Joe Rogan Experience #1527 - David Blaine

that your body is magical and I think that comes from I didn't have a lot of resources like, oh, go look, which is lucky, because then I thought, "Okay, so what can I do with what's around me?" ? An ice pick or a bunch of water or, of course, you." I would be hardworking, yes, not again, but you have to figure it out, but you also have to balance it. I mean, obviously you develop some problems from not eating at the same time and you know you have these. stunts where they have the chance to physically hurt you permanently yeah yeah sorry the risks and rewards yeah there aren't many of those people out there I hope not that's what I say as the people for I wouldn't worry, but Don't worry about yourself, well, I think I'm careful, you know, yeah, I'm still like that, so we did one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, ten, five, five liters, basically, so that's what I think it's like in one go.

I think it's a record. I don't think I've ever done that many. You've never drank so much water. I don't believe it. I think I usually limit it to a gallon. It is dangerous. You can die if you drink too much water. intoxication, yes, yes, but I think that's if you like to eliminate it too much, but when you combine it with other things, then it's dangerous, so that's what the kids in the Tor fraternity have done when they have to do those rituals of hazing correctly. I died from drinking too much water and there was a woman in San Jose, yes it's possible of course it was San Jose where she was on the radio and there was a thing like how much water can you drink and she wanted to win an xbox for a child and she died, yeah, yeah, I think that's when your electrolyte levels go bad, that's when your heart stops working, yeah, just because, then your water becomes too much water in your system and your body doesn't know what Do it and yeah that makes sense yeah yeah and it eliminates and eliminates the imbalance of your electrolytes so when you do something like this do you make sure you consume a lot of electrolytes beforehand because I couldn't eat or do anything if are you going to do the frog and why did they tell my friend my friend told me don't do the frog here it sounds gross I don't want you to have to do that because I'm going to have to listen It definitely sounds gross but you feel good after drinking it all that water so fast, yeah, but I let it go, that's true, most of it, there has to be a lot more inches on purpose, yeah, Jesus, you're a weird man, David Blaine. you really are that's what I meant like what I'm saying there aren't many people like you out there I'm glad you're there I really am I'm glad you're there first of all because I think you're very entertaining, but also because I I love it when I meet a new type of person, you know, and no, I haven't met many people, but you're into this new type, oh and then there's this guy, you know, this is like a whole new frequency of human or just strange, take out the quincy both, but I mean, it's a very strange path you're on, I mean, ultimately, it's like at the end of the day it's.

Trying to figure out how to make things that seem as close to magic as possible and the process is really difficult and complicated and laborious to achieve, but eventually you start to realize, oh, this could seem like magic, what is this or this? Could you know? you seem like a very happy person because of all this you clearly love what you do yes, yes, look at that, you provoked it, yes, yes, that's why I do it, no, you love it, yes, that's the interesting thing, it's such a strange thing to love . No, it's crazy, you fight, be careful, a lot of time, but that, but I mean, it's crazy, maybe, but it's the same, it's the same, you're forcing your body to do things that most people , but you.

Basically, you're living in a place where you have to push through the discomfort and you have to push through what your body is trying to tell you not to do and you push yourself, you know it is and then it's that whole journey of pushing yourself to do things that you physically don't think you can. achieving or setting a goal, that's the best part, I think I'm just fascinated by people who are very far down a path that really looks like the one we've ever talked about. That woman Stephanie Millinger on the podcast before I followed her on Instagram and I know I posted some of her stuff on her Instagram, but she's like a contortionist and she has incredible balance and core strength and she's that small.

Woman who does crazy things with her body like she did this, she stands on her hands and bends her back so that her butt touches her head as if her spine is so flexible that you look at some of the things What she does and they don't. It doesn't seem like it, look at this, look at this, yeah, look at how he does this and look and he's also balancing in these posts, but look at what he does with his back, look at that, that's amazing, amazing, yeah, and then stops with one. hand and he does it by the way he does this like next to a cliff and it's amazing, look at the way his body is contorting, yeah, that's amazing, he's pressing his butt against the top of his head crazier way, as if it weren't like that.

It seems like a person should be able to do that and the amount of physical strength it takes to move your body this way and keep your balance while doing it, it's just the years, yeah, this is what I'm saying, like she's so way down the road see if you can find the one where she bounces on the plates that one in the middle where you see the plate look at this for her to take this is like a standard olympic weightlifting plate so she leaves it for It's on its edge and then you put it on top of a bar, so you have this bar that was like a little chin swinging, yeah, so it's a round thing that bounces on another round thing, it's amazing and then it lifts your whole body. all the way up and up and doing a handstand on this thing, I mean, she's amazing, she's on and on always smiling, always like a joyful love, love this, but the physical strength it takes to do something well and the kind of balance that is who I am. talking about someone who is on this crazy path where if you asked someone if someone could do that you would say no but your body doesn't work that's not how the body works but that's the way it is you just have to take these little baby steps for years and then you look back and you're in a different place and then you also find a version and then you figure out how to make it your own, yeah she took something and then turned it into a complete yes. new art, true, poetic, yes, yes, she is or like the cirque du soleil, like when every time I go to see, I've seen most of the cirque du soleil shows every time I go, I wonder what the fuck how That's it, what do they do?

What are they? They are aliens. Yes, but they are on a path. They are simply too far down this path of extreme dedication. Extreme concentration. And that's what you're doing. You're just doing it with strange physical feats and magic. it's very interesting it's very interesting I'm very happy that you're around I really am I enjoy the fact that a person like you exists oh thank you and I want to thank you for being here too man I really enjoyed the outing It's cool, cool, talking to you too , looking forward to meeting you for a long time.
