Uri Geller Caught Cheating Live on Air!!

[DJM]

On the Geller show in Israel, he did a trick where he moved a huge magnet. At first he managed to move it a little, but after a minute or so you could see him very clearly putting a fake thumb, so that he could move the magnet even better.

The video can be seen over here. It's the first clip on the list, he puts the fake tumb abour 4:00 minutes into it. I hope it's going to work for you.

Just amazing how he thought no one would notice it! :rolleyes:

By the way, isn't the blonde girl very hot?

[jimtron]

Hmm, can't get the video to play.

It also does not seem to want to work

Sniff. Sniff. It's so sad to see him reduced to cheating. He has lost those amazing abilities he had when he was younger.

It's almost like he has been demagnitized. Evil sketpical Randiest debunkers have done this to him. Let him live on in his past glory as a bender of spoons and keys.

"UFO's are the secret source of my powers". Have they too deserted him?

:eye-poppi :) :D ;) :p :confused: :mad: :rolleyes: :boggled: :eye-poppi :jaw-dropp

[BillC]

I just watched it without a problem.
He's certainly fiddling with his hands around that time. Maybe it's a fake thumb with a magnet inside. I guess there's also ample opportunity for him to simply palm a small magnet as well.

It's a rather lame conjuring trick all in all.

[DJM]

Yeah, it was pretty lame. And it's without a doubt fake thumb, you can even see it for a few seconds after he puts it on. There were a lot others around here that noticed the same thing, as it was very obvious. I'm just amazed that he did that right infront of the camera! Does he really think that eveyone is stupid and won't notice it? :rolleyes:

And sorry if the video doesn't work for some people. I'll let you know if I find a different source to view it.

[joesixpack]

You don't even need a magnet to deflect the compass card in a binnical. Any piece of iron will do.

I'm surprised that anyone is even impressed by something so simple as moving a compas. A magician would be laughed off the stage with a trick like that. I guess when you suck as a legitimate magician, you have to resort to lying. Telling people that you're psychic lowers their expectations quite a bit, apparently.

I was thinking the same thing earlier whilst watching an amazing Chinese guy changing masks with such incredibly fast sleight of hand (on one of Penn and Teller's programmes). Even an average illusionist or mentalist blows the best "psychic" out of the water. Scum like Geller, Edward and Browne make up for their lack of talent by sitting at the top of a human pyramid of belief and credulity; their objective successes and failures matter little to the hardcore fans. PR and marketing are also far more important than performance.

Yes, but the problem is that there are still some people that still believe him, even though thankfuly all the media in Israel is trying to debunk him once in awhile. There was even a big artice in the most popular paper here that explained all his tricks, including those he did on the show. And guess who they interviewed to explain it all. That's right, Mr. Randi! ;)

By the way, Robin Gibb from the Bee Gees is going to be a guest next week on the show. I saw an interview with him where he says that he believes Geller is real, so it only goes to show that also intelligent people can fall for that stuff.

[The Mad Hatter]

But where did the fake thumb come from?!

[fuelair]

But where did the fake thumb come from?!

You don't want to know - but its' the same place his brains are.:jaw-dropp

[DJM]

I think he was taking it from behind his ear, he did a strange move with his hand around that area a few seconds before he puts on the thumb.

In this clip, Uri 'The Spoon' Geller, pulls a young lad up onto the stage to bend a spoon. Geller already has a spoon in his hand, and when the young lad comes up carrying his own, Geller snatches it out of the kid's hands and throws it down on the ground. Unbelievable.

[Questioninggeller]

Didn't play for me.

[geni]

Just amazing how he thought no one would notice it! :rolleyes:

Consider these two statements. I think we have an answer.

[geni]

by an chance are those haveing trouble useing firefox?

[DJM]

Consider these two statements. I think we have an answer.

Well in that case I think the distraction worked out pretty well, because I only noticed the thumb thing the second time I watched the video. He should start bringing that girl to all his shows. :p

[Ladewig]

Didn't play for me.

Me neither. Any other sources?

[DJM]

Sorry, not that I know of. Is there some program that can capture streaming videos? I could put it on youtube or something if it's possible.

