we had a guy so a thing for our dogs from 60 miles away
the one that had a stroke got up and walked, he hadn't walked for 2 weeks
the other one had a enlarged heart, he wanted a picture of our dog with the sun behind him
he called this broadcasting, we don't what he did but it helped
his wife worked at a carpet warehouse, they couldn't a roll of carpet they were looking for, he did his thing from 30 miles away and told them where they could find it
he also did dowsing

I never have but I remember my mother talking about seeing it done when she was growing up in the Midwest in the 20's. I always thought it was fascinating.

my father in law could, and he could also pinpoint under ground utilities with two thin wires.

I've seen it done with a willow forked branch hunting for water in UK.
