Trivia Question: What famous “psychic” toured the world in the 1970s while claiming he could bend spoons with his mind?
Answer: Uri Geller
Geller became a cultural oddity rather quickly. Between sending psychic blasts through television signals and bending spoons with his mind, he came to define the 20th Century’s expectations of a performing psychic. It must be stated clearly that many mundane explanations have been offered to challenge Geller’s claims of psychic powers, and he was never able to bend spoons that he wasn’t allowed to first “handle” before filming began.
