DAVID BLAINE and his "Shadoobie on a Crane"
yesterday i went into central park to see what all the hype was about with david blaine and his "dive of death". or as i like to now refer to it as "taking a shadoobie on a crane". kinda like samuel l. jackson's "snakes on a plane", but much more anti-climactic and lacking any sort of entertainment value. or snakes.when i got there david blaine was not upside down at all, but on a crane going to the bathroom in a gatorade bottle underneath a blanket. for 45 minutes!
when he finally went back upside down, you could actually stand in line and talk to him face-to upside down-face. i thought this idea was sweet until i saw the mass chaos of his "closest fans" storm the area complete with david blaine posters for him to sign while upside down.
but after waiting for him to get done with his business on the crane, this close-up picture i got of him was about all the patience i had left.so back to my "snakes on a plane" reference...if david blaine was wrapped around with a man-eating anaconda boa constricting python WHILE being suspended upside down, and he needed to stand up on a crane to get life-saving serum, now we're talking!
