• Quick note - the problem with Youtube videos not embedding on the forum appears to have been fixed, thanks to ZiprHead. If you do still see problems let me know.

Anyone heard about this dude? (pavelprorok on youtube)

This dude who calls himself paveprorok over at youtube left a comment on one of my AC360 Browne Smackdown clips and I was wondering if anyone have any knowledge about him?

Looks like he's applying with a variation of the Zener Cards.

His claim, apparently, is that he will guess five right out of ten Zener cards. Would that qualify?

Yes but would need to be repeated 3 times to odd of over 1000 to 1 for the prelim.

Never heard of him. He doesn't seem to be aware of Rule 12, does he?

He does claim on his page that he has had articles written about him, but I couldn't get the page he (tried to) reference loaded. He should really use his psychic powers to put spaces between all of the words he uses when typing.

They completely stopped posting the challenge applications here, didn't they? I loved reading those...
 
Eh, it seems that he wants to use eighty unique cards. The obvious way to do this would be with a deck of commercial playing cards. There are decks with more than 52 cards. Or better yet, use picture flash cards. Buy two decks and have him put the matched picture on top of the envelopes.

I'll calculate the odds of getting 5 of 10 from 80 unique cards in a bit. I doubt if they are 1 in 20,000,000.
 
Am I reading this correctly? He only wants to do one run-thru?
This isn't a test of psychic ability-it's a pull on a slot machine.
 
So, does he think that putting a couple of videos up on YouTube constitutes a "media profile"?

I fixed his link: http://www.maltatoday.com.mt/2005/10/02/tw/index.html
 
Came by this thread a few minutes or hours ago and felt like asking him directly via YouTube. Why not? I thought.

And he answered already. I'm sure he wouldn't mind me telling you what he said.

According to what he said, his claim was accepted, but it will take time to set up date and protocol.
 
I have a question for him..

Have you already tried this and got 5 out of 10?

If not why not...?

He could use a normal 52 card deck anyways why 80?
 
I am sure he will come up with some crap like 'I do it all the time', but he will provide no evidence. Please note the video is just one talking head done like an amateur. He even has flowers growing out his shoulder. Tip - Always ensure the background is plain.
If he was real he would post a video of a demonstration. Doubt if JREF will even accept his application.

Please ask him:

1) If he wouldn't mind dropping by this forum for a chat about his proposed protocol, etc.

2) If he minds if we just check that his application is REALLY in and accepted.

Yes? Thanks.

Lets make no assumptions. It's not hard to ask him. And maybe if someone links this forum, he may join us here.

After all, he doesn't need to provide any evidence for us. He does so for the JREF and that is sufficient. Although you may have a point regarding a demonstration on youtube. He is posting videos there anyway and videos showing great tricks are pretty successful. Maybe if we ask him to make one, he'll comply.

Edit: OK Zep, can do. Just thought you guys are registered at youtube anyway too. But seems not. ;) But that's not a problem. Will do today.
 
We would all be registered at YouTube because...?

...we want to watch videos of drunken idiots riding shopping carts down hills and into bushes at high speed in an effort to kill themselves?

...we want to watch Paris Hilton copulating?

...we want to see some twerp spout on for ages in an ill-lit room with some crazy monologue that is both inanely bizarre and boring at the same time?

Perhaps you overestimate us...

At least some of you.

Such videos aren't flagged.

That's not on youtube. But you can have a link via PM if you want to. And you don't need to be registered at the other site. ;)

Well, usually those are not flagged too.

But maybe you want to see two girls kissing each other passionately. Or watching a serious video with practical examples about how to massage a woman's breast to reduce the probability of lymphatic glands. ;)
