You cannot kill people by chanting Sanskrit

The president of the Indian Rationalist Association, Sanal Edamaruku, challenges a tantric, on India Television to use the arcane arts to kill him. Hundreds of millions of Indians tuned into India Television to watch the televised performance of the dark arts by the tantric.

The performance are on Youtube.

The outcome is totally expected but nevertheless, the video of the whole process is hilarious. Sanal Edamaruku has struck a blow for rationalism in the superstition-stricken subcontinent.
