David Blaine: Do Not Attempt

While all the "tricks" are rather remarkable and amazing. And the series in overall pretty interesting......

I find Blaine's "comatose-like" narration just sleep inducing. He speaks fine, and NORMAL, in the "live" footage at the settings with other people. No issue.

But then the voice over narration kicks in and it feels like it's at half speed and designed to lull you to sleep. Or perhaps somewhat condescending in nature. The narration is entirely unsavory to me for some reason.

There is quite a bit of "filler" in each episode.. but ultimately the things on display are pretty miraculous and worth the watch.. truth is, one doesn't *really* need the audio anyway.

This show is explores David Blaine like we have never seen before. The stunts he pulls are intense, but he also does a great job in tying them to the culture of places he visits. David also opens up alot personally with stories of past magic performances and we also see a more human side to this magician that we haven't really seen before. We also get an inside peak to his mind and motivations with personal stories. If you are a fan of David Blaine or if you are fascinated by him this show is definitely for you. For me he opens up that magical imagination inside of you that ponders for the unknown. David Blaine is a treasure.

Absolutely magical! David Blaine and the people he meets around the world will literally give you goosebumps. This show is absolutely phenomenal. Don't miss out on the opportunity to watch this show as it is probably one of the best you will see in 2025. Traveling the world and finding people who do amazing things with years of training. This journey David takes you on is one you will never forget. The show is a home run and will leave you wanting more. From cobra's to katana swords to being under the ice and much more. You will never see anything like this again David Blaine at his best!!!!!!

I'm all for magic and sleight of hand and stuff like that, but David always took it a notch further, I hardly believed his videos thinking that might be AI, until I stumbled upon this documentary.. Sure there's no such thing as magic but the hunger to learn has earned the respect I have for David, mann, he went all out in search of knowledge, and that is commendable, we see magicians performing and think it's a piece of cake for them but never have we understood the trials and ordeals they go thru to perfect one act.. This episode was just incredible..I always perceived David as an egoistic guy, but this documentary changed my perception about him.. U guys nailed it...

This was one of my favorite David Blaine thing since his earlier specials a decade or more ago! Its beautifully shot, the stunts these people do around the world is so motivating, and for david blaine to learn and perform these things is insane! Kissing a king cobra? Just breaking a bottle over your head? The arctic episode, the placing fire on your head...like wow! Just wow! This makes me have the urge to travel to all these places and befriend all these amazing people. Our world is so much more beautiful and amazing than we know. Blaine has outdone hinself with this docuseries. Highly recommend watching this series. I really hope he makes another series like this as I know theres many more amazing places and amazing people in the world :)
