Do paranormal abilities exist?
We like to think that nothing exists that we can’t explain. Modern science rejects anything that can’t be objectively observed, tested, and proven. And that includes any so-called paranormal psychological phenomena, like telepathy, ESP and telekinesis. But for decades, the CIA studied clairvoyance and found instances of ‘remote viewing’ that were more accurate than random chance. So might we have been too quick to dismiss things we can’t prove? Could some people really have extraordinary capabilities that can’t be explained? In this episode of Decoded, adapted from the Arabic series Dahaleez, Amr Waked uncovers something which may leave people feeling uncomfortable.
