- In November 2000 Geller filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against Nintendo, claiming that the Japanese game-maker turned him into an "evil, occult Pokemon character". The character, a monster named "Yun Geller", carries a spoon and uses psychic mind-waves to give his victims bad headaches; Geller's trademark is the ability to psychically bend spoons.
- Claimed that he got the ability to bend spoons at the age of five, after he was struck by a bright flash of light that knocked him to the ground. Shortly afterwards, he was eating soup for lunch, when the spoon suddenly bent itself and broke.
- When Geller renewed his marital vows in 2001, Michael Jackson was his best man.
- Fan of Elvis Presley.
- Father of Natalie Geller and Daniel Geller.
- I think I usually have quite ordinary dreams. Sometimes my dreams take me to other dimensions. I can travel in my mind especially when I'm dreaming I focus my mind on what I want to dream. If I want to fly, I focus on flying.
- Nowadays even presidents, vice-presidents, and heads of big agencies are opening their minds to accept psychic phenomena, because they know it works.
- I believe in past lives but I know nothing about mine and I don't want to know. I live in the present, taking one day at a time.
- I've stopped caring about skeptics, but if they libel or defame me they will end up in court.
- Our meaning is to make our little planet Earth a better place to live, to stop wars, disarm nuclear missiles, to stop diseases, AIDS, plague, cancer and to stop pollution.
