Celebrity psychic James Van Praagh turns down one-million dollar contest with James Randi Foundation to prove his abilities!
Celebrity “psychic medium” James Van Praagh made the news again, on August 25, 2011. He declined a $1,000,000 offer made by the James Randi Educational Foundation, JREF, to prove he has psychic abilities. James Randi is a stage magician and ultimate skeptic. The Challenge made its debut in 1964 when Randi offered $1,000 of his own money to the first person who could prove the paranormal existed under controlled conditions. When he founded the JREF in 1996 to promote critical thought about claims of the paranormal, the ante was raised to $1,000,000.
