Question David Blaine...

OK. We've all heard about it. Noone has posted about it. What do we all think about his latest stunt?

Is he barking or a clever PR guru?

You decide...

I think he is mad. He could seriously jepodise his life.....for what? He's not poor any more. He is famous and has a gorgeous German girlie.

Is he cheating? Does the water have concentrated glucose (or TPN) in it? He takes a long time in peeing.....could that be a route for nutritional delivery? [The tube that is..]

Any thoughts?

Just heard that David Blaine is giving up his attempt to set a record for doing nothing in the box. he has accepted that he will never beat Emile Heskey.

duncant403 is an unknown quantity at this point
There was a letter in the Metro suggesting Damien Hirst should get involved by using the stunt for his next art project and pickle David Blaine in formaldehyde

He can't actually do it, I read an article in this weeks 'New Scientist' and they say that if he only has water for that long then his salt levels will drop that low he will collapse before he gets pas 20 (I think) days!

If he does get that far we know its a trick!!

Strange, I was talking to a dietician the other day .....they were saying that it should be fairly straightforward as he was sitting in a box doing absolutley nothing....therefore was not using any calories.........as long as he kept drinking water he would be fine..

Did anybody else think he looked a littl emore chubby than usual when he went into the box?

I've got a challenge for him - being locked up in a 7 by 3 perpex box with Jamie Oliver but not being able to choke the life out of the fat-lipped mockney nugget
