in the nineteenth century scientist

in the nineteenth century scientists become interested in the possibility that some people had the power to move a physical object without touching it. They named this power telekinesis and over the years several people have claimed to have it. In 1980 American James Hydrick became famous overnight after appearing on a TV show. Millions watched him as he made the pages of a book turn without touching them. But James Randi, an american magician, was sceptical. He knows the different tricks people use when they pretend to have psychic powers. Randi appeared on a live TV show with Hydrick in order to test his claims. He put small pieces of polystyrene around a book and then challenged Hydrick to turn the pages using telekinesis, without moving the polystyrene. Hydrick couldn`t do it Later. Hydrick publicly admitted that he had never had special powers. So, how did the pages move? Simple: he blew them! But he had practised blowing hard without moving his lips or chest.
