David Blaine single-handedly redefined magic after producing and directing his original television special “Street Magic” when he was just 23. The New York Times noted that Blaine has “taken a craft that’s been around for hundreds of years and done something unique and fresh with it” The New Yorker claimed, “he saved magic.”
Over the last two decades, Blaine’s primetime specials have seen him being buried alive in New York City for a week, encased inside a six-ton block of ice for three days, survived standing atop a 100-foot tall pillar in Bryant Park for 36 hours without a safety net, endured 44 days inside a transparent box in London on no food, just water. Blaine’s refeeding was studied by scientists and published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Blaine had over one million volts discharged at him continuously for 72 hours from seven Tesla coils and also spent one week submerged in a sphere-shaped aquarium at Lincoln Center, before breaking the world record for breath holding live on the Oprah Winfrey show where he held his breath for over 17 minutes.
In addition to the millions who have seen him on television, Blaine has also entertained audiences of over 20,000 in arenas around the world. He has performed intimately for every sitting American president including Barack Obama in the Oval Office, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush as well as a number of international leaders and prominent figures such as Henry Kissinger, Michael Bloomberg, Stephen Hawking and Muhammad Ali, among others.
