Really? You'd be amazed by the stolen nose trick and the stunning missing thumb tip:o:o
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
If you look closely, you can see that there is a "cushion" to absorb the shock, it is just very hard to see because of the shape and because it matches his skin color; pay attention to the sound it makes when Kimbo hits him, it doesn't sound like a punch over a human plus, why do you think David only lift up his shirt a bit and do not remove it totally?
Thus said, I cannot explain many of Blaine or Chris Angel tricks, these guys are very talented for street magic. However, I found out how they did a few of them by watching closely to their video, a little bit like the famous "walk on water" thing.
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
Lucky for Kimbo Blaine didn`t counter. Could easily have been another one on the loss column for Slice. :-X

i am not sure Blaine trains his stomach as much as the professional boxers and if you look carefully, his chest is not exactly ripped with abs crushing from everywhere :) That would be awesome though if he could give magic tricks to Kimboboy.

Its not like he stood there and took it like it was nothing, he knocked across the ring;D Anyone who has strong abs would take that straight shot, obviously they would need to be of a similar size otherwise theyd get knocked back further but even then, it wouldnt cripple them.
Try that taking a hook to the body from a young Tyson;) Not only would he have been splattered in to the cage, hed have had a rib puncturing his lung;D
I think you're wrong mate. He let the guy set himself, line upi the punch and hit him with full force in the gut, if you aren't impressed with that I don't know what would impress you
It's not that it's unimpressive, it's just looks more impressive than it is.
He just times it properly, which he can quite easily do as he knows and can see that it's coming. It's the ones you aren't prepared for that hurt.
Tense your abs and step with the punches force like he did and it's barely above mediocre to be honest.
I'd like to see himtry it in a planted stance so that he absorbs 100% of the blow... :D
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
...how many fights have you seen stopped by a straight directly to the midsection???
99.9% (just an educated guess) of all bodyshot KO/TKO's are from either hooks or uppercuts. And when a cross does drop someone it's on the sides and not straight down the pipe like that.
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
Choreographed by Ang Lee, John Woo, and Samu Hung.

LOL.
Samu Hung is you're favorite martial artist noh? hehehe.
David Blaine is great and I could not really understand how he does his tricks. He reads minds too. ;D I have been watching his tricks every Thursday night at AXN. :-X
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
Breaking the Magician's Code: Magic's Biggest Secrets Finally Revealed is shown on AXN too. david blaine and criss angels tricks are revealed on that show.
i learned the ripping of chicken head in the province, the chickens neck is flexible enough that you can hide the head underneath its wing. its the same trick we do with our thumb.
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
So this really happened? I can not find the video anywhere
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
I saw it on TV, I was suprised at how ripped David Blaine was. His abs were bulging. That suprised me.
Plus the fact he stepped back slightly as the punch hit took away some of the impact ;)
Re: David Blaine taking a punch from Kimbo
Check channel 4 OD. I saw it on E4 a few weeks back, was a one off I think.
The whole show was decent enough.
