Easily dude , easily , just look how defensive she seems to be getting when being asked normal questions , questions that she is going to be asked all the time for the rest of her "Career" whats even worse is this supposedly being a person to bring comfort to others , what a terrible attitude she seems to have too.
***** This prize can no longer be used as an excuse. The believer side has also had a similar prize for decades for any magician to replicate what some mediums do under the same conditions. No takers so far. The Randi one did have takers but were refused for many years.Not one was accepted until it ended.
***** No magician has to date yet replicated what physical mediums do. Give me one example please. Bear in mind that they have to be done under the SAME conditions. No access to the premises beforehand and a bodily search for props. Now go ahead and give me ONE example.
The Randi challenge was retired in 2015. It had one winner (which was an April fools gag by the foundation itself). & Leigh Catherine backed out of taking the test less than ten minutes after this aired with a predictably pathetic excuse.
she explained, she only had time for an interview OR a reading - not both - and if she did the reading, she might have to expose phil's cheating on his wife with his 15yo bf, which he would simply deny, anyway, satisfying the confirmation bias of idiot sceptics.
A friend of mine used to own a printing business. A psychic came to him to have some business cards printed. "When will they be ready?" the customer asked. My friend responded with 'You should be able to tell me when they'll be ready!'
Derren brown does this, he pulled my wife on stage and gave a very scaryily accurate reading whilst all the time saying "remember this isn't real and its all fake". He knew a lot of stuff.
Yeah, but... is it still fake when they're 100% right? It's weird, but it happens. Look how he freaked out the news lady. She wasn't focused on fake or not. She got swept up in the accuracy for her circumstances. You could tell she was getting a little woozy from the barrage of accurate facts.
The prize was a publicity stunt and does not exist. There is no account of any psychic taking the challenge as they were well aware that it was a stunt.
No one ever took it, the money was real. In his memory there is now an organization (James Randi Foundation) that funds skeptics to take on the "New Wave" of kooks.
Keep on living in denial. The prize was real. The money was real. Nobody stepped up to the challenge because they all knew they'd be found out as crooks when they failed.
Mate... Type in James Randi on youtube. He had a show where people took the challenges and no one won. "no account of any psychic taking the challenge as they were well aware that it was a stunt." Do your research before chattin a load of shit!
@@douglasnakamura6753 I wouldn't know. They gve me healing on my knee and they didn't ask for anything. That's as far as I went. How much do they charge when you join?
@@douglasnakamura6753 I know someone who does that because I believe there's something in the Bible that speaks of giving ten per cent of your income. That's nothing to do with mediumship. Mediums don't necessarily believe in God or have a religion but I think in the Spiritualist Church you can simply attend the meetings or services without having to pay a penny. You can also go along for healing and you won't be asked for money. Mediums who work as a business are bound by law. I don't know why people always expect them to give their services for free. In many cases they charge less than the plumber who tried to rip me off for ten minutes work.
She might actually believe that she is able to read minds of the dead. I would love this to be true. Can you imagine that you alone can tap into the'minds' of the deceased in their ethereal plane and ttanslate their mental musings to a living audience!! Not sure how having a photo of them helps.
I saw a video of a guy who was pretended to be a palm reader for some jollies at university and after a few years convinced himself he was an actual doing incredibly accurate readings based on people's reactions. About 10 years in he wanted to prove to himself how good he was by telling people the exact opposite of what the palms 'said'. To his surprise the people reacted in exactly the same way as they had done before. He then realised that it was all about the presentation.
"Are All Psychics Fake?" - Interesting question. Let me put a few other interesting questions out there: "Is magic real?" - "Do witches fly on broomsticks?" - "Can wizards cast fireballs?" - These are the questions we should be asking in the 21st century!
I think the problem with the question "Is Magick real?" we just don't have any idea what Magick is. There are those who will tell you they have ALL of the answers, when in reality they know NOTHING. We just dont know. There are strange experiences to be had, but generally these experiences RAISE more questions than answers. And as in the question itself, it is such a big question and vague in itself to begin with. "Can wizards cast fireballs?"- If i saw someone shoot fireballs out of their hand, i would want to see the gizmo that made it possible. Because there would have to be a scientific explanation for it. Again, we simply don't know enough to give a hard and fast explanation.
johntrevy1 "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me."
