me how to be a better endurance athlete. The way he pieces everything together to maximize his oxygen intake and minimize its usage made me a better runner. Dudes a beast.
Have you tried pose running?
You did rectal breathing with a chemical. Look it up its a thing. 15 min is the max you can do it because co2 builds up in your blood.
Same here!

A little personal story about David Blaine if I can. I had the opportunity to work with him for several weeks while he was becoming a hot air balloon pilot in preparation for his gas balloon adventure to 20,000 feet. It was one of the memorable times in my life. He always carried a deck of cards with him and when we landed the hot air balloon in a neighborhood or we went to dinner he showed us card tricks. No cameras, no gimmicks, we were there only inches away from him. I am stil amazed. Anyway, we were talking about somebody who, actually, rode a hot air balloon on TOP of the balloon while in flight. Mr Blaine immediately asked if he could do that, no hesitation. Something like that is not done in a split second, but if it could be done he would have done it. Mr Blaine, I admire you and all you have accomplished. I don't know what goes on in your head, but I wish I had some of it. Good luck in all you do.

Why didn't he perform these card tricks on his tv specials instead of editing like crazy to achieve his magic. Sorry, he and Criss Angel are a disgrace to magic.
@@paulrothchild5870 I was there to see Mr Blaine do his card tricks. He was standing right before me with no cameras or editing. Were you there?
@@John-oe5nb not saying he cannot do a card trick, my eight year old neighbor can do many. Are you saying his tv specials are not edited? If so you need eyeglasses, they are a joke.
@@paulrothchild5870 All I can say is that I have seen what he can do in person and no, I do not need eyeglasses. I was with him for three weeks every day. I talked to him, taught him and listened to what he said and what he thought of. All I saw was real and knowing him I would say that all he does is real. I cannot say anything about his TV specials and I don't think you can either. Have you met him, have you seen what he can do? I have.
Magic or no magic you gotta admire this man's patience
it's more about timing, not patience.
Not really
What's that name of yours?
No magic.
He sold his soul.
The feats of endurance that David Blaine has pulled throughout his career are mind blowing. A true legend.
He did some pretty cool stuff and all, but the Hamburger Helicopter was the greatest stunt OF ALL TIME! 🤷♂️
love your videos tommy!!! you make amazing content! i really appreciate the work you put into it!
much love!
wassup my favorite journalist on youtube
Dude the whole story he had about literally tripping balls (sensory deprivation/isolating hallucinations) and how time dilated itself 8x while doing TIMED challenges is just... fuck man. Wow. What an icon. Dedicated to the craft of performance in every way.
I'm not impressed. It's more reckless and damn near sμi¢idal than impressive, and I'm more concerned for the snake he swallowed alive than his safety. The guy clearly gets off on being near death, it's nine kinds of messed up.
This man has a way to blow your mind and get you to try and figure out “how does he do that” that’s a true magician! He’s quite possibly one of the best that’s ever done it and he is so dedicated to his craft
also he seems like a genuinely nice guy that takes pleasure in people being amazed, like a kid.
I used to love watching his street magic, he was the first guy to float. Im glad he has a child, she will teach him alot.
Blane deserves to be respected, not just as a magician, but as a daredevil. His stunts weren't fast and explosive, but he's definitely put himself in death-defying danger.
I don't think him having a death wish should be respected.
Blaine*
Where did he shit and piss for those 44 days???
@@WobblesandBean It's moreso that he did it for the sake of entertainment for others at the risk of his own life. I would agree it's not something that should be looked up to but respected that he would go that far for entertainments sake.
He's just doing crazy things for long periods of time. How does that rate respect?
"he thought a few hours passed, when in reality only a minute had passed" damn, this is me at work every day. Me and David have something in common.
The magic isn't in the daily disappearance, but in reappearing each day! 🪄👍💪😎
@@lulumoon6942 😂😂
this is hilarious lol
Quit your job and get another one.
Tsukyomi
Landed here by accident - and I am glad I did. Great video with tons of info I had no idea about
He ended up seated next to me at a poetry reading. Super chill energy. Very likable dude
Oh
I'm older and remember magicians like David Copperfield. Blaine was the antithesis of all that excessive "show", just walking up to people and doing straight up awesome tricks.
