David Blaine

David Blaine - London Bridge - Above the Below

LONDON, England (CNN) -- Illusionist David Blaine will end his starvation stunt in a matter of hours amid concerns that he is suffering from heart palpitations and breathing difficulties.
There is also concern that Blaine, 30, may risk sudden death when he begins taking food again.
For the last 44 days, the American magician has been suspended in a glass box next to London's Tower Bridge, with water as his only sustenance.
He is due to emerge on Sunday, sometime after 9 p.m. (2000 GMT), and will be taken directly to hospital.

David Blaine said: "We are all capable of infinitely more than we believe. We are stronger and more resourceful than we know, and we can endure much more than we think we can. In truth, the only restrictions on our capacity to astonish ourselves and each other are imposed by our own minds."

"I have learned more in that little box than I have learned in years. I have learned how important it is to have a sense of humor and laugh at everything because nothing makes any sense anyway.
