I met David Blaine once on a plane. I'm the only magician in my family and I recognized him. He was in first class practicing magic with his playing cards, and I said hi to him and he said he'd meet me later. After takeoff he walked to the last row in the plane, which we were in, and performed a magic trick for us and took a photo. He was really nice and not awkward like in this video.

[@chinmay9702]

He's not awkward in his videos What's wrong with u

[@oseverything5413]

hola in this video from Chris Ramsay specifically, Chris says that David is awkward. I didn’t say that David was in all of his videos

[@moneyatslander]

Hey, that doesn't fit Chris' fanboy video here. Please buy Chris' shit cards.

[@joshuasmith6346]

That would mean blaine carries a frog in his pocket wherever he goes

[@ryaneng2212]

I also met David Blaine once in the Miami airport. He was performing magic for a kid and a security guard, and I looked over, and said to my friend, "doesn't that look like an overweight David Blaine to you?" After he was finished with his trick, I went over, and said i'm a fan, and would love a picture. He took a picture with me, and then I asked him if I could buy him a drink when our flight landed. He texted me his number and said he'd love to get drinks with us. He ended up on the plane pretty close to my friend, who told me he just slept for the whole flight. I texted him for drinks after we landed, and he never responded. I think it was a fake phone number that he uses for fans, even though his initial text to me worked.

[@charlieblackett]

I hope David Blaine makes a video called "My encounter with Chris Ramsay" explaining that it was actually Chris who was awkward.

@@sidh196 My comment was on the percieved behavior. Ive seen that behavior pattern in multiple people. Social anxiety, not enchanters. Yet instead of shying away, they act randomly, they do things to *shock* people. An they put up a facade of flaunting themselves. I dont know this magician. However ive known more than 1 person with this pattern of behavior. Its a more uncommon form of social anxiety. Its like someone who is trying to break out of the anxiety, but is stuck in it regardless. The imbalance blacks them from being social enchanters. Yet theyre not exactly sinking into themselves either. Hard to explain. Easy to observe. My ass would have let him run off. He would have been alone at whatever place by himself waiting for an uber. lmao.

@Paul Martinez- I think so too, he was probably trying to disturb a fellow magician's mind for whatever reason, no harm to that. My son and I hada great encounter with David Blaine. David Blaine, one of the most humble and approachable celebrities I ever met, we said hello to him. me and my young son, in a theater in New York City as we went to see SpongeBob. My son recognized him. David took the time to stop and crouched down to my young son's height, so that he could be as tall as my young son. Then David started to have a one on one conversation with my son, shaking his hand, asking him questions about his name, how old he was, what he liked, etc...and asking him if he was going to see Sponged -Bob as well, my son responded yes, so David gave him his SpongeBob's movie tickets, telling my son to enjoy the movie etc...So David just gave us his movie tickets when he could have just said "hello". I know David performs amazing magic tricks but that was quite an amazing humility trick. A real cool classy guy. His success is so well deserved for many years of hard work perfecting his craft. Thanks David, cause for my son and I, you added an extra special note to our movie going afternoon that day.

[@manniefaces]

Sounds like he could be on the spectrum.

[@grayskindablue]

manniefaces The more interviews or stories like this I see of him the more I think he’s on the spectrum. I have Asperger’s (I know, not technically a diagnosis anymore, and no, it doesn’t qualify me to figure out who else is before people jump at me.) But with the way he misses social cues and sarcasm, it makes sense to me. He does a lot of smiling/laughing after the interviewer or another person does which is pretty typical, copying reactions becomes almost instinctive if you can’t pick up the emotions or tone of something. Also “special interests” are really common with Asperger’s/autism. I have a few but they tend to cycle. They’re different than just a hobby, or even a passion since they can easily border obsessive (and OCD is a common co-morbid of autism, like anxiety and ADHD.) So if magic is a really meaningful thing to him, and he wants to always know every single detail about exactly how every aspect of it works, and surround himself with it completely, to a sometimes obsessive point, it doesn’t surprise me at all he’s incredible at what he does. I’d actually be way more surprised by somebody who was neurotypical, but had that level of passion and focus on just one thing, and also just happened to be socially awkward.

