The Randi Million Dollar Challenge

The famous sceptic, James Randi, offers a million dollar prize for anyone who can show that they have any paranormal abilities. To date, many have tried – dowsers, psychics, mediums, clairvoyants, homeopaths, you name it, they’ve tried and failed. The tests take the form of an agreed protocol between the JREF and the applicant and usually involve a double blind type of experiment. All seems very fair to me, but not one single person has got past the preliminary stage. Wouldn’t you think that one of those stars who do TV and stage shows would jump at the chance to make a shedload of money? I wonder why they don’t. |
