5 Reasons Why Long Island Medium Is Totally Fake

Long Island Medium star Theresa Caputo claims she can talk to dead people. She's not the first person to make this claim, but we don't need to talk to spirits to know it's false. That's how we know. Old Tricks If someone walked up to you on the street and pulled a coin out from behind your ear, you wouldn't be surprised. You would understand that it is just a cool trick. Basically, Caputo is pulling emotional coins from behind people's grieving hearts. Skeptics believe Caputo uses old-school psychic techniques. These include "cold reading," analyzing a subject's physical presence to make an educated guess about them, and "shooting," asking a large audience a vague question and waiting for a response: "Who had the problem with the legs?" ?" (crickets) He is often wrong When working with large audiences, there have been times when Caputo has started talking to the wrong person.

For some reason, the deceased doesn't stop her: "This is where I got confused when I went with the younger man earlier..." Members of Caputo's live audience have reported that she has failed more during live events than she. on TV. Disenchanted fans have even left heartbreaking messages on the Ticketmaster site after attending Caputo's live shows. "I was a Theresa Caputo believer and watched every one of her shows. My little daughter died this summer and I needed to believe in something. After tonight, I'm no

long

er a believer." Some contestants are so surprised by what Caputo gets right that they don't realize how much she gets wrong.

Correct guesses are simply more memorable than incorrect ones: "Did she have a problem with her legs before she passed away?" "Uuhhh...no." Nothing is negative Caputo defends herself by saying that she makes people feel better, which is true. Her shows are full of touching moments, but that's exactly why it's clear the show is

fake

. The living and the dead never exchange harsh feelings. Even if there were problems, the spirits are always forgiving: "What will the spirit do? They will bring you things that happened years ago, you know, to remind you of happy times." Perhaps dying gives souls a happier outlook, but that does not erase all problems.

Caputo says she asks her spirit guides to share only good things, unless a negative memory can lead to a positive breakthrough. Nothing new Caputo's conversations with the dead never provide anything new, but in real life people keep secrets. Are there no spirits who want to vent their souls, or at least brag about never having been caught? Caputo may have asked her spirit guides to only pass on shared memories, but others suggest that those guides are actually the show's staff. Skeptics also think that Caputo's assistants may also conduct background checks based on information in the tickets, or even eavesdrop on audience members.

This would be enough for a cursory investigation. Other clients say they have been interviewed by Caputo staff before meetings and that camera crews tour the house beforehand. Sometimes they even stage the house before filming. Caputo doesn't care if they don't believe him: "I don't believe, being a

medium

, that my job is to prove anything to anyone." Misuse of powers Why isn't Caputo doing something else with his powers? Sure, it's great to reconnect the dead with their living relatives. It's also not useful. If Caputo can really talk to the dead, how about we solve some murder investigations?

Caputo spends his time telling people that his grandparents really enjoyed those summer barbecues instead of exploring the mysteries of death. It would be much more interesting to see the dead name the person who murdered them. Thanks for watching! Subscribe to our YouTube channel to see more videos like the one you just watched.
