Power Balence Braclets

Mr. Whipp,

My opinion about the bracelets is that they don't work. I watched all the videos and thought they worked until I saw the second video. The test where six  people got the bracelets and the tests did not work.  After all of the videos I think it was a mental thing.  The people who knew they had the bracelet would pass the test.  The people who did not know they had the bracelet would fail the balance test.  I believe the effects of the bracelet are mental games your mind is playing on you.

My hypothesis is that the bracelet would not work.  The bracelet would not have an effect in a test when people did not know if they had it.  I would test my hypothesis by getting five people who do not know what the band was.  Next I would have them close their eyes and stick one Power Balance Bracelet in a person's pocket and a regular arm band in the rest of the test subject's pockets.  Finally, I would run the test on everyone and if anyone passed I would see if they had the Power Balance Band in their pocket.

The reason to look at all sides of the issue is that you may not have all the information about the issue.  For example, I could have just watched the first video and think, wow, that is amazing! But after the second video it became clear that this was not the case.  If you do not look at all sides of the issue you will not have all the data for a good hypothesis and conclusion.
