Helmut Schmidt (parapsychologist)

.

Schmidt's early psychokinesis experiments involved machines with one red and one green light. Subjects would attempt to make one light illuminate more than another. Schmidt has reported success rates of 1–2% above what would be expected at random over a large number of trials, and that similar results have been replicated by at least 75 different labs worldwide.
