00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:43,440
Out there, there are 20 million light years of space, and that's just what we know about

6
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:48,360
so far. In fact, what we don't know makes all the knowledge mankind has accumulated

7
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,920
over the centuries and up to very little. Perhaps there'll always be more mysteries

8
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:58,000
than answers, but then we all love a mystery. We have two more stories for you tonight.

9
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,560
Stories of ordinary people, but what they describe is anything but ordinary. The evidence

10
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,480
is compelling, but is it convincing? The woman in one of our stories tried to convince a

11
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:15,200
jury when she took her psychic powers to court. We'll bring you their verdict later.

12
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,720
First though, we've launched satellites and space stations hundreds of thousands of miles

13
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:25,420
into orbit. Space probes have got more than 500 million miles away. Now if we've got

14
00:01:25,420 --> 00:01:32,700
all that, some ask what might another civilization have? Figures show that a UFO, an unidentified

15
00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:38,700
flying object, is spotted by someone somewhere in this world every three minutes. Certain

16
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:43,100
areas report many more sightings than others. There have been concentrations of sightings

17
00:01:43,100 --> 00:01:48,660
from the Australian bush to the Brazilian rainforest. But in the past few years, nowhere

18
00:01:48,660 --> 00:01:58,060
has had more UFO reports than a certain part of Scotland. In the skies around the town

19
00:01:58,060 --> 00:02:06,020
of Falkirk over the last couple of years, around 800 UFOs have been sighted. It's a

20
00:02:06,020 --> 00:02:10,940
phenomenon which has reached such proportions that anxious locals have called a public meeting.

21
00:02:10,940 --> 00:02:14,580
They want to know the truth. What's behind the sudden upsurge?

22
00:02:14,580 --> 00:02:21,260
There was a cloud in the sky, particularly low down, and a large revolver of lights.

23
00:02:21,260 --> 00:02:26,820
Tending to sort of flare up and then dull down again, as if a light was turning towards

24
00:02:26,820 --> 00:02:32,100
me and then turning away again. Suddenly it started to move away, not very quickly, and

25
00:02:32,100 --> 00:02:36,180
then suddenly collapsed in on itself and disappeared.

26
00:02:36,180 --> 00:02:41,740
The fact remains however that UFOs are real. Of that, there is no question, but it is what

27
00:02:41,740 --> 00:02:49,340
they are or represent that is the question. Hundreds of people have phoned me regarding

28
00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:53,580
strange sightings in the sky. I know these people personally. I mean, they're not going

29
00:02:53,580 --> 00:02:58,020
to make stories out like this. I mean, they've actually faced a lot of ridicule and they've

30
00:02:58,020 --> 00:03:01,980
showed a lot of great courage coming forward and stating that they've seen something which

31
00:03:01,980 --> 00:03:06,020
nobody can define and nobody can give an answer for.

32
00:03:06,020 --> 00:03:11,500
Most sightings have been close by Falkirk in Bonne breach. Once occupied by Romans, later

33
00:03:11,540 --> 00:03:16,620
known for its iron fanderies, Bonne breach now has a bizarre new claim to fame. It's

34
00:03:16,620 --> 00:03:23,020
been blitzed by UFOs.

35
00:03:23,020 --> 00:03:28,460
Ray and Cathy Prosek were driving along the motorway nearby. As they approached a viaduct

36
00:03:28,460 --> 00:03:34,340
spanning the road, they say they saw an object the size of a jumbo jet hovering above it.

37
00:03:34,340 --> 00:03:40,140
I could see it was triangular in shape. There was a light at each corner. We passed underneath

38
00:03:40,140 --> 00:03:47,700
the viaduct and looking back, there sitting on the other side was another craft and it

39
00:03:47,700 --> 00:03:51,060
looked like a mirror image the way they were pointing towards each other.

40
00:03:51,060 --> 00:03:57,260
It didn't look like anything I'd ever seen before. So of course, you automatically think,

41
00:03:57,260 --> 00:03:58,980
you know, UFO.

42
00:03:59,100 --> 00:04:04,100
Moving home to neighbouring Lovett, Neil Malcolm says he was followed by a ball of light.

43
00:04:04,100 --> 00:04:10,500
I've got the fright in my life really. I knew it wasn't anybody's headlights or anything

44
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:14,420
because it just lit up the full interior of the car.

