  • you are a complete idiot and this is why he does what he does to show idiots like you how dumb you really are

  • You don't know anything about ethics, your behavior proves it....

  • Haha, "comment pending approval". Just as I suspected. *rolls eyes*

    No one is going to take you seriously when you censor.

  • That is one desperate man. How fucking sad is it that? You're backed into a corner because you have no evidence of your "psychic powers" so you try and sully someones character? YOU are the one who should be charged because what YOU are doing is illegal. You are intentionally trying to ruin James Randi's reputation with NO evidence, THAT IS PUNISHABLE BY LAW.

  • Randi doesn't have followers, you tool. He doesn't need them. He also doesn't need any special effects when he talks.

  • amazing randi exposes himself,shit i thought he got his cock out or something

  • If someone is breaking a law in your opinion then find evidence for it otherwise your opinion is useless and only smears the name of innocence. The so called evidence that you have shown is not sufficient to call anyone a criminal.

  • I don't even understand why you would post this.... obviously he had no negative intentions...

  • DAMMIT!! I wanted to see Randi expose himself, and yet he is fully clothed throughout the video! FRAUD! DON'T WATCH!

  • Yes, he prints fake money, but, no, it's not illegal to print fake money. It is only illegal if you print money with intent to defraud. You do not provide any reason for us to believe Randi had intent to defaud. You've only given us reason to believe that his intent was to warn against fraud.

  • I CALL BULLSHIT ON THIS GUY!

  • op is a faggot

  • Lol @ having to use the tag "Criss Angel". Still sucking his dick? Anyhow, this is a demonstration of how the pens used to pick up legitimate bills often fail due to starch manipulation. He's not printing his own money, he's trying to improve the monetary system by pointing out flaws WITHOUT deception! You are one dumb fuck...

  • This is laughable! What was your point again? All this seems to show is that James Randi is interesting and intelligent.

  • this is bullshit

  • Comment removed

  • Your a dumbass and your stupid ISP is a hoax witch everyone knows that's why it's 2010 and your a nobody . Lmao - Why are you so pissed at James Randi did he prove you were a phony I bet he did cry baby. Oh and did you see the bill it's not illeagle if he has it marked not legal tender I'm sure Randi covered his ass. Stop your crying you sound like a little girl

  • The comments and video ratings (6 likes, 122 dislikes) demonstrate that people HAVE made up their own mind, despite you telling them what to think.

    The hammering you're getting is highly entertaining to read - Note the spelling of the word "You're", by the way. Now contrast this with the spelling you have in this video.

    Do you actually believe the crap that you spout or are you just a liar?

  • I dont think this spent enough time focusing on this pen problem, that was cool what he was doing. ps, what is that guy selling at the end of this Randi video?

  • You are a loathsome moron.

  • Jimmy, I'm studying psychology in Europe. You have ADHD, antisocial tendencies, and many other obstacles in your life that you need to overcome. Stop posting these videos on the net, and come to terms with yourself. I don't know you, but I think you're only hurting yourself by uploading these videos on youtube. I don't like Randi, I think he's self-absorbed and fanatical, but lying about him isn't helping your cause. Take a break from all this. Quit. Peace.

  • Context is everything Mr Jim, and you're out of it. I think your Paranormalism is getting to you.

  • and you must be very desperate

  • you are a very sad person

  • showing that we need more effective ways to tell fake bills from real ones is a real fucking crime, isnt it. and you're wrong you profit from scaming and randi profits from showing you to be a fag.

  • didnt get the joke..will come back later though..... anyways ... rippin on a guy for one mistake while he has done so much for the people ......that just shows how inhuman we are... randy's haters are mostly trick stars themselves who are rationally angry at him because he debunks their lies

  • I find you to be extremely annoying jerk. How does it feel to be an idiot?

  • Lol u only got 2,000 views. You are special Jim Callahan... so special. Maybe you could win $1,000,000 and prove the world that you are in fact not a fraud. Take randi up on his challenge, unless ur a PHONY. Everyone look he's a PHONY!!!!

  • It is a ridiculous accusation you are making. Randi is only using the fake bill for demonstration.

  • Stop making petty attempts to attack James Randi and spend more time trying to prove your "powers".

    If you really have special powers, why don't you cooperate with scientists and maybe use the new discoveries to benefit the human race?

