Britain's Vanhargen Twins fool Penn & Teller.
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.

Sad news from the world of Mentalism....
RIP Max Maven (72).
Mr Jinx Says: Long before Derren Brown appeared on the scene Max was baffling people with his incredible mentalism. I had the pleasure of meeting him on several occasions, a true gent who will be deeply missed.

I’ve just heard that there’s a new book coming out featuring Uri Geller. Bend It Like Geller, celebrates 50 years of spoon bending. Geller personally helped with the book, it will be interesting to see if he’ll stick with his ‘I’m genuine’ stance or whether he’ll finally come clean.
244 Pages. Hard bound. Release Date TBC Price TBC
Full details to follow.
