Mentalism is a branch of magic that appears to employ psychic powers to read someone's mind, predict the future, and similar paranormal action.But Ross tells everyone he is really a magician who uses conjuring methods to bring about such psychic effects. It's often been said that if a magician uses "sleight of hand," then a mentalist uses "slight of mind." Ross pointed out, Although my so-called psychic powers might appear to be genuine, I am just a skilled magician and entertainer." Ross's website is