45
00:04:14,420 --> 00:04:18,900
He rushed in to tell the rest of the family. As they went to look, Neil's wife Lorraine

46
00:04:18,900 --> 00:04:20,340
grabbed her video camera.

47
00:04:20,340 --> 00:04:27,340
When I zoomed in, I wasn't sure what I could see. When you know what a helicopter in my

48
00:04:27,500 --> 00:04:31,340
plane looked like, it definitely wasn't anything like that.

49
00:04:31,340 --> 00:04:37,940
And I had to stop because it disappeared behind the building.

50
00:04:37,940 --> 00:04:43,340
Studies of the video have been unable to explain what it shows. Even experts like Malcolm Robinson,

51
00:04:43,340 --> 00:04:48,980
who's analysed reports of UFOs for 25 years, are baffled by the wave of sightings.

52
00:04:48,980 --> 00:04:52,900
We check with the airports. We also check with the local police. And then you also check

53
00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:58,700
with meteorological stations to see any flights of weather balloons, etc.

54
00:04:58,700 --> 00:05:03,020
Some reports are misidentifications, obviously, of aircraft and the like. But this leaves

55
00:05:03,020 --> 00:05:08,900
us with a small residue, which is highly unusual and which demand investigation.

56
00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:13,420
But the most puzzling UFO case in the area must be the one which happened in these woods

57
00:05:13,420 --> 00:05:18,540
near Livingston. It's a case that the police came to treat officially as assault by person

58
00:05:18,540 --> 00:05:24,180
or person's unknown. It happened to a forestry worker, Bob Taylor, who was out on patrol

59
00:05:24,180 --> 00:05:28,980
checking for stray sheep in the forest. It was a routine task, one he'd done countless

60
00:05:28,980 --> 00:05:33,580
times over the years he'd worked there. As usual, there were no sheep, but as he rounded

61
00:05:33,580 --> 00:05:40,580
a corner, he discovered something else.

62
00:05:40,580 --> 00:05:43,580
What the?

63
00:05:43,620 --> 00:05:50,620
It's a huge thing with a big round dome, a very dark grey colour. It had a big flange

64
00:05:56,380 --> 00:06:03,380
going all the way around. I could see arms sticking out of this flange with what I took

65
00:06:03,980 --> 00:06:10,980
to be blades on the top. Two balls came out, two balls out. I think they'd be about three

66
00:06:11,140 --> 00:06:18,140
feet in diameter, with about six bites. They came right up beside me. I remember feeling

67
00:06:18,900 --> 00:06:24,220
a tug at that time.

68
00:06:24,220 --> 00:06:28,900
Bob Taylor can't remember exactly what followed. The next thing he does remember is lying on

69
00:06:28,900 --> 00:06:35,900
the ground, dazed and bleeding. Unable to walk and in no condition to drive, he set off

70
00:06:35,900 --> 00:06:42,900
for help on his hands and knees. By the time he arrived home, he was in a state of near

71
00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:44,900
total collapse.

72
00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:51,900
Bob, what happened to you? I need my drink. I'll get you a right one. He looked quite

73
00:06:58,900 --> 00:07:04,900
short and he was drained. He was right wide and his face was dirty. What's at the lorry?

74
00:07:04,900 --> 00:07:11,900
Did you have a clash? He was attacked. He said, I've been attacked. I said, what with

75
00:07:12,340 --> 00:07:18,820
and he said, a spaceship. I said, oh goodness me, there's no such a thing as a spaceship.

76
00:07:18,820 --> 00:07:23,900
I'm going to phone the doctor. You must have fell and hurt your head.

77
00:07:23,900 --> 00:07:29,060
Bob's wife called his boss, Malcolm Drummond. He went to the forest and he found Bob's abandoned

78
00:07:29,060 --> 00:07:34,500
truck and that wasn't all. In the clearing, he found impressions had been made in the

79
00:07:34,500 --> 00:07:41,500
ground. There is no doubt in my mind that these marks were made by a petrically solid, heavier

80
00:07:43,540 --> 00:07:50,540
than air object. They had been made by some machine which had come vertically downwards.

