Psi wheel is favorite toy of psychokinesis practicioners. They believe that wheel is moving because mind power. Skeptics know that this is only fake, moves are caused by air turbulences and heat from hands.
But how explain this?:

Banachek once said that when he participated in project alpha, one of the scientists place psi wheel under glass and ask if banachek could do something whith that. And he rotated this wheel.

For me that effect is the best form of telekinesis.

The link in the video description tells how it's done.

Yes it does, if you read it, the article gives a detailed explanation of how that video was made.

Spoiler alert - it was faked.

Cool trick though. Psi wheel could be a fun idea for a presentation.

Actually the explanation could also be fictitious. We have no way to really know. Smile

This is one of those methods that is really only suitable for a one-off video presentation. I could not imagine a professional worker using it (for a myriad of reasons).

I'll stick to one of the impromptu methods, or by using the usual gaffes.

Please check regularly if you are becoming the type of magician Jerry Seinfeld jokes about. (This applies to mentalists as well.)