    Instead you play mystic creepy new-age music, stinking of a low production marketing promotion.

  • @blabby102 - He's playing the age old game of "Calling your mother fat will make my mother thin". A fallacy, of course.

  • As JuryDutySummons said, "Counterfeiting requires the intent to use the bill as currency. Randie ripped it up before handing it out, otherwise he could have gotten in trouble." Even if that wasn't true, then why the hell don't you try to go ahead and get every single magic company and distributor shut down, because after all, they do make and/or distribute fake money. But it's for entertainment, not illegal activities. Dumbass. Why don't you stop wasting your time and prove your powers?

  • why are you all of the sudden trying to attack james randi? you should be trying to prove your paranormal powers. that would seem like it would hit randi pretty hard if you suceeded,

  • Counterfeiting requires the intent to use the bill as currency. Randie ripped it up before handing it out... (otherwise he COULD have gotten in trouble.) I learned about this when my brother was arrested for counterfeiting... The charges were latter dismissed without a trial.

    Ad hominem arguments like this don't prove your legitimate. It only gos to show that either you don't know how to present a point or that you have no point to present. 

  • 25 seconds in. What does the word contovertial mean? Sorry if it is a stupid question but I have never seen or heard that word before.

  • If you want to see the whole video and not just a small cut out, youtube "James Randi talks about the Secret Service".

    He was talking about this pen which is suppose to pick up fake bills but instead just picks up the startch content in paper which makes the pen invention false. He's not printing money you fool.

    Besides, attacking Randi personally doesn't make your claims correct. Geesh how low can you sink. Face it, you are a fake.

  • I suppose that's been reported to proper authorities? If not, why not?

  • You could give a rat ass as to him breaking the law.If you think you are going to get him in trouble for this you would have to be a complete fool.With your call to the s s you would see serious action but i guarentee you you never will . Dont hate him cause he exposes people as the true frauds that they are. I will say this i love how you handled the Chris Angel incident that guy is such a fuckin liar ive caught him in so many lies.

  • How low can you go as an "Entertainer???"

    Mr. I garantee this I garantee that, your full off sh*t!

    Try some acting lessond, everything you do is so fake! I garantee it will help!!!

  • @Goudenkooigevecht Gosh you are a funny toy. I am sure others will find your comments as much fun as I do...Thanks for being so easy.

  • @TheParanormalist You are welcome.

    If you want more fun, just contact me again!

    Best wishes,

    FT

  • @TheParanormalist

    You are welcome.

    If you want more fun, just contact me again!

    Best wishes,

  • @TheParanormalist what the fuck...

  • @TheParanormalist Everyone trashes you because you are trash. Nobody likes you. Also it is true, you are a terrible actor.

  • Another "psychic" terrified of Randi

  • lololololol. I don't know what to say. This is idiotic.

  • Jim Callahan, you need help.  This is just pathetic.

  • Seems like everyone hates Jim Callahan...

    Good, because he's a walking pile of shit.

  • It seems clear that you are on the offensive because you are scared of Randi and his hobby of debunking pcychics such as yourself, or maybe you hope to encourage Randi to direct his attention to you for purposes of media? The second seems more likely to me, because you are not even the most controversial pcychic on that television show, Uri Geller has been debated even before you were done pissin in diapers.

  • you are a hack that preys on peoples hopes and fears concerning death and the after life, and you do it for a profit

    you think you are hot shit in a martini glass, but you are cold diarrhea in a dixie cup

  • The most unbelievable part of this video is that he has 50K loooooooooooooooooooooosa

  • this was waste of 5:23 of my life except for the randi part hes great. Jim is a used condom with a hole in it. Asswipe

  • You just know that James Randi laughed his ass off when he saw this. I'm truly saddened for you Jim, you are a sick man.

  • Jim Callahan is a complete ass-clown who scams people for money by pretending to talk to their dead relatives and even offers jobs to people for when they are dead. Wonder how much he charges to score you a job in the afterlife. what a loser

  • what!? LMAO thats bloody moronic, he photocopied it as part of a trick, its not counterfeit money any more than chocolate coins are counterfeit money.

  • Is that seriously the best you can do to try and smear James Randi? Why don't you send Raymond to haunt him or something? Gimmie a break...

  • oh my god i used to believe james randi and now it turns out he photocopied a bill as part of a demonstration. what a cunt i hope he dies.

