Yes they can. But only if the levitation is very slight and the person being levitated has very good coordination with some other person. They need to be able to get their body together as quickly as possible. Their body mass and balance has to be near perfect. Does an individual need to be an […]
A. Levitation is possible, but impossible in principle. This is because only a limited number of objects, usually a single person, can perform such a movement.

Can it even cause people to “talk backwards”? I am just making this up as I go along. No more: This is not a debate I am interested in. I will keep the “backwards, only” part out and refer the commenter to another page with information on the topic. It sounds like an area where […]

It is about manipulating people in your life using your inner power.” According to the report, the research firm has a team of scientists, researchers, and […]
What are the four elements of magic? How is magic different from science? If it were to fall to you, what would you call yourself? Who invented the “Hobbit” myth? For a full transcript, take a look at our full episode archive on the topic. A recent study shows that the relationship between the human […]
To be fair, the answer to this one is not entirely clear. However, while it seems a little suspicious that so many researchers would think that an intelligence experiment could even be done in “real” life, there are a few reasons to think so.
