What do you think the odds are of a man who is set to prove there is an Afterlife?

Question

A paranormal investigator claimed today he is in line to win £1 million after betting he could prove the existence of an afterlife.

Ross Hemsworth, 49, from Glastonbury, has placed a £100 bet with odds of 10,000/1, that he will provide evidence of an afterworld beyond reasonable doubt.

If the self titled “scientific investigator of anomalous phenomena” is proved correct not only will he bag the money but will also become one of the most famous men in modern history.

Mr Hemsworth denied his scheme was crackpot and said a team of scientists and doctors were working around the clock to prove existence of the after life.

He could not provide details of the evidence he is set to produce as it was being kept “under wraps”.

The evidence must be provided and accepted by bookmakers William Hill before the end of the year or the business entrepreneur would lose his bet.

Thi sounds kind od occultish, what do you think?

He's taking an enormous risk with betting $100 on it, isn't he?

Zero

very smart marketing

Answer 4

He might as well flush those 100 pounds down the toilet. It's quicker and requires less effort.


There is no afterlife.

Answer 5

Read 23 Minutes in Hell, or look it up on amazon.com

Answer 6

I give his success a low order of probability.

Answer 7

It's a novelty bet- there is nothing remotely serious about it.

Answer 8

Occultish!? I'd say, stupidish!

Answer 9

It should be interesting to see what proof he produces.
