He should stick to magic tricks. At least those were cool. This Evel Kneivel crap isn't working for him. No offense Evel Kneivel (especially if I just spelled your name wrong).

s_wrenn, I don't know what the hell he was trying to do on GMTV but he looked stoned!

Didn't he try to hypnotize him on GMTV? It just didn't work.

I held my breath for 9 minutes 34 seconds once while taking a shit in a portapotty but, sadly, there were no witnesses.
Little Black Francis Posted - 05/10/2006 : 15:12:57
I can not hold my breath for 9 minutes too. I should be on TV.

A good magic trick is to see if all the haters can pull out a better magician out of their asses.

Blaine had to be rescued. He failed to last more than 7 minutes.

He's stated that his idol is Houdini, and I guess in some small way he wants to emulate him. In almost everything these days there's an element of self-promotion but that's reasonable I think.

I don't think he's any different to any other artist in terms of that. In fact you could argue he's less nauseating since he only appears every couple of years or so. It takes him a long time to prepare for some of his stunts.

I suppose I'm just sick of all the cynicism that surrounds people that try and do things these days. It's like we want to ridicule them for wanting to try and do something out of the norm. You could extend it to people like Evel Knievel (was there the same level of cynicism surrounding him??), hell even a director who makes a ground-breaking film. Are they doing it for art, or for self-promotion? Maybe it's a bit of both.

it's all about publicity.
he's not interested in doing phenomenal things for any other reason but to become famous.
well thats what i think about him, and i'm not interested in people who do things for that reason. sure, that rules out a very large number of people, but he in particular annoys me.

he's not interested in stretching the bounds of human indurance as the things he's doing are just stupid. living in a box suspended above the thames for gods sake!?!?!?!?!?

true, the god missing an opportunity comment was in bad taste, but i just have zero respect for him.



all i can say, thank god for polio! brian

I still don't get why anyone would think of him like that. He's trying to do extraordinary things.......I can't imagine what it would be like mentally to stay in a globe of water for 24 hours let alone 7 days.

and man, he almost died attempting his "holding his breath underwater" trick today...

i remember walking past him while he was suspended in his box over the thames in london. i was appalled and amazed at how many people went to watch...sure, most of them were just there to throw stuff at him, but to even nake that much effort suprised me.

"Ha ha this away"

Love it, homers. Ah, the memories. Thanks for that!

I didn't realise he had a constant supply of oxygen. It would have been more entertaining to have him surface for air like our sea fairing mammal friends.

Good luck, Blaine. You'll need it.

( I now give a crap)

I am looking forward to his public death and hoping he at least gives us access to that.

Yeah i heard about that 8:58 record too. Blaine has to do 2 whole seconds more. Difference is he is peeling inside a tank for a week. I heard as well that technically Blaine is cheating as he is inhaling pure oxygen as opposed to the current world record holder inhaling natural air.

Does anyone think he'll really be able to hold his breath for 9 minutes at the end of this stunt?

It's his slight of hand that impresses me. I've brought a fly "back to life" so that one doesn't wash. The endurance stuff, well i'm just jealous. I wish I could have time off work to swim around a giant goldfish bowl. It looks fun.
Llamadance Posted - 05/04/2006 : 08:25:18
do you really think it's attention seeking? It's no worse or better than, say, an actor making a movie for entertainment. But he does seem to be trying to push himself to feats of human endurance, and that's cool.
