David Blaine made a mistake with this one
http://www.examiner.ie/breaking/2003...ory111777.html
Magician David Blaine pulled his latest shock stunt today when he appeared to cut off his own ear.
Not content with his reputation as the modern-day Houdini, the illusionist decided to cast himself as the new Van Gogh.
Blaine was giving a press conference at London?s Savoy Hotel to promote his forthcoming trick, in which he will spend 44 days without food while encased in a plastic box by the River Thames near Tower Bridge.
With the TV cameras rolling, the 30-year-old American opted for shock tactics in his latest bid to grab some publicity.
When a voice in the assembled press pack asked if there was a magic trick he could perform, Blaine came up with this ?impromptu? display.
After someone helpfully handed him a knife, he returned to the stage and started hacking away at his left ear.
He cried out and grimaced in pain as what appeared to be blood spurted down the side of his face.
Ushered off the stage by aides, a subdued Blaine was back five minutes later to show off the damage, with a slice of his ear apparently missing.
Blaine has made a career from appearing to test his body to the limits - although cynics suggest his stunts are more to do with trickery than human endurance.
maybe he chopped of his member too :eh:

I've got to give the guy credit...he's doing stuff, allbeit not magic, but its differentiating himself from the rest of the relatively unknown magic crowd. He's gaining an audience by doing the stunts.

He also said he's doing it for the "art of doing it."
