As opposed to it not being rigged and him really holding his breath for 7 days.

He's not planning to hold his breath for 7 days.
Rather for 8 minutes and 48+ seconds.

He's a magician. Of course it's a trick! That doesn't make it any less entertaining.

My obvious answer would be that he has a small oxygen tank in his mouth.

Why does this seem like he's running out of ideas?

I just never been interested in David Blaine, he just doesn't appeal to me, though it legions less annoying then Penn and Teller, their last special on tv was horribly boring.
I saw him in the bubble thing on Regis and Kelly, meh.

No, he's staying submerged in a bubble for 7 days, at the end of which he plans to break the breath holding record of 8 minutes and 58 seconds while escaping from chains. Frankly, I think he's full of shit, but he seems to entertain well. I remember my sister showed me how to do the leveitation trick quite a few years ago, but I don't remember how. The only thing I can recall is that you need baggy pants.

Insomniac got it right.
I know how the levitation trick is done. It involves them standing on a box with one foot and letting the trousers dangle or something.
It was on one of those magic shows.
As for David Blaine. He has to be one of the most annoying people ever.
