I have been seeing many videos lately on telekinesis, pyrokinesis, and cyrokinesis. I for one am a great believer in telekinesis and such. But I wanted to know if any of you guys believed in it also.
Telekinesis - Ability to 'move' things with your mind.
Pyrokinesis - Ability to control fire with mind power.
Cyrokinesis - Same as pyrokinesis but you control water.

You see. What we think of it, no. But in the distant future we will probably say, "Wow! Golly we were dumb with physics back then!" We'll find that our conscience is actually in a paradoxical state of two universes and the fourth dimension..
..you heard nothing... NOTHING YA HEAR!

Not really, but i'm not going to go as far as saying it's impossible.
It's like going faster than light... Theoretically speaking it's impossible, but one would believe that it could be possible. Though, uh, it's a little further off than faster than light travel

True, but what about the people who CAN do it and no one can explain how?

No one can do it, it's just bullcrap.

So, absolutely no one believes that this is a possibility? Besides Kirk.

It could be a possibility, but I just doubt anyone could do it right now.

I'm with Kirk. It might be possible, but I'm highly skeptical.

How would you explain the videos then, I haven't found one single way the guy doing the psiwheel is faking it.

Wow, look harder.
Click "This is a video response to PSIWheel under a glass container."
Click "More" on the description.
And I quote:
Moving on, the trick was very simple. Both videos made use of the same gimmick, a trick table. That being said, however, still none of those things I listed above were used in this trick table. In the first video, a pin sized hole was drilled in both the surface of the table as well as the plastic bowl the set up was sitting on. From there, a person off camera was blowing into a tube that was connected to this hole (under the table) which cause the wheel to spin. The second video used this same principle, but in a more sophisticated fashion. The surface of the table is hollow, with two separate air channels going to two different pin holes. Two tubes could "plug in" to each hole on the hollowed legs, which were hidden by thin layer of laminate that could pop on and off. This is why you can't see the bottoms of the two front legs on the video when the wheel is spinning. And again, I used an "associate" to plug and unplug the tubes as well as to blow into them for a more convincing illusion.
Probably the same method, or a variation of it. It looks like it'd be a bit harder to do with the video you posted, but there's probably a way to do it.

I have an idea, and I'll give you a hint. It's how you cheat at pinball.
More likely what shadowkhas said.

There's always a way to fake something..
It's not like I don't believe it's not possible, I just think that humans aren't capable of doing something like that... It's just too complicated.
