00:00:27,410 --> 00:00:25,520
hello this is Richard Saunders from the

2
00:00:29,870 --> 00:00:27,420
skeptic zone podcast with my iPhone

3
00:00:32,030 --> 00:00:29,880
smartphone cell phone whatever you want

4
00:00:34,430 --> 00:00:32,040
to call it I'm going to slip on this

5
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:34,440
blindfold now and get my friend Gary to

6
00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:37,170
hold the phone near his heart or not as

7
00:00:41,030 --> 00:00:39,120
you'll see and I'm gonna test his

8
00:00:43,250 --> 00:00:41,040
strength so there we are

9
00:00:46,549 --> 00:00:43,260
can't see a thing I asked Gary to hold

10
00:00:48,799 --> 00:00:46,559
out his arm toss the coin if it comes up

11
00:00:51,439 --> 00:00:48,809
heads he has to hold the phone tails

12
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:51,449
he puts the phone down heads it is I

13
00:00:58,520 --> 00:00:53,370
don't know that I'm blindfolded

14
00:01:00,259 --> 00:00:58,530
and I test his strength good resistance

15
00:01:02,750 --> 00:01:00,269
they're holding the phone near his heart

16
00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:02,760
he tosses the coin again so it's random

17
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:05,760
there's time its tail's no phone I don't

18
00:01:12,050 --> 00:01:08,010
know that and I test his strength again

19
00:01:14,539 --> 00:01:12,060
and he has about the same amount of

20
00:01:19,180 --> 00:01:14,549
resistance that's tried again repeat

21
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:19,190
that test no phone good resistance there

22
00:01:23,570 --> 00:01:21,510
it's important we keep repeating this

23
00:01:25,819 --> 00:01:23,580
test pluses the coin waters have heads

24
00:01:28,940 --> 00:01:25,829
this time okay he's holding the phone

25
00:01:32,810 --> 00:01:28,950
near his heart I'm gonna push down and

26
00:01:34,490 --> 00:01:32,820
these are resisting just the same but

27
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:34,500
let's keep going it's important as I

28
00:01:41,419 --> 00:01:37,130
said to keep doing this test many times

29
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:41,429
he had a heart and pushing down good

30
00:01:46,010 --> 00:01:44,490
resistance I can't tell from his

31
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:46,020
strength whether he has the phone or not

32
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:48,450
I'm sure those ladies were quite amused

33
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:50,850
and the dog let's try it one more time

34
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:01,960
one last go puts the phone down pushing

35
00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:06,170
down good resistance seems to me that
