'AGT' Season 17: Fans compare Mind2Mind to The Clairvoyants as mentalists duo pulls off mind-boggling trick

Fans think Mind2Mind is 'not quite Clairvoyants, but it's really close'

Mind2Mind, also known as James and Marina, appeared on 'America's Got Talent' with their psychic/mentalist performance. Even though they impressed the judges and the live audiences, fans and viewers at home have a slew of questions about their act, with many wondering how they did it!?

Mind2Mind, featuring James Harrington and Marina Liani, is a world-class, award-winning mentalist and Dubai Magician pair. The team enchants audiences with a broad range of mind reading and magical illusions designed to keep any audience engaged. They specialize in close-up and stage mind reading, which includes a variety of mental dexterity feats. This includes an uncommon type of mentalism known as 'Second Sight,' in which Marina is able to look through the eyes of others without the need for eyesight, technology, or amusing verbal codes.

They won the Golden Buzzer on 'Ukraine's Got Talent' and featured on 'Britain's Got Talent.' Marina is outside with Terry, and her first trick is to predict Sofia's phone's battery percentage. She manages to pull it off! The audience is then asked to jot down "powerful memories" on a sheet of paper. Heidi takes a recollection from the bag. She reads it, then focuses on it. Marina recounts a father holding a little child as they experience their first encounter with the water. And she gets it right.

"This is amazing," Simon exclaims. Sofia describes it as mysterious and spectacular. Heidi describes it as "wild." Howie loved the increased complexity, and the team received four yeses!
Despite the fact that the couple managed to leave everyone in the room with mainly dropped jaws, online followers were eager to come up with their own hypotheses.

First of the theories come from a fan who said: "The skeptic in me says there was something switched inside the wastebasket with the bag before she drew the envelope and again after the others were dumped out on the table. Or Heidi palmed the right envelope and switched it with the random one. #AGT."

One fan wrote: "Ok, that was incredible. It's not quite Clairvoyants, but it's really close. I may have a new leader in the clubhouse. #AGT"

While another theory read: "some type of special paper chipped with a scanner in the bag? #agt."

Another fan, who was completely blown away by the performance, tweets: "Normally I'd call absolute bulls**t on these mentalist acts but uhhh... #AGT #AmericasGotTalent."

A fan wrote how the performance was average but the duo can make an act out it: "Not hugely unique compared to previous years but it’s something they could make an act out of #AGT."

Huge number of fans online compare the duo to the Austrian magician and mentalist duo, The Clairvoyants with most saying Mind2Mind is not upto their standard: "They are so not like Thommy and Amélie, The Clairvoyants. #AGT."

Calling the act a bluff, another fan wrote: "The bag was switched. They had a bag set aside all with the same memory in it and they switched it when it was off camera. #AGT."

However, there are fans who are absolutely taken aback by the performance as they write: "The mentalists always leave me picking my jaw off the dang floor. #AGT."

Another fan wrote: "I don't know how those opening acts did what they did, but they were WOW #AGT #AmericasGotTalent."

Calling them some serious talent, another Twitter user wrote: "Wow what an act. memory reading / this is some serious talent #AGT."

A fan felt the act could be better but deserves a live show: "Their audition could’ve been better, but I can see this act getting through to the live show. #AGT."
