Would this be decent evidence for reincarnation?

He is eager to debunk (or when he can't, ignore) all the rational explanations of these tricks, but he doesn't have anything near that criticism for the tricks themselves. Cold calls and magic tricks have been around forever and people who are fooled into thinking they prove the supernatural just haven't looked into or don't understand how they work.

Eh? No you see there are things that we have good and clear understanding of and there are things we don't know. The things we don't know are of course fully open to investigation based on whatever evidence we have. There are all these claims of knowledge being made in this thread that I would accuse belief systems based on faith and/or personal opinion.

On par with Ouija Boards, Thor, Apollo Jesus, ALLAH and even claims of the Transporter from Star Trek becoming a reality. It is bullshit woo on par with Bigfoot and lucky socks. Popularity of bullshit does not change that it is bullshit.

There isn't anything that we know about that would prevent it from happening unlike the other examples you mentioned. We know how Ouija Boards actually work for instance we know why a Star Trek style teleporter couldn't work and so on. We have some data there to go on.

You don't have to buy into anything to look at the evidence that potentially could be there for it. We don't get to state what can and can't happen you find out based on evidence, any evidence is worth looking at even if it's something we would think is odd.
