      @@dougr8646 As a psychology student, this is very true. But I think with psychologists, we don't lie by claiming that a dead person told us their grief comes from a traumatic event from their childhood. Fake guys like this psychic are a dime a dozen and that their doing, personally, is profiting from lies and scamming people. There's no dead ghosts or spirits talking to them - all rubbish!

      as much as i totally agree with you here, and i have no belief in spirits on the afterlife - i know for a fact that many people simply want to hear these things because, as derren says, it gives them comfort and in some cases closure - which although it happens under the guise of deceit, can really help some people move forward and heal themselves psychologically - nothing to do with spirits - just someone holding out a hand and giving another person support - like the church, if you look at it from another point of view.

    My brother passed and I know for sure, if he could reach me through a psychic, he wouldn't be saying stuff about the number of people in our family or the name of a random aunt we only met twice or someone's sore knee. He would be saying stuff like, "you're not gonna believe it, what a trip!" and then go on to tell me stuff about what he's going through. If we had one chance to communicate, neither of us would want to waste it on wondering who in the family didn't get a promotion they were hoping for.

      I can tell you so you maybe change your view about psychics .
      I have a friend who is a really good Psychic .
      She predicted something about me that absolutely nobody knew even I never wanted or knew anything and she argued with me what will happen with my life.
      Guess what the path that I wanted to take failed step after step and I end up with only one choice and that choice let me go where she exactly predicted.and this is only one prediction.
      Not only that but sometimes it was embarrassing because she would tell me stuff that I kept secret from anybody intimate things and she would directly ask me about that.
      So I talked to her and asked her how do you do it.
      And she says
      Some people have the gift to see but the problem with many is they cannot decipher the information.
      So this guy Joe could see random information and does not understand it correctly.
      So he will throw numbers persons stuff that come clear to him.
      He cannot understand the information and the things that he sees .
      That is the difference between good Psychic and bad.
      She said there are ones that see everything like a good story and some that see just small parts.
      Even she said I see something but I don't understand it it does not mean anything to me .
      So she just throws some words and says if it makes any sense to you it is ok I am telling you what I see but don't get it.
      So that is the difference .
      But cold reading Ang all that bs I know there are such people but I don't trust such people.
      To me a good Psychic hits stuff that only know .
      Example I was living 320 km away and went home she saw me and she said
      What is happening with the black hear girl ? You are in deep love aren't you going to tell her.
      I see the passion .
      How would she know when I was away 320 km and I met a girl and went with her a few night and was thinking to become dating her but did nothing.
      She described the girl like it was before her eyes with all the details ?
      Who can do this.
      Plus I went to talk to her about a completely different thing.
      And she started immediately about that girl.
      And have many more examples even predictions of the birth of my boys.

      @@EPICSOUNDTRAX So curious, does she say the dead are talking to her? What is the source of her hunches? Is she a mind reader?
      I was a pretty girl and started to develop early. We saw a gypsy with a crystal ball at a fair, she predicted many friends and many boyfriends in upcoming years, did she need a crystal ball to see that?
      I studied a lot of psychology to become a social worker. Often when I meet young people I can guess where they're headed and I;m correct. I can also meet older people and know things about their past. It's not mind reading or anything psychic, it's intuition.
      But also you said she asked you about things. If I ask have you met anyone and you blush, I'll conclude you're smitten. Again, intuition and a bit of understanding body language.
      Look, there was a million dollar prize on offer for years for anyone who could prove psychic ability. No one ever succeeded. 1964 till 2015.
      I think your friend has good intuition and if that's helpful for you, that's great.
      The prize was offered by a man named James Randi, he was a magician who later began exposing frauds, there are videos about him on youtube if you're interested.

      We were about to get married and she said
      Yes I see that you are going to get married and the witness will be a young guy your age.
      Well we already had a friend whiteness that is a girl .
      Then she said no no it will be a guy whiteness I don't see a girl.
      Guess what at the wedding day our girl cancels at the last minute so we basically pulled out phones and the only one who answered out phones was Matt and we went with him.
      So no it is not mind reading and I never gave her more information leading to her saying thing.
      Another example
      I had my plans 100% for Europe and I was 100% sure I will go to colleges in Europe
      And she said without me saying anything.ahe said
      Pack your stuff for USA I will miss you.
      I said what USA I don't even plant to go there and she said no everything that you plan now will not happen I see america.
      Same thing everything that I had for Europe went down the toilet .the last resort was USA plus she said without me telling her she said it is a girl that is inviting you and started smiling and said she will be.......and then nothing.
      Guess what my girlfriend refused to marry me and the girl that invited me is already 20 years my wife.
      I don't think she reads minds.
      Talking to the dead.i don't think so
      I don't think she does that
      But for sure she can predict the future.

