Psychiatrist's Paranormal Ability to be Tested by James Randi

During a summer of superhero blockbusters, Dallas psychiatrist Colin A. Ross, M.D. is perfecting a superpower of his own. Dr. Ross' application to the $1 Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge has been received by the James Randi Educational Foundation.

Dr. Ross can make a tone sound out of a speaker using nothing but an energy beam he sends out through his eyes.

The $1 million prize serves as a challenge to anyone who can show, under proper observing conditions, evidence of any paranormal, supernatural, or occult power or event. The James Randi Educational Foundation states in its Challenge rules that he is only interested in a demonstration of the claim. He does not want theories about how the paranormal claim works.

Therefore, Dr. Ross is not required to explain how his demonstration of the human eyebeam works -- only that it does work.