[jimtron]

Yes, Firefox on OS X.

[Mr. Stick]

What makes you think he's intelligent? ;)
You're right of course. I think Randi often stresses the difference between being intelligent and being smart.

[ohp]

using IE7, I can view other videos on the site, but not that one.

Is the video listed on any of the tabs? Then we might be able to navigate to it.

[ohp]

OK, got it now. It's the rightmost tab, top video of the three, the one with the red and green balls in.

The Relevant time period is from 4 minutes into the clip.

I suspect that if you are a Geller believer, then you'd not be looking out for that kind of action.

[phyz]

I can't get the OP video, either. OS X - Safari.

[DJM]

It's horrible what's going on here. Most of the participants are known as magicians that belong to the Magic Organization, but they are breaking the ethical thing of hinting they have powers. The thing is that don't say it openly all the time, but because it's a show about Geller and becoming his heir, then people naturally think that's how they describe themselves.

So all the papers once in awhile explain that it's all "fake", there was even a big article in the paper today that the guest stars that appear on the show write down stuff before, so now everyone thinks it's all a setup. Some people in the organization are against their friends that appear on the show, and one of them even quit the organization because the people that run it don't do anything to stop the ethical ussue.

What a big mess only because of Geller. Why couldn't he just stay in the UK and continue to put spoons on his car?! :confused:

BTW, I heard that he's maybe going to do the show also in other countries, so everyone should be worried about it.

[Big Les]

Firefox doesn't work, but IE6 does.

[ohp]

IE7 works too, but you have to click on the video link to start the player.


The UI on that video player really sucks though.

[DJM]

Yeah, you need to click on the top photo on the list and hopefully it would work.

And I just noticed I wrote he was moving a magnet in my original post, I meant a compass of course. :blush:

If you listen to what he says as he throws it away, he says "thin spoons are better." He didn't even examine the kid's spoon, he just grabbed it and tossed it.

[Rrose Selavy]

IE7 works too, but you have to click on the video link to start the player.

It is sort of "playing " for me in IE6 now but unwatchable as it stops and starts every half second and the soundtrack is speeded up - weird

Maybe Geller put a hex on it........?

Good news, now everyone can view it at youtube!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDHSCKxYXDY


It's around 50 seconds into the clip. The fake thumb can be clearly seen for a few seconds after he puts it on.

Be quick before the Geller lawyers ask the site to remove the video! ;)

[ohp]

many years ago on UK tv, geller was set up on one of these celebrity candid camera type slots on a saturday night show (A Noel Edmunds one I think) He wasn't aware of the cameras. I'm pretty sure that this is a clip from that show.

Wow. It is SO obvious, it's not even good sleight of hand. I think that I could have done a better job of putting on the fake thumb and I can't even spell majic!

Rrose, what these photos prove beyond a doubt is what I stated at the beginning of this thread, the burnette is much hotter than the blond.

Also, it shows the whole thumb thing, too. Thanks.

This is one of the reasons that Youtube got so huge so fast. You don't have to devote hours of research to determine which version of which browser on which platform with which plugins is needed to watch a video. You just click on play.

[DJM]

Well, Url Geller has now been officially debunked! This video has been posted on a few major news websites in Israel and also some other boards. They even showed it on a news show on TV, and explained how it all works.

Here's Geller official reply about it, not making this up:

"If I put a magnet on my finger, it's even more phenomenal than moving a compass."

It's probably just a sarcastic remark, but it seems like he doesn't try to deny it much. Finally something good turned out from this show! ;)

[jimtron]

"If I put a magnet on my finger, it's even more phenomenal than moving a compass."

WTF?

[DJM]

I think I made a little mistake with the translation. It should be this:

"If I did manage to put a magnet on my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."

Not sure if it makes more sense, but it's the direct quote.

[jimtron]

"If I did manage to put a magnet on my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."

Let's see, science put robots on Mars that are beaming 3D pictures back to Earth. Uri Geller, perhaps the most famous living paranormalist, can "put a magnet on his finger" (in a way that would embarrass any self-respecting magician). When will people WAKE UP?