So true
I saw David Copperfield perform many years ago and it was fantastic.
You mean walking up to his stooges and doing straight up rehersed and camera trickery garbage.
Wat.... He's literally done some of the most prolific shows of all time
Copperfield was a joke.
His public failures are why he's huge. Knowing the artist will always succeed takes the joy and mystery away. With Blaine, you legitimately have no idea if he's staging or sincere. Since you'll never be able to read him, you'll always have mystery. And his failures prove some of his material isn't faked. This man figured out what makes magic special - the wonder - and made sure no matter how long you follow him, you'll always wonder.
that's why he had so many haters. they loved the idea of him failing
Well said 👏

@@brannaganchavis1925 bro i just resaid what Omarhasan03 once said. Did you not read the comment?
Hell yes! Thanks for this ❤❤❤
Wow you gave this man a great doc. You speak truly but you exalt their greatness. I love the way you narrate. You have feeling and I think you are going somewhere big with this. Keep up the good work.
I've always been a big fan of David Blaine but he always seemed so sad to me, even as a child I could just sense something was off. Truly a unique and incredible talent.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he had depression and this was manic behavior
@@starcherry6814 lmao
That's what happens when you deal with the devil
Clearly you can read minds. Maybe you can open for Blaine instead of the balloon folder from Paramus.
Yeah ngl I knew almost nothing about David Blaine before watching this video, just that he was a Houdini-style magician but after watching, I've derived that he almost definitely is just mentally ill. As the video continued I just felt worse and worse for him but at least he had the sanity to slow down and retire after having his daughter
David Blaine is a legend. The fact he’s still alive is amazing.
Why shouldn't he be alive?? Or u believe the "stand in ice for x time" and all other TRICKS is real.
The ice shit is done by him having a heated place underneath and when they sprayed carbondioxide to "cool the ice" he changed place with a double.
What do u mean no way to fake? It's been debunked by several shows u m0r0ns.
Ps... its obvious Blane has never had a catheter for peeing.. u don't feel when pee when having a catheter... so him saying "oh I felt embarrassed when I had to pee".
Your narrative is on point man cheers
This guy is like gift to the world of science. An underrated thing he should be known for!
Him standing for 35 hours is unfathomable to me. I was in the US Army Honor Guard where we would have to stand still for up to 3 hours at a time and it was absolute hell. Hats off to him for that one.
3 hours? is that not a normal 9 to 5 job? haha
@@h3llboyyy407 while I agree, unless you're a cashier, you're likely not standing still.
@@h3llboyyy407 it just during ceremonies lol. We still worked a 9 to 5 but more like a 6 to 4
Especially trying not to lock your knees, which can send you down involuntarily.
I work as in retail and worked 8 hours standing. 5 hours walking around and 3 hours standing as door greeter. My legs after were so stiff and basically laid the next day. Also, had 10 hours as cashier too.
I saw him perform in Hollywood at the Dolby theatre and he held his breath in front of us as the final trick for some thing like eight or nine minutes. It was truly incredible. Afterwords sat on the edge of the stage and just talked to us in a way that felt like one on one. A truly gifted showman and an extremely curious fellow!
One of the best live performances I’ve ever seen.
Youre an acid toungued arab
Sold his soul
@Ich bleib sportler what does that ACTUALLY mean?! People are constantly saying this about successful people. I would like to be rich and famous, where can I go to sell my soul, any pointers? 🙄😂
At our show he came out and took pictures and said hi to everyone, in theater, in person, no security, he really just enjoys what he does
Ive been watching him for about 20 years & he is incredible. Im not even talking about the big stunts. He has done things right in front of peoples eyes that are unexplainable. His eyes are magical.
This was really cool to watch, I remember all of these growing up. I guess I was pretty lucky to watch his career unfold
Am I the only one that didn’t know people hated him?! How could you hate on David?!
Seriously lol
Yeah probably. It’s a incredibly known fact he’s heavily disliked
@@anime_cykoFans don’t seek out bad opinions about someone the enjoy watching, and therefore aren’t exposed to something like their favorite magician being heavily disliked unless it comes out and usually is a media shitstorm. I have never heard of anyone other than some other magicians didn’t like David for reasons stated at the beginning of this video. It’s a surprise to hear he is ‘heavily disliked’. He has fans across the globe, has been around a lot of stars, and portrays as a pretty likeable guy. If people he worked with and/or the media came out saying he was this or that and that people hated working with him, you could get the general population to believe he’s not what they thought. After a short bit of time it would validate your claim that it’s well known that he is heavily disliked.
