Well, not the real David Blaine, but these two videos (warning: strong language) via our pals at AOL feature actor Mitch Silpa doing a pretty accurate Blaine impression (right down to the lackadaisical delivery) and scaring the crap out of two young men, who, by the end, just want Blaine to leave them the hell alone. Make sure you watch the second clip first (the YouTube one) and then the one on top.
Also, for another spoof of a popular street magician, you should check out Human Giant's "The Illusionators," over on MTV's site. Paul Scheer and Aziz Ansari do a near-perfect parody of Criss Angel's Mindfreak series, right down to the sexy hair and rock and roll aesthetic.
I wonder when someone is going to do a Penn and Teller spoof? I'd like to see that.

Wow. Thanks for letting us in on that - that was, literally, one of the funniest "effing" things I have EVER seen. Seriously, there were tears. That guy doing Blaine just nailed it, and those two poor dudes were so freaked out, I honestly think it gave me a hernia I was laughing so hard. Just awesome.

The first one was pretty funny, and I thought they couldn't top it but they did! Hilarious!

I'm glad this is getting some exposure. I have been forwarding it to my funny-worthy friends since I can across it a couple of weeks ago.
Every time he looks into the camera after I trick, I nearly lose it!! There's orange soda in my mouth!!
