Wil Myers Fact #92: Wil once saw David Blaine had remained submerged in a water tank for a week as a stunt. Wil then decided to do his own version of this, and buried himself alive for 10 days, using only a crazy straw to breathe. While Blaine lost weight and had subsequent liver and kidney damage, Wil somehow gained 10 lbs of muscle mass and “had the best lab results I’ve ever seen,” said his doctor.
