Superhuman: The Invisible Made Visible

Yes "shotgunning" is an excellent cold reading ruse. Electromagnetic waves exist. Human bodies leave residual heat. Transcranial EEGs can pick up brainwaves. If you shake the table, a suspended foil covered with glass will move. How any of this is meant to help a viewer connect the dots about the true nature of their own consciousness is beyond me. What I find appalling though is one of the "experts" idea of a control reading in an experiment regarding the pH of water. The host not knowing that the co2 from her breath will reduce the pH of the water, tries to mentally reduce the pH of water while sitting above and breathing on it. The DNA conductivity test that follows is laughable, both in apparatus and observations. The control readings are taken off of the same sample used to experiment with. 3 reading are taken and averaged. Each 'control' reading is observed in quick succession, and appears to reduce with each reading. So the conductivity seems to be increasing with time. Then more time passes as the "intervention" happens. If there was a control, that "intervention" did not happen on, I have no doubt that it would also show a change. As for the exploited children the film uses to bring home its point. Currently the mid-brain activation scam is a global pandemic. Exploiting both children and well meaning parents for financial gain. They condition children into performers, much like carnivals and circuses did to their boy wonders. Except there is a lot of money behind it, how much you ask? Enough so that you can buy a franchise to midbrain activation academy. Teaching children to lie has been a main stay of blindfold peeking, since illusionist realized they are too old to throw a tantrum or wriggle about like a toddler. if you don't believe me, google midbrain franchise. In this film the name may be different, the scam is the same. These people should be charged with child abuse and fraud. "If you open your mind too much, you brain might fall out" - Tim Minchin

This is a phenomenon of high iq, it is entrepreneurial types who tend to demonstrate psi, these folks are used to "mind over matter" IOW bending reality to their will without too much effort. I believe this is a real phenomenon but I also realize that the naysayers are upset because these folks are essentially "pulling rank" on the rest of us untalented masses without these powers. Just as there are people who are tone-deaf who can never become musicians, there are the majority of folk who can't do psi because they lack "the right stuff."

Great showing of what our conscience can do when open instead of closed minded.

This documentary took courage. Finally something that looks into who we really are, Spirits too.

There are a lot of reviews bashing the science of the film but I can assure you that EEG headsets can pick up your brainwaves and interpret them into thoughts (pattern recognition) and emotional states. Those can then be used to control generative music visual systems and image recall among many other things like controlling wheelchairs or speech computers.

Like a bad smell to the senses, this Documentary film is insulting to the Intellect. These charlatans could so easily be flawed with simple questions and/or basic tests that are never asked or tested. In order to call it real science you would also need an attempt to dissprove your own hypothesis. Don't get me wrong I'd love to believe in this stuff but there's a big difference between having an "open mind" and just being straight up "gullible".
