Hutchison effect
The Hutchison effect is a name given to a collection of phenomena that John Hutchison claimed to discover in the late 1970s and 1980s. Hutchison has claimed that, while trying to duplicate experiments done by Nikola Tesla, he discovered a number of what he claims are paranormal phenomena: the levitation of heavy objects, the fusion of dissimilar materials such as metal and wood, the anomalous heating of metals without burning adjacent material, the spontaneous fracturing of metals, and creating both temporary and permanent changes in the crystalline structure and physical properties of metals, all of which are claimed to not be the result of known physical forces (such as electromagnetism). Hutchison and his supporters have surmised that these have come from zero-point energy. However, none of these claims have ever been reproduced or given credibility by the mainstream scientific community.