[RSLancastr]

I think I made a little mistake with the translation. It should be this:

"If I did manage to put a magnet on my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."

Not sure if it makes more sense, but it's the direct quote.Perhaps it translates to "If I did manage to put a magnet IN my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."

[jimtron]

Perhaps it translates to "If I did manage to put a magnet IN my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."
A pretty big if, as no one accused of putting a magnet in his finger, and that wouldn't be necessary to accomplish the magic trick.

[Humphreys]

Perhaps it translates to "If I did manage to put a magnet IN my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."

"If I did manage to finger a compass, it's more phenomenal than moving a magnet".

[DJM]

Perhaps it translates to "If I did manage to put a magnet IN my finger, it's more phenomenal than moving a compass."

He definitely said on his finger, at least according to a major news site over here. He was probably just trying to be sarcastic as usual.

[joesixpack]

DJM, who is that bearded fellow in the beginning of the clip who comes out and seems to be talking about the compass, then walks off stage? What was he saying?

[Ossai]

[DJM]

DJM, who is that bearded fellow in the beginning of the clip who comes out and seems to be talking about the compass, then walks off stage? What was he saying?

He's the manager of some institution in the country. He said it's a very special sea compass made in Japan and one of the most useful ones that they have, and it's very hard to affect it. It's usally used for big boats and was made to always point north. They kept saying how it's almost impossible to move it.

Unless you have a magnet on your finger, of course. ;)

On the news show yesterday they showed something very similar to do that, only of course with the fake thumb incident. They showed the scene about 5 times in a row and put a huge red circle around his hand to make it more obvious.

It was just breathtaking! :)

That's what I thought it was about. Did he mention how sensitive it was to magnetic fields? Or how a peice of iron brought close to it would cause it to deflect? I'm guessing not.

Before gyrocompasses were common on ships, the sailor at the helm would have to empty his pockets and leave his knife in the chartroom before his watch began for that very reason.

[DJM]

And yet, people will still believe that Uri Geller doesn't cheat.

[tsg]

And yet, people will still believe that Uri Geller doesn't cheat.

More specifically, they will believe that just because he got caught cheating this time doesn't mean his powers aren't real.

While technically correct, completely ignores why he needed to cheat in the first place.

[tsg]

Scientists today have discovered that telekinetic powers, a la Uri Geller, are in fact real. However, they state that the only use for them is bending spoons and moving compasses a couple of degrees off north from close range. "You're better off doing it the 'non-magical' way", a spokesman said. "It's a good party trick, nothing more. Like that bit where the guy hammers the nail into his nose. If you're trying to impress the blonde you just met it might be useful. From a practical standpoint, if you need a bent spoon, you're better off bending it by hand."

Their next project, sources say, is the investigation of the apparent ability of clairvoyants to make vague predictions which turn out to be correct at a rate roughly equal to what chance would allow. "Whatever their supernatural sources are, they appear to be no more informed than a wild guess."

[jimtron]

If you enjoy repeatedly slamming your head against your desk (and really, who doesn't?), behold the splendor of this thread (http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=192463&forum=15&293). I used to be a prolific poster at that forum, until I just couldn't take it any more (I mistakenly assumed that magicians would not fall for Geller and his ilk). There are a bunch of mentalists (magicians) there who defend Geller and call Randi the fraud. Even after the recent Geller debacle on TV.

The topic of Randi and the challenge and Geller comes up fairly often there, and Geller is usually defended and Randi taken to task for "exposing" magicians and the challenge being bogus. The linked thread was started by a skeptic, but most of the participants are not so skeptical.

Well, they showed the video again on the same news program, only this time they put it in slow motion a few times. They also got some explanations from a magician who said it was obviously a trick, though he didn't want to expose the actual gimick Geller was using. Very funny stuff!

[DJM]

Yeah, it was already published a few weeks ago that Geller had met the captain awhile before the show. I don't think he even tried to deny it.

I saw it on the Rafi Reshef show on channel 10. It's the second time they showed the video there.

[DJM]

This is what someone close to the production of the show told a major news site:

"Geller's exposure was very traumatic for him. He's trying to make it seem like everything is alright, but he knows there's a major problem with the public's trust in him."

