Here's an interview where an Australian magician confronts a very known paranormalist who was born in some small country... He mentions it there, but I forgot which one.

It starts with the magician showing how everything could be done using simple magic tricks, and then he talks with the one who claims to have special powers. The interview itself looks like it could have been a parody, very funny stuff!
