I am told Uri Geller just used to say “Bend, Bend, Bend” in his mind and spoons would bend spontaneously.

I learnt to do it differently but it’s still a great party trick. Late in 2006, I was watching a DVD on Spoonbending – as I watched I started to bend the spoon I held in my hand and I haven’t stopped since. It’s become a bit of an addiction really!

Since that time I have learnt simpler and more effective ways of bending metal spoons and I can bend them quickly without force, twist them around and even break them in two - but I do need to touch them to do so.

I found that 9 out of 10 people can do it (spoonbending) with practice and some meditation and energy experience.
