David Blaine will be suspended above the ice rink in Central Park for 60 hours. It only takes maybe six to get there, so it’s not too late if you want to watch him. . . well, . . . hang there.
Asked why he does the dopey shit he does (I’m sure that’s not how the question was framed), he said this:

“I like to do these things because it gives me a different perspective, for a short duration. But that perspective is important to the rest of my normal existence,” he said.
So, Dave: have you ever done something which altered your perspective to the point that you realized what a useless douchebag you are to the rest of us? You should try something like that.
