Just all seems kind of pointless to me.... Notice he was taken away in a NHS ambulance, surely someone with as much money as he has should have paid for BUPA instead of making us foot the bill!

Jon Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 Hes a magician, ppl are so keen to believe in the surreal that common sense just leaves the building (take Derren Brown for instance..). Watching him leave the box was the most boring TV I've seen in years.. a stupidly boring end to a mind numbingly dull stunt. If he did this for himself, to develop as a person, wtf did he do it in the middle of london and on live tv. too many are willing to judge before they understand too many people are willing to believe in something fantasical before they stop and think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypoxiaicon Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 ive seen david many of a times over the past 5 years.. its not ment to be entertaining at all. whats to think about? would you go in a box for 44 days and night with nothing but water? he did it for himself, his ultimate feat. its hardly a stunt. he could still die from organ failure. magic is an optical illusion. how is this an illusion? this is real.

Jon Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 No I wouldn't, because its bloody stupid. If he did it for himself, why was it so public........ You're confused. What you ment to say was "its hardly magic, it was a stunt". You think its real, you have no proof. You're trusting a guy who you believe wants to hurt himself, and talks about 2 words per hour. Come on.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imtoomuch Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 He does it all for the hot chicks. Have you ever seen the chicks he gets? You may dislike him, but he makes more money than you and gets hotter women too. Enough said! ;) BTW: I am not a fan, but I'm also not a hater.

poind Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 Regardless of anything else, I'll give him credit for staying in a confined space like that, using diapers, not bathing, etc., for 44 days. Do question him not having any nutrients at all. Wouldn't be surprised if he's less cocky following the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocklea Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 that guy is a fraud/retard. David Copperfield is so much better than him, and less obnoxious too. 2 thumbs up to all the people that makes his life miserable when he was still in the box :punk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boffa Jones Veteran Posted October 20, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 20, 2003 blain is cool enough. I dont think he cheated because there would be no point, i mean he sat in a box. Maybe he got a little bit of protien or whatever... but who knows, it isnt 'magic' it was a test to see how far he coudl push his body (more or less talkin out o my ass just what i have picked up from numerous sources.)

aaron901 Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 What was he to prove? to show the world he's capable of doing something 99% of people in the world couldn't do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whipper25 Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 i like blaine...his 'stunts' are not meant to be a magic/illusion show..they're just 'stunts', made to push him to the limit..he says he feels most alive when he does these stunts (buried alive, frozen in time, vertigo, and this stunt)..he wants to create images in peoples minds that they won't forget..like pieces of art that will last in time..which is a lot more than what any other magician does...in my opinion, copperfield (i was a huge fan when i was a kid), who undoubtedly is a master showman, is more of a 'fake' than blaine..i just don't like the cheesy musical numbers and dancers prancing around and his big-budget magic shows... i prefer the 'in-your-face' street magic that blaine does...there's nothing in between..just you and him...

tomwarren Veteran Posted October 20, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 20, 2003 Even if he had something in the water he still lasted for 44 days all on his own in a box with just water and perhaps glucose in the water. Pretty mad if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
