In high school I used to play a game with my friends called "useless superpowers" where you'd take turns coming up with superpowers that had some sort of limitation that made them way less cool. My favorite example: You can summon bears but can't control them. Anyway, I think "you have telekinesis but only on aluminum foil" would have been a strong entry for that game.
Honestly I need as many examples as I can get my hands on this sounds wonderful 💀✨ It reminds me of a game my friend and I came up with that has a similar concept; Minorly inconvenient curses, such as every 2nd time you leave the house, you get pooped on by a bird. It does not heavily affect your life, it’s just weird as hell and annoying.
@@kokorothealien6735 You are the smartest person on the planet but you are a penguin. You can fly but only 3 ft off the ground and while naked. You can change the temperature of anything by 10 degrees in either direction. You have Spider-Sense but it isn't specific. You just know that something is wrong. You are average at everything with no prior training, but you can never get better at anything. Driving, martial arts, cooking, gymnastics, etc. You are always pretty decent at it.
I find it funny to think the woman is 100% sure that she’s teaching kids to see while blindfolded and every one of the kids believes the other kids are doing it, but they’ve just found an absolutely killer way to cheat the test.
LMAO I just commented that exact same thing except that I said that the kids believe all the other kids are actually psychic, so they’re just pretending that they are also psychic to fit in, but actually none of them are
They're either weighting towards positive results and weeding out the wrong answers by not showing them or simply telling the subjects the answers and it's completely fake. And non-disclosure agreements are standard with all reality shows. It's television. They wouldn't go into the project without ensuring the result. There is no network on the planet that would produce a show about the supernatural and risk nothing supernatural "occurring".
I used to take those classes and they thought I was so good at it, but in reality I found a way to peak under the blindfold the whole time. however, my sister got really good at it, not sure if she was cheating like me though
The "expose as much skin as possible while practicing mind-sight" seems like a cheat. Like, your skin is a sensory organ, it gathers information through touch. If you're blindfolded and naked, your skin can help you tell your surroundings by just slightly brushing against things.
"don't use telekinesis as a tool to fill your insecurities or as a way to think that you are better or more special than other people around you" is literally the main thesis of mob psycho 100
My telekinesis has gotten to the point where I can keep all the dust in my room floating in suspension for hours without really trying. I try not to abuse my powers, but sometimes I give in to temptation and make someone sneeze with my mind.
Same dude, sometimes I realize I've been using telekinesis without even being aware of it, I just look in the kitchen days later and realize that I've been subconsciously mind-lifting mold right in through my (closed!) window and onto the dishes!
The woman who was losing her vision and these people just... Convinced her that se could cure it by doing these stupid holistic training is being so exploited, I seriously hope for the best for her and that she realizes this is just taking advantage of her :(
I really wish that peddling pseudo-medicine like this was illegal. You're not helping them, you're just giving them false hope for an impossible outcome. It's cruel.
@@Manigeitora it reminds me a lot of fake cancer products out there. when i got diagnosed i went down a rabbithole online of different scam products and oils designed to prevent hair loss, improve effects of chemo, or just downright cure cancer its self 💀 thankfully i knew it was all bs right away but i can't imagine how many older or more vulnerable folks there are that fall for these scams
I feel like we need to further address how fucked it is that that lady was giving someone going blind hope that she could see without her eyes. That just feels more cruel
Ding ding ding. I️ just recently watched a Ryan Beard video about Gaia. Unsurprisingly it’s pretty messed up. It promotes antisemitic conspiracy theories (the government is controlled by lizard peopl (aka the Jews), cabal, this guy who supports more antisemitic conspiracies) so I’m not that surprised they gave a blind woman false hope and did something that cruel
@FutaCatto Nah. Your morals include a sick sense of content from other people suffering and some sense of superiority over not using an app just because other people do. it seems to be more petty than anything else.
Oh my GOD. I nearly worked for a fencing academy affiliated with that Utah program. I got hired on as an admin assistant but before I could even fill out the paperwork on my first day, I was required to watch a video on the owners with this old man who founded this "science". It was incredibly culty and gave serious red flags. When the owners asked me what I thought, I gave my honest opinion that its not founded in science and in my quick google search (it was a 40 minute long video), I couldn't find any backing. They argued back that the scientific community could not replicate his findings because only the old man knew how to do it?? I walked out after that, I didn't want to be affiliated with whatever absurd teachings they were doing behind the scenes.
Saying only the old man could replicate the results actually disproves it. A scientifically proven hypothesis has to have reproducible results by other scientists, so they basically disproved any actual credibility they had when they made that claim.
@Mel Nova exactly. They gave the whole excuse of "oh, he's old. He doesn't know how to use technology to write things down" but... the scientific method existed way before computers???
I have a mind power. My mind can give me crippling anxiety and depression and deter almost anyone from me without me even talking to or looking at them. Some say it’s a mental health issue but I like to think my mind has powers and does this to me, TikTok said that’s how it works and TikTok never lies
no this is disrespectful and not funny. As a subscriber and someone who has the ability to use telekinesis in their day to day life, I can tell where he went wrong! If you take telekinesis seriously and actually made an attempt to try it instead of trying to get content then it would have worked. Danny mocked our community in this video which is why it won't work for him or you. His intentions were not pure. Our community is filled with kind, well intentioned beings and I am glad that none of you are not part of that! Un-Subscribing immediately
Gesus. the youtube tutorials and comments underneath the videos remind me of when i was a little kid and i wanted to change my eye colour so i’d watch these videos that would supposedly change my eye colour.. and all the comments were talking about how it genuinely worked, even going as far as to coming back and UPDATING their comment daily/weekly.. 😭😭
Oh my god I did the same thing 😭 I literally watched the same video every day when I came back from school and cried after a month because my eyes were still brown
I remember a while ago I was reading a thread about a story of a guy who went to one of those psychic training schools to see if the kids are actually psychic and at first he was amazed that the children could tell what card he was holding while blindfolded but then he realized they masks were too high on their face so he adjusted it and the children suddenly lost their powers lol had a good laugh reading that
@@ByzantineDarkwraith I don't know the one he's talking about but look up James Randy. American skeptic from the 70s. He used to bring people on with "psychic" powers and debunk them on stage.
Imagine Laura just walks in on Danny sitting at the coffee table yelling and gesturing at a sock, staring at some weird paper contraption all while wearing a large wizard hat 😂😂😂
I love that the explanations for telekinesis are “we are one with the universe, we are connected, so we can manipulative the environment” … like, yeah of course we can manipulate the environment. That’s why I can walk over to an object in my environment and move it by picking it up?
hmm technically there is some truth to that, but from what I've learned it's tricky to lock into that and make it work, it's probably similar to quantum entanglement but at a larger scale.
@@rambbler umm I was merely using quantum entanglement or the sharing of states by being linked to each other of 2 particles at any distance as the closest example as the concept by which actual telekinesis works does not as of yet have it's own scientific name for it's process.
regarding the kids thing: if i went to psychic school and everyone else seemed to be able to see with a blindfold, and i felt like i was the only one who couldn't, and THEN i realized I could kinda peek under it? I would peek under it, and go on assuming i was just a bad student.
Yep, I just made a very similar comment. I'm guessing that every single student is afraid of being a 'failure' or an outcast because they think that all the other kids are actually able to do those things, so they end up pushing up that blindfold a tiny bit and cheating. They probably feel a lot of pressure to 'succeed' because all of the adults (including their own parents) are pushing this idea. But what they don't realize is that they AREN'T the only one who can't do it, and all the other kids are thinking and feeling the same way.
@@Crackpot_Astronaut yeah, exactly!! i read a post online a while ago about a teacher that had made an assignment that was destined to fail (the kids had to try to grow a seed and compare the process to their original hypothesis, but they were given seeds that wouldn't grow), but apparently the ENTIRE class assumed they'd been the only ones to mess up and got a different seed instead of admitting theirs hadn't grown. I'm not a psychologist but i feel like there's a lot to be said about that. (iirc the teacher wanted to fail them all but the principal wouldn't let them, because if all the students fail it's only because the teacher did so first. of course, this is a story on the internet, take it with a pinch of salt)
@@darkprincette There's a book about this story, an emperor needed to choose a successor so he gave seeds to all the children and gave them a year to make the flower grow, but they all received seeds that couldn't grow and they didn't know it, and in the end just one boy is sincere and takes a vase with the seed planted but without any flowers to the emperor, and he is chosen to be the successor because he was honest about it. I read the book when I was a child, and the name in Portuguese is "The Empty Pot", but I don't know if it's Brazilian or if it was translated, but anyway, your story reminded me of a memory from my childhood :)
Hi Danny, that "karate" school is actually a pencak silat school from Indonesia. It's called Merpati Putih (meaning white dove) which you can see on the logos in their gym and badges. I immediately recognized it because I used to train in that school in Indonesia lol. I'm actually surprised they have a branch in the USA, but I can confirm that the blindfolded stuff is something they make us do because spirituality is a huge component of pencak silat as a martial art. But usually, it's to train your focus, spatial awareness, and hearing. Merpati Putih primarily focuses on self-defense, not to arbitrarily become psychic 😂😂
damn, i'm Indonesian and I didn't even recognize it was pencak silat lmao, I feel kinda dumb now, although I never really joined any pencak silat clubs, and whenever I did, it was for 2 days of P.E classes, so uhh
In a more recent video he used his psychic powers to play Minecraft without using his hands, and then tried to convince us all it wasn't him playing. No such luck, we can see right through you, Danny.
As a kid my parents sent me to one of those mindfold programs (not that exact program but mine had the exact same premise basically) because they thought it would help with my adhd (spoiler alert; it didnt). And i can confirm that me and everyone else cheated by peaking through the blindfold the entire time we were there. Everyone would always put the objects way too close to their face but just ever so slightly below the blindfold
Did they think you were an "indigo child" or something? Sorry to hear that was their best strategy for trying to help at the time (or I hope anyways they thought it was), ADHD can be very challenging and I hope you able to find better support later on 👍
