Stuntman David Blaine recently hung upside down for 60 hours from a 44 foot high platform in New York and the proceeded to free fall before his safety harness pulled him back up.
The hanging upside down part was interesting, but not really that exciting. When people think of David Blaine they think of his rediculously dangerous stunts and insane magic tricks, this was a little more dull than what people expected. David Blaine has done some amazing stunts in his time and people were a little disappointed this time around.
I do feel bad for Blaine though. He is getting all kinds of attacks from the media about what a joke his stunt was, and I say, if it was such a joke, why don't other people do it? I personally couldn't hang upside down for that long. I can't even imagine what kind of headache he had to have had.
Ease up people, hanging upside down is extremely hard on the human body, according to the New York Daily article. The doctor that was quoted in the article claimed that hanging upside down is extremely bad for your kidneys. Take it easy on Blaine, I'm sure he will soon baffel us with another stunt or magic trick.
