David Blaine is an American illusionist, magician and endurance artist famed internationally for his Street Magic and his extraordinary endurance feats such as being buried alive for seven days and the famous "Frozen in Time" stunt that saw him being encased in a block of ice for 72 hours. He broke several records with such endurance stunts.
He is the son of Patrice Maureen White and William Perez. He has a half-brother named Michael James Bukalo. He became a father for the first time when Alizee Guinochet gave birth to his daughter Dessa in 2011.
In 2008, he held his breath for 17 minutes 4½ seconds and set a world record. The record was however, broken by Tom Sietas few months later that same year.
I just believe that the feeling of wonder is amazing. I am pushing myself as far as I can humanly push myself... I can only hope for the best and expect the worse.David Blaine
My mother encouraged it so much. She was so supportive. Even if as a kid, I would do the dumbest trick, which now that I look back on some things, she would love it, she would say that's amazing, or if I'd make the ugliest drawing, she would hang it up. She was amazing.David Blaine
My only fear is the unknown.David Blaine
