Pyrokinesis - Qigong Master Boils Water With His Hands

Something we learned a long time ago... Outstanding claims deserve outstanding proof. They do NOT deserve belief and adulation.

After Madoff, thought this would be rather clear on this forum "Wow, almost 30 years of outstanding returns. How does he do it?" Well, we learned. Smoke and mirrors.

You can rest assured this amazing person needs to prove his acts, not let the viewer be in shock and awe.

People doing things like Reiki, remote viewers, poeple who9 can sense "a particular disease with their hands" and other energy tricks have generally been debunked every time they put under serious, double-blind testing. Ripley's is not a debunking agency, but one that tries to amaze the viewer.

Fire walkers, Fire eaters and others amaze people, until you realize they are basically more a simple pyschological feat then technical.

I'll keep that in mind next time I watch the video you posted. :p

Well, your fire guy would have no trouble collecting Randi's million dollars. Funny how there are endless claims made by countless charlatans and yet there has not been a single instance of unusual phenomena under controlled and properly observed conditions, in all the years that the challenge has been available. No doubt, it's a karma thing. :p

Right, they faked it all, even the heat sensing camera. You explained it away perfectly. Thanks for your incisive analysis.

No, no. Thank you for yours:

Every person has this potential power so I don't agree that this person in the video is special really. He has just trained himself to use energy in ways that most in the world, especially the West, don't yet understand.
 
here's another

Thunderdog, you are such a cynic! Even in our concretist world there are multitudes of scientifically-inexplicable phenomena. For instance, every time I log onto ET, I am astonished anew that my ears pop from the intellectual vacuum.

Uh-huh, sure. Just like psychics and fortune tellers, no doubt. Remember when Uri Geller was a media darling, able to bend spoons by mere will alone? :p

Perhaps this fire guy should undertake Randi's million dollar challenge:

Hey, and what about Chris Angel and all the cool stuff that he does?

At least he admits that he's an entertainer. But if he didn't, I bet he would have a following of "spiritual" devotees ready to commit their lives to "harnessing the power."


im a skeptic and a fan of randi--HOWEVER, his criteria for the million dollars is excessive and practically impossible to obtain regardless of ability. as i said, i am a natural skeptic, but i am not closed minded to possibility--as you are.

regards, surf
