Reading minds, predicting
e future and walking on coals
are not as mystical as they seem,
a professional magician told stu
dents Monday night.
Danny Korem, in a presenta-
on sponsored by MSC Great
Issues, explained mystical feats
redone by tricks, none are real-
the psychic phenomena they
em to be.
Korem, author of “The Fak
irs,” began his presentation by
emonstrating several card
ricks, sleight-of-hand tricks and
uind reading maneuvers.
Korem used volunteers out
Bf the audience to help him per
form number guessing games
nd disappearing card tricks.
He then confessed he had not
erformed any psychic feats.
Everything you saw this
evening from top to bottom was
a trick,” he said.
Predicting the future was one

Korem explained.
t has benefited [ He used the OUIJA board as
an example. 1 he board is not
moved by special powers, but by
iierve impulses from the brain,
Korem said.
“The original reason for
rophesies was to give hope to
Christians that their God was in

aid.
Although Korem does not be-
ieve any one person can cause
wychic phenomena, he does be-
ieve in supernatural powers,
upernatural powers are those
lot controlled by people, but
ather by God, he said.
He cited The Holy Bible as

Statistically, for eight of the
approximately 20,000 prophe
cies in The Bible to be correct,
Korem said, the odds are 10 to
the 17th power, but more have
come true, he said.
Another “phenomena”
attacked by Korem was “fire
walking.” Anyone can walk over
hot coals with bare feet, he said.
“Coal is a poor conductor of
heat,” he said. “If you take no
more than four steps not lasting
more that .7 seconds each, the
coals won’t hurt you.”
Korem said he had spent the
past sixteen months working on
a television special, “Psychic
Confessions“. In this documen
tary, he exposed an “embryonic
(Jim) Jones (Charles) Manson”
— James Heidrich.
Heidrich has professed to
have psychic powers that made
things move at will and gave him
super human strength.
He was considered dangerous
by the Salt Lake City police,
Korem said.
Heidrich later confessed he
was a fake — the first filmed ex
pose and confession of a leading
psychic, Korem said.