Even this comment section is full of praise and admiration.
@@glizzygladiator8055 I couldn’t careless about David. Or more. He’s just another magician. And yet I knew he was disliked so much
@@anime_cyko So you’re just full of shit then, I thought as much. There’s not even backing to what you’re saying, you personally just don’t care and probably read one thing saying people don’t like him written by someone who doesn’t like him. My man. He is well liked. He is admired. Everyone big has some amount of hate, but David is not heavily disliked.
Seeing him in the end with his daughter made me unexpectedly emotional, I grew up watching him…every few years he’d pop up with another insane concept that I assumed he was a “tortured artist” type that would pass away by one of his stunts.
So to see him look so happy and have more purpose got a tear out of me lol.
Damn, wtf me too. I never cry during celebrity deaths or pretty much anything. But damn when they got to that balloon part I legit almost started sobbing.
@@supmeme658 when I first saw that online I cried man, he genuinely loves this shit.
Same
It’s the same feeling I get seeing Steve O now, seeing people who as a kid you definitely thought would die soon growing up and living happy lives is heart warming
@@BigPurp9 omg yes!
Love how your videos are positive and showcase truly impressive people’s achievements
Sick video man, i learnt a lot about this legend
Everyone in my class would talk about the latest episode of his show the day after it came on back in school. The man made magic tricks cool again.
Came her to watch something dumb and fun about David Blaine… Left with an existential crisis after the pedestrian at 9:52 spouted off the most profound analysis of Blaine I’ve ever heard. Cheer to that man!
Gave me goosebumps
I gotta do something like this , rather die entertaining someone then by myself alone
That guy is none other than Timothy "Speed" Levitch - he's an actor, tour guide, poet, speaker, philosopher, author and voice actor. He features in a favourite film of mine, Richard Linklaters "Waking Life" (Linklater also directed Dazed and Confused, Boyhood, A Scanner Darkly, School of Rock + loads more)
@@TheMixCurator his voice is so iconic. I haven’t seen that movie in over 20 years but instantly recognised his voice and where I knew it from.
Such a classic film.
“Life is a matter of a miracle that is collected over time by moments flabbergasted to be in each others presence.”
profound? no
People are critics, doubters, and haters when they are ignorant about something or don’t possess the knowledge or skills. Human nature. This man is VERY good at his craft. Nothing more needs to be said
Perfectly said! Thank you.
What a great short doc ... Thank you...
Pat, that was beautiful; especially the end. I actually teared up. Lol event tho I’ve consistently heard this man’s name throughout various channels of media for majority of my life, I actually didn’t even know what David looked like bc I’ve never watched him. It’s so sweet that his daughter not only saved his life revived it entirely. She brought light back into his life; one look at his eyes and it’s clear.
It got me too!
same it's something about the "for his daughter" that got me all teary eyed
“Magic” and illusions aside, David Blaine should be recognized for what the human body can achieve with dedication and will power. Pretty inspiring stuff, we all can do some pretty amazing things if we put our mind to it 👏
he should be recognized that it was just revealed yesterday that he was on the Jeffrey Epstein black book list
Agreed, it reminds me of David Goggins, the stuff he was able to withstand physically as well.....when you have complete control of your own mind you can do amazing stuff
Great video, thanks for putting it together!

Another great video broooo
this entire video was so emotionally stimulating, David blaine is a certified gangster
Omg I love ur videos ❤
Bro did all these crazy things, yet people didn’t believe him and people actually tried to sabotage his water supply and taunt him. Just wow.
But the audience kinda made him work more harder though,but I won't say anyone deserves that.

That’s commitment and discipline, I remember watching most of his performances as a kid.
Your a great story teller ❤
Dude brought that spark back to magic. Around that time so many people knew magic tricks were just tricks... when he came around, they werent sure anymore
Wrong. CHRIS ANGEL WAS THERE TOO MEMBER LMAO
Is what David Blaine does even magic? I mean I know he does magic tricks, sure, but are most of his performances not just a show of endurance? Even as a kid it confused me why people called it magic when he was performing these spectacles.
