'Based on preliminary investigations of Uri Geller, I cannot establish fraud. The powers of this man are a phenomenon which theoretical physics cannot yet explain'
Dr Friedbert Karger {Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, Munich}

'The Geller Effect is one of those "para" phenomena which changed the world of physics. What the most outstanding physicists of the last decades of this century could grasp only as theoretical implication, Uri brought it as fact into everyday life'
Dr Walter A. Frank {Bonn University, Bonn}

'Metal objects were bent or divided by Geller in circumstances such as to prove conclusively that the phenomena were genuine and para-normal'
Dr A.R.G. Owen {New Horizons Research Foundation, Toronto, Canada}

'There is no logical explanation for what Geller did here, but I don't think logic is what necessarily makes new in-roads in science'
Dr Thomas Coohill, {Western Kentucky University, Physics Dept, Bowling Green}

'Geller has bent my ring in the palm of my hand without ever touching it. Personally, I have no scientific explanation for the phenomena'
Wernher von Braun, {NASA scientist}

'The Geller method of breaking steel is unlike anything described in the [Metallurgical] literature, from fatigue fractures -195 degrees to brittle fractures +600 degrees Centigrade... Why is metal bending important? Simply because we do not understand it'
Professor John B. Hasted {Birkbeck College, University of London}

'The evidence based on metallurgical analysis of fractured surfaces [produced by Geller] indicates that a paranormal influence must have been operative in the formation of the fractures'
Dr Wilbur Franklin {Physics Department, Kent State University}

'As a result of Geller's success in this experimental period, we consider that he has demonstrated his paranormal perceptual ability in a convincing and unambiguous manner' {The results of these experiments were published in the respected British journal Nature, Volume 251, No. 5476}
Dr Harold Puthoff and Russell Targ {Stanford Research Institute}

'The bends in metal objects {made by Geller} could not have been made by ordinary manual means'
Dr Albert Ducrocq {Telemetry Laboratory, Foch Hospital, Suren, France}

'Geller altered the lattice structure of a metal alloy in a way that cannot be duplicated. There is no present scientific explanation as to how he did this' {This is the first research related to parapsychology conducted at a US Government facility to have been released for publication by the US Department of Defense}
Eldon Byrd {US Naval Surface Weapons Center, Maryland}

'I have failed to conceive of any means of deception in the static PK tests with Geller, nor have magicians I have consulted'
William E. Cox {Institute of Parapsychology, Durham, North Carolina}

'"The scientific community has been put on notice that there is something worthy of their attention and scrutiny in the possibilities of ESP." With these words the respected British journal, Nature, called on scientists to join or refute millions of non-scientists to believe human consciousness has more capabilities for real perception than the five senses'
New York Times editorial

'I tested Uri Geller myself under laboratory controlled conditions, and saw with my own eyes the bending of a key which was not touched by Geller at any time. There was a group present during the experiment who all witnessed the key bending in eleven seconds to an angle of thirty degrees. Afterwards we tested the key in a scientific laboratory, using devices such as electron microscopes and X-rays, and found that there were no chemical, manual or mechanical forces involved in the bending of the key.'
Professor Hellmut Hofmann {Vienna, Austria}

'Uri Geller is extraordinarily gifted in telepathy'
Professor Mittenecker {Psychologist, University of Graz, Austria}
