Alt title: David Blaine is a madman

In the limited series Do Not Attempt, David Blaine travels the world in search of magicians and maniacs.

In the final episode, he travels to Japan. He finds a man who can cut a wooden baseball bat in half with his bare hands.

Blaine asks him what the secret is to destroying anything with your fists, and he says that if you try to punch a target, you won’t get very far. Instead, you have to envision a spot past the target so that you can punch through it with the proper speed.

When we have a goal, we need to aim far beyond it if we want to reach it.
