STORYLINE:
Stunt artist David Blaine was pulled from an aquarium by divers nearly two minutes short of his goal of setting a world record for holding his breath underwater.
Blaine was trying to free himself from chains and handcuffs while bidding to break the record of eight minutes, fifty-eight seconds for holding one''s breath underwater.
The stunt, following a week-long endurance challenge underwater, was televised live by American network, ABC.
With Blaine''s face contorted in pain and bubbles rising to the surface, divers went in to release him from the chains and pull him out. Blaine held his breath for seven minutes and eight seconds.
After being given oxygen, Blaine addressed the large crowd that had gathered in the plaza of Lincoln Centre for the Performing Arts in Manhattan, where the stunt took place.
"I am humbled so much by the support of everyone from New York City and from all over the world, this was a very difficult week, but you all made it fly by with your strong spirit and your energy," said Blaine.
After a 100-minute television preamble that showed his training techniques - including holding his breath in a tank of sharks, Blaine had sucked in his last breath before going under.
Blaine remained nearly still for the first five minutes of his dive.
Then, methodically, he removed two of his handcuffs and was trying to remove chains that held him before the divers came in to save him.
Blaine started training in December 2005. Doctors who have been monitoring him throughout said the training had taken its toll on the stunt man''s body.
Blaine''s previous feats included balancing on a 22-inch (56-centimetre) circular platform above a 100-foot (30-metre) pole for thirty-five hours, being buried alive in a see-through coffin for a week, and surviving inside a massive block of ice for sixty-one hours, all of which were performed in New York.
In 2003, he fasted for forty-four days in a suspended acrylic box over the Thames River in London, UK.

I thought she was just gonna walk there and be finished. Then she turned around...
Tried to hold my breath until she was done with the 2nd round (1:58). I'll say I did a pretty good job.
If there were record for superhuman walking underwater.. I think it was the Badjao of the Philippines... With no weights and in one breath they can walk farther distance underwater... Lmao it only last for 2 minutes.... badjao last for almost 13 minutes
I can walk underwater more than her
But I need oxygen cylinder lol
There was a guy from 2000 years ago that could do this but above the water.
I can’t even swim
Did anyone else take a huge breath when she came out of the water?

Tried to hold my breath alongside her, then remembered that I don't have the lungs of Poseidon.
Can we just talk about her hair flowing in the water for a moment? Sooo satisfying!
Bruh when i go underwater i go straight back up ??
I got to 1 min 34
To me, she could have gone a lot longer if she wasn’t pushing so hard. She should have moved slower, but I probably have no idea what I’m talking about because I don’t have the world record
Longest underwater walk with one breath!? Damn. That was just like doing planks without breathing! ?
I held my breathe almost to the end of the course thinking I would do good only to find out she did more laps
Wtf?