I am absolutely loving this era of Danny earnestly trying to do things that are quite obviously going to fail. I've never seen a bad video from him, but the Ghost Hunting one is my favorite of them all, and really looking forward to this!
as somebody who believes in ghosts it is a little frustrating to see that everybody thinks its fake but this telekinesis stuff is obviously fake. even if it did exist it wouldn't just be that simple anyways. i respect the ghost hunting video though because he doesn't outright say it's not real.
My favorite type of Danny's content is when he goes to great lengths to see if something he saw on the internet works, it never does but how can you not admire the dedication?
I think the kids sort of know it's fake, but they don't say anything because they all think they figured out how to cheat while most others "genuinely" have the power.
@mekenna6214 Thanks lol🗿🌈 I'm just ready for one of these kids to be a Greg, see this video, & be old enough for the dots to connect that it's all just one giant scam because CAN YOU IMAGINE-
Frankly I find it really great and thorough that you figured out exactly how that school of 'psychokenesis' kids worked through buying the exact same blindfold.
@@melbapeach162 I'm pretty sure you don't exactly need a degree in rocket science in order to fake psychic powers by peeking underneath blindfolds. Convincing a bunch of kids to go along with it might require a bit of tact.
I just love that Danny decided to tape two needles together instead of cutting the paper. That has to be the most Danny thing he ever did, it has a nostalgic, lifehack video vibe
omg I also didn't even think about cutting the paper, my first instinct was to cut the foam shorter leaving only a little tall piece in the middle where the needle stands. That way the corners of the paper would fall around the taller middle piece without touching the rest of the foam. what is wrong with me, why did I come up with the most complicated solution 😂
relatable lol. that's how i felt when i was a teen back on tumblr and i would see all those astrology related posts. i thought everyone else thought it was fake too so i was suprised when i found out that people genuinely believed in it
Your parents definitely should not have let you be on TikTok so young, there’s so much inappropriate content there and kids shouldn’t be making videos of themselves, there’s so many predators online.
The market for deluding vulnerable and unwell people into thinking they have superpowers is an often overlooked niche of online scammers and general evil. It can lead to some fucked up outcomes for the at-risk people who buy into it, including life risking stunts, self harming beliefs, emotional backlash when it doesn't work, and with some of the worst cases, suicide is even actively recommended as a step, mostly for the most fringe parts of reality shifting believers. I've never sought out liveleak videos or shit like that, but i got my share of internet trauma stumbling across an entire youtube comment section of suicide notes when i was in highschool.
The heat from your hands thing with the paper and needle that Danny was talking about is 100%. That same concept is why the smoke from a campfire really is following you. There are some great videos about that.
Its like that applied kinesiology trick where you push on an arm at a slight angle to push someone over, that they use for those balance bracelet type scams
i was not expecting danny to be the skeptic and science communicator of this generation but i am so glad that he is, and that he manages to do it in such a funny and non-aggressive way. also he looks adorable in his wizard hat lmao
Just imagine how the neighbours would feel about seeing Danny on all fours in front of his house talking to a camera and acting like a baby then turns the other way and stays there for a couple of seconds then starts screaming IM STUCK BETWEEN TIMES. truly an awesome experience to see
@@SENPIXEL wow you teach your students to crawl around like a baby to travel back in time to do an ad read with yourself before being stuck in the space between spaces? That’s crazy bro
are you by chance an employee at nasa, and is your best friend called percy??? is he by chance a little robot guy?? cause i'm pretty sure your friend is on mars
When it comes to the video with Sean and Rachel plus the glove demonstration, Danny was onto it. Your hands create convection currents which takes the heat from your hands and disperses it under the object as it replaces cold air. This is almost like creating wind in a way but isn't quite the same. Googling convection currents then going to images will help understand. It's not Telekinesis, but instead science which is still cool.
@@Muongoing.97c I've always felt this way about folks who believe in supernatural explanations for amazing things. The supernatural reasoning really cheapens how amazing scientific understanding can truly be.
@James Pinkerton the allure is that it's not real. Deep down people know supernatural explanations aren't real. Real life is boring and confined, when something isn't real you can insert your own interpretations and thoughts.
It's so funny to see this. There was a door in my house growing up that I knew for certain I could open with my mind. Turns out, it was just an old house and stepping on one of the support beams a certain way caused it to unlatch.
I had a similar thing with my house. A door in the basement would close on its own if left open. Tho I thought the basement was haunted and not that I had powers lol. The door closed cause it wasn’t levelled
it also turns out that its possible to hang a door wrong so that it will sometimes swing open and closed at random times. If its uneven, for example, and it doesn't latch properly, an almost imperceptible gust of wind can be enough for it to open all on its own. Once its done properly, it stops happening. Pressure differentials can also be enough to cause that. I remember countless times growing up when someone would open one door (even an internal one) and it would cause the garage door to slam shut. I think its easy for a lot of people to forget that we live in a medium: air. We aren't always aware of it, we can't always detect the miniscule ways it moves around us, but even in a seemingly still environment its still swirling and moving, we just can't detect it without tools.
The absolute audacity of them having a lie so blatant that it can be debunked by just buying a $14 sleep mask from Amazon is so ridiculous that you almost have to respect it
Nah.. no respect when they’re taking money from parents or whatever the fuck the motive is. They literally took a blind person and gave her false hope 🙃
@@iLikeRawmenif you’re dumb enough to believe this and send money then that’s on the viewers not him. 😂 he’s not forcing anyone to send money. Dumb people do it themselves.
I found out about Gaia years ago and almost instantly thought it was a cult. I'm glad to see someone else finally mentioning them and how weird they are. I would love to see a full video about them
This man really does try everything. From making fun of a family with a fridge with the saUces inside, trying tactical products, and now trying to become a wizard.
I thought psychokinesis was an independent thing to telekinesis. I thought the difference was telekinesis you gotta see the object, and psychokinesis you just had to picture it in your mind.
If I remember one person described it, telekinesis is you moving it with like, your life force basically (despite tele in the name) and psychokinesis is the actual ability to move objects with only your minds power. I could be wrong, been a while, but that's what I was told.
here’s something: when i was a young teenager (and to be fair, had some issues with my mental health that hadn’t been addressed yet lol) i used to see videos like this about telekinesis on youtube and stuff and even though i started out skeptical i eventually began trying it out and i genuinely thought i was learning to do it and moving crystals i had bought with the power of my mind. in reality i was placing the crystal atop my other hand (as directed in the videos i’d watched) and definitely just unconsciously moving that hand ever so slightly, causing the crystal to move. however i TRULY believed at that young-ish age that i had mind powers and that full-blown telekinesis was something that i and everyone else could achieve if i just worked hard enough for it. i feel like some of the more extreme examples you showed here are just really taking advantage of gullible, vulnerable people. even though i think i was a smart kid, i wasn’t doing too well mentally and definitely could have been indoctrinated to believe of a lot of insane things at the time. it makes me sad to think of people looking for hope letting themselves believe things they know not to be true because it gives them something to work towards. i don’t blame that woman going blind one bit for wanting to believe in the impossible when faced with something so difficult and it’s fucked up someone is taking advantage of her like that.
I hope things are better for you now and I"m sorry that you were tricked like that. What you wrote here is really important. So many people think that they can't be taken in by stuff like this (or even worse things like cults) because they're too intelligent, but it's not at all down to intelligence whether you can be made to believe something untrue or absurd- it's all about vulnerability.
I remember when I was in year 4 I discovered Crystal children and a mixture of other insane things. I remember thinking all of it was real because there were so many websites and videos all explaining it, so I took everything as fact. I desperately wanted to believe I was one and excitedly told my mum ‘I think I’m a Crystal child’ and my mum was like ‘Don’t be silly hana, don’t bring up that rubbish’ and in my mind I was annoyed at her because she disappointed me but then I realised how stupid it was lol
It could've been worse, at 19 i told my friends I thought i had driven enough that i had built up the ability to do it with my eyes closed (i didn't try it after seeing their worried faces)
It's unironically not a big deal. People who believe what they see on fucking Tik Tok will be removed from the gene pool a la Darwin. The only alternative is to start censoring 'misinformation' which is a REALLY slippery slope for people that live in a country that was built on the idea of freedom of speech.
when i was in like fifth grade (around 2014/2015) i found a few telekinesis tutorials on RUclips and i was convinced it was completely real. i was able to knock over a piece of paper (it was really the air from my hand pushing forward lmao) and i was practicing it at school and the guy next to me figured out what i was doing so while i was doing it he blew on the paper and it flew across the table and i got so excited that my teacher took me out into the hallway and told me to stop because it wasnt real 😭😭
That's even Shittier tho you would feel such guilt and anxiety about getting found out (or at least I would lol) and the imposter syndrome would be crazy. Those poor kids
I was one of those kids growing up, can confirm! I was convinced I just wasn't doing it right but I kept getting encouragment from the teacher ("you're the fastest to have solved X puzzle" "yeah, that's green, good job!") so I just marched on haha
@@DNAndrei would you mind if I asked what it was like going to one of those places regularly and why you/your parents sent you there? No worries if not, I’m just super curious about them :)
@@lovelymj7310 no problem, I actually explained in a separate comment! Basically, my mom was sold on the idea that it would stop my advancing myopia - that's why most kids do this, for vision problems. The place was fine, but truth be told we mostly had to practice at home. Some of them were legit eye strain exercises, others just entailed doing puzzles and reading and going about our day with the eyemask on.
i remember when i first read matilda i REALLY wanted to be able to do telekinesis, so i read a wikihow article and tried really hard to move shit with my mind everywhere i went. since matilda never used her hands for it, i didn't either, so i probably just looked like i was kubrick-staring at random objects everywhere i went (and i did this in public too, at like restaurants and stores). of course it didn't work lmao
Most people attempt this, realize it doesn't work and then move on. And then there's people from Tik Tok who couldn't let go and decided to fake it for the feel good points.
I was convinced as a kid that standing in front of the microwave with my forehead pressed against the glass would give me telekinetic powers. So yeah now I'm 33 just waiting for my brain tumor diagnosis or whatever