  • jim your acting sucks. your fake and transparent laughs as you explain what we're about to see already let me know that i'm about to see a poor argument.

  • Wow.

    This is one of the most pathetic woeful arguments I've ever seen.

    I am stunned that someone could be so deluded, and so threatened by James Randi that you vomit up this poorly conceived little "expose" and not only waste everyone's time, but outline what a mentally deficient sub human parasite you actually are.

    James Randi photocopied a 20 dollar bill.

    You capitalise on the manipulation of grieving people's emotions, and profit from their deaths.

    You make me sick.

  • I have seen so many many in the store. We should turn in Walmart's Toy Department to the Feds. Jim should do a video on Walmart's counterfeiting "Toy Money". I have seen teachers use this "Toy Money" in school. Unless... just bare with me... James was using it for educational purposes or "just for fun" just like a teacher would... But, I doubt it, SUE the TEACHERS and Walmar too.

  • Oh, for those that don't understand the meaning of SARCASTIC look it up.

  • That bill that Randi printed never leaves the room, never circulates in society, is never used to purchase anything nor is it exchanged against anything, it is clearly mentioned as a printed bill and is destroyed and torned in tiny peices in the few minutes that follow. Illigal means printing money in order to use it as fraud, which was not the case here.

  • Man, this is some sad shit. Part of me wants to feel sad for Jim; he reminds me of a toddler crying and trying to hit an adult.

    Jim, if you can offer huge sums of money for people's deaths, perhaps you can spare 5 bucks to hire a third-grader to proof read your videos. Numbnuts.

  • Jim Callahan sucks balls. Thanks for showing us how full of shit you are. Maybe you'll win douchebag of the year if you keep working at it.

  • Jim Callahan may not say, with any degree of validity that any petty thing Randi has done is disturbing to children. You may not lie, cheat, and hurt grieving people, and then talk about someone like Randi damaging people/children. Its absurd. You'd think if the psychics were so confident in there abilities, they would just ignore the investigators, or they would do the one thing none of them seem to do.

    Take. The. Challenge.

  • Serious dude, stop making videos that make you look pitiful. Randi never tried to pass a bad bill. This is legal for demonstrations.

  • this is exactly the same as they show how bump keys can pick locks on the local news, or electronic voting machines can have the results tampered with, or pen ink can be washed off stolen chicks... james is clearly trying to expose a problem with a common anti-counterfeiting measure so it will be improved upon

    duhrrrrrrrrrrrrr ?

  • It was a demonstration; he was showing that "Counterfeit banknote detection pens" really are not as effective as they say they are. He is not out to fool people for profit; as a magician he is showing people that they can be fooled. Why would one of the most recognized and renown skeptics in the scientific world be a counterfeiter? That just doesn't add up.I think you like most "experts in the paranormal" are trying to grab the walls of the downward spiral that skepticism has sent you down...

  • Jim Callahan is BULLSHIT!

    nobody can contact the dead!!!

  • You're saying he's a counterfeiter because he xeroxed a bill to prove that detector pens don't work?

    You're a sad little man, Jim Cunningham. You had a shot at the big time, got pwned on national television, and you've been reduced to making angry v-logs that can't even top two thousand views on Youtube. That girl with the makeup advice gets more hits than you.

  • Playgay007 thanks for all of your posts and proving my point about you cult boys.

    Gosh you guys are easy to play with.

    Hide from the truth if you want but it does not change that it is the truth.

    LOL!!!

    -Jim

  • Comment removed

  • The only truth youve shown is that James Randi can make a fake bill. You know what i think is strange? A wise and rich man like Randi who could be a good counterfitter is he would need it that shows hes ways with a camera in the same room. Not a very good bad guy.. Get over yourself

  • @TheParanormalist Oooh, "playgay"? That's very mature from someone who claims to speak to the dead. No wonder you're so delusional you've got the maturity of a four year old.

  • @TheParanormalist Wow... you call Chris angel a bigot, simply because he challenges you to reveal what the contents of a sealed envelope are... but here you are calling someone gay... as though it's an insult. Seems like you're the bigger bigot. How old are you? 40 something? Why don't you grow up man? My little sister knows better than that.

  • @spike1608 Not sure who you think I am calling gay. Perhaps you could point out were that is.

