Page Six analyzes David Blaine's career in their own special way in a recent article focused on the failed ending of "Dive of Death. The author even goes so far to claim that members of the magic community feel betrayed by David using the following quote as evidence: "He started to go AWOL with all the stunts. It was very off the deep end," says Brad Christian, CEO of Ellusionist, a Web site that trains and supports aspiring street magicians. "To a majority of magicians, he is a bit of a joke now." Most of the balance of the article focuses on his past love interests, the various stunts that he has staged as a part of each special and selected quotes from acquaintances which seem to reenforce the slant of the piece.
