Penn and Teller Fool Us with Colin McLeod and Kenny

welcome back to pull ups where the best current magicians performed to try win a spot in Vegas by Falling Penn & Teller so let's meet our next contender Colin McLeod my name is Colin code I am a Mentalist frogs you know a number of newspapers have referred to me as being the the shrimp log forms of the mind I mean I think that real interested in Sherlock Holmes came from which I all would really have get in the boots and reading they haven't just been fascinated with this guy who could look someone up and down and just from that appearance know we essentially everything about actually studied forensic investigation a University in Glasgow but I specialized more in criminal profiling and now taking that that real psychology and applying that to the entertainment aspect I really feel that I can bring both together to create something quite unique and different the routine that I'm going to perform this evening is hopefully give the audience the experience of being the closest thing to real mind-reading that the legacy he's praying that he can read our audience's minds okay and looking at you I don't want to be rude but I hope these Buddha magazine along because it ain't gonna take long is it please welcome Mr Colley McLeod ah thank you very much I before I start I think it's really way that I tell you there are three techniques that I'm using to create the illusion I'm gonna do tonight first of all I'm not from here I'm from a place in Scotland called Hart Hill it's very boarding those cows thank you not even my family huh but have lots of cows and they poo a lot so I left there very quickly I went to what Burrell Academy where out started learning stage hypnosis then I went to university in Glasgow where I studied profiling so basically the three skills I'm using our psychology suggestion and and it really is make sure that then that you drop out to witness in fact tonight for this demonstration there's two things that you need to know are very important first of all we're gonna choose someone at random by throwing out a hat we'll come to that in a second but secondly this envelope this envelope is crucial to what's about to take place there are actually pan instead of me choosing someone with the hat to make even Fader would you please mind choosing someone that you think this would work quite well with okay we see you I can get well how about how about the gentleman here in the kind of white shirt and the baseball hat he's right there at the hi there what's your name sir Kenny Kenny you happy to help here yes update any please to help get Kenny around the halls cannae case have you face the front discs lately more Kenny be honest would you say that you have a good imagination yeah yeah okay you thought about that but that's okay okay okay let's imagine you you see behind us we have boot cases I want you to imagine from your county that you walk into a bookshop you open up the doors and there's books either side of the bookshop though be honest would you pick up pick up from this side or from where would you pick the book from that's safe okay you pick up the boot you look at it no you're gonna have to imagine this just look there tailors what's the book called makeup memoirs of Penn & Teller you said you had a good imagination let's imagine you flip through the book and you stop on one page look they're tailors what page number do you actually stalk on just look right there that's up to you 80 don't change your mind are you happy with a thing I'm happy with okay I want you to look there right now and just think of one word that you can see you can change your mind if you like but get Walmart in your head tell me you've got one don't say it but this about the language shut the book that it goes back up on the shelf the book is gone no Kenny I'm not gonna read your mind they are the only clue that I want you to give them Kenny is first of all can you count the number of letters in this word is it quite a long word is it more than six letters no okay can you please tell everyone right now then how many letters are in the ward five five okay Kenny I don't you see the bit of paper that I've got here can you just look the other way for me just so that you don't see I'm gonna show you the word that I'm hoping Kenny right now is thinking or Kenny just keep your eyes closed as well for me that would be lovely so Kenny can you please look background can he be absolutely honest Taylors and your laces clear this public speaking voice what word were you thinking of brick so that again sorry brick did you any point there think of the word house then change your mind no no that I've been cool the way try the what you thought I've said against where I cannae break ladies and gentlemen Bret one more thing the reason I did ask pen to choose someone this evening is I didn't want to actually just throw out the hair I tend to paint it's quite painful especially so you want this to think that we've gone the wrong way and you'd make there I'm not quite sure how you do it but let's just check something to make sure everyone knows I'm you didn't know Kenny you hadn't met Kenny never make any before in my life but Thank You Kenny forever he was chosen a rather by paints there's no way you could've influenced that I'm dying to ask you how you did it I know you're not gonna tell me in my won't beat you in the good chance do you feel confident do you think you're gonna be going to make it hot you know I just really not about me trying to feel them as long as I entertain them and entertained everyone here that's really been my goal tonight he could talk pen how would you it was it was great and you know we we have studied a bit of mentalism yeah so I'll tell you we were burning here from the moment we were ready for all sorts of things you didn't use and you let us down a few garden paths and I also think once again you know I we don't like to ruin magic too much yeah so I'm going to ask the fellow from the audience if your imagination when you were just imagining this big library of books and you're imagining opening up the book and you were imagining looking at the word and that word was being formed in your head and you were getting it so clearly in your head was his pantomime so good that you felt it was helping you with your imagination yes really good wasn't it it was great and I would like to leave it at that you did a wonderful job at pantomiming the book so are you convinced that Penn & Teller know what they talking about yeah I think how I do want to point out that it wasn't if I can say that the term instant stooge no no not at all I would like to point out I don't know what any of that means but I'd like to see Miss smart as Colleen here getting him to imagine that word I believe I believe I believe is the trick they're playing yes tell adjust to the secret side either their informations or he knows exactly what you do it was a great we love seeing it didn't we
