David Blaine Burns $100 Bill and James Drinks The Ashes

James welcomes world-famous magician David Blaine to blow our minds once again with an incredible stunt that can only be explained as magic. After "borrowing" a $100 bill from James's own pocket, David uses various methods to destroy it. James is convinced to drink the remains before a wild surprise guest arrives. His first-ever residency, "David Blaine: In Spades," kicks off at Resort World Theatre in Las Vegas on September 30th.

Warning spoilers! Don't read!!!

I never thought my comment would be on top and many likes so I'll have to write this one first.

That raven was really a scene stealer. I never saw that coming. And how promptly he drop it off in the glass and flew away like it's normal business. Very professional bird. I'd hire him.

James: Tell me what about your show
David: give me money

Been on a David Blaine binge for last few days. So excited to see him back in action 🔥🤩

[mutatednut]

God I love David. Never breaks character and just does his own thing.

The fact that James is probably the only host I’ve seen not hesitate or ruin a good moment makes me respect him a lot unlike others who are scared to either hold a small animal or have to beg to do something 😅

David will always be a great magician. But mad respect to James for drinking the ashes 🤣 I think David didn't expect him to drink it haha

[kylemaynard]

david was the reason I became sober for 2 years. he said to live is to do the thing your most terrified of...to me at the time was letting alcohol go...that's when I started living.

Even watching David Blaine as a child for many years, his sleight-of-hand and misdirection is still unbelievably impressive to me. Definitely a master of his craft.

[jaywhitaker]

David was born
Doctor: I’m not feeling a pulse
David: Check your coat pocket

[fmca]

David Blaine takes his magic to a whole new level everytime he makes an appearance

[richardpaquette]

The fact that a raven flew to the glass and placed a $100 bill in it is the greater trick.

REVEAL:💥 it is a different note (the first one had a sharp fold in it 2:04 from his wallet, the second was perfectly flat 6:43), David carefully tore it in a way practised many times (on cheap $1 notes) so piece would align with the new one. Had James (or a toddler) tore it and it still matched, THEN I'd be impressed

[megane-sama]

The real magic trick was tricking me into watching 8mins of James corden

[welfiblablabla]

My first question would be "So wtf did I just drink?" 😅

[alohablue]

Magic, suspense & comedy..David is the coolest!

[decafmocha]

I have never seen anyone like David Blaine. Truly unbelievable.

[TheDepressedMemeCat]

He just left him with a torn $100 bill😂

[Adomz]

If you put it at .5 speed, you can see that you still have absolutely no idea what just happened

[joshthompiano]

This was the most excited I've ever seen David Blaine.