Man has been doing this for YEARS and this lady not only replicated his result but arguably did it BETTER on her first day! I'm surprised Rachel left that house alive.
There was a show similar to that in china but they would disprove conspiracies. One episode was about a teacher teaching kids to be able to see through things so they would blindfold them and have them read what was written on the whiteboard. Well it was revealed that they were literally just peeking underneath the blindfold. They proved it when they asked the kids to tell them what was locked in a safe
@@bensanders5681typically things like this are all about selling kids an ‘ability’ they have, make them feel special and use that to sell something to them
These schools are/were pretty big in India, as a way to give your kid a leg up in their life. Something about developing unused parts of the brain. It's sad honestly.
@@boscorner they're probably referring to pattern recognition and being able to have accurate predictions as to what people will do/say based off of said pattern recognition

Fun fact: Psychokinesis is actually the proper term for being able to move something with the mind specifically, while telekinesis is a broad term for any ability to interact with things from a distance without physical means.
You got the two backwards. Telekinesis refers to movement, psychokinesis is the umbrella that that covers any mental influence. That's only in the field of parapsychology, though. Everyone else views them as the same thing.
@@stevendemayo3631 No the original poster is right though? Kinesis means movement in ancient Greek. Tele means (from) far away in ancient Greek. Psycho comes from the Greek word Psyche which means mind. So telekinesis refers to movement from a distance, and psychokinesis refers to movement using the mind. Most people use them interchangably though, but they were definitely right about the original meanings.
As someone with a mild interest in psychology, these types of videos where people are instructing others on how to use "powers" or do otherwise extraordinary things are endlessly fascinating to me. Did the person making them really believe it was real? Do they know it's bogus and were just trying to look cool or interesting? Do the people commenting about how it worked truly believe they succeeded, or do they just not want to feel insecure for being unable to do something? Or is it all just some big joke and everyone is playing along? There are so many possibilities and whether it's unlocking your latent "psychic powers" or chanting spells at the moon to turn into a wolf I can never get enough. As long as people aren't getting themselves or others hurt by avoiding legitimate treatment for a serious health condition, anyway.
Yeah, it's been a thing I like to think about and pick at for years. I've seen it on other "transformation and magic" videos, and the people usually give long detailed explanations of what "happened." tbh, its probably because they're kids, I remember being attracted to that kind of content when i was younger.
I think it's really gross that this place does this with children. Children often crave approval from those around them, don't have a great understanding of the world yet and don't really have any control over what their parents are exposing them to, so preying on those vulnerabilities just feels especially insidious to me. Kids really only have what the adults around them are giving them to go off of, so it's entirely possible these kids truly believe they have these powers because that's what the adults are telling them. I mean it's either that or they're being pushed to lie. Neither scenario is great or strikes me as a particularly good environment for a kid to be learning from. Most of these types of places are also charging the families. Like even if the people going think it's real, the people running them are usually just scam artists. I can have sympathy for adults who earnestly believe they have supernatural powers (though sometimes it makes me very sad because it's clearly a person who should be receiving some kind of mental health treatment and isn't) and aren't hurting anyone with those beliefs. I even have a certain level of understanding for people who do things like séances if what they're doing ultimately ends up providing the people they work with comfort and closure. But I get upset when they start trying to take advantage of people (e.g., psychics who charge large amounts of money or people who claim they can heal) or involving children.
I think its a combination of all those options. There are probably some mentally ill people who genuinely believe it, those who just want to look cool and those that are just joking. Its fascinating from every perspective tho. Humans are fascinating lol
When I was little (about 10-11 years old) I used to believe I could do telekinesis. I was a big fan of silver the hedgehog and always wanted to be like him, so I would follow several tutorials I found. I was practicing with a piece of paper and, whether is was maybe a heavy breath or I flinched without realizing, it moved; and instead of being excited, I almost passed out. Obviously I don't have psychic powers, but at the moment i thought it worked, and I was really scared.
Oh my god same when I was a kid I absolutely adored Silver but I was too scared of trying out tutorials because it would break the illusion if it didn't work! I feel you man
So glad someone mentioned Silver because that's legit the only time/ place I've ever heard the term psychokinesis (also glad someone mentioned him because he's amazing :D)
3:23 i dont want to practice manipulating objects, i dont want to practice writing when i can already do it, i dont want to plactice drinking water either
The thing is, its absolutely possible to learn how to do basically anything blindfolded with enough trial and error. People speedrun entire games blindfolded effortlessly. The difference is they don't do it to scam people, and they definitely do not indoctrinate kids into their scams.
The thing is though, with that you’re completely reliant on senses other than sight. So unless you have different textured paper that you are holding in your hands to guess the color that way or something, you can never ‘see’ blindfolded no matter how much you practice
I know I'm late to this, but I think it's the kids are doing something similar to "heaven tourism" (made popular by books like heaven is for real and others like it) where the kids are playing into it all because they like the attention, and makes them feel important, and importantly just telling the adults around them what they know they want to hear. A lot of the child authors of these books have come back as adults and explained that they were lying to get the attention from the adults around them. (I'm specifically citing Alex Malarkey's story for those interested)
Big shoutout to Danny for opening my eyes to the incredible potential within me. Before watching, the idea of using my mind to move things seemed like pure fantasy. But through his guidance, I've unlocked a skill I never thought possible. This has been a life-changing experience, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the confidence and abilities I've gained. Thank you, Greg, for showing me the true power of belief and focus. Your teachings have truly transformed my perspective and capabilities.
I live like 10 min south of Ogden, UT. One of my friends is really into all this stuff and when I was diagnosed with cancer about 8 months ago tried to get me into it to cure my cancer. It was stage 4 and a pretty poor outlook for survival. Well… months later after chemo and surgeries it looks like we beat the odds and rid my body of the cancer. Still have a LONG recovery, but things like this are dangerous. If I would have refused medical treatment and did some of this stuff I’d probably be dead or close to it right now.
Congrats on remission! I live in Ogden and this doesn’t surprise me. Although when “Ogden, UT” flashed across the screen I jumped for some reason because it was so bizarre to see my location jumpscare me. For the briefest of moments I thought Danny had somehow doxxed me in particular, lol.
The ability to manipulate air is capled Aerokinesis, and anyone can do it. Now for hydrokinesis, you have to be IN the water, sadly. For Geokinesis, the power to move earth, you need a shovel.

