David Blaine at The ABC Upfront Presentation 2006 at the Lincoln Centre. New York City, USA - 16.05.06

The 33-year-old daredevil, who failed to break the world record for holding his breath underwater last month (MAY06), will hang off the New York City landmark, 41 metres (135 feet) above the East River.

Blaine is planning for the stunt on the bridge suspension wires.

He says, "Challenging myself on this bridge is a life-long dream."
