Mentalist Derren Brown

psychological illusionism is what he claims to practice in his one-man Broadway show Darren brown secret please welcome famed British Memphis down [Applause] psychological illusion is that's a really good question I made it up years ago when I was asked I was asked for a label I it's kind of mind-reading and influence and suggestion but it's all science it's not psychic or magic or anything like that's kind of the best way of explaining it I guess have you better on the news I have a couple of shows on like the news are you banned from places you bet you're banned from kiss yes what about American kiss embarrassing no not yet like with the gambling no it's kind of when you start practicing card-counting and those kind of techniques which aren't illegal but they can throw you out rather than the moment you get on that security system any other any other casino that uses the same system doesn't let you know you you're gonna read our minds yeah wanting to plant thoughts in our brains that we think they I think you think yeah well this this is the classic test for psychic abilities which I thought I would do with you okay you may have seen this before I can I don't think any of this is psychic I think what makes it work is much more interesting than the idea of psychic ability but look these are five symbols all right we've got a circle square wavy lines of a star Alex Cross so that's one set I have another set here and I'm gonna try and send one of the thoughts to you okay don't look at them for the moment okay I will take out one and okay that now I put that face down okay that's my choice here's what you must have do don't try and think oh he thinks that I think he wants me to think of that it's not it's about what you're looking for is that feeling like if it was if you got it wrong then you I'm just gonna say that it's that feeling but try and catch it now rather than later so if I could got it's a gut sense that I knew it was that put it face it down it's one of two cards and you know that I know whatever you think it is oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh okay okay just screw it up no no no we'll see well we do a couple of times otherwise it's just 25 so let's don't overthink it because they're that good okay like I'm taking out another one all right don't ever think it's right look at me try and get it up here first and then just take it out rather than looking through the cards I take it out but it facedown on top and tap on top so they're the same as mine did you change your mind on that last one you've written through me [Applause] this is this is a classic test for this color thing let's do the other ways well I'd love to do is to try this so that's you picking a thought up from me but I know what I'm doing so I want to try it with you picking a pulled up from Ryan Barrett so read my mind anyway this is gonna be we should be able to nail this well come on the front my guards no no Ryan if I bring you this time because switch around so Ryan here Kelly this side okay as you go in the middle okay you have to just really follow my instructions here and just totally go with this and be with me just think of one okay don't let us see Holden book in front of you okay have a look think of one just think of one okay thinking of one all right now take it out put it in your pocket okay whoops can I close the card take it out put in your pocket is exactly as I say take what out put it you're okay all right put them all in your pocket whatever one

my pocket okay all right are you gonna send that thought to Kelly all right Kelly yes are you right-handed or left-handed I'm right-handed okay so in a minute I'm gonna ask you where did Jack and Jill go well I say that I want you to say Jack and Jill went up the hill and then just to keep saying that on a loop Jack and Jill went up the hill Jack and Jill went up the hill why do you do that let me give you the see of my hands say that hand up hold the pen so it's like a quarter of an inch brother card and you grip it a little bit yeah and so you don't drop them that's right just like that keep that image in your head take a deep breath in close your eyes and just drift down in a minute I'll ask you whether Jack and Jill go as you say that line over and over again you're gonna let the hand move with a pen and draw whatever it wants to draw on the card whatever it wants to draw or scribble you're just gonna let it move and do what it wants to do where did Jack and Jill go Jack and Jill went up behind with first prize yes show mercy of guiding ahead you've got a hand so you're guiding it draw a shape Ryan Jack and Joe enough to help focus on the shape to hold in your hand and you're

shape you were thinking square the square did you as you were doing it would you think of a square anything going on consciously with literally nothing except jack-and-jill going up that's taking up your conscious mind right he's still unconscious Dean did you feel like you were controlling your own hand there not really I just felt like it was just sort of moving around there just sort of like going back and forth okay I have no idea if this is well it just felt like it was going back and forth I won't take it like it was probably just a straight line all right well take anything like a