I was Soo dum thinking Im the main character and thought I could manipulate air , and the most embarrassing thing is I tested my "power* on there hand and they just went with it and said *WOAH INJUST FELT A STRONG GUST OF WIND ON MY HAND YOUR POWERS WORK!!"
I was actually one of those kids who trained with the blindfold! I had rapidly advancing myopia at the time and they basically sold my mom on the idea that it would restore my eyesight. I wasn't allowed to read at that age because my family thought it would make my vision even worse. Anyway, I would do puzzles blindfolded which was pretty fun, and I remember the feel of that weird stryfoamy thing around my eyes like it's yesterday. It was pretty disorienting but I quickly got to a point where I could just... go about my day through just what I saw in the slits, working with very limited field of view. That might actually be useful! Being able do discern what objects are with very limited information (like a slit of myopic vision) might mean less eye strain. Not sure tho. My eyesight hasn't gotten any better though!
The sad thing though is that there are actually places that will teach you skills that work even for fully blind people and can get you to a level that is pretty impressive. I mean look at me, I am fully blind, but I walked to work just fine today while crossing a couple of somewhat busy streets and now I am writing this comment to you with my phone using a screen reader. last weekend I booked A hotel with my girlfriend who is also blind, Got and paid for rides to the hotel, and stayed there with no one else. before that I cooked a couple of meals with no assistance, watched lots of RUclips videos and got a couple things on Amazon and Walmart, Played some computer games etc. No it's not all sunshine and roses and some things really are essentially impossible or just much much harder without help from someone who can see, but many things can be worked around especially with the technology we have these days if you get the right kind of training. It's sad that so few people have access to that kind of training though, it is definitely a privilege and I realize that. still, blindness skills are helpful for anyone with vision loss because vision gets worse as you get older anyway, plus certain conditions are already degenerative. look up Colorado Center for the blind for an example of the kind of thing I mean if you are curious.
@@superfreq7378 yeah, people have this belief that blind people are helpless, but obviously you aren't. It's better to actually learn how to help those with little to no sight instead of trying to "cure" them with quack science.
There are some really interesting techniques people can learn to function with limited to no vision. Humans have an amazing ability to adapt and learn. But trying to convince people you can heal their lost vision when there's no actual way for medical science to do so, or convince them that they have psychic powers is really messed up (especially since most of these places are charging insane amounts of money). I think it's especially gross that this place does this with children. Children don't have a great understanding of the world yet and don't really have any control over what their parents are exposing them to, so preying on those vulnerabilities just feels especially insidious to me.
yeah, saying it’s psychic powers is bull, but I have terrible eyesight without my glasses and can still maneuver perfectly through my house without them. your other senses just adapt. the same happens to blind animals. it’s amazing how adept the body can be :)
@@bishielurfer that's the thing, humans are crazy adaptable, but it isn't psychic powers, it's just the ability of a human to adapt and overcome things and function just fine with no vision
A few months ago I thought I could channel air and „light energy“ between my hands and feel / manipulate it. Looking back at it now I‘m pretty sure I have some weird mental illness that made me go psychotic for a bit, but it did make me feel very special so 10/10.
Probably just an episode of psychosis! Sounds like it went away on its own though 😸 I had similar delusions, thought I could control smoke and fire, and contact with the ‘other side’. I thought I was like 11 from stranger things, thinking I had supernatural abilities. 😹

