Thomas John, the Seatbelt Psychic was caught cheating and was exposed by Susan Gerbic and Mark Edward in Operation Pizza Roll, as published in the New York Times. Enjoy this short documentary of how Thomas John was busted doing a hot reading and why we should all be skeptical of psychic mediums. Thomas John was caught gleaning information from the sitters' Facebook accounts prior to the show and he got caught red-handed. And this comes right on the tail of John Oliver's brilliant coverage exposing psychic scams.

This is my first documentary-style video. Let me know what you think. Thank you to Mark Edward and Susan Gerbic for letting me interview them and to Rob Palmer for giving me an early heads up about it before the NYT went to print. Make sure y'all check out all of their work as well as the paranormal investigator Kenny Biddle. Now, to everyone watching, they've shown you how. Now it's your chance to go out there and bust a psychic.

My grieving grandmother fell prey to this guy because of his show, and eventually paid to go get a reading from him . She was so excited and bought into it 100%, and to be honest , even as a skeptic, I was so excited for her that I did too. Shortly after the reading she re read her passed husband’s obituary and it turns out he’d been listing off information down to the exact order in which it was listed in the obituary . We were both furious, I’m sharing this video with her so she knows she’s not alone.

@@jesuspectre9883 That video is a classic example of cold reading. As for your relative, assuming the story was remembered correctly, reported to you accurately, and you are remembering correctly (which is fairly unlikely, given the limitations of human memory), so what? Lots of Americans have older relatives with dementia, and lots go to baseball games. Entirely unremarkable. Guessing high-probability things like that is a form of cold-reading (sometimes referred to as 'warm reading').

@@jesuspectre9883 Okay, so what are you saying now? You think he's a genuine psychic that picked up on fake Facebook "energy" even though they didn't know what's on it? If that's true, what good is it? Maybe psychics really do pick up on random energies from random places. If he can't tell me specific information that no one should know, like what's written on a closed envelope, than how can we know if what he's saying has any accuracy to it at all? So many psychics have been caught in blatant lies or even overheard talking about how they fake it. So many psychics have been tested by James Randi. Why does it always seem like their powers go away right when they need it the most? Why is it that not one psychic ever was able to perform better than random chance in a controlled scientific setting? It just happens so often to so many people. And I believe some of them even believe it themselves. But when it comes down to it, there's never anything there. There's always some reasonable explanation. Then you want me to watch an hour long video? Can't you just summarize it for me? What could possibly be on this hour long video that's so important? A psychic that knows something he or she shouldn't be able to know? If that's it, how can you know what he or she knows? Maybe they got together beforehand to make a particularly compelling video... I mean, it's at least possible. If you really want me to believe that psychic ability is an actual phenomenon, it's got to be done under controlled scientific conditions. Can I recommend that you at least just look at the other side of the story. You can watch people like Derren Brown who shows you how some of the tricks are done. Or, you can watch James Randi doing his million dollar tests of all things paranormal. Here's one brief video of Mr. Randi testing some psychics. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNVxd6doz73VkWg.html You don't have to watch it of course but you did ask me to watch an hour long video.

Unwilling to look at the data? Is that a joke? You completely ignored what I wrote and attacked me for doing what you're guilty of. And what does it matter what I "sound like"? I fail to see any relevance there. Did you look at the only experiments ever that tests psychics under controlled scientific conditions that I linked to you? "You're unable to even consider doing a general survey of popular respected psychics, and develop a simple, rational test to determine the nature of their comments." But then you start talking about something else. A general survey? Do you mean that I should watch a bunch of psychics do their cold reading and determine from that if they're genuine? I already talked about this. It needs to be done under controlled scientific conditions. There are too many variables going on. How could I ever determine the accuracy of their readings like that? The video I linked to you shows you psychics being tested. And I gave other examples of psychics failing. I never even mentioned the "prank" in this video. This is hypocrisy. "Have you researched some of the comments below the Thomas John Windy City Live appearance video (link below)? One of the people commenting is the person who was read-- the son of the father who died and whom he got a tattoo for. His name is Jason Campbell in Chicago, and just try to access his Facebook page without permission!" What were the controls in this experiment? How could you possibly speak to its accuracy? So, they supposedly didn't have access to his Facebook. Therefore they must have had no way of knowing anything about him. Must have been magic then... Is that really the extent of what you're willing to consider evidence? So, so far you've failed to even reference anything I said while simultaneously attacking me for being unthorough. You accused me of being angry when your own words IN THAT SAME SENTENCE betray your own anger. Where are my angry words? Clearly you're emotions are clouding your reasoning. And on top of all of that, you never even really tried to demonstrate, in any meaningful way, the truth of what you assert. You want me to watch some psychic readings, like that's going to prove something. The picture is clear. You believe what you want to believe based on feelings and you refuse to even look at the other side of the story. So then why bring me into this? Go believe in whatever you want. Go believe in David Icke's lizard men if that's what you want. But you're never going to convince anyone else unless you have some hard evidence. Like the kind I showed you. You just don't want to look at that because that might prove you wrong and you could never be wrong. I'm sorry but I do not accept your standards of evidence. And even though my standards are much less forgiving and more rigorous, you're afraid to even consider that because you have what neuro scientists call "belief perseverance". Look it up. Or don't. I don't care.

