Illusionist David Blaine has spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday at New York’s Pier 54 executing an elabroate stunt. Fun to watch perhaps but as commentators have pointed out (and the video gets wrong) Blaine has not been electrocuted. That would be news. The voltage is running through his suit, not him. In fact, writers at the tech webiste BetaBeat point out the Blaine has ripped off early 20th Century inventor Nikola Tesla who did much the same thing without the promotional tool of the Internet of course.
