This talk at TED http://www.ted.com/talks/david_blaine_how_i_held_my_breath_for_17_min.html http://www.ted.com/talks/david_blaine_how_i_held_my_breath_f... is interesting. Like the moment when he talk that his ex-gf used time that he spent underwater to read SMSes on his phone.
- orblivion 16y agoI don't understand why people aren't more concerned with the fact that he's conflating being a magician (illusions) with pulling off medical feats? I think we should be raising the question of whether this stuff is real. EDIT: Funny, I paused to make this comment immediately before his story about the doctor suggesting the illusion of not breathing.
- cmod 16y agoJust a note: if you do watch this, watch it until the very last second.
- StavrosK 16y agoWhy? I don't see anything.
- mcantor 16y agoHe tears up at the end, just barely losing composure, as he explains what magic--and, I imagine, life--means to him. I was certainly touched.
- louislouis 16y agoReally? It seemed like poor acting to me? I duno, just didnt seem real.
- StavrosK 16y agoOh, I took your comment literally and thought the guy on the stage was someone to note. I did see the end of the speech, yes.
- baby 16y agowow. This talk was intense. Definitely one of the best talk from TED
