David Blaine Vs. David Copperfield
Magic is a type of performance to deceive the eye of its audience, which is also
directly related to an Illusionist. David Blaine and David Copperfield are known for
being great Illusionists. They differentiate in their tricks one is a main street performer,
whereas the other performs on stage. One considers his performance to be based off
endurance, whereas the other entertains the crowd in theatrical performances. Even
though they are both Illusionist, they both have broken world records, and they also give
back to the community by doing charitable activities.
David Blaine is a well known street performer from (Burying himself alive for 7
days), to (The risk of being electrocuted by a million volts).
