In the dimly lit clinics of the Philippines, psychic surgeons perform the impossible: with only their bare hands, they appear to plunge deep into a patient’s body, pulling out bloody, cancerous tumours before astonished onlookers. The skin is left unbroken, the wound sealed as if by a miracle. But is this a genuine medical marvel, a divine gift of healing, or could it instead be a very clever trick?
The Effect
The astonishing spectacle that leaves the public - and often law enforcement - in awe. These effects may appear to be truly impossible, and the work of magic, but behind each one lies an ingenious solution.
The Method
The secret techniques and misdirection that remain concealed from the untrained eye. Will Lora and Barry be able to bring these hidden workings to the fore, and reveal the smoke and mirrors behind the real-life mysteries they examine?
Lora Jones
We discuss lots of bizarre methods.
This story has it all: cats, excrement, and an unlikeable main character.
Barry Jones

I hope we finally solved this crazy mystery, once and for all!