[@Seethi_C]

It's obviously a character he plays. He did it in his old specials, and even some old interviews (look at the GMTV interview from 2001).

I have an amazing David Blaine story!!!! A couple weeks ago on June 7, 2017 I went and saw one of David Blaine's shows on his tour in Spokane, Washington. My family and I made it in Spokane, but we had missed a turn so we had to take a detour. We stopped at a four way stop, and out of the corner of my eye I saw David Blaine get into a Jaguar. My mom who was driving tailed the Jaguar until it pulled over. We saw David Blaine get out of the Jaguar so I get out and I said "Hey" David peers over his shoulder to look at me and he says "hello." Then I said shyly "I am big fan of your work," and David says "thank you" and I give him a light fist bump. I asked if he would like to sign one of my cards, he says that he would be right back to put his stuff away in his tour bus. David Blaine comes back and he took the ace of spades from my deck and he signs To Spencer Elvis and his signature. He asked if I had a camera on my phone if I wanted to pose for pictures, but I had forgotten my phone, and David Blaine replies in his soothing voice "Well Shit" as if he was surprised that I am one of the few teenagers who isn't attached to their phone, but my mom was taking pictures of the event in the distance. And I said "thank you" and I saw David Blaine walking back to his tour bus. That is the story of how I met David Blaine.

Cute story man. David sounds like a great guy

[@cassie1421]

“Do we chase David Blaine?” The most pressing question I’ve ever heard.

[@sharonlee413]

I’m dying! You’re a master story teller!

[@philnaumann]

Dude! Chris Ramsay, Daniel Madison and David Blaine in the same room! World colliding! All of your guys are awesome! Such a cool story for a big fan of each of you! Thank you for this.

[@mahmodulhassan8867]

ROFLMAO! You acting the parts out made it hilarious! 😂😂

[@gvina7789]

I know what’s LMAO but what the fuck is ROFLMAO??

[@mahmodulhassan8867]

Tomas Belinski rolling on the floor laughing my ass off :)

[@jasonsilbermanmagic]

This felt like a very trippy dream

[@Hellsiepwn]

Sounds like he just wanted you to leave, but didn't want to ask you to. So he literally just dumped you at a random restaurant and got an uber back to his condo.

[@jlindien8972]

Thanks for making me spit my soup on the screen. I love that editing. You've got a new sub.

[@creanjinsung]

And I thought David Blaine's persona on his performances and specials was just for show.

[@therealjigsawjp]

This is funny af. I still can't stop laughing.

[@temuujinkhezu455]

Wanna be

[@TheElrondo]

Sometimes it's time to revisit this vid... One of the best stories. TY again Chris.

[@captainvoluntaryistthestat3207]

David met Chris again and was like "oh you again...aight ama head out." 🎈🎈ascension🎈🎈

[@jayden8636]

I'd love if somehow David Blaine commented on this video

[@AryanSharma-gm4cv]

I just watched this video for the 7th time and it still makes me laugh. You're great dude!!

[@irvingbrown2389]

Dude love the story, and as you were telling it I was imagining being in your shoes. And you definitely nailed the David Blaine vibe I would imagine for sure. I wonder if he’s seen or heard of you or your videos since. If a buzz got around about a magician, yourself telling such a story about himself I think would be irresistible for him to not want to watch what someone was saying about him. Especially now with everyone being involved in KZbin. Chris I love your videos, your incredibly talented and smart. The puzzles are insane and your magic and eye for it is on point. Thanks for sharing and all the hard work and time you put into your channel. Look forward to seeing more

[@ericburnett8163]

Just came back to this after watching David Blaine's new special. This is still one of my favorite stories and videos on your channel

[@therealjigsawjp]

What was daniel madison doing while y'all were watching the same scene? I need to know! 😂🤣😂👐

[@dustingrimmmagic1067]

Jordan Purol probably thinking "i am daniel madison and this Video would be cooler in Black and White.."

[@therealjigsawjp]

DustinGrimm Magic 😂😘😂lmao

[@PavlosGavras]

Jordan Purol he was like...im daniel madison who the fuck are u?

[@graff5274]

And then he randomly just fell straight down on the floor...

