good example of how its done and why people say "there is no way he could have known that" or "he told me exactly what my dream was about" There is also the same dynamic going on about seeing "ghosts" Humans like to be interesting and have interesting things to tell people and a story such as "omg this medium told me something amazing" fits the bill for many |

I've seen Derren Brown tell people stuff he couldn't possibly have known and he'll tell you right up front he's not psychic.

you would think that with the popularity of genealogy now all the mediums would be doing that and making a fortune rather than playing run down theatres to an audience of middle aged ladies
I wonder why they dont employ one on "who do you think you are"? |

Some people do have the gift.
But the ones that are genuine don't do it for the money or fame. Well the ones I know don't. |

Too glam to give a damn

Derren Brown actually centred an episode of one his shows on how 'mediums' and 'psychics' are fake. I think he calls it cold-calling, and there are many strategies people like Derek will use; one of them is constantly saying names and letting the audience react when they hear one that sounds just a little like a deceased person they know, like Chuff and a few others have already pointed out. It was a good watch. I love Derren Brown. |

Exactly. I know a medium (she was my mums best friend) and she was pretty spot on. God rest her soul. |

Its the same as a magician you dont know how its done so you think its magic but of course magic does not exist so its just you dont know how its done same with "mediums" you just assign not knowing how its done and or luck to she has a gift but really its only that you dont know how they did it or look at it this way - either everything we have leaned about science through hundreds of years of painstaking research and peer reviewed endeavour is WRONG or your mums pal is a fibber i will have a tenner on the latter |

and of course the reason people lie like this is to make themselves more important which is a basic human driver like having sex. Some people achieve this through work, a talent like singing, collecting things, being a councillor or just plain fabrication

the fact that science is ever learning through meticulous testing of proof and evidence and peer-review is why we have wifi and smartphones |
