As if there is not enough crap hanging off of wires in New York City 1, now there’s a dude hanging upside down in Central Park... oh wait, is this the same asshole who crammed himself in a glass box a few years ago? Indeed. His name is David Blaine and according to Wikipedia he is a “record-holding magician and endurance artist 2″... according to me he is the kid from my psych textbook’s Down’s Syndrome Chapter, all fucking grown up. His resume is pretty impressive (although I’m still trying to find the “magician” stuff). Within the last decade he has been buried alive, froze in a block of ice, stood atop a pole and drowned himself (quite successfully). I’m still not understanding how any of this is amusing and how he manages to make money. Also curious what are his health insurance premiums are like and who he is blowing to even have life insurance... which I’m fairly certain he’s got...
OK.... You’re a fucking wackjob. Got my attention. I’m curious.