YouDontSeeMe If from a certain point of interpretation that you have taken, then yes they are all frauds. (And there are loads, but Again we DONT know what magick is).
When you challenge them to prove their “powers” they say they can’t switch it on and off at will, yet when they have a show arranged in advance with paying customers they can always switch it on then. They never get up on the stage and say “sorry, I don’t feel the power tonight”.
it's reflection. magicians are tricksters and simply project their trickery onto others, in their own mind. however, they neglect that genuine psychics - such as deb webber, kelvin cruickshank, john edward, matt fraser, etc - do not use tricks or cold readings, but are very specific with intimate details they have no other way of knowing. any viewer of sensing murder, or psychic detectives will see real results no magician could ever produce. magicians are fakes. most psychics are fakes. some are genuine. Leigh is calling for the industry to be cleaned up so people can have more confidence. has nobody commenting even listened to this clip?
I love Paul Zenon....Straight to the point and his views tell us all about 'cold reading'....Thank you Paul, for enlightening the public to cold reading and bringing the falsehoods of mediumship to the general public. And thank you again ❤
+Babycakes Carson I know exactly how she feels. I think most people can relate, if you've ever been accused of something. It's frustrating when you're being attacked and it's awkward. It's hard for me to watch someone being attacked like that because of how I grew up, it happened to me all the time.
stepfanie Carson Yeah, you're right there are a lot of psychics who intentionally scam people. However, that doesn't mean all of them do. I just think it's messed up to assume that she or anyone else is scamming people. In my opinion if your intention is to help people, and you truly believe you have psychic abilities then you aren't scamming people. Also people willingly pay, so it's their decision.
Looks like we found the guy that hears a super funny joke and tries to one-up the person who told it. Bravo Taylor. Bravo. I'm sure you're a hit at parties.
I’ve always had an idea to visit a psychic, get a reading, and then when it comes time to pay, I’d refuse, saying, “I came in here with no intention of paying you, so the fact that you couldn’t sense that means you’re a fake, and therefore you don’t deserve payment.”
I love how uncomfortable this charlatan is during the whole programme. Her Whole body language is screaming get me out of here!!! And she never took up the offer to prove herself.
k0smon If they are "psychic" then the testing should be no problem. If the results can fall within the realm of chance, then anyone would have a chance at taking the money.
Anthony Johnson Having attended two materialization seances and talking to them myself, I am sure I can communicate with the dead. I have read much psychic literature. I have been around psychics and mediums for much of my life. I do not have any faith in the bible.
Natalie bingo. This is what i was looking for. So she never took that guy's offer to send her to the states huh? 😅 i mean not like she had a chance obviously. Randi kicks ass!
"In an appearance on ITV's This Morning, on September 27, 2011, magician Paul Zenonchallenged Welsh psychic Leigh Catherine (aka Leigh-Catherine Salway) to take the one million dollar challenge and she accepted. Phillip Schofield, a This Morning host, stated that the program would pay for her flights to the US to be tested.[23] Salway subsequently backed out of the challenge, claiming it was "dodgy" and "set up to make it impossible to pass".[24]" from en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Million_Dollar_Paranormal_Challenge Yeah, it's impossible to pass because it's designed to see if you're legitimate lol
Hello. Yes there are definitely con artists and fakes. There may even be a certain amount of deluded people, however, I personally as a psychic never 'read' anyone's body language etc or asked questions or fished for answers. My job as I saw it was to be a person of integrity who delivers a specific message from those in spirit. My accuracy rate was high in terms of peoples' responses to what they were told. Now for the question, why do psychics charge money? Well, in my case, it was my job of work, my way to pay my bills and keep a roofe over my head. Ask a plumber, Joiner, or othger tradesperson or service person to come to you and work for free and you'll get your answer! One of the most satisfying aspects for me was bringing people closure or comfort through my readings. YES... among psychics and mediums there are those who prey on the vulnerable but....don't lump genuine people in with these fakes! As for these stage magicians who think everyone is conning someone else, they are so skeptical and determined to debag genuine psychics that they lose track of the genuine people.