  • @TheParanormalist You said to playrway007 "Playgay007 thanks for all of your posts and proving my point about you cult boys."

    You are clearly calling him gay.

    It's a nice spin on the traditional Ad Hominem attack, trying to make it discreet and all.

  • I wonder what happened to all those television interviews, you THOUGHT you were going to get after having been knocked off Phenomenon, week 1. Hmmmm. Thats a MYSTERY. And the television shows? I guess Raymond cant answer that one for you.

    It's impossible to recover, when you witnessed (first hand) your career CRUMBLE in front of your eyes, while 40 million people watch on in COMIC amazement. I can say that I was laughing my ASS OFF that night; and still am.

  • Does anyone have some Vagsil for little Jimmy Callahan? Because I think he's going to need a lifetime supply, continually clearing up that Vaginitus; crying like a little baby back bitch backstage, without two nickels to rub together, and as he attempts to resurrect a career he clearly NEVER had.

  • Of course, if you want to remain in the con business, you could always try looking up James Hydrick, Uri Gellar, Sylvia Browne, John Edward, etc, etc Im sure theyre in need of someone to wipe their little asses too, when they get spanked by gentlemen such as Mr. Criss Angel and Mr. James Randi.

    But by all means, give my comment credence by replying with some more LAME DIOLOGUE, which just proves my point further about the NEVER HAS BEEN: Jimmy Vaginitus Callahan. Sweet Dreams Bitch.

  • this callahan guy is just sad. he should turn his career to singing covers of ice ice baby

  • Coriolan, LMAO.....ice ice baby

  • US Code,TITLE 18,PART I, CHAPTER 25

    Section 472. Uttering counterfeit obligations or securities Whoever, with intent to defraud, passes, utters, publishes, or sells, or attempts to pass, utter, publish, or sell, or with like intent brings into the United States or keeps in possession or conceals any falsely made, forged, counterfeited, or altered obligation or other security of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

    I see no violation.

  • Pathetic attempt to vilify James Randi. You really suck at digging up dirt!

    "Oh noes, hes corrupting teh kids by making them aware of reality!"

  • lol hes not counterfiting hes proving that test pens dont work Iv done this my self I didnt spend the fake money (nor did he) I just wanted to see if the test pens work or not

  • Well if James Randi is a liar as you say he is how do you know that was not a real $20. bill that he is claiming is fake? He could have taken a real $20 bill and ripped it up and handed it to someone saying it was fake. they then throw it in the trash can. He of course might in reality be charging an extra $20 for his demonstration and consideres it a wash and if he is lucky he will be able to go to the trash can and pick out the pieces tape them together and exchange that bill for a new one.

  • James Randi is, and always will be, a better man than you. Give up hating.

  • You say that Randi is:

    "ethically corrupt and he misleads people to serve his own ends."

    Isn't that funny... You just described yourself to a tee!

  • Oh come on! How desperate can you get? Randi was only doing a demonstration, and wasn't breaking any laws. Making stage or play money isn't illegal, only making counterfiet, which would need to be an exact copy of a bill. Did you examine Randi's bill? Hell, maybe he had YOUR face on it instead of Andrew Jackson's. But if you want to talk about crime, how about your promising to have somebody die on your web show? You sir, are one sick fuck!

  • You are incorrect and the law says so.

  • Really? Then I guess every store carrying the Monopoly game is due to be raided soon, eh Jimbo?

    Don't be so lame!! LMAO!!

  • you sir, are an idiot

  • Nice use of language-"it's not for me to say IT'S STUPID make your own minds up, THE OTHER THING THAT IS DISTURBING"(this 'suggests' the '1st thing' is disturbing, a reinforcing technique used in hyponosis)...."figure it out for yourself, IT'S NOT APPROPRIATE" (didn't leave much chance to 'figure it out for ourselves'). Even ignoring your discourse & retortic, the question, is why do you need to use a persuasive speech? Why not just show the clip and really let us 'figure it out for ourselves'?

  • I don't even think that's James Randi -- that guy's back was way too bent.

  • You're in THIS for profit faggot. It's an insult to yourself to have a video of you trying to expose basically NOTHING to the master of scam/con artist exposing

    Long live Jame Randi! so he can own pieces of shit like you, that are just blind and believe nothing

  • Gosh you cult kids are funny toys.

