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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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

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……

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

He’s a friend of Derrens I think.
December 26th, 2007 at 5:52 am
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?
December 26th, 2007 at 5:54 am
Hahahaha. Was that simon pegg near the end?
December 26th, 2007 at 6:12 am
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

How did he get the girl to “SLEEP”? I didn’t notice handshake induction or anything of the sort.
December 26th, 2007 at 6:34 am
8:34 is that Simon Pegg?

he used different induction…there are hundreds of inductions you can use to induct someone into trans…
December 26th, 2007 at 6:54 am
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
December 26th, 2007 at 6:55 am
i saw the word “forget” flash on around the room a couple of times
December 26th, 2007 at 7:04 am

December 26th, 2007 at 7:09 am
and across the screen at 9:20
December 26th, 2007 at 7:29 am
Of course he used a different induction, since he didn’t use that one. I was asking if anyone knows what he DID do.
December 26th, 2007 at 7:42 am
He is an illusionist.
