He should take the Randi challenge and earn himself a million dollars.


In the small chance this guy is for real they'd argue there is a chance he's being fed by vacuum energy and tiny wormholes. Nothing supernatural, no money


There haven't been any close cases in the history of the challenge. The vast majority have backed out before it comes to a test, and none of the tests have come close to a positive read. Even just beating the challenge condition would be worth a million to any real psychic because of the associated publicity, so the lack of winning isn't due to a belief that they wouldn't pay out.

Believe me, no one would part on money (and pride) so easily.  One of the clauses state he isn't obliged to pay anything even if the conditions are met, and there's always room for arguing something. Hell I could start today a one-million dollar challenge to be proved men landed on the moon, or that relativity exists beyond a doubt, and always crawl my way out of any evidence. The thing is, my little challenge will never prove anything. What right do I have to disconsider every outsider research as the fruit of deluded people working for an agenda? Or call them morons who don't get they are a bunch of liars because they can't come in front of me and prove what they are saying?

I'm not here to say psychic powers exist or not. Or that guy really didn't eat anything for 70 years. But hell, I'm open to the possibility that might be something out there our measly 150 years of physics and biology still can't accurately explain. The thing is, would it really matter? Would it change something on your daily life? How? Where? Why?
