SMS David Blaine in his glass box

Freever and the Metro newspaper have been collecting thousands of text messages for illusionnist David Blaine as he indures starvation in solitary confinment suspended from a crane by the River Thames, in a glass box for 44 days.

"The messages were projected to Blaine on a large screen at Tower Bridge at 5pm on Wednesday evening, and although he cannot respond directly himself, he seems to be enjoying the attention.

Messages can be sent to short code 2428. Messages should start with Blaine then your message and ending with your name".

According to 160characters.org, messages have verged from outlandish to the extreme including messages declaring undying love and the odd marriage proposal.