81
00:07:52,660 --> 00:07:57,500
The area was fenced off and police began an intensive search. They found nothing. It was

82
00:07:57,500 --> 00:08:02,900
one of the most puzzling cases Detective Inspector Ian Walk has ever come across. I couldn't believe

83
00:08:02,900 --> 00:08:08,860
it at first. The ground was soft and there were no signs of the tracks having come from

84
00:08:08,860 --> 00:08:14,100
somewhere or having went anywhere. They just seemed to have arrived. Near the caterpillar

85
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:20,100
type tracks were holes in the ground, three inches deep, 40 holes in all. At first I thought

86
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:26,260
they were possible to be made by equipment that were used by the forestry commission

87
00:08:26,340 --> 00:08:32,340
but we went to the earth premises, waited that day, examined all the vehicles and nothing

88
00:08:32,340 --> 00:08:38,300
at all worked. So what else could have caused the marks? One theory begins with the laying

89
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:43,620
of water pipes in the forest and goes on to explain what Bob Taylor saw, a theory developed

90
00:08:43,620 --> 00:08:48,380
by science writer Stuart Campbell. He thought he saw a spacecraft, because that was the

91
00:08:48,380 --> 00:08:53,780
only logical explanation to him, sitting in a clearing but it was a magnified image in

92
00:08:53,820 --> 00:09:00,900
my opinion of a planet millions of miles away. But what about Bob's injuries? The theory

93
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:06,460
continues that the site of the mirage triggered an epileptic fit. It caused him to be paralyzed,

94
00:09:06,460 --> 00:09:12,700
he couldn't speak and of course he was unable to walk. These are symptoms of that. But Bob

95
00:09:12,700 --> 00:09:17,900
hadn't suffered from epilepsy before and those who know him have no reason to doubt him. Bob

96
00:09:17,940 --> 00:09:23,420
Taylor was straightforward, a forester who had worked here for many years, he had no

97
00:09:23,420 --> 00:09:30,420
illusions of any kind and he's not the sort of chap who would have invented a story like this.

98
00:09:31,820 --> 00:09:36,140
Then there were the rips in the trousers Bob Taylor was wearing. Rips he claims were made

99
00:09:36,140 --> 00:09:42,460
by probes from the UFO. The trousers were sent to the police laboratories to be put

100
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:48,860
under the scrutiny of forensic expert Leicester Nip. There was two sets of damage predominantly,

101
00:09:48,860 --> 00:09:56,340
close enough to be considered symmetrical. It's obviously been caused by a lifting action.

102
00:09:56,340 --> 00:10:03,100
It's not the sort of action that's caused by a fall, the tear would normally be down the trousers.

103
00:10:03,100 --> 00:10:09,100
Certainly the story could fit the bill, that some object or objects had moved across a clearing

104
00:10:09,100 --> 00:10:16,020
towards him, attempted to lift him up and carry him off. Even to this day we're completely

105
00:10:16,020 --> 00:10:25,380
baffled of one who assaulted Mr Taylor and two what made these marks on the ground. This is only

106
00:10:25,380 --> 00:10:30,700
one of the many local UFO cases which remain unsolved. Some witnesses say they're left with

107
00:10:30,700 --> 00:10:35,140
profound after effects, desperate to find a way of coming to terms with seeing something that

108
00:10:35,180 --> 00:10:40,980
defies belief. One of the most recent cases has left two local men with an obsession to find

109
00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:44,980
out what it was they encountered on a lonely stretch of road through the Pentland Hills.

110
00:10:44,980 --> 00:10:54,700
We come back here quite often looking at our camera and I'm just interested to find out to see

111
00:10:54,700 --> 00:11:01,020
if we can maybe see this again. The craft was bigger than the road. Me and Colin reckon that

112
00:11:01,060 --> 00:11:07,620
the craft was about 30 foot wide. We're both very frightened. It has sort of affected my life

113
00:11:07,620 --> 00:11:14,100
seeing something like this. I've never seen nothing ever like it before. Since I've suffered from bad

114
00:11:14,100 --> 00:11:20,940
depression, which I never used to do, it's just always on my mind. I just want to know what happened

115
00:11:20,940 --> 00:11:27,980
that night. I didn't really believe in it, UFOs, but this experience has sort of changed my mind.

116
00:11:31,980 --> 00:11:36,420
The Scottish UFOs are affecting local people in another way. They're becoming a tourist

117
00:11:36,420 --> 00:11:41,380
attraction. A plaque has been put up where Bob Taylor claimed his close encounter in the forest,

118
00:11:41,380 --> 00:11:44,620
bringing visitors from near and possibly very far.

