The Boy Who Could Read With His Ears

By Leo Gura - May 20, 2025

In 1979 a Chinese newspaper published a report of an 11 year old boy named Tang Yu who had the remarkable ability to read text with his ears. It worked like this: if you wrote down a few Chinese characters on a tiny piece of paper, rolled it up into a ball, and placed it inside his ear, he could read the characters back to you. This psy ability was called Extraocular Image. The Chinese Communists recruited such children into their military intelligence programs. When the CIA found out about this by reading the newspaper they went ape-shit and doubled their efforts to develop their own psychic recruitment and training programs. The psychic wars between the US, China, and Russia were on.
