How I Held My Breath for 17 Minutes: David Blaine’s TED Talk

I was in bed a bit early last night, and ended up installing a TED app for my iPhone. I’m a big fan of the TED talks, and ended up spending some time just watching a few videos, straight from my phone (which was pretty awesome).

The one I wanted to share here was by magician David Blaine, and how he held his breath for 17 minutes. Initially, I found his slow manner of delivery a little annoying, but after a little bit… it became endearing. Out of everything I’ve seen by him, the ending of this talk was the most surprising.
