Uri Geller (in ebraico: אורי גלר‎?; Tel Aviv, 20 dicembre 1946) è un personaggio televisivo e illusionista israeliano con cittadinanza britannica, divenuto famoso per le sue capacità illusionistiche, da lui attribuite ai poteri psichici che sosteneva di possedere. Geller arrivò al successo negli anni settanta attraverso una serie di esibizioni televisive nelle quali eseguiva dei numeri all'apparenza causati dai suoi poteri paranormali. Affermò di aver dimostrato le sue capacità di telecinesi, rabdomanzia e telepatia, ritenendosi capace, in particolare, di poter piegare cucchiai e di fermare o accelerare lancette di orologi. Sebbene i prestigiatori siano in grado di riprodurre identici risultati mediante ricorso a trucchi da palcoscenico, Geller sosteneva che questi effetti erano causati dalla forza della sua mente e dai poteri della volontà. Contro di lui, si è mosso il prestigiatore James Randi, il quale replicò tutti i suoi numeri, giungendo alla conclusione che Geller non fosse altro che un abile prestigiatore. Geller non è mai stato in grado di replicare le sue esibizioni sotto il controllo di James Randi o di altri prestigiatori esperti.
