Does anyone know if he actually did it?

He is a magician who was going to hold his breath for nine minutes. I didnt get to watch it. Did anyone?

He made it 7 mins and 8 sec. He did really good in my book though. I never could hane done it.

This is PG Sweetie by the way!!

I'm amazed he held it for that long... i cant get past 35 seconds.

There are lots of people who train themselves to hold their breath for several minutes so they can go skin diving (non-SCUBA) particularly to harvest sponges. Of course this is done not remaining motionless "to conserve energy".

Yeah, he didn't make it.

Honestly I hate David Blaine. He shouldn't even call himself a magician anymore. It gives guys like David Copperfield, Criss Angel (sp), and Penn & Teller, and more a bad name.

I agree with you 100%, how is holding your breath, standing on a platform, seeing how long you can stay in a block of ice, etc... Magic?

I saw it last night. Kinda sucked for him though, because he had held his breath for a long time, then when he was on his final minutes, he lost it. The poor guy must be furious at himself for not breaking the record (not to mention he has lung problems now). I turned to my mom while watching it, and said, "What is America coming to? We're watching some dude hold his breath!"

The guy was insane for doing it. Submerging yourself underwater for that long is not magic, it's a combination of luck and really good lungs (which he wasted on this stunt). He's not a magician. He's a daredevil.

 

[MuNkY]

It's funny because he used to do what we would call magic, but now his career has come to doing these stupid stunts.

My teacher said everything he does isnt real but idk

 

[PatriotsRule]

At least he was honest in saying he didn't break the record. He seemed like a pretty good sport about it despite his new liver and lung problems.

they said on the news today not only does he now have lung problems his skin on his hands started peeling

 

[Stitch&figment 4 eve]

I like his traditional street magic. Anybody see some of the clips they played of his real magic? Kind of cool, but he does some incredibly dumb things that have a good chance of him gettin injured. But he has a lot of heart to try and pull that off.

YIKES!

Why in the world would someone try to stay under water for 9 minutes? It just seems stupid to me.
