James Randi - The World Famous DEBUNKER

2009-05-07T15:16:00.008+08:00

James Randi is a famous DEBUNKER.
He has offered 1 million USD for anyone who can prove that they are a psychic or has special extraordinary powers through his James Randi Educational Foundation. In the early 1990s, he also hosted a show to invite self proclaimed psychics to participate in his challenge. Please watch this video to see how he debunks and rationalize so call 'psychics'. This challenge is still on till today =) So if you know of anyone who claims to be a psychic or a medium, do encourage them to join so that they can get 1 Million USD? =)

For anyone who is interested, there are more in Youtube.
FYI, he is not a believer nor a non-believer in paranormal powers, he simply carries out tests to 'test' the psychics.

NOBODY has successfully claimed the 1 million USD from James Randi Educational Foundation TILL DATE. He has proven that Mediums / Psychics 'guessings' are all about probabilities thus far.

Statistics.
a.
the relative possibility that an event will occur, as expressed by the ratio of the number of actual occurrences to the total number of possible occurrences.
b.
the relative frequency with which an event occurs or is likely to occur.

HOW DO PROBABILITIES WORK?
A very simple way:
Judging from a person's Gender, Age, Dressing, you are able to make certain guesses about a person. And when 10 guesses are made, there are bound to have 1-2 correct guesses.

Eg.:
If I make 10 guesses on what you had for breakfast today, I am sure I am bound to have 1 correct guess OR a correct linkage to what you had.

You had porridge or chee cheong fun or chwee kuay or eggs or sausages or nasi lemak or bread wtc.... so perhaps that day you had HARD BOILED EGGS with say HAM etc. So I am right yah? I made a guess with eggs but did I specify what kind of eggs and also did I mention HAM on my first and ONLY guess? Nope. But you'd think I guessed right because people often only remember the 1 right guess out of 10 guesses or even 20.

Another would be linkage.
'You had something... ROUND.. (MANY food are round) and hot (alot of food are served hot) for breakfast.... then TADAH you'd say how you know! I had hard boiled eggs for breakfast today. See, here you provided the answer yourself! If I did not get any response from you with ROUND and HOT. I'll proceed to say something long.... squarish.. then TADAH spot on again. =) You'll probably say you had OTAH. Right?

Probabilities people.

ethan, glenn:
As promise by ah lin jie jie (me), here's the lyrics of the song.

--------Jason Mraz
I'm Yours lyrics

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out, I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love

Listen to the music of the moment people, dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate, our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

D-d-do do you, but do you, d-d-do
But do you want to come on
Scooch on over closer dear
And I will nibble your ear

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed

I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Come on and open up your mind and see like me
(I won't hesitate)
Open up your plans and damn you're free
(No more, no more)
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
(It cannot wait, I'm sure)

So please don't, there's no need
(There's no need to complicate)
There's no need to complicate
(Our time is short)
'Cause our time is short
(This is our fate)
This is, this is, this is our fate
I'm yours

Oh, I'm yours
Oh, I'm yours
Oh, whoa, baby you believe I'm yours
You best believe, best believe I'm yours