119
00:11:52,620 --> 00:11:58,020
Medicine has learned many ways to deal with human pain. Consciousness can be wiped out in an instant

120
00:11:58,020 --> 00:12:03,820
by powerful anesthetics. For centuries, Chinese acupuncturists have inserted tiny needles into

121
00:12:03,820 --> 00:12:10,020
their patient's skin. Nobody knows how a needle in the ear can prevent back pain, but many western

122
00:12:10,020 --> 00:12:16,260
doctors have come to accept that it can. And hypnosis can be used to paralyze the nerves which carry

123
00:12:16,260 --> 00:12:22,860
pain signals. Without painkillers, most modern surgery will be unthinkable. So imagine the

124
00:12:22,860 --> 00:12:27,980
reaction of an American doctor whose patient said she wanted him to operate without anything to

125
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:28,980
stop the pain.

126
00:12:32,980 --> 00:12:33,980
I'm fine.

127
00:12:34,980 --> 00:12:40,980
In almost 35 years as a physician, I have never seen it like that before. She said she didn't need anesthesia.

128
00:12:40,980 --> 00:12:41,980
It just...

129
00:12:41,980 --> 00:12:42,980
I'm sure you want to go through with this.

130
00:12:42,980 --> 00:12:43,980
I'm thought of.

131
00:12:43,980 --> 00:12:44,980
I'm blocked out of the pain.

132
00:12:46,980 --> 00:12:55,980
At about age seven, I discovered that I was psychic. As I grew older, my abilities grew not only stronger,

133
00:12:55,980 --> 00:13:04,980
but as I grew, they grew. About 10 years ago, I discovered that I was able to be pain and medication free,

134
00:13:04,980 --> 00:13:11,980
never taking any kind of pain pill for anything. I didn't have any pain. I didn't have any swelling.

135
00:13:11,980 --> 00:13:19,980
I didn't have any bleeding. Plus, the ability that I had helped me to heal faster than the average person.

136
00:13:20,980 --> 00:13:28,980
Penny Pelito calls it her pipeline. Doctors in Florida where she lives were skeptical to say the least about her claims,

137
00:13:28,980 --> 00:13:34,980
but she was so convincing that they agreed to operate to remove a cyst from her arm, with anesthetic standing by.

138
00:13:37,980 --> 00:13:45,980
When I put the knife on her skin, I thought that she would rebel and possibly scream a bit, because it was going to be painful.

139
00:13:45,980 --> 00:13:47,980
And she didn't.

140
00:13:47,980 --> 00:13:53,980
The few minutes that it took was enough for him to have his shirt ringing wet, because he was a nervous wreck.

141
00:13:53,980 --> 00:13:59,980
Why? He said, Penny, it's logical. Nobody can have surgery without anesthetic.

142
00:14:04,980 --> 00:14:11,980
The anesthetic standing by was never used. To the doctor's amazement, Penny didn't feel a thing.

143
00:14:11,980 --> 00:14:17,980
And she went on to have six more operations, operations potentially even more painful.

144
00:14:18,980 --> 00:14:26,980
You have three significant sized cysts all located in a very, very sensitive part of the breast.

145
00:14:26,980 --> 00:14:32,980
I can't see any reason in the world why anyone in their right mind would want to do this surgery without anesthesia.

146
00:14:32,980 --> 00:14:35,980
I can do it. I can. I've done it before.

147
00:14:35,980 --> 00:14:39,980
I've seen many phenomenal things. Nothing compares to this.

148
00:14:39,980 --> 00:14:42,980
I imagine the pain will be described as excruciating.

149
00:14:43,980 --> 00:14:47,980
In another operation, Penny had to have a toe amputated.

150
00:14:47,980 --> 00:14:55,980
I didn't sleep for a week before we did this, because I didn't believe it could be done, and I was very nervous.

151
00:14:56,980 --> 00:15:00,980
But in spite of Dr. Willins' fears, Penny still refused anesthetic.

152
00:15:01,980 --> 00:15:03,980
I asked her, did she feel pain? She always told me no.

153
00:15:03,980 --> 00:15:04,980
I feel nothing.

