Called a “latter day Houdini,” David Blaine has not only redefined magic but also set new boundaries for human endurance. He holds several world records, including one for holding his breath underwater for 17 minutes and 4 seconds. Blaine will give The Richmond Forum audience a rare look behind the physical feats that have expanded our understanding of what the human body can do; from the sources of the ideas, to his research and physical preparation, to the feats themselves...all undertaken for the purpose of making us believe the unbelievable.