The school thing with blindfolded kids has been disproven through another experiment. I forgot what it’s called. But we learned about it in some psych class. And yes Danny was right. Most of the time the kids were just looking through the blindfolds or they had memorized the orders of cards, or obstacle courses. Originally the schools knew what day the observers were coming and controlled the order of the tests. But the researchers came back on another day unannounced and controlled the tests themselves and the kids all failed
@@ScooterCat64 That's what almost every non-believer says though. That's the thing, so many people think it's crazy, that probably not even 1% of the world actually tries and seeks it out.

They're either weighting towards positive results and weeding out the wrong answers by not showing them or simply telling the subjects the answers and it's completely fake. And non-disclosure agreements are standard with all reality shows.
It's television. They wouldn't go into the project without ensuring the result. There is no network on the planet that would produce a show about the supernatural and risk nothing supernatural "occurring".
I used to take those classes and they thought I was so good at it, but in reality I found a way to peak under the blindfold the whole time. however, my sister got really good at it, not sure if she was cheating like me though

@@darkokonoe straight up they'd be like "now rip the wire spiral out of a notebook and melt it with a candle to solder the needles together..."
The "expose as much skin as possible while practicing mind-sight" seems like a cheat. Like, your skin is a sensory organ, it gathers information through touch. If you're blindfolded and naked, your skin can help you tell your surroundings by just slightly brushing against things.
so to simplify, if your worried about being blind and not knowing anything about where you are, get naked and close your eyes for some practice!

