"In reality, however, Geller, an experienced magician and showman, simply bends the objects when no one is watching. But, you may argue, millions of people were watching him on TV! Geller is a master at an essential tool of the magician: misdirection or distracting peoples' attention. He is quite good at projecting an air of innocence that belies his actions. That he can fool so many people is a tribute to slight-of-hand (sic) artistry, not psychic power." Puthoff, H. E., & Targ, R. (1976).

Normative database comparison of Harribance’s EEG spectra to those of the general population revealed possible signs of decreased functioning across some of his brain regions, in particular the occipital, frontal, and temporal lobes. 26This was confirmed by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), which provides higher resolution of brain activity. 27 RNG Psychokinesis (PK) Studies

For each trial, one has been selected at random by the ESP Trainer. Your task is to choose the correct square. Targ, R. (1996). Remote viewing at Stanford Research Institute in the 1970s: A memoir. Journal for Scientific Exploration 10/1, 77-88. In a 1997 study, Cheryl Alexander at the Rhine Research Center found concentrations of alpha activity in the occipital and parietal cortex that was not present when Harribance was relaxed during rest periods, an indication that his psi ability is related both to a relaxed state (high alpha activity) and to specialized brain regions. 24

William Giroldini at the University of Padova tested the ability of 27 volunteers to bias random oscillating circuits, whose output was rendered as a vertical line on a screen. 32 Scoring was very significant (p = 0.00001) and was associated with alpha EEG expression.

He took an interest in the Church of Scientology in the late 1960s and reached what was then the top OT VII level by 1971. [5] Puthoff wrote up his "wins" for a Scientology publication, claiming to have achieved " remote viewing" abilities. [6] In 1974, Puthoff also wrote a piece for Scientology's Celebrity magazine, stating that Scientology had given him "a feeling of absolute fearlessness". [7] Puthoff severed all connection with Scientology in the late 1970s. [8]This game can provide the first steps toward experiencing and developing the psychic abilities hidden within us all. Very hard for a skeptic to say that didn’t happen if the president is saying these guys in California found the airplane,” Targ tells Inverse. “We did many things like that.” The accounts he’s collected double down on two points: The data on extrasensory perception are real, and since they’re real, our fundamental understanding of reality needs to change.
