Hi all do any of you aculay eat and swallow the razor
blade? I was watching a man on Ripley's Believe It or Not and
he can eat a holl bike and bolts and Razor blade and
Light Bulbs and doctors check his inside and thay whre
just the same as any one else. and if you no of him can you tell me his name

go to my form at [outdated link]

I would strongly not recommend doing that. He's one in a billion. (Or perhaps one in 500million.) But don't do that.

You can actually eat and swallow razor
blades. It is in Swami Mantra, on page 15.

You CAN do a number of strange things to your body, but do you really WANT to?

As Eddie Joseph wrote in "Magic & Mysteries of India" regarding the eye-poking trick: "While you can always substitute another trick, you cannot substitute another eye."

Have you seen the teeth on the guy that ate an airplane? Or should I say, what's left of them?

Actually Tait, since swami was published, the metal that razor blades are made out of has changed. They used to dissolve quickly in stomach acid. Not any more! Now they don't dissolve at all. Even if you get them in your stomach safely, they will want to work their way round your body and back out. Nasty

You can fake it. Jim Steinmeyer has a version of the needle trick in his excellent book, Device and Illusion. Just use razor blades instead of needles.

HI I did no that the metal had changd but I was just telling jordini that you can do it.and it is not one out of 500million.

Quoting Eric Starkey from the topic entitled 'Geek Magic?' in this forum:

"...while Swami/Mantra may be an entertaining read, it should by no means be considered as a resource for learning these stunts. It's information is INCOMPLETE and in many cases just plain WRONG. The ONLY way to learn these skills is from a professional."

And I wholeheartedly agree! Be careful!
