I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be talking about counting this as a world record if it was actually a "magic trick". This is REAL.
I wonder when the "drama" will start? You know he can't just hold his breath for 9 minutes and have it be over... there has to be something that happens at the end... like somebody starts shooting from the grassy knoll or something at the 8:45 mark.
so he has to break a world record while using energy to break out? how is he gonna do that? i almost made it to 5 minutes before it had been 4 minutes since i stopped holding my breath.
Wow... how wel coordinated is this... it will end precisely when most shows are supposed to end before 9pm. Even the news isn't this accurate.
I kinda wish it was fake, and he was able to do it... this all seemed like a big show with no good ending. Maybe he'll combust or something... now that would be a great trick.