@@brannaganchavis1925it’s a little bit of both.
It’s all tricks. The whole. “” I need a hospital. “” “ after trick sells trick. Omg it’s real .
Im so glad you're covering this dude!! I have said many times he would have beeen a pioneer in the social media age. His tricks were very much like what some people try emulating today (like that science dude on UA-cam Red who locked himself in a small box for lile 3 days)
Edit: he also wouldve been the only prank channel I could stand 😂
How dare you reduce Vsauce to "that science dude on UA-cam Red". He is an icon; a visionary; a living legend.

Excellent video. Narration is top notch! 💚🎸
That's tremendous, I have always felt compelled to pursue knowledge and power in order to contribute to the betterment of humanity. Been seeking a means to be influential and find out more knowledge about the human race and about the things not everyone is destined to know. I wish to fulfill the goal of enlightenment passed down by our forebears.
I can totally relate to your passion, if all that is what you desire then i think it's achievable. Joining the Illuminatus Brotherhood can lead to the enlightenment you seek and more. I am well aware that the idea of this group may sound mythical but it is possible to join.
@@haynesatteh4463 Hi, isn't the brotherhood a myth? I mean sometimes i just feel like it's all just a conspiracy theory.
@@ddirtdid Yeah I acknowledge that misunderstanding can occur when people encounter what they don't fully grasp, especially in this internet era. The Illuminatus advocates for the acceptance of all religions. You can look up "Anthony Szymon". Will give you clarity and answers to any questions you might have.
@@haynesatteh4463 oh really, i just saw his website, which is interesting. I will leave him a message.
Yeah i do sometimes feel that too, prolly not exactly but i can totally relate.
I remember seeing his street magic special on tv when i was a kid, and thinking it was one of the coolest things i ever saw. David Blane is incredible from his magic to his stunts.
absolutely fascinating video well done!
I enjoy your presentation and calming voice.Thank you
at least david was staying hydrated inside that water tank
he knows the cc motto
He has become more of an endurance artist than he is a magician. His stunts aren't magic they're a test of endurance. He's an incredible entertainer and a decent magician.
If he’s just a decent magician to you which one would you consider great?!? Don’t say Chris Angel or Pen and Teller lol those guys have nothing on him. All the other magicians seem to be in it for the money or fame nobody would put their life’s on the line like he has. You need to go watch some more of his work because he is easily the best magician of the modern age!
@@_UglyBarnacle so then Harry Houdini isn’t a magician either and is just an endurance artist too?? Because Harry is David’s biggest inspiration, he has said it multiple times! So by you’re logic that means Harry Houdini isn’t a magician either. You’re argument makes no sense at all 😂
@@lakethebaker indeed houdini did enduran e and stunts but also teickery .. houdini got his name from mr robert houdin who was a mechanical automaton and watch maker who became a magician :-)
I’m a car driver, I do other things too. I enjoy finding new local restaurants to go to also. I enjoy training and running too.
Doesn’t make me any less of a car driver
@@lakethebaker Garret Thomas is a better Magician but maybe not as good at self promotion.
People love him you can't deny that
One of my all time favorite episodes of Hot Ones is David's. He's just a chill dude and I'm glad that he's still with us. I'm glad that he's found peace and joy. And of course, he annihilated the wings. ❤️
Your channel is really great man
The fact he used his stunts for science mames me respect more than most magicians
A stack of cardboard boxes for a big fall is actually pretty common in the film stunt industry, it can actually be better than a large inflated cushion in certain circumstances.
yeah it was all in fear factor
It doesn't cause people to bounce, so definitely a big plus for great heights.
Ive always really enjoyed hos work. I remember how wowed i was when his street magic show aired on Tv back in the day
You make the best videos bro. For some reason, UA-cam doesn't want me subscribed to your channel. I feel like I have to hit that damn button every time I watch your channel.
I grew up being mesmerized by this guy. Everything he did was either really intense and/or profound and he messed with people's heads the way Chris Angel wished he could. But David was always real, I don't think he was ever putting on an act, he was just working his way through his demons.
your range is unmatched!! Wrestlers, Actors, Reality tv stars, Musicians, and now Magicians. I love it.
