He was buried alive. He remained in a block of ice for more than two days. He stood on a 100-foot high pillar without a harness for more than a day. And this summer he’s … reading. Famed magician David Blaine dared to share his favorite books with us.

I love the Alchemist, it is my favorite book! EVER! I feel that if you don't read it once a year, at least, then you should get the podcast of it and listen to it at least once a year. Amazing!