[@julio-pr8oh]

I am Daniel Madison and what the fuck happened

[@OO-yl4se]

Hahahaha! Awesome story dude. The chasing part was too good. And you nailed the Dave character. Hahahaha. Awesome vid. I like the fact it was an awkward story.

[@paulrobinson5492]

I heard about you in the book Magic Is Dead--neat book. I have to say you are a master storyteller. Great story, made me laugh--you have that magical quality of charisma. I'll keep watching.

[@joefuller3467]

The lack of EPICness .....makes it EPIC! thanks for sharing it

[@bcon117]

In my experience, people like Blaine, (showman / socially awkward since birth), behave like this as a form of control, not just of his audience but also himself. You'll know what I mean if you watch his talk show appearances, because of the contrast between him, the host and the crowd. He speaks and moves in a way which makes you wait with bated breath for the most insignificant thing, like a simple conversation in an elevator. This sets the tone he needs to perform, or speak, but also allows him to slowly and carefully execute his move without trying to keep up with everyone else's erratic nature. More simply, if you act like slow and serious, people pause for you.

[@henrijs1733]

smart, both your observation and his technique

[@jamesmahany5670]

Hey man. I'm from new york but I'm visiting Iceland right now. I knew that I couldn't miss your video. So I drove to a place where I could find some free wifi (which is hard to find in iceland) and I'm watching your video outside the coffee shop haha. Sounds like a pretty crazy experience.

[@jamesmahany5670]

Woo! He saw it. Ok I'm going to go fanboy at a glacier now. Btw. I showed flirt to a German girl at the airport Chris. You were right it gets the girls....maybe...kinda.

[@irishred8850]

I feel like Chris is telling ME this story, very personal 🙂

[@donrev5512]

Awesome Video Editing Skills. This Channel Rocks!!!!

[@wijny4222]

dude this is one of the most weirdest stories i've ever heard ^^ maybe all these stunts he performed did have an effect on him :D greetings from switzerland :)

[@SLMediaie]

This is one of my favs vids on youtube

[@tommymartin2871]

Flnry oh for sure 😂😂

[@bltn7469]

Dude , with just very little work this could be one of the best stand up routines out there . I'm in tears XD

[@Ianslabratory]

That was actually a really good story. I think I could see what he was doing with his interaction with you. At his fame level he doesn’t want to be another normal person but he wants so be so different that you couldn’t forget it. Looks like he succeeded

[@MotionTyst]

Would be hilarious if in the end he would be like "psyche! Im just messing with you for these 3 hours. [Trololol] How's it going!? :)" xD

[@ethanmooney4476]

Well this is awkward..,

[@NAKDTV]

Chris love the content. An the celebrity encounter was absolutely one to wonder upon.

[@Wawinator]

HAHA dude you have got an awesome personality! Tons of energy and very passionate. Keep them videos coming

[@lorenzotedone3317]

Maybe his brain is freezed from when they freezed him into the ice

[@fugginchit1]

LOLz this shit reminds me of Charlie Murphy's encounter with Prince. Game... Blouses..

[@fudy1894]

Allan Cooney wanna come over to my house and listen to some music!?

[@solenya89]

Lmfao you filmed this video so good. Funny af 😂

[@tvd-theremedy2515]

This story is more epic and amazing than it could’ve possibly been had it played out ANY OTHER WAY lol. I obviously don’t know David Blaine, but your imitations of him just look like they’d be PERFECT haha. I can definitely picture that weirdo when you do his parts lol. Good stuff, as always. I’m glad I came across this channel. This is ALWAYS some good sh!t.

[@pandapigeonpowpow3838]

U killed that impression of DB, lol

[@nictolman3366]

Seriously your one of the coolest dudes ever

[@MindsetMastery75]

This is still my favorite Chris Ramsay video ever! Lol. This had me crying laughing the first time i saw it, had to watch this again. Lmao!!!

[@daryljohnson6333]

More hidden talents! You’re a Great storyteller and actor, Chris!

[@brosyphiousfitness3104]

Shows how committed he is to not only magic but making good footage also

[@MrEmagicman]

I was doing pretty good the whole video, but I lost it when you had to chase him! My week won't get better than this

[@melissaspicer4538]

Just stumbled across this video and it was greatness! Your telling of it was too funny!