  • all this mother fucker wants to do is get back at randi

  • This isn't the first time I've seen the "amazing" Randi, pull stunts like this to make money. The moneymaking scam I saw was a few years. His scam involved an audience and a black hat. In front of the audience he would create a live rabbit out of the hat. How as he making money from this? Easy. After the show he would sell the rabbit for $20 to a pet shop. He could just continue doing this money making scam, creating and selling rabbits. It was a licence to print $20 bills. Where will it end?!!

  • I would think the amazing Callahan could afford better video quality.

  • You are hardly the most controversial artist. You are vaguely unpleasant. A charlatan for sure in that you make up claims. Any fool can read the JREF forums for themselves to see what a liar you are.

  • No wonder you lost on "Phenomenon". The true 'Phenomenon' is watching you desperately grab for straws to portray Randi as an evil criminal. Yes, counterfeiting is a crime, but you forget to mention your verbal and attempted physical assault on Criss Angel is a crime also; undoubtedly of much more severity than using a photocopier.

    Randi's lectures teach us lessons and make up think critically. What do your 'performances' teach us? - That you can't control your temper can't take criticism.

  • Nope you are wrong.

    Please move along.

  • Yep you JREF cult people are really working hard not to face the truth.

    You attempt personal attacks and pick at anything you can to not address the truth.

    But I did fid your assessment of Randi funny.

    "So you attack people who are successful,closet homosexual I think."

    I think I will use that quote by you Mavis and place it on my website.

    Thanks

    Jim

  • Are you capable of speaking the truth? So far, I haven't seen evidence of that.

  • It's almost painful to watch and realize how pathetic you are... wow.

  • Says the guy who juggles.

    I guess that says it all.

    Go play with your ball man.

    -Jim

  • dude..........you are such a idiot......

  • I have just seen your performance on the Paranormal show. James Randi has more integrity in a bead of sweat than you have in your whole body.

    Do yourself a favour and pull this video as it makes you look like a complete gonad and thats not good for the ego now is it?

  • As far as I know, it's only criminal if your intention is to pass off the copy as the real thing - e.g. if it's a counterfeit consumer product like a Gucci handbag, to sell it; if it's counterfeit money, to spend it, make change from it, deposit it at a bank, etc.

    Randi's "counterfeit" was a one-off for a magic trick, he explained clearly that it wasn't the real thing, and he destroyed it at the end of the performance. Not counterfeit.

  • Jim, could we by any chance have an update on what the authorities had to say about this matter?

    On a separate note, you mention that on your Halloween show, somebody will die. Are there any more details available on this currently? Ie, who will die, how they will die?

    Thanks.

  • Fist off al I am looking into the matter of this being a crime or not.

    If it is not I will pull the video.

    The Halloween show is currently under production.

    The next posted video will deal with it.

    Part of the show will be done through YouTube for those who Subscribe to my videos.

    In fact there is little chance of seeing it if you don't see the video posted on Halloween to start the presentation.

    But it will only be up for a short time.

    one to two hours.

    Jim

  • Ah ok, so will it eventually be up in YouTube once it's all been completed and edited?

    Or do I have to catch it within the couple of hours it's available?

  • Is that how "paranormalists" do things? Accuse someone of committing a federal crime on a video website and THEN look into it?

    There were probably only a few of the children you pretend to be so woried about in Randi's audience that day. But kids swarm to YouTube where they might see your video of the very thing which you pretend to fear will give them a bad idea.

    Jim, you're so transparent it's amazing that you even show up on camera.

  • Sure seems like it. Jim's accusation that 'Randi admits to committing a Federal Crime' is right there.

    But hey, its not up to me to say that Jim is being stupid.

    Its also fun when he tries to play the 'Someone PLEASE think of the children' card.

    Its funny how pathetic little Jimmy talked up this video after his last failed video failed soooo bad. I think his sad efforts to drum up publicity are going to fall flat.

  • I fyou notice one of my prior responses on here you will see US regulations re:counterfeit bills.You can clearly see it isn't a crime.Maybe you should have checked this fact before uploading the video.

    How much more egg can fit on your smug face?

  • Jim -

    How about doing the honorable thing, which would be to pull the video *now*, and re-post it when you have evidence that what Randi did was a crime?

  • We saw a VIDEO of Randi handing off a fake bill that he was very proud about producing. Did you not see the crime? Open your eyes... lol

    Great video Jim!