Oh my GOD. I nearly worked for a fencing academy affiliated with that Utah program. I got hired on as an admin assistant but before I could even fill out the paperwork on my first day, I was required to watch a video on the owners with this old man who founded this "science". It was incredibly culty and gave serious red flags. When the owners asked me what I thought, I gave my honest opinion that its not founded in science and in my quick google search (it was a 40 minute long video), I couldn't find any backing. They argued back that the scientific community could not replicate his findings because only the old man knew how to do it?? I walked out after that, I didn't want to be affiliated with whatever absurd teachings they were doing behind the scenes.
tf does any of that have to do with fencing??? You just poke the sword, there'[s no magic.
@@Zepher0987 ikr? They didn't even advertise this program. It felt like some secretive backroom stuff
Saying only the old man could replicate the results actually disproves it. A scientifically proven hypothesis has to have reproducible results by other scientists, so they basically disproved any actual credibility they had when they made that claim.

Yep, I just made a very similar comment. I'm guessing that every single student is afraid of being a 'failure' or an outcast because they think that all the other kids are actually able to do those things, so they end up pushing up that blindfold a tiny bit and cheating. They probably feel a lot of pressure to 'succeed' because all of the adults (including their own parents) are pushing this idea.
But what they don't realize is that they AREN'T the only one who can't do it, and all the other kids are thinking and feeling the same way.
@@Crackpot_Astronaut yeah, exactly!! i read a post online a while ago about a teacher that had made an assignment that was destined to fail (the kids had to try to grow a seed and compare the process to their original hypothesis, but they were given seeds that wouldn't grow), but apparently the ENTIRE class assumed they'd been the only ones to mess up and got a different seed instead of admitting theirs hadn't grown.
I'm not a psychologist but i feel like there's a lot to be said about that.

Hi Danny, that "karate" school is actually a pencak silat school from Indonesia. It's called Merpati Putih (meaning white dove) which you can see on the logos in their gym and badges. I immediately recognized it because I used to train in that school in Indonesia lol. I'm actually surprised they have a branch in the USA, but I can confirm that the blindfolded stuff is something they make us do because spirituality is a huge component of pencak silat as a martial art. But usually, it's to train your focus, spatial awareness, and hearing. Merpati Putih primarily focuses on self-defense, not to arbitrarily become psychic 😂😂
This is really interesting, thank you for sharing :)
Indonesia mentioned
Ah, so these people just took a valid thing and transformed it into something dumb.
That makes sense, it's much easier to train yourself to tune in to your hearing when you don't have visual stimuli distracting you.
damn, i'm Indonesian and I didn't even recognize it was pencak silat lmao, I feel kinda dumb now, although I never really joined any pencak silat clubs, and whenever I did, it was for 2 days of P.E classes, so uhh

It can lead to some fucked up outcomes for the at-risk people who buy into it, including life risking stunts, self harming beliefs, emotional backlash when it doesn't work, and with some of the worst cases, suicide is even actively recommended as a step, mostly for the most fringe parts of reality shifting believers. I've never sought out liveleak videos or shit like that, but i got my share of internet trauma stumbling across an entire youtube comment section of suicide notes when i was in highschool.
The heat from your hands thing with the paper and needle that Danny was talking about is 100%. That same concept is why the smoke from a campfire really is following you. There are some great videos about that.

@@ciciamanda. woah!! how did you know that!! you must have --tele-- psychokinesis!!
When it comes to the video with Sean and Rachel plus the glove demonstration, Danny was onto it. Your hands create convection currents which takes the heat from your hands and disperses it under the object as it replaces cold air. This is almost like creating wind in a way but isn't quite the same. Googling convection currents then going to images will help understand. It's not Telekinesis, but instead science which is still cool.
What's that Thor quote about magic and science being the same thing again?
I’d argue it’s more cool because, here’s the kicker, it’s real.
Cool party trick
@@Muongoing.97c I've always felt this way about folks who believe in supernatural explanations for amazing things. The supernatural reasoning really cheapens how amazing scientific understanding can truly be.
@James Pinkerton the allure is that it's not real. Deep down people know supernatural explanations aren't real. Real life is boring and confined, when something isn't real you can insert your own interpretations and thoughts.
It's so funny to see this. There was a door in my house growing up that I knew for certain I could open with my mind. Turns out, it was just an old house and stepping on one of the support beams a certain way caused it to unlatch.
Hey that's still cool nonetheless
I had a similar thing with my house. A door in the basement would close on its own if left open. Tho I thought the basement was haunted and not that I had powers lol. The door closed cause it wasn’t levelled
it also turns out that its possible to hang a door wrong so that it will sometimes swing open and closed at random times. If its uneven, for example, and it doesn't latch properly, an almost imperceptible gust of wind can be enough for it to open all on its own. Once its done properly, it stops happening.
Pressure differentials can also be enough to cause that. I remember countless times growing up when someone would open one door (even an internal one) and it would cause the garage door to slam shut. I think its easy for a lot of people to forget that we live in a medium: air. We aren't always aware of it, we can't always detect the miniscule ways it moves around us, but even in a seemingly still environment its still swirling and moving, we just can't detect it without tools.
That would be a really good party trick though

