Punter Ross Hemsworth Bets On Existence Of The Afterlife
YOU have to hand it to paranormal investigator Ross Hemsworth. While most people will put a few quid on the horse or bet on who’ll get to shag first in Big Brother, Hemsworth has aimed rather higher, placing a £100 wager on the existence of the afterlife.
Interestingly, he got quite generous odds of 10,000/1 and now the 49-year-old claims to be on the verge of winning the £1million bet.
Says Hemsworth: “There is something out there trying to make contact. With the evidence we have got we are not a million miles away from proving it. The whole point of the project is to prove that there is something there.”
However, if Hemsworth is to pocket his winnings, bookmakers William Hill will have to receive and verify the evidence before the end of the year.
Graham Sharpe of the bookmakers opines: “We are used to taking bets on matters as bizarre as the existence of the Loch Ness Monster; whether Elvis Presley is still alive and when UFOs may land, even on whether ghosts exist. But this is the first time we have ever taken a bet that conclusive proof of the existence of the after-life will be forthcoming.”
I think I’ll stick to big Brother. So should you. Click here for details…

Ross Ross Ross, you are a real pip. I have seen you in action first hand and you are completely full of Sh#$. How is your Phiastos disc? DId you go through that Vortex that your little dowsing rods claimed you would go through??
Where is the proof Ross? Here is a piece of advice for you baldy.
Do something extraordinary first and “then” tell us about it. Your promises like your head, and pockets, are empty.

I think that this bet should be taken very seriously, I feel that it mst be possible to prove the existence of the afterlife, I await eagerly to find out what the results and findings are… just don’t let the money get you get too carried away on the financial side of the bet just don’t give up on real verifiable evidence, I think that’s the important thing.

Ross,
The dead ARE talking and Elvis lives! Hear me out:
I have never been in a betting shop before, but, do you understand that whether you win this bet depends a lot on its wording? I think I know what scientists should do to produce conclusive evidence about afterlife. I can tell them do 1,2,3 things and publish your findings. So, if I tell scientists what exactly investigate, so they publish a paper about it, how can you win the bet? I suggest you publish the wording of the bet, and since there was so much in the news about this bet, William Hill should have a database on their website with the top 500 specialty bets and their wording. I’m saying that because I have figured out how you could track down Elvis Presley and prove that Elvis lives, but if the wording of the punter’s bet restricts him… then what?

What do you mean by there being something out there trying to make contact with us?

Hi Ross,
I think that your result being a successful one could make a monumentous occasion All the best to you mate.

Ross, you are a charlatan. You stand zero chance of winning your bet but you want the free publicity. I think you should be ashamed of yourself. Mankind has considered this question for thousands of years, but lo and behold, YOU claim to have the proof. Yeah…right! The only people trying to contact you are the local police constabulary.

Ross,
can you publish the bet contract in full? What is the wording and what William Hill wrote down as valid proof?
Do they have a website where they publish the full betting contract about “unusual” bets like this one?
