Magic: is it actually real, a clever illusion or just a load of made-up bollocks?
Despite it being more of a myth, millions of wacky Michael Jackson fans are wondering if their idol will one day reappear in a puff of smoke with the seven of hearts in his palm. Anyone with a grain of intelligence will know that poor old Michael won't be coming back any time soon.
But tell that to Uri Geller, who was roped in to help prove that a conspiracy theory whipped up by teenager Tom Pickering – claiming that Michael Jackson is alive – could be plausible and not a load of twoddle. Though we assume it is.
The never-ending saga that is the death of Michael Jackson has been going on for longer than anyone imagined. After all, his body has been cut up and dissected, buried in a coffin with gold foil wrapped around it and his chum Dr. Conrad Murray has been accused of manslaughter. That's right Uri Geller. Ruddy manslaughter – that means that someone is dead.
Even David Gest and June Sarpong hosted a show with rubbish dead people talker Derek Acorah, where Derek talked to Michael Jackson’s ghost because he is dead. They weren't able to afford Bruce Willis. In a special Sky One live s?ance, Derek took some emotional unstable Michael Jackson fans, creepy stalker fans and fans that had plastic surgery like their hero to recreate that wonky nose look. And guess what? It worked.
In the amazing one hour time slot dedicated to the seance, Derek managed to speak to Michael Jackson. Did he ask the all important questions that all Michael Jackson fans wanted to hear? No, instead he passed on stupid messages. Utterly rubbish. He never even made Derek Acorah do the moonwalk or touch his crotch.
So, Uri Geller. What's he all about then? If you have spoons, then you'd better chuffing run as he makes them bend like crazy. And that's all he does. Seriously, he didn't appear on a reality show or bum a famous person. He makes metal objects bend. But he was Michael Jackson?s friend, and he clings on to this fact. Kind of what dog shit does on a fresh pair of white Adidas trainers.
Anything involving his late mate would make him instantly run to the Geller-copter to see what the fuss was about. This week sees the spoon-bender come to face with young conspiracy theorist Tom Pickering, who believes something was a bit fishy about Jackson?s cardiac arrest and weak pulse. He told getreading.co.uk
?It didn't seem to add up because that is not the kind of thing you associate with a cardiac arrest and when I started to look into it, there were other people thinking the same thing. I was never a huge fan of Michael Jackson although I always appreciated his music but the circumstances surrounding his death seem too suspicious. If you listen to This Is It backwards, it refers to how he wants to leave the world but he is still alive. It is a clear message.?
So when the spoon-bender met Tom Pickering, did he bang heads with the youngster and explain to him that Michael is dead? No, he released this stupid generic statement:
?Tom has some very interesting viewpoints and some of the evidence is very compelling but there are always conspiracy theories around legends like Michael.?
Legend? It's not like he was a pirate or something. we're not writing books about him called Michael Jackson And The Curse Of The Emerald Seagull. Come on Uri, sort it out. Or at least learn to bend some forks.
Think it's still a load of monkey bollocks like us? Well check out the website that was set up by Tom Pickering. Convincing, huh?

