I do think it's possible for people to be in or get in tune with eachothers 'fields'..so to speak. I came to the conclusion a while back that it was basically down to a human potential for echo location. We all have it. It's the reason you'll feel wierd if you approach a wall with your eyes closed or were about to bump into someone else. Blind people have been known to develop/ heighten thise sense.
My first tai chi/ aikijutsu teacher used to have us do these sort of qi style exercises (one example) where we would stand in front of eachother, not too far. One person with eyes closed. The other would 'pull' the person toward them and at the moment of their choosing would switch that into a 'push'.
I mean, heck I'm no qi master by any stretch but I could get it to work - people would visibly sway in time to what you did, on some people it would work better than others. If people are open I think our sensory perception can run deeper than we may normally consider. But I think it is limited. Though you could make the argument that a bit of this kind of training may be good for sensory awareness and sensitivity.
But for me the sort of training we wind up looking at in these kind of clips takes things too far down a road I wouldn't want to go. or don't feel any particular need to go down.
If you mix in martial skill, placebo, belief and expectations and the sort of mind control work Derren Brown is into. No wonder we have such phenomena around..
