Drowned alive



Greg and Sammy did not want to go to sleep tonight. Instead, they wanted to watch David Blaine. This performance artist and magician has been living underwater for a week in an eight-foot acrylic sphere in New York City's Lincoln Center.

To culminate his stunt, he attempted to break the world record for breath-holding underwater, which was 8 minutes, 58 seconds while trying to escape from 150 pounds of chains and handcuffs during the breath-holding finale.

In the end, he was able to stay under water longer than Greg and Sammy were able to stay awake.