who do you think you call wacky? did yor mother fail to raise you in a proper way and teach you manners? you can call your uneducated self wacky. Haven’t you heard about lawsuits?
daniela7979 says
hey wacky you say someone else… type your brother!!! we are believer michael jackson fans! and don’t call him in this way!!
Craig says
How about instead of doing the usual and writing a knee jerk article in response to well researched theory! Try actually doing some research and you’ll realise that more to michael Jackson supposed death than the majority realise! That will be because they swallow the BS that today’s media outlets publish! If you actually think about it there are plenty if reasons why it’s feasible that mj has faked his death ( gor whatever reason) and given a big middle finger to the press and all the people who tried to destroy him! Just imagine the scene mj cones back explains a hoax and the reasons for it, and the world wakes up, stops beleiving in the BS the media tellls us! I for one saw the cracks in the story back in July and have followed things closely , I believe michael Jackson is more than likely still alive! True enough he may well have passed! Bur don’t be so wick to dismiss anyone who suggests anything other than the official story! Remember people once thought the earth was flat! Anything is possible in this infinite universe! Open your minds and hearts, think for yourselves and don’t let jerks like the gut that wrote this article mould your opinion!
JJAM52 says
Matthew, with comments like “Legend? It’s not like he’s a pirate or something”, you must be about 10 yrs old, right? There is nothing wrong with what Uri Geller said.
There are MANY inconsistensies involving Michael’s LIFE AND DEATH, and I would believe the death hoax theory before I would believe his death was an accident!
sal says
michael is free now.
let him be. whether he is alive or dead, he deseves some peace. its so sad that we can’t let go of him… we never will. we need him. even the ppl who lived to try & destroy him… we all saw ourselves in michael afterall. whether what you saw was childish, brilliant, sick, or noble… manipulative, naiive, genius, crazy, sexy, guilty, innocent, dead or alive… depends entirely on you.michael is in the eye of the beholder.
MJsoldestfan says
One day????? He’s stupid now, lmao!!!
I suggest you, my friend, take your head outta ur rear end and smell the roses. all ur doing now is pissing people off with your drivel, but then again that’s what the media does…………LIE!!!!
jenjen says
MJ is alive and he loves me because I care about the world I can feel his vibe, its not like the macaulay culkin vibe mjs vibe is a nicer cleaner sort of warm fuzzy vibe you get while watching saterday morning cartoons.
Shamone says
Whom do you call wacky? The ones who can see a great artists and a kind human beyond the tabloid junk? I would rather say the people who believe in trash are wacky.. May be like you!
jhon bryan says
oo totoo yan
saralee says
Contrary to what Laidlow claims in this report, Michael Jackson’s fans do NOT believe he is somehow alive, though they might wish he were. Even a cursory review of comments by his fans all over YouTube proves unequivocally that Jackson’s fans are fully aware that he died prematurely because he mistakenly trusted his life to the care of a doctor who killed him just as surely as if he had placed a gun to Jackson’s head and pulled the trigger.
Anne says
Im sick of you keep writing awful things about Michael. If you dont like him fine but did no-one ever teach you respect? If you can’t write anything nice then don’t write anything at all. His name is MICHAEL JACKSON who the hell said you could call him “Wacko”?This just shows what a stupid immature mind you have.
wacky2 says
I wanna hurt your uglee. I wanna punch you. I wanna stand on you foot. I wanna giv3e you chinese burn. LMFAO Epic Fail To You.
Helena says
Uri Geller was NO friend to Michael Jackson. He just wanted to bask in reflected glory and get publicity for himself. He exploited him, made fun of him – told him he was going to get him to the moon and then after he died he laughed at him being “gullible” – and introduced him, for payment, to the snake Bashir who manipulated his so called ‘documentary’ to make him look bad and cut out the bits that told the truth.
I agree there are weird things about his death, but I do think he has indeed passed. The conspiracy is about what happened and who wanted him dead.
zai says
You are so stupid.
susanne diane says
Hey. Dismissive person. You need to recheck your snide self-satisfied self. Attacking a kid who is doing this in good faith. You really reveal more about yourself in this piece than about anyone else. You can believe what you like, and guess what, others can believe what THEY like. People are trying to find the truth for themselves, and that takes guts. There is quite a few legitimate questions about the circumstances of the 25h of June. What ever the truth is one needs to keep an open mind. I find it strange that you think it is cool or something to attack people for simply posing questions – what are you afraid of?
SSSS says
LISTEN, PATHETIC LOSER, IT IS A “TWADDLE” NOT “TWODDLE”.
BELIEVE ME, MICHAEL JACKSON’S FANS ARE MUCH MORE INTELLIGENT, SMART,AND EDUCATED THAN YOU WOULD DREAM TO BE YOURSELF. MORAN !!!! WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE? NONSENSE! THAT’S RIGHT. NOBODY! MISERABLE, LIMITED MINDED INSECT!
SSSS says
AND YOU LEAVE MICHAEL ALONE!!! IT IS NOT YOUR F….G BUSINESS!
GO GET LIFE IF YOU CAN, I DOUBT SO!
laura says
You , such a poor IDIOT ! You/re a true legend,certainly , your stupidity proof that.
They're not all locked up yet says
My word, it’s like a nuthouse picnic on here. Cheers all, very funny. My favourite has to be the one who says ‘if you can’t write anything nice don’t write anything at all’ then follows it with several personal insults :D
elenatroya says
SHOW SOME RESPECT FOR PEOPLE AND OUR BELIEVES, TRY TO INVESTIGATE AS MUCH AS THE GREAT HARD WORK TOM HAS DONE. IF YOU RESEACH BET YOU
Bubbles says
If, as many comments on here state, there is something in this rumour and the King of Pop ™ faked his own death and now lives in a chimp-filled hideaway somewhere this raises two vital questions:
1: How could someone who is/was so wonderfully perfect do such a cruel thing to his fans?
2: How could someone who was/is so perfectly wonderful allow a friend to stand trial for a manslaughter that did not occur?
Either Jackson is dead or he’s a bit of a git.
daniel hill says

YOU ARE TALKING IN THE BEGGINING ABOUT SOME INTELLIGENCE BUT YOU ARE REALLY NOT A PROTOTYPE OF INTELLIGENCE HONEY!!!
I think that if you studied Michael Jackson deepply as a person, you would never say that he is WACKY and that his fans are WACKY! Instead of millions others, MJ was THE ONE, who used his extreme power of his fame to make something better in this world, inspire and influence people in better way, help, bring joy to peoples lifes..and yes he had the power to change some thing!! He had huge positive impact on this world..REAL PERSONALITY REAL MUSICAL GENIUS..BUT OFCOURSE!!That everyone who is ever trying to go against the movement of our wolrd become a target for critics!
Dont be manipulated by the made up shits that are all over around and think!!BYE

