Why isn't James Randi on "Ghost Hunters"?

Question

The TAPS crew could shut him up,scare the pants off him and win a million bucks in one episode.

Answer 1

Sorry to burst your bubble,

That show is scripted and the participants are paid for their time.

I'm not saying ghosts aren't real, just that, that particular show IS scripted.

Answer 2

You're kidding, right? That show is on the Sci-Fi channel for a reason.

Answer 3

If James Randi were on their crew, they would never detect spirit activity. It's been proven over and over that spirits can feel the negative aura of skeptics and it lowers their energy level so that they cannot manifest themselves. Then what would you have? A couple of plumbers and Randi stumbling around in the dark.

Answer 4

ah, children, once again it's time for mommy to explain the difference between fact and fiction.

fiction:  pretty much everything on TV, including half the news

fact:  mommy makes dandy bread pudding!

FYI, James Randi is like a cop.  Cops see the worst of people's behavior and often get jaded to believe there really is NO good in people.  Randi has seen so many fakers profiting off people that he doesn't believe anything is real.

Answer 5

My guess is because he doesn't have the media savvy or charismatic personality equal to that of two full time professional plumbers that talked the Sci-Fi channel into giving them their own show.

Answer 6

He would probably get cramps from all of the eye rolling.

Answer 7

He is afraid Jason would kick his **** if he said his usual rant

Answer 8

What a hoot that would been, but would he go on  ? It would be hard to get scared when someone is says its only gas .LOL