Awesome video for an amazing man. I cant believe u never mentioned the bullet catch though!
I have say I truly like how narrate a story, there is something good about and it just relaxes me while I watch and drink my water
I've been following & admiring David since I was a child. He was the reason I learned to hold my breath underwater for 1 minute & 45 seconds. I used all his techniques. I've seen every special and every video he's ever put out. He is seriously my biggest inspiration in life.
I know he said he might not do anymore stunts after ascension, but I hope he continues to inspire & awe us.
get you skrilla up busta 4 minutes or nothin
his techniques seriously fucked up his health and gave him hypoxic brain damage. i mean it's good to have aspirations and everything, and (as long as you don't have children) it's your body to do with what you wish, but please be careful. i have family with hypoxic brain damage, and trust me; if it does that to you, it isn't worth it.
@@narpuppy420lmao, you've got to be trolling. David blane is easily twice the man jesus was
I could hold my breath for 1 min 42 seconds without any training or preparation. It's not special at all.
@@Praescribotf?💀
He will always be one of if not the greatest magicians to me. Every time I have watched him I felt like I was watching someone perform real magic and not trying to be someone he wasn't. I've had to go through many of the same tortures and traumas that David endured throughout his life and I feel like I understand him deeper because of it.
Well I think his performance was all just self destruction and it’s honestly just mental illness, unfortunately.
Like being frozen Alive? Buried alive?
@@mickaelgarza-zv5qi His tricks and stunts are not torture, because he engineers them and does them willingly. In fact, for Blaine doing the stunt is therapeutic.
_The torture and trauma was from losing so many of his close family at a young age._
If that didn't enter your mind when you originally read it, then consider yourself very very lucky.
Lmao
Pretty satanic dude
First video of yours for me. I loved it!
This is an amazing love letter to a remarkable talent. Very well done
such a legend, first time I've got introduced to him was his street magic videos, especially the one where he turns a cup of coffee into a cup full of coins for a homeless man, great spirit and a special human being
I never forget that episode. I'm still mind blowing over 20 years later 🤯
"...so the frogs have a safe place to live in his stomach..." i am officially blown away. He's so out there.
The idea of walking around, doing performances with a living frog inside your stomach... 😵💫
Good video man, David has been a treasure to watch my whole life
Just want to say, you did an amazing job with this video, your commenting was just great dude! 💯
Vertigo is insane. Standing upright, with nothing to lean or sit against for 2 days and nights is such a mind blowing feat. For comparison, Im in the military and have attended numerous selections for various units and programs, the kind of place where you are constantly subject to heinous physical scrutiny. People that attend these selections have to be incredibly physically fit and prepared, the wash out rates are usually above at least 60%. In those types of places, oftentimes a form of punishment or testing is prolonged standing in one place. The longest I ever had to stand in one place was 12 hours, and that was among the hardest things I have done in my life, harder than running upwards of 20 miles with weight, harder than swimming for miles and miles, harder than doing all the push ups. It hurts your entire musculoskeletal system and the urge to lean against something gets stronger by the minute. The fact he did this for 2 days and nights absolutely blows my mind.
David Blaine is mesmerizing - just hope he sticks to his "regular" magic and stop with the insane things that could kill him or even cause some health issues. He is great at what he does, even the "bland" magic. This was a great video, by the way. I am a new subscriber now. ❤
didn't knew about him a lot (except the most popular facts), thanks for vid
I have always loved Magic, and I dabble in it a bit myself, doing card tricks and some cardistry. David Blaine is the real deal and I have enormous respect for him and his passion for Magic and his innovative dedication to his craft. I have always been a big fan and enjoy all his performances. I admit I am a huge sucker for street magic and close up magic but not much of a fan of daredevil or escape artist stunts. They are impressive, but not my thing. David Blaine is a master of both types of Magic and I for one, wish him continued success.
I appreciate how much effort you put into these videos man. Keep up the great work and thanks!
It’s frustrating & sicking how ppl will go so far to be toxic & try to shoot someone down from being great cause they can’t do something themselves
haters gonna hate
He's a dang ole satanist who uses black magik to do his evil trickery! Y'all is being fooled! 🙏🇺🇸
Great vid 👍🏾
That was really good thanks!
