By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Sceptic James Randi dies..he offered via his institute 1 million dollars to anyone proving the existence of ghosts or supernatural phenomena ..the $1000000 was never claimed ...

interesting chap who got into some heated debates.

Somewhere In The Ether…

I used to love watching the show he had on ITV many years ago.

He was a very gifted stage magician, particularly involving sleight of hand skills.

RIP

Very sad news. He was an outstanding person, devoting so much in order to aim to get some answers to things that affect many people.

Despite his huge investment of time, money etc, the lack of anyone being able to provide credible evidence of paranormal abilities over so very many years, we're perhaps not so much advanced on from the times when we were founding ancestors of our species, who ascribed mystical powers to unknown world around them.

Psychic Sally, amongst others, refused to undertake scientific analysis. Wanting to believe in the magical is very attractive to us. If only 1 person had managed to demonstrate a skill, we could have potentially helped to settle things in a way that supports people spending £millions on woo.

I saw the idea of coming back as a ghost, saying "well, this is awkward" with an eyebrow wiggle
