  • it's bullshit. they don't just 'forget' what stop, they seem to 'forget' everything they're doing. I call bullshit.

  • @MetalicAtheist The man that was the last subject of this didn't forget why he went on the underground (to meet a friend), which would disprove your point. Everyone was pretty bewildered and one man kept looking at the chart of stops in effort to remember again.

  • This makes no sense to me and the explanation is without logic and too short to be convincing... although the idea that the "stop thinking" pun can indirectly dictate to others is a good one and the acting is very good too. I might have bought it if it wasn't for the ridiculous touch on the forehead...

  • At the beginning of this Derren planted Inception.

  • "You will have sex with me"...

  • I do this to random people on the bus, except I make them pay me for the tapping on the forehead that lets them remember their stop.

  • so, the guy on wich is doesn't work probably takes this ride everyday, and has the same stop everyday?

    I mean, I think if this is your daily routine route, you've stopped thinking about it after some time, because you're so used to the same thing, so you can't forget it.

  • at 1:50 I was trying to remember and kept saying "stop thinking about it" in my head and forgot lolol

  • fucken Derren and his jedi mind tricks

  • So he does it on a hundred people and it works on five, and he shows the five.

  • @bogglerful He only does it to people who are succeptible to suggestion. It's not pre recorded 100 times. Do you have any evidence for 100 shots? No. Just a baseless assertion.

  • @911assassinate And, by the way, he *does* falsify his results and, essentially, has admitted as much. He's even used actors playing the part of a hypnotized person.

  • @bogglerful Yet again, claims with zero evidence to support it. No where does he use "actors" nor are the 100 failed takes. He's admitted no such thing. It's Neuro linguistic programming and suggestion. Please Study it. Better yet, attend one of his LIVE shows so he can demonstrate otherwise to you. Svengali.

  • @bogglerful Uh huh. And what percentage of people are susceptible to suggestion? Or is it just anyone who appears groggy or dopey or "elsewhere," and can be momentarily tricked, and the trick called "hypnosis"? Are you groggy right now? Look at that!!!

  • Not as good as the stuff in the Mindreading Exposed ebook

  • You don't want to sell me deathsticks.

  • These are not the droids you're looking for.

  • psychology is so awesome....been practicing hypnosis and memory erase techniques and getting better!

  • Comment removed

  • super like

  • Derren Brown is a powerful sorceror who has the power to project things into your mind.Trust me he is the real deal

  • what is the name of the show?

  • If this is real, how does he do that?

  • 2:50 "What STOP THINKING ABOUT IT now, what STOP THINKING ABOUT IT now, what stop where you getting off at?

  • @itshelpa I had to literally watch it 3 times to notice it EVEN with your comment. WTF.

  • staged

  • fake

    

  • derren is a beast!

  • Don't think of a black cat.

  • He should have made Swarzenneger forget about cheating on his wife

  • Damn! I watched the whole thing and forgot to stop in the middle.

  • This would work on anything, but the fact that the word STOP is there, makes it that much more helpful.

  • 2:29 = 10% of the population

  • Comment removed

  • @LLMood and he still need to take subway!

  • @LLMood probably true, maybe even fewer.

  • your on a train

    you dont know were it will take you

    but you know were you want it to

    this is because derren brown decided to mess with you

  • Fake ...and gay

  • @Exlemic Actually Derren Brown is gay so spot on! Good job!

    and no its not bullshit, ive done things like this with my friends,

    notice the embedded commands:

    "stop...thinking about it" and him using his waving hand as an anchor.

  • BULLSHIT

  • These aren't the droids you're looking for

  • Derrens fucking up everyones appointments.

  • he says stop thinking about it.

  • 66 people were victims of derren brown

  • The thing about this is anybodys mind can get manipulated but ONLY if you let it..... if you don't let them take control then it won't work.

  • Fucking Jedi's and their mind tricks...

