David Blaine has made a habit of blowing people’s minds. The magician and mentalist is known for such feats of endurance as burying himself alive for seven days and holding his breath for more than 17 minutes. But he’s also gone viral with his filmed magic tricks, often shot on the street as strangers observe and react to them.
It continues that in expressing their disbelief, people have been known to run away screaming or even burst into tears while Blaine maintains his deadpan, stoic facade. Their responses are often as memorable as the trick itself — such as when Harrison Ford pulled his playing card from inside a freshly cut orange and promptly told the illusionist, “Get the f*** outta my house.”
“Exactly, I’m the one running away screaming, going, “That’s crazy!” That’s what’s different about this show. And that’s how I really am when I see my favorite magicians do things — I scream and go crazy. But when I’d doing magic for others, I have to not react. You can see the real me peek through sometimes. In my first show, Street Magic, there are girls who run away screaming at me in Times Square, and if you look closely, you can see me crack a smile. But I try so hard not to,” says Blaine.
Regional restrictions may apply.
