Uri Geller on Winning the Million-Dollar Criss Angel Challenge Controversy

Posted on Friday, December 07, 2007 - 04:00 PM

Uri Geller, the famous spoon bender, comments on the last episode of NBC TV's "Phenomenon."

Uri Geller on Winning the Million-Dollar Criss Angel Challenge Controversy

The world is abuzz with Uri Geller seeming to zero in on an envelope magician Criss Angel held up live on NBC TV as a challenge to Mr. Geller for one-million dollars. Amazingly Mr. Geller came up with the numbers 911 that were hidden in the envelope.

The event was telecast live on the finale of NBC TV's Phenomenon on Wednesday night, November 15th.

Paranormalist and psychic investigator Dick Brooks, also director of the world-famous Houdini Museum in Scranton, Pa., managed to get an exclusive interview with Uri Geller on the event. Geller said, "I don't know what happened. When Criss Angel challenged me, I suddenly started blurting out dates. It was not rehearsed. Why dates? I have no idea why I did it till now. That's how these things happen to me. The dates or numbers I started to blurt out were 1, 19, which reversed is 911. I also said the numbers 20 and 1, which is close to 2001. What are the odds of that? In Europe, where I'm from, the date 911 is 119."

Geller commented, "Maybe if he would not have cut me off so quickly, I would have zeroed in not only on 911, but the whole year 2001. If I was being tested in a laboratory these all would clearly be considered hits."

The video has popped on youtube.com pointing out the hits as they occurred. It can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G096iqoGIjY.

Dick Brooks, psychic investigator, and a director along with magician Dorothy Dietrich of the renowned Houdini Museum in Scranton, PA, will continue to follow up on the story.

The Houdini Museum is the only museum in the world dedicated to Houdini, and is a source throughout the world for information about the legendary performer. Dick Brooks is also a nationally known paranormalist, and director of Scranton's Psychic Theater. The theater is currently presenting America's longest-running and well-reviewed show dealing with the paranormal. It's a three-hour-plus evening with experiments in mind control, telepathy, psychokinesis, sightless vision, mentalism that ends with a recreation of an old-time seance. The presentation tells the story of hauntings going back to the Houdini era that happened in the building. They included a murder, suicide, and electrocution. The show then explores the pros and cons of such beliefs. Scranton and Gettysburg in Pennsylvania are considered two of the most haunted cities in the world: Scranton because of the miners that died trapped in the mines and Gettysburg because of the many deaths in the US Civil War.