There's no comment from Geller himself.


The network asked Youtube to remove the video, but you can find a new clip here which shows exactly the seconds that matter:

The http://www.keshet-tv.com/geller/lobbyvideo.aspx link has the compass video shows Geller performing the trick with three females.

This video with two females and one male,

http://www.keshet-tv.com/geller/lobbyvideo.aspx?MediaID=11531&CatID=1957&Level3=1969

shows Geller (at the 4:04 mark) look down and slip the fake thumb on. As he waves his arms it looks like he has something on that hand.

[a_unique_person]

He's just getting old and lazy.

[Rrose Selavy]

It's on the BBC site now - nice quote from Geller:
"I am not a magician and have never been one," Geller said. "I keep my powers mysterious."



Geller said the controversy had only served to boost his show.
"The cynics and magicians who have come out against me have done a great job worth millions," he said. "It has made Uri Geller more mysterious and has created a mystical aura around me."


http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6285005.stm

[a_unique_person]

Priceless


"I am not a magician and have never been one," Geller said.

"I am not a magician and have never been one," Geller said.

That is demonstrably an outright lie, is it not?

[tsg]

Not really. Magicians have enough skill and talent to keep you watching even when you know it's a trick.

[The_Fire]

Not to mention the fact that magicians would probably be insulted by being put in the same "box" as Geller......

[DJM]

"Geller said the controversy had only served to boost his show."

That's just another one of his lies, as the ratings of the show have been getting lower and lower as time goes on. No one here in Israel believes anything he says anymore and all just make fun of him most of the time. The show is now only number 5 on the list in the ratings, while it used to be at the top in the first 2-3 weeks. So it looks like people are getting really tired of Mr. Geller's nonsense.. Thank God next week will be the last episode.

[Azrael 5]

I've been defending Randi there a few times, so it's not all bad there. :)

And me! :D

Ah,the linked topic has been deleted on Magic Cafe.I asume it was the one about Uri cheating.Admin are very twitchy about upsetting Gellar for some reason.

[Spins]

I remember back in the mid 90's Uri Geller appeared on a program called "Noel's House Party" (UK) in which he was the victim off a hidden camera stunt in a restaurant. Obviously Uri didn't know he was being filmed so the person who was dining with him asked him to bend a spoon, which he did, and you could see him bending the spoon in order to weaken it at the neck when he thought nobody was looking, classic!

[Questioninggeller]

It is a lie. He was a club magician in Israel way back when.

I watched this show live as it happened. When the cameras cut back to the studio after the hidden camera sequence (which geller got very suspicious about during the restaurant scene), Noel Edmunds started to be all 'amazed' at how Geller had 'proved' that he could do what he said he could, and that it was remarkable and astounding how Uri could 'sense' that he was on a hidden camera show.

Edmunds is known for his wooism now where he has mystical symbols written on his hands where he presents the world's most inane game show - 'Deal Or No Deal'

Youtube has since taken the Uri Gellar video down and I can't seem to find it anymore. I heard Randi say on the NESS podcast that he had distributed a ton of copies of it, and I was wondering if anyone had one? I'm dying to see it.

[Pyrrho]

A magician bends spoons by means of otherworldly powers.

An illusionist bends spoons by means of trickery.

So, yes, Uri Geller is right: he has never been a "magician".

[CFLarsen]

No, he is wrong. He started out as a magician in Israeli night clubs. He has lied so long that lying has become second nature to him.

[DJM]

Last week he said in an interview that he never claimed that he had healing powers, but I saw a proof that he did claim that, at least one time. So yes, he lies all the time. But he's a millionaire, so what he cares.

[arthurchappell]

I would think that If I had the level of psychic power Geller claims so unconvincingly to have that I would find a better use for it that breaking peoples cutlery as a parlour trick - generally speaking it is easier to eat your dinner with a fork that isn't buckled. The useof a magnet to deflect a compass needle is one i think everyone picks up on even in infant school. I certainly did. Good to see the fool exposed though i expect it isn't loudly enough to stop him carrying on his act for some years to come yet unless he does something really stupid.
