    Hey Everyone,

    Anyone else see about this stunt he's doing right now in NYC? I saw it this morning on ABC News, he's going to stay in that water globe for a week.

    After watching his show a few years ago I decided to learn the Baldacci levitation trick.

    It freaks people out!!! :eek: :eek:

    There was a man who tried this stunt before on Ripleys Believe it or not. He had a problem because the water tank became hot because it is totaly exposed to the sun. Then they thought putting blocks of ice in the water will solved the problem :DLOL:D. After they put ice in the water ofcourse the water became so cold that the stunt guy quit.

    Levitating is fake. The Baldacci technique is only for getting a few inches off the air. Its a simple illusion :)

    When I was a kid I practiced breathing from the water gushing into the public swimming pool. It worked pretty good sometimes. Now, I just use scuba, which is way more awesome than floating around in a glass ball full of water for a week.

    The coolest story I was told was of a diver who was able to run his hand along the side of a 12 foot six-gill shark and decided to hold on to the tail in hopes of getting pulled along. In an instant, the shark bent full around and was looking him in the face. He loosended his grip and the animal swam away.

    That would never happen in a glass globe. Consquently, it sounds b-o-r-i-n-g

    Shame he's in NYC, I doubt anyone will chuck stuff at him or bang on the glass... you Americans are too accepting of his stunts. ;)

    I was on the Tower Bridge when he started his 40 days 40 nights fast stunt and because I was working near, visited a couple times during the stunt. I like the guy - his stare freaks me out but he does cool things IMO. Like his style a lot better than those shows in Vegas style.

    The chicken head trick is funny too.

    Have his video somewhere I just remembered...