154
00:15:04,980 --> 00:15:10,980
We cut the skin, we cut deeper into the tissue, and we cut the bone and removed it.

155
00:15:12,980 --> 00:15:17,980
After I got the bone out, she says, I want to see what other people feel like.

156
00:15:17,980 --> 00:15:19,980
She says, I'm going to pipe out for a minute.

157
00:15:19,980 --> 00:15:21,980
And she says, oh my god, that's terrible.

158
00:15:22,980 --> 00:15:27,980
So could Penny Palito really have been using psychic power to block her pain?

159
00:15:28,980 --> 00:15:31,980
A leading psychiatrist who examined her thinks not.

160
00:15:32,980 --> 00:15:39,980
When I examined her, I discovered very quickly that this lady was very gifted, and she was using self-hypnosis.

161
00:15:40,980 --> 00:15:47,980
She would go into a trance or hypnotic state quickly and spontaneously, and as a result, turned off sensation to that part of her body.

162
00:15:48,980 --> 00:15:50,980
But those who've operated on her disagree.

163
00:15:51,980 --> 00:15:56,980
Most people in a hypnotic state are quieter. They lay back, and they don't ask too many questions.

164
00:15:56,980 --> 00:16:04,980
But she was lively, she was wide awake, she was trying to sit up. She was joking with the staff, she was joking with me, she was telling stories.

165
00:16:05,980 --> 00:16:09,980
If not hypnosis, could she have taken something?

166
00:16:10,980 --> 00:16:14,980
She showed absolutely no signs of clinical use of any kind of drug.

167
00:16:15,980 --> 00:16:18,980
Or could she have a medical condition which made her unable to feel pain?

168
00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:23,980
I don't know of any medical condition that blocks out pain.

169
00:16:23,980 --> 00:16:29,980
And it's my understanding that she has the ability to block it out, and if she didn't do that, she'd feel pain.

170
00:16:30,980 --> 00:16:37,980
Penny Palito claims to have other psychic powers too. To thank Dr. Willins for agreeing to operate, she decided to make him a gift.

171
00:16:38,980 --> 00:16:43,980
I told him that I would make him a winner at Las Vegas at the gaming tables.

172
00:16:44,980 --> 00:16:48,980
And I would share the knowledge that I had with him telepathically.

173
00:16:48,980 --> 00:16:49,980
An ace.

174
00:16:50,980 --> 00:16:54,980
It's like the bets were placed for me, and whatever I did was absolutely correct.

175
00:16:55,980 --> 00:17:00,980
If I needed an eight, the next card was an eight. It was like magic.

176
00:17:01,980 --> 00:17:03,980
Hey, blackjack, blackjack.

177
00:17:04,980 --> 00:17:07,980
Dr. Willins won several thousand dollars, but surely it was just luck.

178
00:17:08,980 --> 00:17:14,980
I finally figured out how to win money, so the following week I went over to the Bahamas and tried the same thing, but just I didn't win.

179
00:17:15,980 --> 00:17:16,980
There'll be one more here.

180
00:17:16,980 --> 00:17:20,980
If Penny had such powers, though, surely they had much greater potential.

181
00:17:21,980 --> 00:17:32,980
It would have benefited all mankind. If we could have found out how and the why, then burn victims and cancer patients could have been pain-free just like me.

182
00:17:33,980 --> 00:17:34,980
It would have been my gift to mankind.

183
00:17:35,980 --> 00:17:40,980
But that wasn't to be. One day she was shopping in a do-it-yourself store.

184
00:17:41,980 --> 00:17:42,980
Ah!

185
00:17:43,980 --> 00:17:47,980
Three boards came down and struck me on the head.

186
00:17:48,980 --> 00:17:49,980
Are you okay? Are you all right?

187
00:17:50,980 --> 00:17:55,980
Penny Palito says she felt pain for the first time in years. It was a shock, but she seemed to recover.

188
00:17:56,980 --> 00:18:02,980
She forgot about the accident and went ahead with another operation. But this time her powers were to fail her.

189
00:18:03,980 --> 00:18:08,980
Towards the end of the surgery, I began to experience feelings I shouldn't have.

190
00:18:08,980 --> 00:18:12,980
And that was the first indication to me something was wrong.

191
00:18:13,980 --> 00:18:21,980
By this time, I realized that the ability was lost and it never came back.

