Martin hart writes: The Vanhargen Twins performed a telepathic routine on the hit TV show Penn & Teller Fool Us, baffling the world’s most knowledgeable magicians, Penn & Teller. In the performance, the twins, Poppy & Sasha, took on the roles of Telepathic Athletes, (Telepathletes) competing to be the fastest senders of thought messages in the world’s first Telepathic Olympics. Competing in three telepathy events, the twins managed to communicate random information with each other without talking and with lightning speed. Penn & Teller had no explanation for what they had just witnessed.
The twins flew to Las Vegas from their hometown of Gloucester, determined to win the prestigious ‘Fool Us’ trophy and star in Penn & Teller’s Las Vegas stage show at the Rio Hotel & Casino, the star prize for fooling the famous duo. Anyone who succeeds wins the right to perform with Penn & Teller in their celebrated show at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. The Vanhargen twins returned home with the famous ‘Fool Us’ trophy and will appear on stage with Penn & Teller in Las Vegas very soon.
Mr Jinx Says: I'm also from Gloucester but have never heard of the twins. I'll have to look them up.

An exciting new book, massive in scale, "Bend It Like Geller" celebrates the 50th Anniversary of Uri Geller's Spoon Bending effect. It's something that has, over the decades, permeated society--being celebrated in magazine articles, books, movies, and even song lyrics.
This new book revisits the exciting break-out years of Geller's early performances and dissects the world-wide controversy that they created. We also document the evolution of methods, developed by magicians to replicate Geller's effect, and learn how radically they've changed. All these techniques are taught in detail with over 100 fine illustrations by Ever Elizalde.
Psychology is also explored with chapters penned by Pablo Amira, Richard Busch, David Berglas, Drew McAdam, Alain Nu, Steve Shufton, Richard Osterlind and Peter Turner.
All is joyously celebrated with stunning photos, many never seen before.
At a massive 244 pages, hardbound, and printed on the finest paper, this book delivers everything you need to know about Metal Bending! Quite literally, it's 50-years worth of magic between two covers.
"Friends, I never thought that 50 years after I first bent a spoon on TV it would still be such a powerful phenomenon! My natural ability began a whole culture, astonishing people the world over and mimicked by magicians to this day. Ben Harris & all who contributed to your stunning book, love to you all." Uri Geller
