Michael Crichton, a Harvard MD, has done it, claims it's real, and wonders what all the fuss is about. Various researchers from Stanford's Research Institute have taken part in it, and feel it's real. Before you laugh it off, first try to buckle the head of a stainless steel spoon. Nearly impossible, ain't it? Crichton swears he did it with the touch of a finger. To be fair, most beginners require a little bit of touching. But it's still impressive if it's real. Has anyone here been to a "spoon-bending" party? Experiences? http://www.crichton-official.com/fe...onbending.shtml http://wildcat.arizona.edu/papers/94/127/01_3_m.html http://www.jackhouck.com/pk.shtml http://fork-you.com http://www.psiresearch.org/spoon.htm http://www.metroactive.com/papers/m...nding-0348.html MERLIN i was listening to art bell yesterday and he had some dude on talking about that. i'll give a look at the links. djdust whoa- that's really weird. and inevitably- it alludes to the Matrix. I'm sure that someone will soon claim that they have dodged 200+ bullets by moving incredibly fast. Nonetheless... :wtf: nchs09 im kindda lazy, how do u do it?!?!?! benh i call *cough* BS! *cough* "To be fair, most beginners require a little bit of touching. But it's still impressive if it's real" yah its call using your fingers, applying pressure, and beting the spoons! haha wow! pictures of bent spoons! that is so amazing! where can i sign up! hahahaha Flyboy217 quote: Originally posted by benh i call *cough* BS! *cough* wow! pictures of bent spoons! that is so amazing! where can i sign up! hahahaha An intelligent and valuable insight. Thanks. I don't suppose you tried flattening the head of a spoon yourself (with your bare hands, that is)? But I suppose your mind is already made up, since you're smarter than Stanford and Harvard trained research scientists and doctors. benh oh please , just amazing how easily ppl are fooled into believing crap like this! "An intelligent and valuable insight" oh and look at the topic we are discussing!? bending spoons with our minds!

Do you have anything *intelligent* to say? Lumps Penn and Teller - Bull season 01 episode 10 about ESP and such debunks this.

Ahh yes, if I recall correctly... the "magician" performs a sleight of hand without the audience seeing it. Trouble is, Crichton did it himself... after physically trying as hard as he could (and failing) to bend the head of the spoon. Debunking wack is fun, but these haven't been debunked yet.
