    Don't mean to step on anyone's toes, but why is it sometimes people have to have that "but what about the... starving children, rainforests, homeless" attitude?

    I read letters to the editor in Newsweek and local papers with stuff like that all the time. If a guy wants to be suspended in a box for 44 days, a year, 10 days, can't he just do it simply because he wants to?
    Or, it's someone speaking out because they weren't represented.

    People can just "do things" and they don't have to represent a cause in any way. Like/Dislike David Blaine because you feel what he's doing is interesting/stupid, respectively, but it's silly to dislike it because he's not raising money for a cause.
