Just to let anyone who hasn't already heard...DB's record for most time in an ice block was just broken by some Lithuanian illusionists :( it was only by a couple of hours though. Just a newsflash.

Well, in recent years, I've heard that the whole thing was an illusion using a double. Whenever they would spray the cube to freeze it, Blaine and his double would switch out. I have a lot of respect for Blaine, and I know he's a strong person, so I don't think that's true.

The illusion was explained by the masked magician, but I do not believe him.

The masked magician also claims that Blaine's world record for holding your breath is false. I would think that if someone was going to break a world record, the...world...record...committee? (I don't know) would make sure it was authentic.

Indeed. They would.

I have much respect for Blaine, and yes, he did it first.