192
00:18:22,980 --> 00:18:26,980
It was then that Penny took a step which would make legal history.

193
00:18:27,980 --> 00:18:34,980
She took the DIY store to court, claiming damages not just for physical injury, but also for loss of psychic pain-blocking powers.

194
00:18:34,980 --> 00:18:43,980
A few days before the trial, the store offered her $17,000 to drop the case. But money wasn't all Penny wanted.

195
00:18:44,980 --> 00:18:51,980
I wanted to legally prove that something, no matter what anybody wants to call it, did exist.

196
00:18:53,980 --> 00:18:54,980
Court is now in session.

197
00:18:55,980 --> 00:19:02,980
Our reconstruction is based on reports of the court case, which began with the DIY store's lawyer making an astonishing request.

198
00:19:03,980 --> 00:19:13,980
I do not believe that Ms. Polito has paranormal powers, but if indeed she does, we would ask that she refrain from using them to mentally invade the minds of the jury.

199
00:19:14,980 --> 00:19:15,980
No, Mr. Slok, that's going to fall.

200
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:23,980
The judge refused, but ruled that the jury should reach a verdict on both the physical and psychic injuries claimed by Penny Polito's lawyer.

201
00:19:24,980 --> 00:19:27,980
On both physical and psychic injuries. Mr. Dabinski.

202
00:19:27,980 --> 00:19:46,980
While I understand that what I am asking you to accept, to some of you may even sound crazy, we will present evidence that Mrs. Polito does indeed have abilities that go beyond the comprehension of most of us.

203
00:19:47,980 --> 00:19:51,980
The doctors who have performed all seven operations backed Penny Polito's claims.

204
00:19:52,980 --> 00:19:57,980
This woman has some very strange and unreal abilities.

205
00:19:58,980 --> 00:20:03,980
He brought in the sword that was used to cut the bone out of my foot.

206
00:20:04,980 --> 00:20:09,980
This is a markup of the human foot. This is the left foot, which I operated on.

207
00:20:10,980 --> 00:20:14,980
Then using this, cut entirely through the bone.

208
00:20:14,980 --> 00:20:24,980
And he saw through the bones to demonstrate what I must have been feeling and experiencing during the surgery.

209
00:20:25,980 --> 00:20:33,980
Things started to go wrong, however, when the DIY store's lawyer told the court about her operation a fortnight after the accident.

210
00:20:34,980 --> 00:20:39,980
As far as we're concerned, if she had that ability, she still has it. She's simply choosing not to use it.

211
00:20:39,980 --> 00:20:45,980
In his closing statement, he called her claims bizarre, absurd and ridiculous.

212
00:20:46,980 --> 00:20:56,980
And there is no such thing as paranormal activity as she describes it and defines it. Thank you.

213
00:20:57,980 --> 00:21:00,980
The jury may now retire to consider the evidence and reach a verdict.

214
00:21:00,980 --> 00:21:14,980
We have, Your Honor, we the jury found that the plaintiff, Mrs. Polito did indeed suffer physical injury as a result of an accident at Home Depot.

215
00:21:15,980 --> 00:21:21,980
However, we do not feel that she has suffered any loss of her psychic powers.

216
00:21:30,980 --> 00:21:46,980
I read that the jurors believed that the power existed. I realized that the case wasn't totally lost, that the jurors believed me.

217
00:21:47,980 --> 00:21:52,980
I myself was truly convinced that she had some amazing abilities.

218
00:21:52,980 --> 00:22:02,980
She wasn't awarded damages for the loss of her psychic abilities because she really didn't prove that she had lost the abilities due to the accident.

219
00:22:03,980 --> 00:22:14,980
That part for me was a victory because at least then I knew that jurors were convinced a power was real, it happened, it existed.

220
00:22:15,980 --> 00:22:21,980
Pain blocking powers were tested as long ago as 1935 by a group from London University.

221
00:22:22,980 --> 00:22:28,980
They carried out an experiment in which an Indian man walked across hot coals at a temperature of 800 degrees Celsius.

222
00:22:29,980 --> 00:22:31,980
He should have suffered agonizing burns, but he didn't.

223
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:37,980
If we could find out how such things can happen, medical science could be on the verge of a major breakthrough.

224
00:22:38,980 --> 00:22:40,980
Until next week, goodbye.
