I gotta say, this guy is a real chump. What is so special about being in a box for 44 days without food? People on hunger strikes do it without water for less publicity. It isnt even a "magic trick".

What a turnip.
 
hes an anus...

you know, he came to London to pull off this stunt and the people here have actively tried to ignore it....the 44 days without food was to prove that when Jesus spend 40 days and 40 nights in the desert, he has nothing on the mighty David Blane...

what a pap..

hes up there in the box and people couldnt give a flying ****

WHO CARES???

he needs to get a life and a girlfriend
 
Couldn't agree more.

He's just down the road from where i work, a couple of the girls have been down to eat burgers in front of him already.

So far i hear that eggs, sausages, golf balls and laser lights have been sent his way..... I'm trying to get hold of a paintball gun ;) I'll make sure to deep freeze the paintballs before i start firing.

Silly sod, he has made himself a target for every drunk Londoner in the area. Did no-one tell him what a bad idea this was?
 
hahahahaha....wow, frozen paint balls. Geez, do you know how much that would hurt. They hurt like hell when there not frozen :o
 
Yup, he's nothing but a self-publicist. Still, I've got him in Celebdaq, so it should be good for earnings!

If you all think he was in that box the whole time, not eating or drinking,.... your as ignorant as he hopes you are.

BTW,.. I think he's a very innovative person, who has ****-loads more $$$ than 99% of us,... so, as Max said, until your just as innovative,... you might wanna shed-ep.

Once upon a time...

...there was a box.

Then David Blaine sat in the box. And he managed to not die. But it's okay, he's not an idiot, nooo -- after all -- he has more $$$ than 99% of us. 👍

Hey Slip, welcome back (again) to GTP! :)
 
But it's so silly......

I mean, look, what is the point? What does it achieve? Is the world going to be a better place? Will it push forward the boundaries of human knowledge? Will the greater good be served?..... no.

I like DB, he did some great street stuff, some real entertainment for the people... Some of his TV specials were brilliant.

But this is silly; it serves no purpose other than to give drunken Londoners something to do after chucking out time.

out time.

Come to think of it, that's a pretty noble cause.

WHY?! And off whom?

People like David Blaine ruin economies.

Remember when he nearly killed himself in his attempt at Houdini's coffin trick? Funny stuff.

Only if he doesnt turn around and spend the money........ we all could have the same effect.

I think your confusing him for someone who is rediculously rich and doesnt have to perform such stunts......

So how do you know he's getting paid?


Common sence. Where does he get his income if not from his magic? What would he do,... flip burgers at McDonalds for 6 months to save up for his next extraveganza? Doubtful,... anytime you see him on TLC, DISC, ect,.. he's gettin paid,... When you see an advertisement by on of his gigs (like the one we're talkin about) he gets paid,... he draws the people to the advertisements and gets paid for it. But those are simply the common sence examples,... how much money the city of London paid him for doing it there is probably a much harder number to calculate.

Maybe not,..... but plenty of toursists will. And if people are still staying away, then call it an advertizing blundder on the part of your city officials. They woulndt ever have allowed it to happen if they didnt htink it would be profitable for the city. So, now, who's the ignorent one?... DB for doing it, or you for having faith in your politicians for allowing it to happen?
