David Blaine takes a swig of water during his stunt
Police say that they are "monitoring" the crowd at David Blaine's starvation stunt.

The magician has been hanging in a plastic box in central London for nearly a week in his attempt to go without food for 44 days.

David Blaine - what's he up to?
But some people who have come to see the 30-year-old New Yorker have thrown things like bananas and eggs at the box.

Worried that this would put David off, his security team asked the police to help.

They've been watching people in the area very closely, but haven't actually arrested anyone.