@Annemarie D The reason the Bible tells you not to go to soothsayers and mediums is because the people that wrote the bible only want people following the advice from their charlatans. The Bible is as much a con job as Psychics. I think psychics are more dangerous than Christianity but both lead to people making bad life decisions based on false information

If you do your research as to how the bible was formed, about how most of the new testement incompatable with the original hebrew old testement then you will know without question that the Christian Bible in particular the writings of paul are the biggest con job in the history of man.

He even told me he overdosed and died in a hotel laundry room. I didn’t even know that! I had to go back to his family and ask!! And it was true. I don’t have anything posted about it in my social media.

My wife at the time along with our daughter and wife's parents went to Niagara Falls. On the Canadian side my daughter and I were walking around when daughter saw a store front for a "psychic" which included palm reading. Well daughter wanted to try and me telling her it was a scam carried no weight. So in we go, daughter gets her palm read, I stand there watching and we leave when it is done.. Outside my daughter is telling me how the "psychic" got so much right. I then told my daughter that she gave the answers to the "psychic" before and during the reading and did not know it. To prove my point, I asked my daughter to tell me the questions the "psychic" asked her. So my daughter started repeating the questions then it dawned on her that she did give the "psychic" all the answers from the beginning. My daughter was about 12 at the time and the "reading" cost $20. That was $20 spent to teach my daughter to pay better attention to psychic claims and "psychics" are nothing more than scammers.

Some people do have gifts and abilities that others can't explain. Just because someone has been able to tap into those gifts, doesn't make every single one a fraud. I cometely get where y'all are coming from, there are con artists and frauds out there. But saying every person that has some sort of psychic\mediumship ability is a fraud because some are, is like saying all men are absusers, just because of some. Or all kids are bad, because we all know 1 that we can't stand to be around.. It's great to have a healthy skepticism, but when your desire to prove everyone else wrong means you keep yourself blind to any other ideas... Well, then in my humble opinion, that's crossing into the same type of behavior that this channel predominantly calls out. Just my opinion.. and a thought to consider.

Sylvia Brown(?) gave a reading about the girls whom were missing from the city. She told the one family (if I recall correctly) that it was needless /useless to search for the teenage girl any longer... She "saw" that the girl was dead now. It was then a few years later though that those young ladies all escaped from the home of the horrid man who held them captive for years, abusing all of them in awful ways... I cried tears of joy that day when I heard the news that the girls had finally been discovered and released from their imprisonment. :')

I was scammed by a psychic. She did not actually scam me directly except by playing me to suggest that an on line relationship was significant. When I realised I was being scammed and told her she said she thought the readings were rather optimistic. I don’t know how she manipulated the Tarot Cards she used and she was also reading for the friend who introduced me so may have gleaned information there.

These predators prey on the weak and spiritually void people and it’s disgusting. I’ve always known this was a sham but when my mom passed away even I started watching the Long Island Medium because I just wanted to hope that there was some way I could be close to my mom again. Of course that was during my extreme grief and I was vulnerable. When I emerged from my grief I understand how easily people can get sucked into this. I believe in God and that Truth is what saved me from getting sucked into the psychic scam.

These psychics never stand up parapsychology in general. They never say “spiritualism is real and you too can communicate with the dead.” It’s always “I’m just so amazing that I can do it.” They’re not defending some general belief or religious principle. They’re just narcissists and it’s always a joy to see them humiliated.

This was an awesome experiment by those two skeptics. They should cover more psychics and then publish a journal article on it. Their methods and meticulousness alone are good examples of how to approach these kind of problems.

There's a problem with that, some psychics/mediums actually use being exposed as fake as a sort of badge of honour, their supporters are so dumb they actually fall for it and it results in support for the medium/psychic actually increasing especially if they're not a well known one. There's an old saying, "there's no such thing as bad publicity" certainly that's true for many of these scammers.
