We know him as the illusionist that made us believe we can levitate, and hands-down, the most dextrous, most amazing magician on the face of the Earth. He's living underwater for a week in front of Lincoln Center beginning May 1st.
QUOTE The "human aquarium" in which Blaine will float is a specially built 8-foot acrylic sphere. He will receive liquid nutrition through a tube and the water will be kept at a balanced temperature to help keep his core temperature close to 98.6 degrees F. Imagine how pruney he'll get. This man is amazing  QUOTE Passers by will be able to touch the aquarium, take pictures with Blaine and communicate with him. If you live near the city, I urge you to go see. |

Eww, I wouldn't want to waste time seeing that.
I don't want to gawk at another human like he's a wild animal. |

^ It's what he does, though, as a street performer. If we didn't go watch and make it something worth remembering, his work would be in vain.

-_- I hate David Blaine. He gets all sorts of attention for doing stupid stuff, like living in glass boxes in London. That's not magic, that's being retarded.
With that said, I will probably go, take pictures, laugh at his retarded ass, and throw stuff at his tank. |

^ Criss Angel is retarded. He's a glutton for punishment. And so not a real magician. David Blaine isn't British, he's from New York (go figure). He just did a big stunt in the UK a couple of years ago.

He does that, and I think no one does it better than him. Have you seen how quick his hand is? It's incredible. |

Pushing over a palm tree? Lifting a taxi cab's front end a couple inches off the ground? Come on now. |

I think this breath thing was bulljive! He isn't even doing illusions anymore in these big specials. He is the biggest joke on magic since GOB Bluth.

I actually (stupidly) watched for the full 2 hours of his holding his breath underwater thing because I thought that he'd actually do it and I wanted it in my memories forever...it was kinda a waste of time for me, although I definitely couldn't hold my breath for as long as he did.
