Arguably the most relaxing con artist on RU-vid. 50% of people notice they fall asleep to this video, but within 24 hours 90% wake up to it still on their screen.
The extent to which those paper towels get kicked around and dropped. The fact that his patter is identical, regardless of who he’s “treating.” His dead pen. That he's got official paperwork and a clipboard, like he's gonna maintain a file on them, or something. That those back rubs actually look like they’d feel really good, even if they are completely meaningless. That his name is Saul, he’s a scammer, and this was taped in Albuquerque. Her purple old lady outfit, and black clogs. His ill fitting suit and bad haircut. The way his voice cracks when he says “and god’s working THROUGH me.” The fact that he has to swallow his saliva, loudly, every 10-15 seconds. That he very obviously can control the “leg length” measurement because he picks their feet up and holds them however he wants, and that nothing he’s calling ‘treatment’ could conceivably change someone’s leg length. That goofy little stool he keeps moving around. The sweeping hands motion like he’s just completed some hard work. The way he awkwardly assists Satnam off the table even though Satnam is clearly capable of doing it himself. The cheesy public access TV set.
I agree with your overall assessment. However, in fairness, I’ve seen doctors guide perfectly healthy and mobile people up and down from examination beds. I think it’s bedside manner.
The touching reassures the ‘patient’. The same way a second hand car dealer puts their hand on your shoulder, looks into your eye and tells you that this car is great and you will miss out if you don’t buy it today.
@@Dakbryant Fair enough. I think in isolation you’d be right... but in the context with the rest of it, that little moment of professionalism is really jarring.
I love when he’s rubbing there backs he’s explaining the placebo effect. “Allowing to take to the healing” translates to fooling your brain that I’m doing something helpful.
And tells her that any sensation that would naturally come from the simple act of being touched are all sensations she’s getting because the healing is working. Warmth, tingling, I sense of peace, love. Anyone could feel all of that when someone is soothingly touching your back and speaking in a soothing voice. It’s like a corporate drug commercials when they list a bunch of elements you may have that they claim their drug can help with. And these elements are always so generic and Vague physical issues are things all of us feel all of the time.
He's also subtly pointing out that if your problem isn't fixed through his methods, it's your fault. If your cancer isn't cured it's because you didn't "take to the healing" enough.
It‘s part of what makes the scam work. Getting the victims in a relaxed mood weakens their defense to the deception allowing the scammer to make full use of the placebo effect.
Yeah Lenny Jay, I've wondered about that too with this guy. The placebo effect is shown to work sometimes as well as (and even better than) medication. You can just replace "god" with "hypnotic suggestion." And if it works, it's not a scam. The question I have is-does he know or does he think it's actually god?
@@ASMRplaylist I‘d say it‘s a double edged sword, though with placebo. It can be really helpful in treating symptoms but is hardly any help with underlying issues. It can be a slippery slope to the darker corners of alternative medicine, too, see anti-vaxxers, covid-deniers, etc. The ritual and metaphysical aspect can be dangerous tools, so I‘d always be cautious when I see somebody using them.
@@ASMRplaylist God usely works though people in different ways my storys strage to how I belive in God. But yes I belive he believes God is working through him.
@@ASMRplaylist As an Atheist I find it hilarious and deeply saddening at the same time, I think he’s knows it’s a load of crap but the people he “heals” actually think it’s true and sometimes that’s all that matter but I would imagine half his clients are NOT REPEAT CUSTOMERS, plus you can tell he knows it because of his “whatever the person ALLOWS...” which is his get out of jail free card, because then WHEN it doesn’t work he can say “well you didn’t allow yourself to heal”
@@michaelperez9966Nah, he's followed the same script and done the same things for the last 10 years. A hallmark of decent con artists. This guy knows he's conning people. The bad looks and the voice are distractions. Watch what he's actually doing. Far as scams go, it's a good one.
When you’re touch-starved, laying of hands can be very healing. My chronic pain isn’t as bad after a good hug from a good friend. The con here is the idea that he’s special for being able to channel healing.
Ah, yes. So that's what's going on with his voice. I just thought he had a cold, or like the whole town of Santa Fe has the same cold cuz they're all sniffling and coughing the whole time. Maybe he just reeks of cigarettes lol.
20% of 50% of the people sense something’s not right right away, while 100% of 50% of people usually feel it the next day... and if you don’t allow yourself to feel anything at all it’s your fault not mine
No. It’s your own fault for not allowing your legs to correct themselves. Or it’s not the best for all, or The Holy Spirit doesn’t feel the need for them to be the same length. Or you didn’t drink enough water.
50% of the people won't notice I'm holding their wallet. After the healing, 90% will notice their wallet feels lighter and won't remember what happened.
The “Sex Panther” of healing. “50% of the time, it works 90% of the time!... ....(but only when the individuals “allow themselves” to receive the healing).
He knows he has to write something on the clipboard , in order to make the marc...patient, feel he is legitimate, so he writes his grocery list, one item at a time.
“Whatever the individual is allowing themselves to recieve with the healing” Translation: If it fails it’s on you not me you didn’t believe enough: This is spiritual gaslighting 101. Run.
Originally snake oil had real medicinal properties. The Chinese that came over used it for aches and pains. But scammers sold fake snake oil and ruined it for those legitimately trying to help people.
The part at the start where he says his patients usually feel a tingling or relaxing sensation in their body is probably just the person having an asmr feeling but they mistake for gods energy.
After the 1st 25% of time has passed, 15% will feel what about 8% do too BUUUUT AT LEAST 3% will experience a sensation that some has a hand on their butt.
imagine that the sensation of ASMR may have been felt by people back in the day, falling for this quakery and attributing good feelings to god or the healer...wild
The QRR, or Quackery to Relaxation Ratio, is the axiom first theorised by B. H8er (2021) and later developed by J. Capps (2021) which describes the relationship between the level of quackery in any given ASMR video (q) and the mean relaxation effects on the ASMR RU-vid community of said video (r). Findings by both H8er and Capps showed a clear positive correlation between q and r in over 200 randomly selected sample ASMR videos based on video ratings, textual analysis of comments left by viewers and the tags and content themes of each video. These findings are consistent with the researchers’ hypotheses regarding a markedly positive QRR in ASMR RU-vid videos.
