What I find curious is that I have seen film of Geller bending a spoon but using none of the fake tricks involved. How is that explained? It is all well and good saying how he could have done it but that doesn't mean he cheated?

Geller has been caught cheating several times, not just with spoon bending, but with other tricks, too. Just check out http://www.randi.org/ and do a search on "Uri Geller" for more info.

As for having seen a "film of Geller bending a spoon but using none of the fake tricks involved" - I can promise you that sleight-of-hand is all that is needed to create the bending and melting illusion. It has to do with the way the spoon is handled, and takes great artistry, and many hours of practice.

Paul Hayward.
