David Blaine’s Next Televised Stunt

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Specials, ABC, News

David Blaine in Sphere

He’s lived in a sphere, slept in a block of ice, fasted in a hoisted box and balanced on a tall platform. Now he’s prepared to turn his world upside-down. Literally.

Next month, street magician David Blaine will once again dazzle the residents of New York with another one of his famous endurance challenges. Armed with electro-magnetic boots, the daredevil will hang by his feet from a thin wire for approximately 60 hours. Although he’ll have the ability to walk around, he won’t be given a safety net should he fall. Did I mention that he’ll be doing this over Central Park’s Wollman Rink?

That upcoming spectacle will be just a small part of Criss Angel: Mindfreak‘s fourth season. In total, the series will air 15 new episodes and 3 one-hour specials in this next round.

Mindfreak debuts July 23 @ 10pm. See a sneak preview of what’s to come after the jump.

Without a token model to cast off this time around, the viewers of ultimately based their first set of votes on sheer ability.

For the show’s first double-elimination, there were little surprises to be had.  After Monday’s numbers were combined with last week’s scores, magician Penn Jillette and tennis star Monica Seles both found themselves one foot out the door.  (Their grand totals of 33 and 30, respectively, were the lowest of the competition.)  Tonight, the fans gently pushed them the rest of the way out.

At this stage last fall, Josie Maran and Albert Reed were the first two to be let go.  The real shockers didn’t start developing until several weeks in.  Could we eventually see a Sabrina Bryan-esque elimination this season?  If so - when do you think it will happen?  Place your bets now!
