Your formula is neither good nor bad. I just don't think it's thought out very well. As an entertainer you can do whatever you want. But if you're a mentalist you should at least give some serious thought to what many of us have spent decades learning.

Not sure about this one. Geller claimed multiple abilities and was believed by millions. He demonstrated remote viewing, telepathy, telekinesis and teleportation. He could bend metal, dowse for water and find oil. He could make a football move from the penalty spot in a Scotland v England match-damn him!!! He seemed to be claiming multiple abilities all related to an enhanced use of the brain, and he convinced a large part of the western world that he was the real deal.

He also once said he was in contact with aliens from the planet Hoova, pretty much freeing him up to claim anything he felt like. Alternatively he frequently claimed that he didn't understand his abilities at all.
His was a purely psychic persona, which offers the broadest number of possible claims. (It is also one that is most likely to invite immediate skepticism and exposure, which also accounted for much of Geller's fame.) The fact is, though, that he was primarily known for his metal bending. |

Uri Geller. Certainly new how to get ink and promote himself. Hard to knock success.
Personally, not my cup of tea. Best wishes, Scott