  • "You're thinking of not having sex with me. . . . "

  • The clip suggests that this technique has a 3 out of 4 success rate. The question is what was the actual success rate, and what failed attempts were left on the cutting room floor.

    Interesting though....

  • this guy is mad trolling

  • I had a feeling that guy at the end would miss his stop. :(

  • When I say, "Don't think of a black cat" you think of a black cat because, "think of a black cat" was the root command in the sentence. "Stop thinking about it now" is the root command in the sentence, "Thinking about it now, what STOP THINKING about it, now."

  • Obviously an act. The people's acting when they're "trying to remember", and when they suddenly "get it" is terrible.

  • @juujuuuujj This was not an act. About 3 in 10 people are open to following unconscious commends in words. I one time asked a man for his card while he was swiping his credit card. He handed me his credit card. Why did he do that? Think about it.

  • Nope. Don't buy it.

  • How come he can only trick some people and not others?

  • @chuckstar666 cause some peopel have more concentration and some people have better memories

  • @chuckstar666 it only works to people who arnt stubborn

  • best thing is, derren let the guy in the show who could't be hypnotized by him :-)

  • random Gorillaz sign in the backround.

  • judging from the tie and the newspaper, the first guy was probably an investor who gets off at the same stop every day. How you could forget the same stop you take every day is beyond me

  • derren brown is all fake , nothing is true....

  • @EwanJanoski proof?

  • @EwanJanoski If Derren Brown is fake, and nothing is true... Then I'm curious. Do you ever ask someone what their astrology sign is? Do you ever read the horoscope? Because, if you do, then you must stay consistent. Either something is fake and remains so or it isn't and you have to ask why people follow commands unconsciously. Because if this is real in any way, don't you think advertisements can control what you buy at the store? Influence how you dress, eat, and think? Scary.

  • @truvelocity it goes deeper, what politicians say, what you see on the news, how does it influence you?

  • @FishyMoe Good thinking question.  Politicians use "doublespeak." How does the news influence me? I don't watch the news just for that reason. I don't want to be influenced by a pack of B.S., after all. "Who owns the media?"

  • When they say "don't think of a black cat"

    -you think of a black cat because of negative suggestion

  • @Amberbabynz

    Its not, because when u hear "a black cat" it pops up automatically in in your brain..

  • the phrase "think about a black cat" is in it...but so is the word "dont" ?

  • His subconsious mind links the hand wave and phrase "gone from your mind" with out him even knowing amazing!

  • beautiful

  • 64 people are stuck on a train, unable to remember which is their stop.

  • @newagesakura maybe hes got some sort of device with him

  • Derren uses 'The Force' to perform mind tricks like a true Jedi

    And by waving his hand across that guy's face @2:32,Derren pushes a thought..a skill I have yet to conquer..as i myself journey to become a stronger Jedi

    _

    And as I'm still to learn the full extent of MY powers,I have only one trick,called the "Force Corruption"..muahahhaha

    j/k

    This is a cool trick,that i'd love to learn

    _

    *Waves palm left to right*

    "He's a handsome man...Go out on a date with him..He's not sleazy...He paid already"

  • Awesome trick, but I feel sorry for that last guy :/

  • fuckin jedi mind trick!

  • it says goriilaz at one stop

  • what an ass, made him miss his stop 

  • 2:21 GORILLAAAAZZZZZZ!!!!!

  • I like how he acknowledges the pun in the title with three dots.

  • At 1:08 when Derren knocked this person's forehead it sounded like an empty can.I wonder if there is even is a brain inside his head.

  • @12alberteinstein the sound was made by brown :)

  • and now he's got fired for being late to work because some idiot doing jedi mind tricks on him.

  • @TylerMontana Nah, his boss knows BPT.

  • LOL 3:09. The guy looked so perplexed and focused on recalling the stop!

  • think "thinking" thinking thinking thinking

  • HAHAHA! That poor guy! But I can't help but laugh...

