Stunt artist David Blaine, immersed in an 8-foot
sphere filled with water, interacts with visitors observing his latest stunt,
which is spending a week living in the sphere, in the plaza of New York's
Lincoln Center, Monday May 1, 2006. The shirtless, 33-year-old magician, an
oxygen tube in his mouth, in a week will try to hold his breath underwater to
surpass a record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds. In an added display of extreme
multitasking, Blaine will try to escape from 150 pounds of chains and handcuffs
during the breath-holding finale on live television. [AP]
