that man is unbelievable..i saw some shows with him on tv and i also searched for some clips on the internet...i know each magic trick had an explanation but his tricks are beyond imagination..and impossible to figure out..he actually walks the streets,stops a stranger and asks him if he wants to see some magic..he makes things dissapear and reappear in weird places,he even levitates...i have no idea how he does it and if it's just an ilusion or he actually knows magic..what is your opinion?

yes i love david blain and cris angel to!
but look ehat have he acopliced!
Blaine's final underwater attempt was short of the world-record (8 minutes, 58 seconds), but Blaine succeeded in demonstrating his rock-solid focus and absolute dedication to his craft.
Chained to the bottom of the sphere aquarium in Lincoln Center, Blaine remained absolutely motionless for the first five minutes of the stunt. This inactivity had the objective of conserving energy and oxygen. At the five minute mark exactly, Blaine slowly began to escape from the chains that bound him to the bottom of the tank.
After escaping from the 150+ pounds of solid steel chains, Blaine stood back upright in the tank as he held his breath as long as possible. He began to tremble. He began to twitch. And after an excruciating 7 minutes underwater, Blaine exhibited signs of distress.
His emergency dive team stormed the tank and immediately brought him to the surface. He was still and motionless. With the aid of oxygen, he gradually regained his composure enough to address the crowd and the people of New York City-- his home, his life, and his audience

Yeah, as was said he's the new David. He's really good. Here's a link to his website. He has a show called Mindfreak on A&E every Wednesday as well.

David Blaine is very good at what he does. The illusions that he pulls off in the streets is things that I would like to do myself. He was the start of bringing magic back to an art form and entertainment. If you know how he does it, then it's no longer magic for you is it? All of the tricks that he does can be explained and is for those who want to know (like myself), but if you enjoy what he does then just enjoy the magic he brings when his shows come out. As far as Criss Angel, different types of illusions from David. Criss Angel did more grand stage magic and is doing these illusions in the streets. Both men are great illusionists, I would like to someday become as good as these guys.
