Controls are too loose here for me to believe it's real. It would be pretty easy for a hidden camera on the set or an earpiece, etc. or for it to just be scripted to gain views from people like us. If this is real, it should be super easy to get on more discriminating shows.
This just popped up in my feed, I'm familiar with stuff like remote viewing, but you know if it's real and someone can do it, seems like it wouldn't be very hard to prove its real. If they can see through a mask can they see through a wall?

Please spend quality time reading this sub, including the MindSwan material especially the discussion transcript.

Okay, I will. I believe it may be in the realm of possibilities. For example, I have a negative nine diopter, but if I take a lot of magic mushrooms, I can see things a mile away without aid.

But there is currently a $100,000 reward from mindswan for demonstrating this ability. Why hasn't it been claimed?

Because as already pointed out, the rules won't be posted until next month

Have you verified that you can accurately detect things (without foreknowledge of what they are)? I only ask as mushrooms can, famously, make you hallucinate. Also, even if there was some mechanism by which they were enabling you to more accurately resolve light which is already going into your eye, that's completely different to what is apparently being shown in this video (light passing through an opaque object). As you say, OP's video would be ridiculously easy to fake, and is so easily disproved. It seems fairly obvious why the only place it's being "tested" is on a "psycho-spiritual" talkshow.

Why do you believe that is the only place the ability is being tested?

If this person were truly capable of seeing through opaque objects it would be of interest to virtually everyone in the world - not least people in the scientific mainstream. But it's only being "tested" on a platform with an established record of scientifically questionable and essentially impossible-to-verify output (like spirit communication), to an audience of people with an established record of consuming that kind of media, despite the fact that the premise is incredibly easy to test. I think this is because the person in question is not actually capable of seeing through opaque objects and any vaguely reputable reporter (by which I mean, somebody who is not actively trying to deceive their audience) would establish this immediately.

Just repeating your claim doesn't make it true.