      regardless. If you actually open your mind to the possibility of it, Then playing devils advocate what is the purpose? Also the 'afterlife' whatever that may be is always repoted to be a place without human emotions so ofcourse the loved ones would always say they are fine and reasure their loved ones because they are fine and they care about them. The specific proof for that person is relevant because the spirit is not trying to prove its that womans mum for your sake... They are doing it for the daughter who is getting te readings sake so IF psychics are real then it would look how it does appear from the more convincing ones. Craig and Jane Hamilton Parker are seen as the best psychics in the world right now and 100% genuine in their abilities and they have a UA-cam channel and i would recomend watching Craig as he makes big predictions that often time come true and we can discredit psychics due to the huge number of fakes out there but scientifically it is truely ignorant to say its not possible when the FBI have documents that are accesable to the public through their freedom of information requests a paper about Remote Viewing and a man went to the CIA in order to teach remote viewing with the intention of helping blind people see but the CIA tried to weaponise it. This man did prove in this FOI request you can see they acknowledge the findings of his results as true and it worked he managed to make a 100% blind person drive a car blindfolded using ESP. There has recently been a study showing we have found thehuman bodies cells vibrate at a resonant frequency. Psychics for centuries have been claiming they pick up different vibrations and thats a source of their ability and now we have proven with science that humans do vibrate on a cellular level. As time goes we will prove more and more with science. We already believe in the holographic principle and higher spacial dimensions so how ignorant do you have to be to discount it completely because we dont fully understand it. Im not talking about the Uri Gellers of the world im talking about the Psychics that before you walk in they did their circle they made contact with your loved one before you goto the meeting and when you go they literally have a piece of paper and read off all the things that were said a message and a future path they see for you. You cant just goto a psychic on the day and them contact a loved one tats not how it works. The psychic over many years has to perform a circle every week the exact same time without fail and over time it allows a bridge for spirits to communicate by the consistency of the circles and thats what allows a connection to be made. Jane Parker wont see you unless someonoe comes through for you in her weekly circle and alot of people are rejected if no one comes through for them so not being interested enough to try and understand how its supposed to work if it is real is the reason you will remain close minded. You cant make your mind up on everything in life based on what others tell you. sometimes you have to actually do the reasearch yourself. Notice how i phrase all of this. Im not saying Psychics are real im sayin IF they are this is my understanding of it based on the reasearch ive done but if you believe in Aliens. Whats to say Aliens are not from a higher spacial dimension and they cumminicate through vibrational energy by either increasing or descreasing their frequency to show something in our dimension just like a 3D sphere is a circle in 2D or your shadow is a 2D representation of you in the 2D but thats just the information that can go through lower spacial dimensions. The more you understand about physics and Quantum theories it actually is that science is leading towards proving the existence of ESP and proving that higher dimensional beings or objects are being projected into our 3D universe. Just like we project our 3D selves onto a 2D surface with our shadow. That is literally our information incoded on a 2D plane. So i hope if you read this it explains what im saying in a way you wont of heard it before.@@dionst.michael1482

    That was interesting that when Darren told the woman he is in no way psychic yet later she convinced herself that Darren was infact psychic, then Joe tried to get a hit with the affair, he knows with young attractive people often have affairs so he took a chance and missed. This entire program showed us that people want to believe and they connect the dots for themselves. People want to believe so badly that they do most of the work themselves. It is very easy to con people that are so eager to be conned.

We biked 15 km, went into a store, asked for a card- were given a bunch of "10 dollar" ones. Asked if they had cheaper. They had some "3 dollar" ones. Ilooked at the nymbers to find an easy to remember one - none.. So I took the one on the top. When back home I noticed, that the 8 numbers were the of the 10 numbers of my social security number - in the correct order.. Only my year of birth was missing.. Never activated it - but if I had come one buyer earlier or later, I had ended up with some random number... Straaange.. Should have proposed to her instead that day... :/

Being only eight I didn’t know what had happened. We were in the house alone together,so for the next couple of hours I sat on the floor with her stroking her hair and saying “ ma wake up “ eventually me grannie came home,suddenly I was whisked away still not knowing what happened.
    Since then (14 years ago) me grannie has spent a fortune on these revolting people,she’s trying to make contact with me Ma. The heartbreak she went through and is going through’ just refreshes her pain when she sees psychics and it hasn’t allowed her to mourn properly or to move (if you can from such a thing) on? these charlatans are deeply hurting people and robbing their wallets as they do so!🤬

      It is galling that Joe and the "see using your jap's eye" fella make a living doing what they do. But the reason they get away with it is very, very simple. There is an abundance of gullible people in this world with more money than sense who desperately want to believe in something despite there being absolute evidence that it's a sham. People who visit psychics (except for simple entertainment) really need to see trained counsellors instead. It's more understandable that people with disabilities (like blindness) or health problems cling to any little hope that comes their way.
      I also think it's a bit concerning that the "see through your genitals" guy decided that blind people (including those born with no eyes) can see through their genitals, because it allows his interactions with vulnerable people to focus on their intimate areas. If there was such a grotesque thing as a text book on "How to Sexually Abuse Vulnerable People", I can't help but think this "method" would be in chapter 1.

