David Blaine Hospitalized After Electrified Stunt?

Who knows how accurate this is, but Australian paper The Herald Sun is reporting that David Blaine was hospitalized after his 72-hour Electrified stunt this weekend.

ILLUSIONIST David Blaine has been taken to hospital after completing his three-day electrifying stunt in New York. For 72 hours, without food, the 39-year-old magician stood on a podium 6 metres above the ground and channelled one million volts of electricity through his metal suit at Pier 54 in Manhattan’s Chelsea district.

That was the longest Blaine had gone without sleep for a stunt. If this is true, we hope he was only brought in for minor issues.

    I;m shocked! This is a reVOLTing development. He’s CURRENTly doing OK, and has the CAPACITY of getting well. More POWER to him.

    He probably went to get his vitals checked after the stunt, which would be routine.
    Also, he did 72 hours of magic–non-stop, without sleep–in 2010 to raise money for Haiti, so he’s done 72 hours of sleep deprivation before.

    Yes, okay, I was thinking of the word ‘battery’. How do you do that? ;-)

  • HAL

    @DVCPRO:disqus Just one of my many talents.

  • SNOW

    For the exception of writing lyrics ;-)

  • HAL

    @DVCPRO:disqus I thought my lyrics were terrific. BTW: Another song for you.

    Yes, okay, your lyrics were terrific Hal, now don’t blow up the ship ;-) That video struck a chord ;-) . I tried to post a video response, but it didn’t get posted I’m assuming because Justin is trying to tell me something…maybe it’s just late going up. But despite that, please stop posting Maybe videos Hal. I’ve been completely struck by him. I already feel like a complete fool and stupid love struck idiot. I wish you’d talk some sense into me. Some stupid hormone is controlling my thoughts I’m sure! lol. I know if you told the truth you’d tell me I’m an idiot to continue trying. Why won’t you say that!!! lol He’s a freak of nature that shouldn’t exist and I just need to forget him and I’ll meet someone local. Do you ever recall me talking such nonsense in the past? Even I think I’m an idiot lol. You’re not helping me! :( I bet if you don’t mention him and I digitally silence him, he’ll be forgotten in a month tops. I need to bury myself in work like he does.