I thought psychokinesis was an independent thing to telekinesis. I thought the difference was telekinesis you gotta see the object, and psychokinesis you just had to picture it in your mind.
If I remember one person described it, telekinesis is you moving it with like, your life force basically (despite tele in the name) and psychokinesis is the actual ability to move objects with only your minds power. I could be wrong, been a while, but that's what I was told.
can we talk about how danny risked making a tornado in his living room for this video? round of applause 👏
Careful if you applaud to slowly your hands will become magnets and you'll cause a tornado (from expirience)
🌪👏
here’s something:
when i was a young teenager (and to be fair, had some issues with my mental health that hadn’t been addressed yet lol) i used to see videos like this about telekinesis on youtube and stuff and even though i started out skeptical i eventually began trying it out and i genuinely thought i was learning to do it and moving crystals i had bought with the power of my mind. in reality i was placing the crystal atop my other hand (as directed in the videos i’d watched) and definitely just unconsciously moving that hand ever so slightly, causing the crystal to move. however i TRULY believed at that young-ish age that i had mind powers and that full-blown telekinesis was something that i and everyone else could achieve if i just worked hard enough for it.
i feel like some of the more extreme examples you showed here are just really taking advantage of gullible, vulnerable people. even though i think i was a smart kid, i wasn’t doing too well mentally and definitely could have been indoctrinated to believe of a lot of insane things at the time. it makes me sad to think of people looking for hope letting themselves believe things they know not to be true because it gives them something to work towards. i don’t blame that woman going blind one bit for wanting to believe in the impossible when faced with something so difficult and it’s fucked up someone is taking advantage of her like that.
I hope things are better for you now and I"m sorry that you were tricked like that. What you wrote here is really important. So many people think that they can't be taken in by stuff like this (or even worse things like cults) because they're too intelligent, but it's not at all down to intelligence whether you can be made to believe something untrue or absurd- it's all about vulnerability.
dude me too! i had terrible psycosis at the time
You Were smart. The smarter the kid, the stronger the imagination.
I remember when I was in year 4 I discovered Crystal children and a mixture of other insane things. I remember thinking all of it was real because there were so many websites and videos all explaining it, so I took everything as fact. I desperately wanted to believe I was one and excitedly told my mum ‘I think I’m a Crystal child’ and my mum was like ‘Don’t be silly hana, don’t bring up that rubbish’ and in my mind I was annoyed at her because she disappointed me but then I realised how stupid it was lol
It could've been worse, at 19 i told my friends I thought i had driven enough that i had built up the ability to do it with my eyes closed (i didn't try it after seeing their worried faces)
In all seriousness, TikTok misinformation is kind of a big deal, so thank you for tackling some of it in your own very funny way

The only alternative is to start censoring 'misinformation' which is a REALLY slippery slope for people that live in a country that was built on the idea of freedom of speech.
when i was in like fifth grade (around 2014/2015) i found a few telekinesis tutorials on RUclips and i was convinced it was completely real. i was able to knock over a piece of paper (it was really the air from my hand pushing forward lmao) and i was practicing it at school and the guy next to me figured out what i was doing so while i was doing it he blew on the paper and it flew across the table and i got so excited that my teacher took me out into the hallway and told me to stop because it wasnt real 😭😭
I feel the kids could easily believe that they are the only one cheating and the other kids are actually magical.
That's even Shittier tho you would feel such guilt and anxiety about getting found out (or at least I would lol) and the imposter syndrome would be crazy. Those poor kids
I was one of those kids growing up, can confirm! I was convinced I just wasn't doing it right but I kept getting encouragment from the teacher ("you're the fastest to have solved X puzzle" "yeah, that's green, good job!") so I just marched on haha
@@DNAndrei would you mind if I asked what it was like going to one of those places regularly and why you/your parents sent you there? No worries if not, I’m just super curious about them :)
@@lovelymj7310 no problem, I actually explained in a separate comment! Basically, my mom was sold on the idea that it would stop my advancing myopia - that's why most kids do this, for vision problems.

Some of them were legit eye strain exercises, others just entailed doing puzzles and reading and going about our day with the eyemask on.
@@DNAndrei thank you so much! That’s really interesting
i remember when i first read matilda i REALLY wanted to be able to do telekinesis, so i read a wikihow article and tried really hard to move shit with my mind everywhere i went. since matilda never used her hands for it, i didn't either, so i probably just looked like i was kubrick-staring at random objects everywhere i went (and i did this in public too, at like restaurants and stores). of course it didn't work lmao
I did that too, and now I have a bad habit of creepily staring at things without even realizing it
You guys are like the telekinesis dude from “Accepted”
Most people attempt this, realize it doesn't work and then move on. And then there's people from Tik Tok who couldn't let go and decided to fake it for the feel good points.

Fun fact: Psychokinesis is actually the proper term for being able to move something with the mind specifically, while telekinesis is a broad term for any ability to interact with things from a distance without physical means.
You got the two backwards. Telekinesis refers to movement, psychokinesis is the umbrella that that covers any mental influence.
That's only in the field of parapsychology, though. Everyone else views them as the same thing.

@@stevendemayo3631 No the original poster is right though? Kinesis means movement in ancient Greek. Tele means (from) far away in ancient Greek.

Most people use them interchangably though, but they were definitely right about the original meanings.

15:30 "Can you come closer, my minds eye needs glasses"
As someone with a mild interest in psychology, these types of videos where people are instructing others on how to use "powers" or do otherwise extraordinary things are endlessly fascinating to me. Did the person making them really believe it was real? Do they know it's bogus and were just trying to look cool or interesting? Do the people commenting about how it worked truly believe they succeeded, or do they just not want to feel insecure for being unable to do something? Or is it all just some big joke and everyone is playing along? There are so many possibilities and whether it's unlocking your latent "psychic powers" or chanting spells at the moon to turn into a wolf I can never get enough. As long as people aren't getting themselves or others hurt by avoiding legitimate treatment for a serious health condition, anyway.
Yeah, it's been a thing I like to think about and pick at for years. I've seen it on other "transformation and magic" videos, and the people usually give long detailed explanations of what "happened." tbh, its probably because they're kids, I remember being attracted to that kind of content when i was younger.
I think it's really gross that this place does this with children. Children often crave approval from those around them, don't have a great understanding of the world yet and don't really have any control over what their parents are exposing them to, so preying on those vulnerabilities just feels especially insidious to me. Kids really only have what the adults around them are giving them to go off of, so it's entirely possible these kids truly believe they have these powers because that's what the adults are telling them. I mean it's either that or they're being pushed to lie. Neither scenario is great or strikes me as a particularly good environment for a kid to be learning from.
Most of these types of places are also charging the families. Like even if the people going think it's real, the people running them are usually just scam artists.
I can have sympathy for adults who earnestly believe they have supernatural powers (though sometimes it makes me very sad because it's clearly a person who should be receiving some kind of mental health treatment and isn't) and aren't hurting anyone with those beliefs. I even have a certain level of understanding for people who do things like séances if what they're doing ultimately ends up providing the people they work with comfort and closure. But I get upset when they start trying to take advantage of people (e.g., psychics who charge large amounts of money or people who claim they can heal) or involving children.
I ain’t reading all that we up though 🗣🔥🗣🔥
I think its a combination of all those options. There are probably some mentally ill people who genuinely believe it, those who just want to look cool and those that are just joking. Its fascinating from every perspective tho. Humans are fascinating lol

