wow, I wish they would have had more people review the video so they would have had the two magicians names right when they were bending metal. Banachek has become an excellent magician.

Ol' Randi was recently going through chemotherapy, so I hope the curmudgeon is doing well. And yes, all the so-called psychics on youtube should put up or shut up. Go develop a protocol with Alison Smith at the JREF, win the million, then give the money to starving orphans -- or travel around the world. But don't belly ache about not being able to do your "talent" under those "impossible" circumstances. If you can do it, you can do it. But you can't.

Randi seems like he was born looking like Santa Claus.

Randi is a legend! Some day I would LOVE to go to TAM and actually meet him. He's done so much for rationalism over such a short amount of time. Mr. Randi, if you go browsing through Youtube and notice this comment, know that your efforts are appreciated immensely by many; they are not done in vain.

Those young kids were smart! I like how one of them was so clever he came up with an idea that led him to see how the camera man operated and then he came up with a method of eliminating that problem. Very clever.

yes, the captions are backwards. :) And the two kids were told to tell the truth if anyone asked them how they did it. They were never asked until Randi asked them in public which you saw on the video. "we cheat"
