| It's really interesting how the simplest tricks can fool a wide variety of people. I always feel that most people are prepared to take things at face value, as opposed to a more skeptical approach. Ironically, if you had a mate who said something like, "Micheal Jackson was over having tea in my house yesterday". You say "stop taking the mick." However, which is more likely? Bending spoons (with sheer mind power) or having a celeb in you house.  Double standards! I guess people want, or need to believe in this stuff. Heres anther guy that fooled quite a number of people for awhile, until Randi got hold of him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlfMsZwr8rc&feature=related | |
