Loony Londoners Lose It

Loony Londoners Lose It

Why is this such a big deal to some fringe Londoners? A few people seem to be truly bothered by the fact that David Blaine is currently suspended above some small piece of London in a box. He's trying to "go without food" for 44 days.

Look folks, IT'S JUST A MAGIC TRICK. I don't know how he does it. I don't care. It's a neat stunt. By why would this bother some people so much that they would throw things at him or even hit golf balls at him? As for the bare body parts . . . this is a problem? ;-)

Since Blaine began his stunt he has suffered a barrage of abuse and mockery. Eggs have been thrown and he has been subjected to taunts. Other people have bared their breasts or bottoms, while at one stage he was even the target of a golf ball hit from Tower Bridge.
