My Favorite People Pt.1
James “The Amazing” Randi
If you have never heard of James Randi you are missing out, I personally refer to him as the skeptic wizard. Randi is a magician who has over the last several decades focused on trying to debunk psychics, faith healers, astrologists and more.
If you have never heard of him, go to youtube and look him up right now. One of the main reasons James Randi is one of my favorite people is down to the James Randi million dollar challenge; this is a challenge posed by the educational foundation set up by Randi that if anyone can prove to have any form of supernatural ability they will win one million dollars. In the 50 years this challenge has been ongoing nobody has claimed the prize.
Randi is amazing and deserves to be praised for the work he has done for over half a century. James “The Amazing” Randi YOU ROCK!
