First African Voodo Captured On Video- Real Odi Eshi! by macjive01: 7:43am On Nov 28, 2010 |
http://www.newsrescue.com/2010/11/sword-stuck-through-mans-neck-in-nigerian-festival-voodoo-or-science/ check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ochyXJe-KVc&feature=player_embedded In this video the “magical sword” is apparently harmlessly and bloodlessly placed through a practitioners neck and he is paraded around the square. These are the Ekpo of the Annang tribe from Afaha Obong, Abak, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. Later in the video another practitioner is seen also harmlessly, bloodlessly and apparently painlessly slicing through his arm and parading this. The question is- how do we refer to these amazing feats? Do we limit them to the ‘occult’ a disparaging reference to superhuman feats, or do we recognize them as exemplary scientific feats on par with ‘western’ system scientific accomplishments and worthy of publication. The African spiritualist, herbalist and traditionalists were the physicians that kept Africa thriving and surviving as the blooming population we know, up until the white man came along with very dangerous diseases(like Gonorrhea). They were sufficient and provided remedies for all diseases. They had ethic codes, therapy documents, conducted research, shared information and provided the public health education and information. What is their role in the modern society? Is their valuable scientific expertise being ignored to our own detriment and irredeemable future loss. |

It's just magic, "the art of producing illusions as entertainment by the use of sleight of hand, deceptive devices, etc." |

macjive01:It's just a facade.the more you believe it,the more you think it's real.When the european came to benin,they arrested their oba with all his voodoo and sent him on exile.were the gods sleeping then ? Voodoo,juju is just a manipulation of the victim's mind |

To all the nonbelievers, there are some things science cannot explain. I have seen such acts in Ohafia with my own eyes. |

Omenani:Exactly,you may see it but it's just an illusion more like a virtual reality. |

I can explain the knife stuck in the man's neck from that video. They took a normal knife and broke it into two. Then they built an elastic contraption that presses the two knifes halves together on opposite sides of the man's neck. That's why you have another man following the man around holding 'something' at the back of his neck. That 'something is what's holding the two parts of the knife together. That is all. Ask yourself: - Why does the other man have to follow the man with the knife in his neck? - Why didn't we see clearly when the man was being stabbed with the knife? |

Didn't watch the video, but it is pretty easy to fake a lot of things. Take for example this guy being cut in half by a chainsaw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s30b3VDjVuQ |

Ask yourself: The oracle told him to do so
The oracle didn't like the idea |

jut wondering. . .how do you define magic anyway? or voodoo? or odieshii? a phenomenon that defies any rational explanation? which means if it can eventually be explained, it ceases to be magic, rit? |

if anyone of you have visited both western and african museums and see the contrast in body armaments for war, you'd understand why we still remain in the dark, as evidenced from the OP and people who believe in all these primitive crap. while you see evolving innovations in body armaments, from old barbaric germanic tribes to that of medieval time, all you see in the naija museum is different assortments of odeshi, jazz, otumokpo for body armor. guess who was able to conquer who in the long run; the one who used his brain and not my overtly superstitious forefathers who relied on the same delusions that continue to draw back my brothers and sisters back home |

I feel about the same way. If this so called voodoo/jazz is real, wouldn't it be obvious? It more or less has a cure-all effect. |

Some people actually fall for this?No wonder the sharp guys called pastors are able to collect 10+x % of you monthly income while you smile to drop it for them. @seun,oyb and dapobear, thank you for the posts.you guys made me to feel there may still be hope for Nigeria. @OP,how will you feel if you witness levitation and disappearing objects including something as large as The Statue of Liberty?Yet we know it's no voodoo. Just tricks for entertainment. |

And the Machete cutting into the bicep is simply the collapsed part that will like accordion retracts under some pressure. In the days when Africa was oppressed, it these things were real, why did the oppressors had their ways with the people, the voodoo people were no spared of humiliation, including arrest, and even killing them just to proof them powerless, and that the masses could be held captives? Even now, what benefit can the voodoo provide? If the man with the fake neck stab is confronted right there by any of us to the fact that we will believe it if only we can stab him ourselves with our own weapon, you will see the organizers and the man himself saying No, no. LOL> Am laughing in Efik. |

there's a Tv series called 'MAGIC'S BIGGEST SECRETS FINALLY REVEALED', you can google that out on youtube and watch, you'll be surprise at the magnitude of revelations being revealed by an ex-magician. Don't get brain washed |
