David Blaine did it. When he announce that he’s gonna attempt to beat the world record in breath holding live on Oprah, it all seemed so distant and now he’s the bearer of the world’s record for breath holding.

After a month of preparations, David Blaine went under water for 17 minutes and 4 seconds on today’s Oprah’s Show. Previous breath holding world record was set in Switzerland and the crazy held his breath for 16 minutes and 32 seconds. David Blaine had an uneasy task of trying to beat that.

Is this shit real or fake? I don’t know. It was on Oprah show and above is the video. Who knows? David’s magic is all a big fluke start to end, so who knows. But apparently Guinness Book of World Records reps were there, monitoring all activity, making sure that everything is worthy a mention in the book. Which could mean he did hold his breath for real.

17 minutes without breathing is pretty impressive. I’m kind of having hard time believing this is possible. I go all tipsy and my vision goes to pooper after 40 seconds. I can’t imagine anyone not providing any oxygen to their brain for 17 minutes. Kind of weird.

BTW - didn’t David Blaine used to call himself a magician? If so, dd he run out of all magic trick ideas that he needed to attempt a Guinness World record in breath holding? Maybe he never was a magician.

As much as I think David Blaine is a complete moron, he chose right show for his record, because Oprah is yet more annoying than him and her lameness outshined David’s. Congrats.

Brooklyn born magician David Blaine mostly known for his street magic is set to break Guinness World Record by holding his breath for more than 16 minutes and 14 seconds. This is current no breathing Guinness World Record and David Blaine is determined to break it. He already made one attempt at breaking it back in 2006, but failed miserably at it.

This time around he’s taking it live on Oprah. I’m guessing if you’re gonna kill some of your brain cells by restraining the influx of fresh air to it, you may as well do it live on Oprah so you don’t turn into a brain dead zombie for nothing. The date has been set on April 30th this year. Go David Blaine.

David has done some crazy shit before, some of which involved him being buried in a coffin alive for a week, other involved him living in water for a week and he also completed 44 days long fasting. So David Blaine has done some crazy shit before, what’s some breath holding for a mofo like him.

BTW - that’s gonna be some boring shit to watch on Oprah show. What’s there to see watching a dude hold his breath for 20 minutes? It’s not like he’ll be swinging his naked balls on camera while he’s holding a grip on his nostrils.
