David Blaine's only been in the bubble for one day, but his hands are sore, and the skin is peeling off. He's hanging in there though.
"I wasn't prepared for the hands - that's a little bit of a scary sign because all the skin is starting to come off," he said. "My body's responding, but it's also coping. It could be a lot worse."
The Aquaman wanna-be was alternating between a diving helmet, which allowed him to conduct media interviews, and a simple mouthpiece attached to a breathing tube.
He also passed the time practicing holding his breath for his ABC television special Monday.
In a stunt reminiscent of Houdini, Blaine will be thrown into the water in chains, minus breathing gear - and plans to hold his breath for nine minutes.
The crowd was almost entirely supportive, with teen girls holding signs proposing marriage, grown women mouthing "you're hot" and one man kissing the glass.
Nice. So at least he's in good spirits. By Monday, he's gonna be shriveled down to nothing at this rate.
