In the late 1960's Tart did an "experiment" where he had a number on a shelf in a hospital. One woman undergoing surgery was able to read the number. Tart claimed is was proof that he had invalidated materialism and that the OBE involved the womans soul floating above her body.
Not only was this never repeated successfully but it was also found by another group to be an outright incorrect assumption. Why? Because in the same room was a clock that reflected the number so the patient easily could see it.
If Tart really was such a good scientist and investigator he would not have made such an extraordinary claim while leaving a gaping hole in his "experiment".
