Dans ce témoignage très personnel provenant de TEDMED, le magicien et cascadeur David Blaine raconte comment il en est arrivé à retenir son souffle sous l'eau pendant 17 minutes -- un record du monde (juste une minute de moins que la durée totale de ce témoignage !)-- et ce que son métier, qui défie souvent la mort, signifie pour lui. AVERTISSEMENT : N'essayez pas de reproduire ceci chez vous.

With a deck of cards and authoritative cool, David Blaine brings the wonderment of magic off the stage and onto the sidewalk. Full bio »