When I was little (about 10-11 years old) I used to believe I could do telekinesis. I was a big fan of silver the hedgehog and always wanted to be like him, so I would follow several tutorials I found. I was practicing with a piece of paper and, whether is was maybe a heavy breath or I flinched without realizing, it moved; and instead of being excited, I almost passed out. Obviously I don't have psychic powers, but at the moment i thought it worked, and I was really scared.
As a fellow sonic kid this is super validating to read.
Oh my god same when I was a kid I absolutely adored Silver but I was too scared of trying out tutorials because it would break the illusion if it didn't work! I feel you man

Seeing Danny just laugh maniacally at a piece of paper I think is absolutely amazing
The thing is, its absolutely possible to learn how to do basically anything blindfolded with enough trial and error. People speedrun entire games blindfolded effortlessly. The difference is they don't do it to scam people, and they definitely do not indoctrinate kids into their scams.
But those have hundreds of hours of perfectly planned strategies and counting
Wouldn't called it effortlessly, it takes more effort that anything I did in my life.
@drayke8886 Getting to that point is what takes the effort, once you reach the point they've reached it's pure muscle memory
The thing is though, with that you’re completely reliant on senses other than sight. So unless you have different textured paper that you are holding in your hands to guess the color that way or something, you can never ‘see’ blindfolded no matter how much you practice
I know I'm late to this, but I think it's the kids are doing something similar to "heaven tourism" (made popular by books like heaven is for real and others like it) where the kids are playing into it all because they like the attention, and makes them feel important, and importantly just telling the adults around them what they know they want to hear. A lot of the child authors of these books have come back as adults and explained that they were lying to get the attention from the adults around them.

I was actually one of those kids who trained with the blindfold! I had rapidly advancing myopia at the time and they basically sold my mom on the idea that it would restore my eyesight. I wasn't allowed to read at that age because my family thought it would make my vision even worse.
Anyway, I would do puzzles blindfolded which was pretty fun, and I remember the feel of that weird stryfoamy thing around my eyes like it's yesterday. It was pretty disorienting but I quickly got to a point where I could just... go about my day through just what I saw in the slits, working with very limited field of view.
That might actually be useful! Being able do discern what objects are with very limited information (like a slit of myopic vision) might mean less eye strain. Not sure tho. My eyesight hasn't gotten any better though!
The sad thing though is that there are actually places that will teach you skills that work even for fully blind people and can get you to a level that is pretty impressive. I mean look at me, I am fully blind, but I walked to work just fine today while crossing a couple of somewhat busy streets and now I am writing this comment to you with my phone using a screen reader. last weekend I booked A hotel with my girlfriend who is also blind, Got and paid for rides to the hotel, and stayed there with no one else. before that I cooked a couple of meals with no assistance, watched lots of RUclips videos and got a couple things on Amazon and Walmart, Played some computer games etc. No it's not all sunshine and roses and some things really are essentially impossible or just much much harder without help from someone who can see, but many things can be worked around especially with the technology we have these days if you get the right kind of training. It's sad that so few people have access to that kind of training though, it is definitely a privilege and I realize that. still, blindness skills are helpful for anyone with vision loss because vision gets worse as you get older anyway, plus certain conditions are already degenerative. look up Colorado Center for the blind for an example of the kind of thing I mean if you are curious.
@@superfreq7378 yeah, people have this belief that blind people are helpless, but obviously you aren't. It's better to actually learn how to help those with little to no sight instead of trying to "cure" them with quack science.
There are some really interesting techniques people can learn to function with limited to no vision. Humans have an amazing ability to adapt and learn. But trying to convince people you can heal their lost vision when there's no actual way for medical science to do so, or convince them that they have psychic powers is really messed up (especially since most of these places are charging insane amounts of money).

The school thing with blindfolded kids has been disproven through another experiment. I forgot what it’s called. But we learned about it in some psych class. And yes Danny was right. Most of the time the kids were just looking through the blindfolds or they had memorized the orders of cards, or obstacle courses. Originally the schools knew what day the observers were coming and controlled the order of the tests. But the researchers came back on another day unannounced and controlled the tests themselves and the kids all failed

@@ScooterCat64 That's what almost every non-believer says though. That's the thing, so many people think it's crazy, that probably not even 1% of the world actually tries and seeks it out.
I like to think that the students think that the teachers genuinely believe these kids have powers and the kids just think they're completely grifting the teachers

Is that why that's your name
Do you just have glasses or do you actually have a notable eye condition?
@@samtheman-mr4ph Dude, you can't just ask someone that. Do you assume ambular wheelchair users are faking, too? My ex had "just glases" but was legally blind without them.

It's all true. I took a Post-It note and placed it on a table. In a well ventilated room with the windows and doors open, I enjoyed cooling draughts as my mind made the note skitter slightly across the surface. Looking forward to future experiments with balloons and feathers outdoors.

Danny buying floral foam and then being disgusted by how crumbly it is is so funny. Welcome to my tactile nightmare, friend.
Thank god I'm not the only one who noticed lmao
@@justaperson4656 my mom used them a lot growing up and just seeing that shade of green in a rectangle I was like "oh no"
@@geegeezlouis86 I'm not someone who uses it a lot, but it's pretty versatile. Obviously it's used a lot in plants too, but I had to use it in dt once. Dark green? Cuboid? A problem
@@justaperson4656 what's DT? I'm dumb lol
@@geegeezlouis86 nah you aren't, dt is design technology, basically a construction course
I love how she is telling people to not use telekinesis as an ego boost while also using her “telekinesis powers” as an ego boost on TikTok.
That’s HER ego boost, find another one!
They really made a whole documentary about telekinesis, not knowing that „psychokinesis“ is already a word for something else
