UM-Bot Posted October 1, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2014 The Israeli entertainer claims that the recent spate of bending iPhones could be down to psychic energy. Geller is no stranger to bending objects having made a career out of his alleged ability to bend spoons with the power of his mind.

Kiltedmusician Posted October 1, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Hey, Apple and other companies should jump on this idea. "So you see, as proven by reknown psychic Mystiqipants that fear of Taco Joe brand burritos is what created the right environment for hepatitus to flourish. It's not Taco Joe's fault that someone was worried about a perfectly good burrito." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundew Posted October 1, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm thinking it has more to do with fat tubs of lard sitting on a device that will bend when 70 pounds of pressure is applied. If you are going to spend that much money on a phone, buy a hard shell case to protect it people. "Psychic energy," hahahahahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundew Posted October 1, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) I believe at one Mr. Geller was unable to duplicate his psychic talents on camera for a scientific test. Edited October 1, 2014 by Sundew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highdesert50 Posted October 1, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) The bent iPhone phenomenon is brought about by app-oplexy, that is, becoming overwhelmed to mental incapacity due to the sheer number of apps appearing on the tablet-sized device. The result is an individual who is totally bent-out-of-shape as is the tablet-sized phone when it is shoved into the rear pocket ... new definition for sit-on-it or perhaps get-bent.

The result is an individual who is totally bent-out-of-shape as is the tablet-sized phone when it is shoved into the rear pocket ... new definition for sit-on-it or perhaps get-bent. The bending I-Phone fix will be to purchase a protective, rigid plastic cover for the phone at $20 or more. That way you'll have to clip it on your belt because it will no longer fit in your pocket.

Ze Tomes Posted October 1, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Can you afford to be so profoundly naive? This guy was a fraud at 80s fooling everyone earning tons of money, subsequently debunked by James Randi, falling in the shadows. Now, at modern times he's a recycled "illusionist" with shiny teeth contracted by Apple to promote by viral marketing the new iphone, certainly earning even more tons of money! Any doubts about the integrity of this guy type "James Randi exposes Uri Geller and Peter Popoff" at youtube.

AbyssWalker Posted October 2, 2014 #20 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Uri geller should start his own million dollar challenge, those that can provide proof that iPhone can bend without psychic powers will win the challenge. Why are people sub consciously trying to bend their new iphones with psychic powers I wonder? Why doesnt it work with other thin phones ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shayde Posted October 2, 2014 #22 Share Posted October 2, 2014 So.... These phones are bending because of all the excitement from them being sold? And not because of the build quality? Let me ponder this.... Pretty sure it's the latter, not the former! But hark, Geller does invite the makers to let him - and now doubt get paid for the help he'll give - explain just how this "energy" is created to bend a phone. Nice of him... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOutlawTorn Posted October 2, 2014 #23 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Oh hahahah!

Bendy Demon Posted October 2, 2014 #24 Share Posted October 2, 2014 The fact that there are still hordes of people who take this decades-long fraud seriously says something about society; and it is not anything good either. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
