Subject: David Blaine in giant 'gyroscope' stunt
Written By: Philip Eno on 11/23/06 at 2:32 pm
David Blaine has begun his latest stunt, spinning inside a gyroscopic device above the streets of New York.
Blaine will dangle near Times Square for almost three days before attempting to escape from some shackles.
"This is more difficult than anything I've ever done," Blaine said before he was loaded into the contraption, which was then hoisted up 50ft (15m).
The three spinning steel rings can flip Blaine in various directions up to eight times per minute.
The shackles will be added to Blaine on Thursday, giving him 16 hours to free himself.
The illusionist said his biggest concerns, besides not eating or drinking, were the freezing weather and dizziness.

I'm still trying to figure out how Harry Houdini did most of his tricks. Has David fully recovered from his last stunt that didn't go quite as well as planned?

Now he gets to take kids shopping at Target on the busiest shopping day in America. I think I might have been tempted to stay in the gyroscope thingy. ;D

For his next 'trick', let's see Blainey get across one side of London to the other in peak rush using only public transport within...let's see...four days?
He'd give up within minutes...
