Michael Shermer Spoonbending

ok sure you can how come paople always spoon bend with the spoon in their hand? if you can bend a spoon with your mind place it on a table and make it bend without touching it if you claim to have physics surpassing ability surpass air and bend the spoon without touching it

lol Before you can bend the spoon, you must first realize that their actualy isnt any spoon Neo LOLOL dont take the red pill

If someone has real psychic power, why do they keep puttering around with bending spoons, guessing face down cards and any of such banal parlor tricks? If I had such powers, I'll be well on my way to world domination by now. :)

these people think that its really hard to bend cheap flatware, lame.

Saw a live demonstration of this done before me with audience, friend even checked the forks as they were banged hard against the floor to verify mechanical integrity. The prongs of the fork were quite easily made to bend in all directions right before our eyes, without any physical contact except on the handle of the fork. Another fork was made to twist at the handle, and to proof that was no magic trick, it happened while within my friend's closed palm, without any physical force! Very real.

the spoon only gets weak if its bent first, rrpaul. ive done this experiment and it worked. i didnt feel any extra heat. it might just be adrenaline, but that is still amazing. without any drugs, the body is able to push limits through just concentration. try concentrating before maxing out your bench and see if there is a difference.

THERE IS NO SPOON

By trying to bend the utensils BEFOREHAND, they actually really weakened the metal, so if they kept trying, they would get it eventually ANYWAY.

This IS simple physics.

thx

duhh.. the point of PK is not to heat up the spoon... but make your mind think it is.. making your body surpass the physics. i can bend a spoon like the guy did too... and not becouse of adrenaline or w/e... its becouse i make my mind up that its possible.. and thus.. i can surpass the phtsical limits of my body
