Before Blaine was romantically linked to the French model and mother of his child, he was dating another European catwalk dweller. David Blaine was in a relationship with Dutch model Lonneke Engel in The model began modeling at the age of 12 and worked for fashion labels such as Guess, Versace, Roberto Cavalli, and Chanel.
After hitting the catwalks for almost 20 years Engel retired from modeling in , focusing on her lifestyle site Organice Your Life.
Blaine then turned his attention to one of the most famous women in the world and allegedly had a fling with pop sensation Madonna. He was born in Brooklyn as the son of schoolteacher Patrice White and William Perez, with his father being a veteran of the Vietnam War.
While living in the city, Blaine found magic. When he was just four years old he spotted a magician in the subway which inspired a lifetime of illusion and trickery. It looks like he must have shark teeth to get through the metal, but then he somehow manages to restore the coin to its original state. In David Blaine went through one of the scariest tricks he could have ever chosen, to be electrified with one million volts.
It was all made possible as Blaine wore a special suit that conducted the electricity. That meant he was not in any real danger, so long as the suit held up under the strain of the million volts!
David Blaine really commits himself to his tricks, and in he froze himself in a huge block of ice in Times Square, New York. The magician spent 63 hours encased in ice, with water and air supplied to him through a tube while he went to the toilet via another tube. Once again it was about endurance for Blaine, as he had to be cut from the ice by chainsaws and then rushed to the hospital to prevent him from going into shock.
It was a trick he performed several times while stood in front of stars like Drake, Dave Chappelle, and Steph Curry.
Blaine asked them to think of and draw a small animal. When they drew a frog, Blaine proceeded to cough the animals up one at a time. These include being buried alive, hanging upside down for 40 hours, being encased in a massive block of ice and fasting for 44 days. How does he do it? What techniques does he use? Hoping to answer this questions, we have revealed some of David Blaine's most famous tricks. With his first television special, Street Magic , Blaine established himself as a master of conjuring and a quirky innovator.
The first magic special to concentrate on the amazed audience instead on the magician, Street Magic was considered a great breakthrough. But Blaine was all but finished. Determined to prove himself as an endurance artist too, he went on to perform all kinds of endurance feats and break some world records. Blaine will be returning to TV screens tonight, April 1 at 10 p. Dre, Jamie Foxx and James Corden. There will be more appearances throughout the one-hour special as well.
It may have taken more preparation than some other tricks, though. After that, he would have had to repeatedly pierce himself in that same area to create an extended area of scar tissue and an artificial pathway through his flesh. The same method may have been used when he put an ice pick through his hand.
If he is to be believed, that was the method he used, according to The Telegraph. List of Partners vendors. Featured Video. Read More. Your Privacy Rights.
