David Blaine: Ascension is not a movie, but a live event that took place on August 31, 2020. In this death-defying stunt, Blaine floated over the desert in Arizona held up by dozens of helium-filled balloons.
The event was streamed live on YouTube, with millions of viewers tuning in to watch Blaine rise up to almost 25,000 feet and then skydive back down to the ground. The entire stunt took about an hour and a half.
Blaine had been preparing for this event for months, undergoing intense physical training and working with a team of experts to ensure his safety. He also partnered with YouTube to raise money for COVID-19 relief charities.
The event was a massive success, with many viewers praising Blaine for providing a much-needed distraction during a difficult time. Blaine himself called it "the most ambitious and difficult project of my life."
