Subject: Do you guys think this guy is for real? Tue Dec 01, 2009 2:49 am
His name is Todd White and he seems to be very convincing , yet they always are. One reason I kind of think this guy might be for real is bc on another video he was wearing a 420 shirt and he says dude every other word plus he has dreads. Now are these things really relevant for me to believe this guy. Yes they are, lol.
Im curios to what you guys think. Oh yeah he is an evangelist btw, wait now I just changed my mind.

I would love to see these people a couple of days later to see if he was just doing the mind control on them.

Great point. A follow up video is definitely needed.

Hmm, depends on what you mean by for real I guess. I think the guy and his assistant probably believe he's channeling "God", but my gut reaction is that the power of suggestion is strong, especially in a street crowd w/ many strangers like that. I noticed the guy and his assistant were basically putting words in their volunteers' mouths, like, "You feel that right?".
Then again, if the power of suggestion/placebo type affect is responsible for whatever these people are feeling, then I suppose all you can really say is that he's effective so wtf if it works right? Probably just a testament to the power of positive thinking although I wonder if he's tried his thing on more severe conditions which would have more credibility I'd think, as it's probably not too hard to get somebody to feel (at least momentarily) some relief from a spained ankle through positive thinking is all I'm sayin.
Also, and I really hate to bag on anyone's hair, but those dreads are awful!
