Well, if he sees himself as a success, then I guess more power to him. Personally I wanted to laugh at him for undertaking such a silly task. If he had planned to fail to make a point... Well, I am not a huge fan of that style of performance art, but at least I could see that.

I think he made a fool of himself and then came up with a story to try and save face.
Magic is like Science,
Both are fun if you do it right!

Although the article title described him as an 'Escape Artist,' it looks like that description was merely a way to get people interested enough to click and view. He's described in the actual video as a performance artist. His 'act' looks a lot more like performance art than escape as well. It's probably fair to say that he didn't do this as an escape attempt, but as a work of symbolism, illustrating the futility of escaping history.

I bet he can sell his marble clippings as art now though. Now if he had been body searched and sneaked the happier and chisel in I would have been impressed. Looks like he was nearly there to be honest.

Still at least he's better than some I won't name.....you know who they are.....

I'll bet the marble slab with the chain still attached is in a gallery somewhere.

Now that was an engaging read and a bit of a testament to ingenuity. Of course pudding in my neck of the woods would be utterly useless, but would make a tasty dessert while I'm freezing to death. I wonder if he could free himself from a block of marble?
