Illusionist David Blaine’s latest stunt will leave him breathless.
The death-defying New York daredevil will submerge himself in “a human aquarium” on the Upper East Side for seven days and seven nights before he has his breathing gear removed on live TV and attempts to break the world’s record for underwater breath-holding – 8 minutes and 58 seconds.
Blaine announced the stunt at Lincoln Center’s Josie Robertson Plaza, where he’ll make a splash starting Monday.
