Has anyone else seen this article? Are these people for real or am I living in some kind of paranoid dream world?

LMAO!!! JWs are soooo superstitious!!!
The image of a yogi sleeping on a bed of nails or walking on hot coals may appear to be a hoax to some and a joke to others. But these are common occurrences in India, as is the practice of standing on one leg while staring directly at the sun for hours and breath control that allows a person to be buried in sand for long periods of time. In June 1995, The Times of India reported that a three-and-a-half-year-old girl lay in a trance as a car weighing more than 1,600 pounds [750 kg] was allowed to run over her abdomen. To the amazement of the crowd, when she awoke she was totally unharmed. The report added: "It was sheer yogic power."
Without a doubt, no normal human is capable of performing any of these tasks
Puuuuuuuulease!!!
People have been saying that the bOrg is loosing all of it's intelligent people (brain drain)... but I had no idea it had gotten this bad. This is an article reminiscent of the ones where they said that aluminum was deadly, immunizations caused disease, and disease caused germs (not the other way around).
All of the "supernatural" feats described in the article can be performed using very old and understood magician tricks.
