Amazing Randi - Chief Skeptic

This article talks about James Randi, otherwise known as "Amazing Randi." In addition to being an accomplished magician and escape artist, Randi is best known as the man who challenges claims of paranormal and extraordinary events and exposes fakes. He’s long been a thorn in the sides of psychic Uri Geller and faith healer Peter Popoff.
