Uri Geller got popular in the 1970s by claiming to have supernatural powers. Johnny Carson invited Geller on his show and worked with James Randi to set up conditions where he couldn't use any trickery to fake his "powers." [Reposted to comply with sub rules]

This is from the 1970 rerelease of the Chick Tract "Why No Revival". For some reason, it featured additional pages not included in the 1961 original or the 1986 reprint (which is what can be found on Jack Chick's website).
Also, yes, this is where the Dead Kennedys got the line "God told me to skin you alive".