Oh yes? Schizophrenia is a mental illness caused by a chemical imbalancein the brain which can be rectified by certain prescribed drugs. Psychic (from the Greek 'psyche') information about people you don't know and which is verified by the 'stranger' you give the message to is a long long way away from psychiatric illness in that it is coherent 'though un-sorted pieces of personal info to be either verified at the time or later on when the person reflects on what was given. Thank you for your rapid, if unfounded analysis of my spiritual gifts. :)
Hello evil B, unfortunately, as honest as I am and try to be, neither I, nor other 'true' psychics could convince mister Randi, because his tests are always 'skewed' in favour of no one winning the million dollars...a bit like the coconut shy's or other stalls at fairgrounds. As for the million dollars...money's a necessity to pay bills and keep a roof over your head, but as long as I can enjoy life, have my health and be happy, then that's all I really need. We (humans) are all psychic!!! S'true....even you! The thing is, some people (IMO) are born with the psychic abilites turned on and others, like myself had to develop these later in life. Finally, my job is NOT to convince anyone. You (general public) either believe or you don't...end of story. :)
Actually the burden of proof lies on you to prove the supernatural ability you claim to have, NOT on the 'cynics' or on the general public to prove otherwise. You're making genuinely astounding claims, Mr Java; that you can communicate with dead people! Astounding claims require astounding evidence to back them up. You offer none. If I were to claim that I could run 100 metres in 2 seconds, an astounding claim, people would quite rightly challenge me to prove it. The James Randi test is designed to wheedle out fraudsters and the deluded. Anyone with genuine magical powers (for that is what they would be) would pass the test easily. Plenty have tried, all have failed miserably. It's possible you BELIEVE you have magic powers. That perhaps shields you from being an out-and-out fraud, but certainly puts you into the deluded camp.
She's pissed because he is being very disrespectful. He can't hide his anger and his need to be right. Childish and rude. This is not a respectful discussion.
I would think it's important in an interview to have two sides represented without reproach from the other, i.e. respect, even if you disagree, let them have their say. I know nothing of these two people, but in theory that's how interviews should be conducted.
Then you're wrong. Dara O'Briain did a skit about homeopathy that explained exactly why that is idiotic. You don't need to give credence to moronic ideas that can't prove their truth by publicising them. Respect is earned. These people fleece money from the gullible & the vulnerable. There's nothing worthy of respect about that.
I love how she willingly admits that there are frauds (Not her of course) and informs us that we the public are not fools. How can she possibly be fake when she says things like that? A case of "Always be sincere, even if you have to fake it".
Someone allegedly had a reading by her (reading a comment here), apparently bragging about how gifted she was and nothing she said ever came true, she's a fake like all these con people are if that's true lol.
@@benedictearlson9044 100%. & that's a verifiable fact considering trading standards keep a public record of any complaints made. It's almost as if she doesn't know what trading standards is. Much like she doesn't know anything else.
I hadn't realised he was gone. I knew he was getting on in years but I missed the news of his passing. Having read your comment, I googled him and yes, he passed away two years ago aged 92. Sad news. You're right, he left us a great legacy. R.I.P. James.
@@teeteringonthebrink.305 I was devastated to discover that he had died. He was a hero of mine. We lost a great shield and spear in the phalanx against the credulous and spurious, if you’ll forgive a needlessly poetic way of putting it.

@@eyefishinggunkchannel1011 that’s a pity because it renders your comment virtually incomprehensible. You took the time to write so why not take a little more time so that you’re understood?
If the dead want to communicate why have victims like Jimmy Hoffa not come through to tell who did them in and where they are buried? It's always 'auntie Betty' to say they're no longer in pain and happy and watching over you.
I took a while to understand it and finally did and believe in you. In fact anyone can talk to the dead. The fake ones are the ones who claim the dead can talk back. 😬
if there were any real psychics in this world, you're unlikely to find them working as a con-artist or whatever, they would just do as you said, so you'll find them in a multi-million dollar mansion somewhere living the life out of that shit-ton of lottery money.
