In the fifth video Todd initially does not hold the boy's legs while commanding growth; only after reaching out and grabbing them does the 'healing' occur — showing he needs physical control to produce the effect.

Fake Healing Videos Evaluated: Todd White, Tom Fischer and more 00:29:22 – 00:31:25

Key observation about Todd White's technique in the fifth video.

Mike observes that Todd initially commands the legs to grow without holding them and nothing happens. He then grabs the boy's legs and lifts them. Mike contrasts this with other contexts where Todd claims to heal people remotely (over the phone, praying over a whole audience) — if he can do those things without touching, why does he need to pick up the legs here? Mike argues this reveals the physical manipulation is the mechanism.