Cate says
Are you suggesting that all Michael Jackson fans are whacky or unstable? That’s just plain ludicrous. The fans that insist Michael is still among living range in age. The younger ones are being taken in by those that want to pertetrate this silly notion for their own gain. It appears that Uri is going down that same road. Not a good thing. Your article is angry and you sound like a 10 year old so full of yourself that you’re unable to expand your mind. It needs expanding. However old you are, you’re clearly young. Hopefully in time you’ll gain some perspective beyond your current dribble.
Cate says
@booboo
Michael was not a peodofile. Believe what ever you want but at least learn how to spell the word. Do your homework.
Cate says
@saralee
I think you’re out of the loop dear. Many of Michael’s fans believe he is alive. The numbers aren’t as high as they were though. The first and worst site went down last year. It was a terribly hateful, violent place and taken over but a couple of nutters for sure, who were from that forum. The old forum was better reading I think…if you could get by the violence and it was a great one=stop place for all the news. Tom Pickering has done a lot of work and so have others. But the fact is most of the conclusions are based on topics they have limited or no knowledge of to begin with. So they are baseless. Maybe Tom and the others will someday do their studies and become great writers. It’s a selfish act to try and expose someone you claim to love so much not to mention shaming the entire family. But they chose to overlook that and still do no matter how many times you tell them. It would be too late now anyway. Why do I follow their chatter? Study.
RIP Michael………always xxoo
booboo says
cate…
you’re a moron!!!! the word peodofile refers to the priests bring peodofiles you know the scandal the pope is involved in at this time!!!!…..dip s*&%!!!!………..

Gabbs says
hey,who ever wrote this article needs to be more respectful.
Michael’s fans are not wacky.
& you never know,he might be alive.
& the reason he would do this is to get away from the media,& teach them a lesson.
wherever you are,Michael,alive or dead,i hope you are well,& at peace.
i love you.
tina says
it’s funny how this guy can think of Michael Jackson has wacky when he is making pennies writing things he knows nothing about while Jackson always has and always will rake in the millions. we don’t want to let Michael go. he can’t ever be replaced. alive or not he is love, more than i can say for this guy.
shayne stewart says

Whoever wrote this article is an idiot. If you ever meet Uri Geller in person, you’ll see what a great person he is.
Lou says
Michael Jackson is listed on the IMDB (International Movie Database) as the director of a documentary. Now, there is a video on You Tube showing all the information with regard to this. You can believe it or not believe it. I am a beLIEver that he is alive. I saw another video showing Dr. Conrad Murray walking down the street and someone shouted hey! You’re making a movie! And he just smiled. Do some checking!
Lou says
A petalfile? What, did he defile flowers? It’s Pedophile. It comes from the Greek–pedo meaning child and philia meaning love.

Xena says
I really wonder what is wrong with this world when people act the way they do. The press and public would not leave Michael alone when he was alive and it seems to have become worse since word of his death. Could it really be any wonder why he would fake is death if that’s what he did. I have had several conversations with Michael and some mutual friends that we have, like David Copperfield and more, and he was a very giving, caring, and yes even sad man. Sad because of things such as this. So please people can’t we all just leave him and everyone else alone and live or die in peace. I know I would not want my life always scrutinized by everyone else in the world. I don’t know how he took it as long as he did, or anyone else in the public eye.
MaryAnn says
Hi, what video of Murray? Can you tell me the site?
barbara says
XENA, You claim people can’t leave the dead or alive alone by all the gossip but, what do you think you are doing by commenting on this site???? The same damn thing as everyone else!!! AND as far as you talking to Michael, David Copperfield- IN YOUR DREAM’S!!! If that were true, you would have done something about Michaels saddness, NO????? AND, David Copperfield is a rapist! Did you help HIM out on that problem too??? HONEY, YOU ARE FULL OF IT!!!!!!!!
whitespider says
You should know that the media has always told less than the truth about Michael Jackson. People made fortunes off of the back of Michael Jackson. While it is true that there are more questions about Micheal’s death than answers. Who are you to say that Michael s followers are crazy. Have you no compassion? People are looking for answers and trying to deal with their loss. In view of your article, it makes you look like a pompous unfeeling ass!
Shona says
The way I see it, is, If he was dead, he would be the only person to have a ‘strange’ life and an even stranger death! Not that he was strange, he was NORMAL but he played and controlled the media as well as they played with his image, isn’t it a tad strange that his death would be equally as strange? *shakes Heads* no. That man is still alive and he is messing with the media ha, ha, ha. Love it.