  • Comment removed

  • What... a... load... of... shite...

  • Really? If it's illegal how do companies TEST counterfeit detection devices?

  • Wait, where do you see Jim Callahan admitting to a federal crime in the video???

  • Wow, my comment challenging you to let me take your test never got thru', you exercising some censorship Jim? Still too scared to let me show your test for what it is, a convoluted con.

  • kyleennk you're a sock puppet account and not very convincing.

    If I were a cynic, I would say you were an account of Jim or someone close to him.

    The fact is that youre creating fake accounts to bolster support for your petty jabs at a man far superior to you in talent. Its unimaginably pathetic.

  • The only thing you are exposing is yourself as a very petty pathetic person. How sad to go through life as you. If the FBI come knocking it will be to take you away for wasting their time.

  • Since the Cafe has seen the wisdom of deleting your nonsense about this, I'll put a stop to it here.

    My previous reference here to Section 474 was not the pertinent section for this issue. Section 472 is. Titled, "Uttering counterfeit obligations or securities", it begins, "Whoever, with intent to defraud..."

    Randi had no intent to defraud. Like a bank consultant, paid to teach tellers about counterfeit bills by showing examples, he is within the law.

    End.

  • You are incorrect.

    The document you are quoting from gives very specific rules. It was disscussed on another forum but you know that.

    I know you want to pick the parts you need to make your case. That is how people are.

    But at least by your post you admitt Randi was and possibly still is printing money.

    Possibly at the JREF

    -Jim

  • I am correct. Anybody can read it for themselves in black and white. Just searh USC Title 18, Section 472 and see for yourself.

  • Here doosh.Word for word. Whoever, with intent to defraud, passes, utters, publishes, or sells, or attempts to pass, utter, publish, or sell, or with like intent brings into the United States or keeps in possession or conceals any falsely made, forged, counterfeited, or altered obligation or other security of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

  • Nowhere in my post do I, "admit Randi was and possibly still is printing money." But everybody can see that.

    Nowhere in the document I quoted are, "very specific rules" other than the words that are now posted here. Everybody can see that here or google it and read it themselves in several places on the internet.

    Yes, I know how people are. Especially petty, vindictive people who are so damaged that they need to defame others to get satisfaction.

  • I paid to see a guy saw a woman in half once. But half an hour later, I saw her walking around, in one piece.

    I should have sued the guy for fraud!

  • Photocopied.Not printed.There is a difference!

    You have more videos! wow.Randi must be shaking in his boots.Considering how lame all youre videos turn out to be.

    You are offically boring Jim.

  • Oh and I forgot to add, your description 'a questionable clip' is certainly very apt :)

    I question why you think this clip proves anything, and your motives are indeed very questionable.

  • Dear Jim Callahan, what is your point here?

    The only thing you have proved is your own idiocy, I see nothing to do with the the JREF, and trick notes are not counterfeiting!!

    Why not be honest and explain why you are trying to discredit Randi...?

    Of course charlatans like yourself who prey on the gullible have a lot to fear from skeptics, fortunately it is easy to see through your lame little misdirections.

    What a sad little self-promoting man you are.

  • There is absolutely no evidence of a federal crime here. Watch carefully. You never see the bill close up, and when Randi shows it to the audience member it never leaves his hand. His hand covers part of the front of the bill.

    Randi is an expert in sleight of hand. I've seen him up close. So if he wanted to print only half a $20 and only on one side, but make it look real to the audience, he certainly has the skills to do this.

    Callahan, prepare for the FBI to laugh at you when you call.

  • You guys are acting more and more like some sort of cult looking for any way to protect your leader.

    So not willing to face the truth.

    Well guess what this aint the only video.

    Oh yes I have lots of stuff to post.

    Each video will be worse. For instance the first was tame this one a little less so.

    Wait till you see what I have in the way of secret recordings.

    -Jim

    -Jim

  • What've you got? Randi admitting to jay walking? Taking the "Do not remove under penality of law" tags off his pillows. Putting non-recycables in the recycle bin?

    Jim you should invest your time in making something of yourself and stop wasting it on trying to annoy those who have already made it.

  • Well looks to me like a felony type deal.

    (On this video)

    I am not doing this for just myself.

    Just not that self centered.

    The JREF should not be a tax exempt in my opinion.

