Real-time Blaining

8pm – the show begins.

8:01pm – this is horrible. Fast forward to the end.

9:45pm – David is getting a countdown to when he is going to start the “magic trick”

9:45:30 – 30 more seconds until he starts

9:45:55 – Fuck this, I can hold my breath for 9 minutes too, I’m going for it.

9:46 – I take my last breath. My record breaking breath hold begins.

15 seconds – This is going to be easy.

30 seconds - The clock is practically moving in fast motion. This is the worlds easiest trick.

1 minute – still strong. 1 down, 8 to go.

1:05 – wait, 8 more to go?

1:15 – I gotta start listening to Blaine’s coach. Soothing techniques probably work well.

1:30 – yep. Eyes closed. My feet are relaxed. My whole body is now using less energy. On my way.

1:45 – fuck.

1:50 – I might die

1:55 – I gotta beat this fucker.

2:00 – my lungs are going to explode.

2:04 – UUGUGHGH!!!

2:05 – I didn’t make it. I can’t breath. I can’t see. Am I dead? Grandpa? What are you doing in my bedroom? You’re dead, you can’t be here. What’s going on?

2:30 – I regain consciousness.

3:00 – I think Blaine is starting to undo his chains or something. I don’t care. He cheated. He was trained by Navy Seals. This show sucks.

7:00 – HA! You little bitch. You fell way short. You suck. I rule. I’d have made it to 9 minutes if I didn’t go to the bar earlier tonight.

7:10 – ahh, in true, David “I used to bang Fiona Apple” fashion, he’s having two hot chicks pull him from the water.

7:20 – whoa, that one chick has a meaty ass.

7:45 – Oh my God, that’s not a chick. I need more oxygen.

David Blaine is a shit magician. Magicians don't live in a box and hold their breath, they pull rabbits out of hats and saw people in half. I didn't see one rabbit in that fishbowl.

Holly {ArtistMotherTeacher} said...

Or one fish. Unless you count the flounder that is DB.

bj- no doubt.

hk - I forgot to do that. Next time.

steph - whatever! liar.

tpp - Yeah, then when they broke up he started banging a chick that looks exactly like her.

pix - she's a total liar.

conti - thanks man. thanks.

ogo - I felt so gay when I realized one was a dude.

sarah - he's an awesome street magician, he just needs to stop doing this endurance bullshit. I love how people in london threw shit at him when he was in his box over there.

pix - ha. good one.

Michael Jackson once said, "David Blaine, your magic is real. I beleive in you!"

Tim, you are a homo. Leave Titso and go shack up with the "dude looks like a lady" from Blaine's special