I have not read any comments below. I claim to be psychic. Here is my prediction. She did not win the money. She never even showed up for the challenge. How did I do?
+k0smon The test is most certainly real. Live examples are on RU-vid if you care to look and get an education. And to the best of my knowledge it is still on the table by the James Randi Foundation.
+1gallimaufry Most certainly not. It was never real. A lot of claims by the unamazing Randi, but it was just another one of his magic tricks. You are not up to date. The 'challenge' has been terminated. Randi has resigned.
+k0smon First off Randi retired, not resigned. Big difference. Second, the challenge as it was is no longer offered. To many crackpots wasting the foundations time. The million is however still up for grabs. Just tighter restrictions on applications. Go to his website for the explanation. I am really interested to know what makes you think the tests are not real but these psychics are. As I said before, RU-vid is full of videos showing the tests. Just because you do not like the results, you choose to dismiss them. By the way, Randi never had any direct involvement in the tests. He sent "negative vibrations" according to psychics who took the test. RIGHT!
+1gallimaufry See the article "The Myth of the Million Dollar Challenge" The big red flag is that you must sign away all your rights to sue. That way, Randi can do as he pleases as he has no obligation to anyone as they cannot sue him if he screws with them. The 'tests' were done over time and not subject to a YT segment. Randi's deal was a setup to entice people into thinking it was an honest test when the reality was that it was setup so no one could win.
Sally is laughable !! I heard her feed back from someone feeding her information 11 years ago in dublin !! I even went to the extent of mailing her office after the show ! It was a totally a joke I was so disappointed!! Ever since I can’t bear that women !!
You can talk, you can show, you can expose as many of these frauds you want to, but there will STILL be enough idiotsout there for her to make a living - as a "prostitute", yes, but still make a living !
No, mate, what you've got there is "psychotic", not psychic. You just need a comfy couch, a nice professional guy to listen, and maybe a neurochemical vitamin to level off your thinky bits.
Theyre con artists. At least any of them who have any kind of success are. They all use the same tricks. The ones who are crazy would be terrible at it without doing the gimmick
they do. the law doesn't recognise the industry because 95% are fakes, but real psychics do work with police to provide valuable clues. watch sensing murder or psychic detectives.
I see he deleted his comment. His proof that psychics solve crimes was that there was a reality TV show about it. Scotland Yard, the FBI, LAPD, and many other law enforcement agencies have expressed on many occasions that they are unaware of any crime ever being solved due to involvement from a psychic.
he's fake. relying on tricks. or perhaps he doesn't realise he is psychic. fakes are the worst - like actors pretending to be doctors. the best GENUINE psychics, include: john edward, deb webber, kelvin cruickshank and matt fraser. watch them for REAL psychic demonstrations: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NF7g0d4VSYQ.htmlm26s
" john edward, deb webber, kelvin cruickshank and matt fraser." All outed frauds who can't even approach the level of accuracy Derren Brown can while admitting he uses no psychic powers. You really do need to shut the fuck up Superdunce. Your hot reading links are horseshit.
I have proof, isn't that proof? Where's the proof? I have given it to clients, so there is proof. Where is it? A psychic who hasn't heard of cold reading is like a doctor who never heard about a placebo.
@@sprightlyrandom1550 there was a book written about it with the phrase "cold reading" in the title back in 1988, which is mentioned under sources of the wiki page. I don't know if it was written in that year or way earlier, since that particular source was already the 44th edition of the book or essay or whatever. I guess, if she is trying to delude people, she could do it acting like she doesn't know anything about cold reading ("hot reading or whatever" like she'd really be that stupid) or any other method. If everything comes just natural for her, why would she need to know anything about fake methods? So obviously, she could just pretend to not know.
If a court considers a foot print proof of murder than at least stop pretending that we have "no proof" of the afterlife. There is plenty of evidence. Even scientific. Even people that die and return with evidence is shut down. So tell me smart ass, what do you need to win this million dollar test? In order to prove something you must find it yourself, you cannot rely on others to prove things for you.
