David Blaine, America's illustrious magician is being called a cheat in his latest stunt. His latest big stunt requires him to hang upside down for 60 hours, but too much dismay of his fans, a fan photographed him standing upright. Apparently Blaine had been taking breaks from being hung upside down by every once in awhile standing upright. He would do this 3 times within each hour.
This news of Blaine cheating has gotten many to call him a fake, but is it even possible for someone to hang for 60 hours upside down without dying? David Blaine's representative said that he never intended to stay upside down for 60 consecutive hours. Supposedly he must come out once an hour for a stretch and medical check because hanging upside down that long can kill you by blood rushing into your head. Doctors told him that he must once in awhile lift his head above his heart. I can't say I blame Blaine, but it takes a bit of the magic out of the stunt.
The spectacle of David Blaine's 60 hour hanging will include a "Dive of Death" and he will fall 44 feet to the ground. David Blaine was upside down over Central Park's Wollman ice skating rink in New York City. (c) tPC
