JohnsonBox Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 (edited) On the 28th day, Blaine began to bleed at his nose, and cry wildly wanting fried eggs, murphy can, tomato, coffee, oat and toast, knocking on the glass wall violently, grovelling in the dust like a dog, and shouting to spectators under him. He said to the clerks by him:"I am starving to death, my muscles ache all over, I begin to feel I've really gone mad." In front of TV camera lens, Blaine murmured to himself:"I feel being confined by the walls; it feels the walls have squashed in my head, like a pliers to tweak my head crazily. I can feel they have been stuck on my head. Strangely enough. I've never felt this until today. All sides of the walls press me like a hell. The room is becoming smaller and smaller." And Blaine showed his black palms to the spectators, because lacking of vitamins the palms have occurred heavy pigmentation. He laughed insanely:"This is a very good experience! But now all has gone cruel. It is not a question of the hands, but a question of spirit, which is facing a cruel challenge. Really, it is too cruel!" And yet he wrote the following words on the glass wall: "I do not consider myself as part of an individual race or country or religion. Just simply a human being. And this is my exploration and now discovery of how strong we all are on mind, body and spirit. Peace." And take a look at the attached image, he still looks peaceful at the moment. Do you think Blaine will be a winner finally -- successfully finishes his 44 days fast, or a loser? Poll please, and simply tell us your reason. However, we shall see the interesting result within fortnight. As for me, he will be a winner. Cos he is just a magician, not a scientist in his serious experiment. Otherwise, why not inviting Harvard's scientists to take part in it? The link: http://news.sina.com.cn/s/2003-10-06/0901868458s.shtml PS. What Blainse has said above is not the original words said by him. I just translated Chinese news into English. So if someone posts the original words said by Blaine, he/she will be much appreciated! blaine Edited October 6, 2003 by JohnsonBox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poind Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 I'm not readily finding such an article elsewhere. Whole thing is an attention stunt. Wouldn't be surprised if he's doing such things that they are too. On the other hand, sad thing is he could be having serious problems and everyone would just think it's part of the act, perhaps even his own staff.

JohnsonBox Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 This article was stolen from the sun newspaper by the chinese.... its basically all the same :| No kidding! Never have I read a word from the sun newspaper, to say nothing of copying something from it. I just translated the main part of the Chinese news into English! And the Chinese news has indicated the news was from UK's media! See the link! Here, I swear on the Bible! Captain Crunch, please show the original article of the sun newspaper. You'd understand you should take all the responsibility for your words! Also to BeLGaRaTh. Again, Captain Crunch, or BeLGaRaTh, please show the original article of the sun newspaper here (copy it and post here, or show the link). I think you are both from UK, so that is much convenient for you. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throes Of Rejection Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I don't care if he survives or dosen't make it. Somebody has already done something similiar for alot longer. David Blaine's magic is good but the publicity stunts are just stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnsonBox Posted October 10, 2003 Author Share Posted October 10, 2003 Blaine Reveals the Motivation of His Fast -- inspired by the death of his mother (News Evening Paper, Oct.10, 12:03 Beijing Time) David Blaine has reached the 33rd day of his fast in the glass box. At the wee hours, 3 o'clock, Blaine spoke to a group of musicians surrounding him, saying this stunt is inspired by the death of his mother. His mom was a Russian Judaism, and suffered uterus cancer since she was 17-year-old, after two years she passed away in Bliane's arms (sic - JB). "I saw my mom has been in starvation for a long time when she went, but she always kept smile all the time." But Blaine's behaviour has become freakier and freakier. He scratched his hair endlessly, sometimes he rammed himself to the wall of the crystal coffin. A psychologist who specializes in captivity said Blaine's subconsciousness is urging him into the end of his fast. He pointed out that Blaine will suffer hallucinations after several days, and then entering a state of unconsciousness.