@@SLashafrass show me one person that has died and returned with evidence of the afterlife? In order to win the prize you need to demonstrate your supposed supernatural power in a controlled environment and it needs to be repeatable.
@@stuartsummers1303 There's literally a show. 3 seasons of about a hundred people with proof that while they were dead they knew what street the ambulance took and so on. Like I said you have to learn for yourself bits not my job to prove to you shit I already took the time to learn. Good luck with all that
@@SLashafrass I have researched claims of the afterlife before, I haven't came across that show. Where what they claimed tested and repeated? What is the name of the show?
I actually had a reading with her about 10 years ago. Spent half of it bragging now gifted she was. Can safely say none of her ‘ predictions’ came true 🤣
My ex claimed (still claims) that she is a psychic. I never saw an ounce of psychic ability, through she did try to convince me (not very well). She has social media pages, selling her ability. She is a total fraud. I think it’s disgusting.
k0smon the 'Medium' is impressed with his cold reading ability. And he is as much of a psychic as she is, more-so even as she wasn't even willing to prove her ability on the show and he just cold reads like a boss, says -hey this is a dumb parlor trick, psychics aren't real, and drops the mic.
+Richard Desjardin His cold reading sucks. He was not even cold reading anyone, He was just throwing a bunch of crap out there to see what would stick. She came on the program to discuss, not perform.
Derren Brown went to the US, where he was unknown at the time, and advertised as a medium. About a dozen people showed up and he told them all sorts of things about their dead relatives. Several were in tears and thanking him. He then told them that he was not a medium, and told them how he did it, ending with a warning to them to be careful of mediums. The guy is brilliant. btw, some mediums don't even know they are cold reading. There are some that are sincere but are reading cues without knowing.
I believe some really think that they can do what they do, but when you are "talking to dead people and can hear them" you are ether fraud or a schizophrenic.
"There are some that are sincere but are reading cues without knowing.". They're the ones who have been brainwashed into thinking they can talk to the dead.
He gave them all a personal reading. He handed each one while they were standing in a circle. He told them to read it and if he'd given anyone the wrong reading to pass it to the person next to them. They all said they had been given the correct reading. Every one was exactly the same.
Very interesting to watch a professional liar at work, the eyes are very dark and the body language is very masculine for a woman and the way she rolls her eyes in distain trying to give the impression he is lying is very manipulative to say the least.
@@drakocarrion And there are SO many people out there, willing to prey on the downtroden and unfortunate people in our society. They have no conscience.
They not all fake, most are bt some have bewildered skeptics, many psychics will not touch that reward money as it's forbidden in any way to make profit from your gift, you don't need to be an expert to know this. Anyone who does their research on the subject knows even a genuine psychic will not show off for a huge profit, the gift is to constitute to the human race, not abuse it
i defeated a psychic cold reading by answering everyone of his prompts, the one that made him give up was, the letter L? yes, my grandfathers next door neighbour was called Len! he just stopped acknowledging my raised hand for all his prompts then, even when i was the only hand up!!!
Wow his fake reading example was perfectly accurate for me with the exception of the recurring dream. Its amazing how easily we're fooled into thinking we're special, when most of those kind of statements literally can apply to almost everyone. Same idea with horoscopes.
It didn't touch on me at all. I'm an introvert don't have a friend who's recently screwed me over, never hurt my left leg no scar, never had an older man figure with the letter B it was all wrong
yeah these things don't work on everyone, but they're generalized enough to work for just enough people that they can falsely appear to actually be doing something more than just manipulating people
It all works best for cons when people start "interpreting" what the con is saying instead of letting them tell them EXACTLY what the details are and it be something they never knew, but can proven. My challenge still stands. I will pay $35,000, (my life savings at the moment) to any psychic who contacts me without 10 minutes of this post, by email or phone and answers the questions I have in my head that I want answered. If you are truly psychic, you should know my name, how to contact me (ask a ghost to find out for you if it is too difficult, since you can talk to the dead, too.) and give me the answers without me saying more than "Hello". Starting... NOW.
Here's one..this is true...a friend of mine was having a psychic to a yard party she was having and the psychic died before the event..it was sad but we couldn't help laughing about why she would take the job !