I grew up loving everything he did when I saw him on tv, definitely interested in this take.
Love how positive you are
Very well done man!! Respect. Glad you showed all aspect, yet know how incredible David is in this world. I’m not even a huge ‘David Blaine’ fan but I respect him more than most anyone. (Btw, your vid was recommended, so you’re doing something right. Cheers.)
I saw David when he was suspended in that glass box in London for like 45 days when i was a kid, that was my introduction into his crazy world and I always thought this guy is an absolute anomaly. Huge respect for him
I did too and it was amazing
Great video, thanks.
Thanks for this video, really
this was such a great video 👏
Bro why is there nobody
I agree! Ngl it made me very nervous tho 😅

Do you do any Magic Sean?
Seriously, great job!
My mums fav she loved him made her happy and she gave so much blessing and prayed for him all the time.
Thank you for a look back at him
Miss watching with mum.
Bet she still praying for him from the heavens
I have always Loved this guy. He's an Amazing man. God Bless DB
Definitely liked watching his elevating and all the simple tricks to random people. His is amazing
I think he was hated for being called a magician. ‘Magic’ usually implies you’re tricking someone into thinking you did something magical when you really didn’t. David simply went, “But what if I actually did something magical”
I think your right about this one. I didn't think about it this way.
Hes more an athlete than a magician. Greatest performance artist in my opinion.
Great vid!!
Another good channel 👍
It really does suck people can't just enjoy it for what it is. David is AMAZING and there's is never a time I'm not smiling from ear to ear when seeing his card tricks or any tricks for that matter. He still brigs out that child like awe when I watch him and trying to debunk of figure how he does some of the stuff he does I find totally not necessary, I'll keep enjoying it for what it is.
I always loved David Blaine and the street magic he did. The stunts always gave me anxiety. Never knew he received so much hate just for doing something he was passionate about. This was a great video ❤
I’m with you! I loved the street magic bc I loved seeing the reactions of the people! But the stunts I can’t watch, they ratchet my anxiety wayyy up!! ❤❤
This is America. People will hate on you for being happy 😂😂. I guess same for other countries I don't know.
It’s not hate but. He is a magician it’s not real. But when he claims it’s real. Opens him up for. Calling out his lies. Houdini. Was totally against this. He would bust him wide open. For lying that it’s real. The ice thing was a trick
It's not really "hate" per say, but more like the magic community were "upset" with him for using the term "stunts" for most of his appearances. It was disingenuous and the magic community is a very tight nit group (well, it used to be)... I was actually part of that community and I remember what everyone was saying and I agreed with them. We use the terms "illusion" and "tricks" for a reason. Most of these "so-called stunts" were more illusion and trickery than they were "stunts". I'm not saying that some (a small few) weren't "illusion or trickery" but most were. We all knew how he did them, like buried alive and frozen in time (to name a few), and when he came out (as well as publicists) saying that it was ALL real, that's when the community got upset with him and why his popularity dwindled (meaning, he was pretty much tossed aside).
Since these latter days of the Internet, the magic community doesn't really exist anymore because there are no more secrets. With that said, if you or anyone else would like to know more on the subject of Mr. Blaine, please feel free to ask. Lastly, this is not an attack on David as I think he's a very talented individual that was led astray from ... well, let's just say "the ones that have him under contract"
@@ChrisClemmons This is fascinating. Could you elaborate on how exactly the buried alive and frozen in time were tricks? Like what specifically did he do to fool audiences? And more specifically, is the ice pick through the skin a trick or holding the frog in his stomach? I watched him when I was a kid on the ABC show he did, so I've halfway followed him for years, but I don't really have any interest in magic in general (except the cool math from some of those card tricks) so I guess I've never really looked into it. Is there some sort of online database for how tricks are done or something? Especially since you say there's no more secrets. I've always thought the magic was cooler when I knew how it worked behind the scenes rather than not knowing.
What a lovely story. I saw his earlier stuff on tv but didn't realise he was basically pushing himself to death.
You should do documentary about Layne Staley next. Anyway, keep up the work Patrick
Big fan here. Dude's the real deal! Seen him perform up close, over a decade ago, and I was blown away.
