OUCH! A catheter? I give him even more props then...
Well, however high it was, I have to say I was actually impressed. Think of it this way, Freefall at Great Adventure is only 50 feet high...that put the jump in perspective for me...

I heard he was 10 stories up. I think the guy is great. Who would you rather see? David Copperfield??? That guy is a fucking fag. At least Blaine has some style and seems like a cool guy.

I think Blaine is just as good as Penn & Telller, but they are totally different acts. Blaine uses more of a "mysticism" approach to his act, while Penn & Teller use a flashy type of act. Both are great. Penn & Teller would be great to see live, but the fact that Blaine just does all that stuff in random places, and on the street is kick ass.

thw show was lame. his other shows were better. The filler street tricks were lame, with the exception of the watch/newspaper and refilling the beer can trick. his past shows, there was a lot of showmanship in them. last night he looked like he was on ludes half the time doing his street bits.
Here's some tidbit for you. The exploding glass trick with the retarded tourists - here's how it works. A drop of borax in the glass. It's like a timed fused. Borax and alcohol oxidize, thus then, the glass breaks. He probably dropped a dusting into that glass.
The swallowing the snake? He really did eat the thing. There probably was a shill behind the kid who put another snake in the bag.
As for the jump - BIG FUCKING DEAL! That's a standard stuntman jump. Darrell Robinson did that same shit over 10 years ago. It's not magic or illusional. Neither was the ICE one last year or the being buried one the year before. Give me a Penn and Teller. At least they're funny.
If anyone knows how he did the beercan trick, please let me know. It would save me alot of money on buying beer.
Have a great day!
