Interesting, that's for sure. We'll see how he reacts to the talcum powder requirement. :D Any chance of seeing scanned-in copies of those pictures he sent you?

(Btw, the link is empty. Here's a corrected link. )

(edited to add corrected link)
 
I seem to recall Randi (or someone) testing some guy who had a similar claim. There was a picture of this guy, with his shirt off, with a number of spoons on his chest. Since he was a somewhat...corpulent man, his chest was not a vertical surface.

When asked to do the same thing, but leaning forward, he said something to the effect of "The power doesn't work when I'm leaning forward."
 
From Mr. Ferenc's application: "...I will hold with my chest in a vertical position..."

And then I looked at the pictures...

Obviously some strange new definition of the word "vertical" of which I wasn't previously aware.

What's paranormal about this?

I too have a special ability. I can make spoons stick to nose after breathing on them.
 
I recall a magnetic guy in the Guinness records, who was considered to be unexplainable, but accepted by them as legitimate.

I'd love to see the more impressive guys get tested
This guy has one or two good pics, but most of them look pathetic...

And several of them are shown at least twice :rolleyes:.

Also, notice how several of them totally lack references to what direction is down, while several of those that have it are skewed to make it look like the holding angle is steeper than it really is, for instance the ones where he carries a door.

I noticed with the larger objects against his head, he always uses the side of his head. As in "ear", as in "suction", I suspect. :)
 
Just a thought, but I notice all the photos he's using the same side of his face. Isn't it possible he's got a plate in his head?
 
plate, maybe

But no brain.


===========================
Apparently this kind of thing is genetic, passed-on from father to son in certain magnetic families!

Looking at the pictures, I notice that not all the objects are made of metal. I wonder why he uses the term magnetism.

Sounds better than sweaty and sticky?

The photos were from his website. Go there and you'll see what we saw when we opened the envelope he sent.
