Have you heard or seen on videos people who can cure illness by inserting their fingers inside the patient's body, taking out something inside, and the incision closes automatically? They say its called psychic surgery. I heard there are a lot in Southeast Asia. If you have an iccurable illness, will you make an effort to travel far and search for a psychic surgeon?

I believe some, very few people can actually perform and that most are scams. I heard about real cures. There's this healer that actually walked all over my back, I was terrified, thinking he was going to break something. It wasn't that big of pain but he healed. I'm almost sure it was him.

i think mentally surgery and those that are directed only mentaly are good, now those that requires cuts opening the patient it's dangerous, i read many news of scams like this, now those that are mental or the "doctor" just touch the person have better feedback, people didn't get hurted and many say they got cured

I've seen a few videos. If these people really had such great powers, why would they need to touch the patient? They can apparently see perfectly well through the skin, but can't do everything psychically. It's a big show only, completely fake.

There's no such thing as psychic surgery. Every one of those people who claim to be psychic surgeons has been proven to be a fake. But gullible people will keep falling for scams, no matter how many times they're disproved. It's been a long time since I read anything about this, but some researchers explained exactly how the so-called psychic surgeons did what they did. Most of it is just sleight of hand, like a magician uses. They distract you so that you think you see something that's not really there.
