David Blaine's latest crazy attempt

November 22, 2006

It may not come as a shock to people familiar with David Blaine, but the American stuntman admitted on November 21st he might be a little bit crazy as he began his latest act. Blaine had himself hoisted 50 feet (15 metres) above New York's Times Square, where he will remain twisting and turning while shackled to a gyroscope for three days. On Friday, November 24th, he will attempt to escape just in time to take 100 underprivileged children on a holiday shopping spree in a promotion for a large retail chain.
