love david. his emotion even though he shows very little. its a huge part of what makes him as a magician and personality so alluring. his smile when he does it but also the blank stare is more dramatic because he only inserts the smiles when it fits perfect which im sure comes natural to him but im so impressed by him always. my favourite magician

Lesson learned. If a magician is trying to convince you that what they're doing is real, it's a trick and if a magician tries to convince you that it's fake they really are pushing a fucking needle through their arm

And what about his skin? Rebuilds itself?

Mc lovin

7y↑393

naw you ever seen the dude who had a sword through his stomach? if you do it enough times with proper precautions the skin and muscles will heal and turn into scar tissue and stay like that. so he basically has stuck it through his arm enough so that when he does it himself he can find the proper path the needle needs to go and makes it through.

I doubt the scar tissue thing is real. Not through his arm and both hands.

Jeffman12

6y↑129

A clean and well made/maintained needle won't leave much tissue damage for the body to repair. No air is introduced into the puncture, it's relatively thin, so the pressure exerted normally by the body's tissues is enough to keep the wound sealed together. Because the needle only has a point, and not an edge, he didn't have to really worry about it severing any blood vessels. There'd actually be less scarring from this sort of damage.

You can tell David was actually in a lot of pain. He's just a mastermind of body language, so he hides it well unless you're looking for it. He was clearly very adamant about getting the needle out, and actually looked at the camera visibly frustrated when Ricky was stalling at around 2:50. His grins are disguised winces of pain. And while the needle was in, he swallowed several times, which he typically never does because he keeps so cool when the tension is high. I'm not sure how he did the act itself, but it entailed a whole lot of physical pain. What a trooper.

Blaine has come into his own. As a magician and someone who practised magic from the age of 9 until... I'm 31 now; blaine was always... let's say - not liked, by magicians, as he had no presentation and just did simple tricks; BUT his recent 'dark' tricks suit his personality so well. He's found his lane.

So that is real. I’ve seen it done before by a guy named Zamora the Torture King. I remember him explaining it about 20 years ago when we brought him to campus. Was part of a student group through the religious studies department that brought people to IUP. Part of a lecture on Sufism, the mystical sort of elements of Islam. Don’t remember anything about the lecture but will never forget him shoving legit metal rods through his lip and arm and other places and trying not to look away.

I've seen a lot of magic tricks, and most of them have a logical explanation (camera angles, video edition, paid actors, etc). But this particular trick is the only one that really blows my mind. I've searched a lot trying to find an explanation but I haven't found anything that answers this. As a med student I can't understand how this can be possibly done; I even showed this video to my traumatology teacher. He was speechless.

Sergius Aleksandros

It’s not a trick. It’s all real. I’m just gonna say one thing: scar tissue. Being a med student, now you realize how he did it. Your teacher is not very bright, I’m afraid...

David probably did the same thing as “Arnold Gerret Henskes” A.K.A “Mirin Dajo” just on a much smaller scale than the legend Arnold did. Arnold was able to stick full on swords through his chest and sides by being hypnotized for the first pass, and then healing properly (because the first pass actually caused damage and drew lots of blood). After healing from the first pass and probably numerous more passes/healings it creates a scar tissue passage for future piercings to go through without bleeding and causing damage. Pain is likely still very real though

A normal pointy needle would need a tremendous amount of force to go inside the skin at that diameter. I think he's searching a kind of channel with scar tissue (from actually piercing his arm before and letting it heal). That's why It's not bleeding and why he's searching a spot on his skin to insert the needle.

You know, David actually took inspiration from another magician from many years ago who would do the same "trick", but with a rapier through his abdomen. So it could've been a lot worse.

Pallas

He did stick it through his arm. There are ways of slowly feeling the needle through your arm in which you can avoid all the vessels and arteries (which is why there was no blood) and to minimize pain. It takes a lot of practice and very steady hands. There are even videos of gurus and such who stick needles through their torsos in the same fashion. It is in fact real.
