It’s been 8 years since daredevil magician David Blaine performed his last outdoor endurance test and, this week, he returns with “Ascension”—dedicated to his young daughter and 10 years in the making.
Blaine will float nearly 3½ miles, into the sky carried by 52 helium-filled weather balloons, before releasing the balloons and parachuting back to earth.
And, because of his danger-defying nature, Blaine will not be wearing a parachute, but will put that on in the air 😮
The event should stream live in 45 hours, here:
on September 1st at 9am (depending on the weather) where Blaine will be ascending above an Arizona desert.Something to look forward and up to!