      I recently a read an interesting book on psychology. I used to believe anyone who resorted to anger after being confronted aren't always guilty. Sometimes they can be angry and insulted about being accused of something they didn't do. I once thought my ex was cheating, confronted her, she went ballistic and was angry. Later found proof she was innocent as her friend had video proof she was at her house instead of at another blokes house.
      Since reading that book and reflecting on that situation I no longer assume people are guilty when they show anger, I just assume they are angry at being accused of something they didn't do. The real way to analyse if they are lying is listening and analysing their body language. Fidgeting, unable to make eye contact, stuttering and giving too much information in their responses.

    I've seen many mediums. Some I've believed cold read, some have picked up a few items and others have been so accurate that it's scary! Two mediums at opposite ends of the spectrum come to mind. One was fishing for information ( that I didn't give her ) and eventually said " I don't think spirit wants to speak with you". I knew she was fake but knew others who hung on to her every word. The other was a lady who told me something only I would know. Not something that anyone, including my family knew. She then said three other things that only I would know. This woman didn't know me and didn't know any of my friends. I never let my facial expressions give me away and sometimes 'smile in recognition ' when something is wrong to see how far the medium would go. This lady who did know things was incredible though.

    We went in one at a time to have a private reading. My sister-in-laws believed in this guy and were really impressed. They came out telling us all he got right.
    My mother-in-law was a sceptic like me. We decided to go in & listen but not give anything away. For me he gave random letters of the alphabet. None of them were a hit. He suggested I share with my parents what he’d said as they’d know who the spirit was. For my mother-in-law, he connected with her dad and lots of messages for her - but her dad was downstairs drinking at the bar.
    We felt it was BS, but the suggestion her dad is dead has now left a question mark over paternity. Even though we don’t believe it, the seed of that idea has been planted. Those that believe this guy is psychic, believe her biological dad is dead, and the man that raised her isn’t her dad.

    I used to think that maybe mediums had some sort of gift. That was until I went to one during a very troubled time in my 30s. It was the most insulting but in hindsight, laughable experience I ever had. My brother died at the age of 24 - I was 22 - and my dad became an alcoholic because he couldn't deal with the grief. I was a very naive 22 year old but had to grow up in an instant to look after my mum who had not only lost her son, but her husband too (through drink). The impact to our lives was shattering and immeasurable. How odd then that the "psychic" didn't mention any of this! Nothing that had shaped my life until then came to her through the spirit world. She talked a load of twaddle about me finding love and she could see me on a yacht in the med (I hate sailing!). Oh yes she also talked about an old man who she thought was probably my grandad who used to rest his bike against the wall of the house. That could have been every single older man for the times we were talking about. It was comically painful because she just kept chucking names at me and in honesty not one of them was anyone I knew. It was actually a helpful (albeit quite costly) experience because it made me realise that it was all rubbish. I now truly hate the way these people prey on vulnerable, and more importantly grieving, people to make money. They are charlatans and should be ashamed.

    The reason Joe Power's first reading went so well is bc he was able research beforehand. A lot of "Psychics" will have their customers complete a card or fill out a form to get the appt and it has a lot of their personal information where he can search their social medias and other info to get the info needed to do these readings. Just big time scammers and it's disgusting...

      I can't be bothered with any big mouth, big personality medium or psychic with a mike in their hand and would never go to see one.
      It seems like a load of nonsense...but...
      you can see it does bring a kind of peace to some who've lost loved ones.
      So it was a big surprise was to find out how several First Ladies have been users of certain unusual "methods" during their husband's career.
      But the biggest surprise of all is when something significant happens to moi !
      And that's when you're finally stunned into realising there's more to this life going on around us than you ever thought possible.

    The "Pam" reading is showing him as a cold reader.
    Uses the bathroom to guage the kind of personal information he throw out.
    Many face creams, shower gels etc.
    Then he says that the person is getting a bit from granny in the spirit world who's saying you're very proud of your appearance, take great care of yourself etc.

    I find this so interesting because I do believe in spiritual abilities. Having listened to Derren Brown, he didn't lie to this clairaudient guy at all, even though he was accused of lying. I don't believe this guy is a real psychic, and he seems unnecessarily defensive. If his abilities were real, he would be confident within those capabilities and he wouldn't be flipping out so easily.

    It's hilarious how defensive he gets when he does a bad reading or Derren states facts, like when he saw the mini. He turns it all around on the person stating facts or accusing him, saying they're the one's disrespecting the dead..
    As for the blind course, that's just someone trying to sell something you want to believe and sometimes imagine happening, but when you realize its absolute rubbish, you get told you don't understand or aren't as superhuman as the creator. Again stringing people along for as long as they can. Then when you pull a box out and tell him to do his magic he's apparently superior to the UK and the most intelligent human on the planet.. i think he genuinely needs psychological help
