He also made the ball move when Gary McAllister was taking that penalty against England.

Don't forget the time he used his powers to help Exeter City in a crucial relegation game, which they narrowly lost 5-1. |

Fuk the spoon bending he made all his wedge from telling people where oil reserves were? not sure alot of others can do it.. What? he has been paid roughly around $100m over the years by oil companies to pin point oil reserves in the ground. I dont care if its true or not that he can find the oil the fact is he is paid to do so  |

Always thought is was a crock of shite
When I saw Penn & Teller they do a section about mediums/psychics. You can tell that they hate them with a passion, and refer to them as money motivated leeches who suck on the vulnerable etc
They go on to do some tricks that are much the same as a psychic would do and they assure you that these are the exact same methods used by the tricksters, and at no point do they need to talk to the dead or read your mind.
Pretty sure they have done a TV show about it too.
Just made me think, there are two guys in the right circle of people to know about that stuff.

I dont care if its true or not that he can find the oil the fact is he is paid to do so He's been paid $100m. Really? Is that the same as when he claimed to have done work for NASA as well? |

They did, it was in the big list of Youtube vids I posted itt Derren Brown is also doing the same thing in the UK. I actually find it so much more mysterious and entertaining when Derren does it, but says clearly that its a trick, than when someone claims to have special powers. |

I dont care if its true or not that he can find the oil the fact is he is paid to do so A friend of mine does this aswell (in a nutshell), he gets paid squillions for it as well. He's not a medium or psychic, he's just really really good at his Job. |

Read up on it, the financial times amongst others have reported his work and pay for mining, oil companies. He used to charge 1m advance fee's + share of the profits etc.. One of the heads of a big company suggested he use dowsing to find reserves and he went from there. What is fact is that he made and continues to be paid alot by companies to find resources, or inform them on spots not to drill. I don't care if he can find stuff or not, hes made a bucket load of cash from people hiring him to do so. i |

how do we know that derren brown isn't a medium? if I had the power I think I'd take the route he has of pretending that I didn't. much more money to be made doing the exact same thing and people don't accuse you of and hate you for preying on the vulnerable |

He did 'work' for one company, who ridiculously paid up front (far less than $1m though). Geller found sand - nothing else. |

Or Geller might be making it up? He also claimed to be able to change base metals into gold. Interestingly, he hasn't made a going concern from this alchemy. |
