Placeb-O no he didn't!

I saw this clip on The Friendly Atheist  and had to share it. This is from a show called "Shark Tank" where business people come to the show looking for investors to start or expand their business.
Well, Mark Cuban wasn't going to conned by the psuedo science that Ryan Naylor was bringing. He was quick to call him out and make sure the rest knew how he felt. Sorry, having trouble embedding the video because it's from Hulu, but this link will show just the section that he is on.

They must be counting on the fact that most people haven't seen this clip however, because their website boasts "As seen on Shark Tank". They even offer a buy 2 get 2 by using Shark Tank as a promo code.

I'm always surprised how much influence that "balance test" has on people. Whether they are selling an ion watch or necklace, magnetic bracelet, shoe inserts or half a dozen other items it seems that they always use the "balance test" to show effective their modern snake oil is.

Personally I recommend the Placebo band(infused with the maximum amount of placebo allowed by law lol)  I have purchased a couple and they might be here by May 6 if anyone is interested. I bought a couple extra, they were $5 and I thought they might be a good conversation starter for those of you have friends/family that buy into this. You can have them try yours and once they see how great it is you can show them the "Power of Placebo"
