    he is in the NLP video. so if he is in a previous one it probably is.

  2. DrillKing1 says:

    he could have just sat on the stage and point laser beams in peoples eyes like a jackass for 2 hours, and then erase their memory at the end so they dont remember that they’ve been duped

  3. TheGhostman0 says:

    Plus, the screen is small. We can see more over a small area. If it was on a huge screen, it’d be much more difficult to notice. I see what you mean……

  4. christapheo says:

    Its not that you aren’t already susceptible, its both the fact that you have a near-bird’s-eye view, and it’s on camera. If you were in the audience, it would be much larger and more difficult to see. Because of how much larger it would be, you couldn’t read it consciously through a glance, while you could subconsciously. If any of us had been there, we might see a flash of light, but we’d disregard it for another light effect.

  5. TheGhostman0 says:

    Same here man. White words flashing around the screen saying “FORGET”. I’m glad I’m able to catch these things….but I am human so there will be a time where I will be susceptible to those tactics.

  6. xxDarkAwpxx says:

    i saw the word “forget” flash on around the room a couple of times

  7. aceshakazu says:

    My guess is that the mind can only think of a certain amount of things at once. so he rushes her giving her all soughts of orders also touching her on different body parts. her mind becomes over loaded then sleep

  8. durelino says:

    pheeew i though i had it. i thought it would be 2 and a 4… but maybe because she started five fivehundred…

  9. xirishmagicx says:

    8:34 is that Simon Pegg?

  10. broodergeek says:

    He is an illusionist.

  11. aerod6629 says:

    Caleb: you are right, whatever he’s doing there is much more subtle. I would guess that at certain points in the show, he’s calibrated just about everyone and knows what type of induction might work with whom.

  12. gbling55 says:

    and across the screen at 9:20

  13. Caleb9849 says:

    Of course he used a different induction, since he didn’t use that one. I was asking if anyone knows what he DID do.

  14. teoswand says:

    he used different induction…there are hundreds of inductions you can use to induct someone into trans…

  15. McfluffyMan says:

    look at the floor at 07:39.
    the word ‘FORGET’ flashes
    This is classic of Derren’s stage work, using rather unfair tricks on the entire audience.

    Good stuff :D

  16. NicNasty1981 says:

    i can remember watching this on tv and noticing the word forget right from the start

  17. Caleb9849 says:

    How did he get the girl to “SLEEP”? I didn’t notice handshake induction or anything of the sort.

  18. aceshakazu says:

    Man Derren is a magician. and magicians greatest assest is to lie to us. if you believe he’s not magician because he said it. by all means believe it.
    the thing about Derren is you cant tell when doing magic or something else. so then he has real powers

  19. randomperson6662 says:

    He’s a friend of Derrens I think.

  20. 1llu510n15t says:

    yes you can definetly see the word forget. . .

  21. kiyoshi says:

    Holy crap, that’s what I thought too.
    The guy looks like Simon Pegg at 8:32.
    Maybe he became a huge fan of Derren Brown.
    xD

  22. Elvaanseifer says:

    Yes, Ive seen many of Derren Brown’s T.V. shows. I think at the begining of every one of them he says he uses magic, misdirection, and showmanship. They are simply more efective techniches than the subliminal stuff. I still think he is great.

  23. pacificguitarist says:

    Sorry bud…. but derren is not a magician as hes stated many times. He also does not believe in ESP or anything like that.

    I think your missing the point…. ave you seen other videos of derren?

  24. r0m4n says:

    yeah i saw that two about 3 times. Once just when the lights start to dim and the bright white light shines “forget” on the front middle of the stage, the second time on the wall to the right (or that might’ve said “FOCUS”) and the last time just when he’s finishing up, it flashes at the same place as the first time.

  25. l3ft0v3rcrack says:

    Hahahaha. Was that simon pegg near the end?