    And since Randi is the guy who makes people follow the truth the rules etc.

    I say what is good for the goose is good for the guy printing money.

    He made a gaint misstake in promoting Angel and the lies.

    That is why I use the truth.

  • So, what did the FBI say when you reported it?

  • Please note that the FBI does not investigate reports of counterfeiting U.S. currency.

  • I've been corrected. I wonder how the Secret Service reacted when they were shown the video. Has TheParanormalist even reported this? If he hasn't, why not? If he's so sure a crime has been committed why doesn't he call the authorities? Wouldn't being arrested for counterfeiting be far worse for Randi than a bunch of youtube videos???

  • It's not a felony. I've spoken with someone who was in the room at the time this video was shot, and one of the things I mention at the top of this thread vis-a-vis sleight of hand is in fact correct. I'll leave it at that.

    The bill would never pass muster as a counterfeit.

    Callahan, on the other hand, is totally a counterfeit.

  • "Think a little trick boy." To me is an insult, ask James why he did it? If it's an experiment and he lets people know like the government then surly they will appreciate that so they can change the way money is made? Logic to me... Il ask him James why did you do it?

  • So you reply by insults how educational, I cant see The James Randie school of counterfeiting in the clip? I cant see him telling people how it works? But I guess your just a person that accuses rather than asks? I am not a little trick boy I am a 49 year old male from the UK trying to put some sense into that you posted.

  • Well I don't see the insult and if you don't understand that in the USA we are not permitted to print money what can I do?

    He clearly admitts he printed it.

  • What a lot of fuss over nothing lol

  • Yep federal crime is nothing and explaining to kids how to do it and why they can get away with it is a good thing also.

    Think a little trick boy.

    -Jim

  • Again, what did the FBI say when you reported this?

  • Before or after they stopped laughing at TheParanormalist?

  • Wow... the stupid is amazing....

    Well, that Jim calls this a crime is the stupidest part of this video however.

    He used the 'bill' as an example and destroyed it at the end. It's printed on standard paper in a standard photocopier? Then it should never be confused as the real thing due to size and feel differences.

    You target the stupid and the ignorant with your "mystical feats" in the same way that Sylvia Browne and John Edward do. Won't YOU think of the children?

  • Title 18, Part 1, Chapter 25, Section 474, (b): "The Secretary shall establish a system to ensure that the legitimate use of such electronic methods and retention of such reproductions by businesses, hobbyists, press and others shall not be unduly restricted."

  • That does not apply in this instance.

    However since you think it does please tell us what that system is that you made note of in the very small part of the document you quoted from.

    I think you know that it does not apply and so does Randi judging from what he says on the clip.

    Best Wishes,

    Jim

  • Why does it not apply in this instance? Because it would make your position even more ridiculous? Anybody can Google it from what I posted and read the whole thing for themselves.  I think the Secret Service would need to explain it in full. But it IS there in black and white.

    I predicted your statement, re; "what he (Randi) says in the clip" in the 'Magic names in the media' section of the Cafe. Ha, I'm psychic!

    Jim, you need a hobby.

  • Now you are being intellectually dishonest.

    You have be provided information on another forum that proves you are wrong by a person very well acquainted with this law.

    That's the truth is it not?

    Jim

  • I have provided no information on another forum that proves I am wrong by a person very well acquainted with this law.

    As an artist, the truth is very real to me.

    For it to be put there is not part of my work.

    Most will understand. Those that do not can only see the distance of the horizon.

    They can only help themselves.

  • Yes their are established systems but making a 100% reproduced bill is not allowed. Even in the film and theatre graphic artist must recreate something that looks similar to a bill, but is quite obvious not a real bill when looked at. A number of years back an extremely well known company that produces obvious fakes for the entertainment industry was shut down for a period of time. If you are confident in your position then make a youtube video of yourself making copies of real money. Good luck.

  • It's difficult for me to tell in the video that the bill in question was "a 100% reproduced bill." What kind of monitor are you watching it on?

  • Amazing! What was the FBI's response when you reported this?

  • I guess you didn't report it? Does that make you an accomplice?

  • Why yes, I think it DOES make him an accomplice. Remember that posting a video to youtube (or myspace) does NOT give you a pass when it comes to failing to report a crime.

  • It was close, but I think this is lamer than your Dragon Con video.
