    Default Proof psychic's and mediums are just con artists

    Hey,

    Well i'm guessing most will think the titles an obvious point, aside from the good number of logical failings and repeated scientific studies in which psychic fail to yield any better results and pure guess work, theres still a good contingent who claim psychic's are real.

    Well, the bbc have this nice clip of 3 so called psychic's being put trough a simple test - they fail hard.

    Somewhat hilarious and you can really see how much of it is truly a con.

    I entirely agree that psychics are fake, but the stuff Derren Brown does never fails to amaze me.

    That doesn't mean psychics are all liars though. I lol'd at him reading the nameplate then denying it.

    True, but it is still clever trickery. Difference is he admits this, instead using it to take advantage of those who think its some sort of super natural power

    I think Psychics are fake, but they are really good at convincing people, they study people in different hands like they look to see if you have a wedding ring on then ask are you engaged? Seen a vid on BBC ages ago about it

    I emailed Psychic Sally once asking for lottery number but she didn't reply. Conveniently their psychic powers only work when they have an audience and can ask ambiguous questions like "is anyone here related to a dead person called Louise?!"

    I know you will probably all disagree but I do believe there are true psychics out there, a very small minority, but I do believe some of them are real.
    What Derren Brown does is just mind games really. I know he is very clever at what he does, but I wouldn't call him a psychic.
    It's just such a shame that people like that on the programme are ruining it for the genuine small percentage.
    That's just my opinion.
