Daredevil stuntman David Blaine lit up New York's Pier 54 Friday (Oct. 5) for his latest high voltage feat.
The illusionist will spend the next three days and nights standing in the middle of a million volts of electric currents streamed by tesla coils. For the stunt, the 39-year-old is wearing a chainmail bodysuit as a barrier between himself and the electric currents. He has a wire helmet on, a visor to shield his eyes, and hearing protection for his ears.
Blaine won't be able to eat but will have a tube for water in and another tube for water out, so to speak. Because he fasted for days beforehand, he doesn't expect any other bodily waste.
