A paranormal investigator claimed today he is in line to win £1 million after betting he could prove the existence of an afterlife.

Ross Hemsworth, 49, from Glastonbury, has placed a £100 bet with odds of 10,000/1, that he will provide evidence of an afterworld beyond reasonable doubt.

If the self titled “scientific investigator of anomalous phenomena” is proved correct not only will he bag the money but will also become one of the most famous men in modern history.

Mr Hemsworth denied his scheme was crackpot and said a team of scientists and doctors were working around the clock to prove existence of the after life.

He could not provide details of the evidence he is set to produce as it was being kept “under wraps”.

The evidence must be provided and accepted by bookmakers William Hill before the end of the year or the business entrepreneur would lose his bet.

He said: “There is something out there trying to make contact.

“With the evidence we have got we are not a million miles away from proving it.

“The whole point of the project is to prove that there is something there.

“More and more people are coming away from religion, there are more and more wars.

“If we can prove this we hope it will make some difference to peoples’ lives.”

He added that voice communication, video and photography would be among the evidence he would produce.

William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe said of the unusual bet: “We are used to taking bets on matters as bizarre as the existence of the Loch Ness Monster; whether Elvis Presley is still alive and when UFOs may land, even on whether ghosts exist.

“But this is the first time we have ever taken a bet that conclusive proof of the existence of the after-life will be forthcoming.

“I’ve no idea what that evidence may be, but if Ross produces it before the end of the year, we will be paying him £1 million.”