  • lol xd

  • hahaha owned I GOTTA LEARN THIS THIS IS AWESOME

  • STAWP THINKING ABOUT I NOAW DERREN BROWN

  • haha

  • I think the Jedi mind trick failed on the third guy also because there was a pole between the two of them, creating a psychological barrier between them.

    I wondered what the meaning of the little cut scene of the university quadrangle before the third guy.

  • He's good. He chunks down the process of forgetting something. It seems like he's anchoring the people on the shoulders or wherever he's touching them. The verbal suggestion " stop... thinking about it now..." repeated over and over is effective.

    The little bop on the forehead to trigger the remembering of the destination. That's happens to be the 1st point on the bladder meridian.

    He's doing some... other stuff there too. Brilliant.

  • 3:48 Derren makes a grr face.

  • Lastly, "suggestibility" is greatly increased when Darren showed up with crew members, which suggests to the subject that Darren is a person of "authority." When one perceives an authority figure, the tendency to obey may be greatly increased.

  • The 3rd guy showed doubts (and perhaps a bit shocked) by the whole TV crew. He was too alerted to fall for Darren's commands. When Darren was waving his hands (to show train of thoughts), the guy wasn't even paying attention to Darren. The rapport was not built successfully with the 3rd guy. But the other 3 showed strong rapport. Their facial expression were more relaxed, eye were focused on Darren's dialog The 3rd guy was in a bit of "shock" emotion, hence no falling into the trick!

  • @jibikao Buddy...you do know that it's fake hahaha I think someone still believes in Saaaaaantaaaaaaaa?!?

  • @FailingTube no its not.. ever heard of the subconscious?

  • @FailingTube i know that you are probably fake in my reality

    but keep posting

    fake humor is still humor

  • In order for Darren's trick to work, the person needs to have a high level of "suggestibility". If you look closely, the first two and the black guy all fell for the "mental break" trick (the hand wave) because they were totally in-tune with Darren's words which interrupted their thought. The 3rd person didn't fall for the trick because he had a look of "caution". His facial expression showed a micro-facial movement of "contempt" (the light tightening of corner lip muscle).

  • cruel derren

  • Fake. Don't you think various ehm organizations would use this technique if it was real?

  • @someman7 Oh, yes they are. ;)

  • @someman7 They do. It's called Advertising.

  • Notice how he says "Now what STOP, THINKING ABOUT IT NOW. STOP THINKING ABOUT IT NOW, what STOP are you getting off of?"

  • i like how derren laughs no homo... i wish i was like himm...  Ahh :)

  • omg...i knew from the start the last man will miss to get of,,....i am shoked...

  • Interesting...

  • "stop thinking about it" :p

  • 1:31 "So now that your thinking about it, what stop, thinking about it now, what stop where you gonna get off at?"

    he says "stop thinking about it now" two times.

  • @nprules He doesn't say that to the first guy :P

  • i felt so bad for the poor man missing his stop

  • 0:24 guy looks like Milton from Office Space

    Thumbs up

  • I have made it through enough tricks like this so I don't think of a color that is said, I think of another color. Same object, different color.

  • @misuchiru03

    You say that is what you do but if I told you to think of the color red, you would think of the color red. Just now as you read the word "red" you thought of the color red. It's subconscious. You cannot control it no matter how much you think you can.

    You might think of yellow right after but you still thought of red.

    : )

  • God damn it, he makes me forget too!

  • gotta love the jedi hand thing !

  • This guy is looney. He uses hypnoses to get these people. Looks like spiritualism to me.

  • hahahaha he totally fucked that last guy over xD

  • At 1:35 he says "what stop? thinkin bout it now" which becomes the command: "Stop thinking about it now"

  • @Fredde1Widde (I add) He says to every person that "stop thinking about it", then they stop thinking about it, and when he snaps fingers or whatever they know it again.

  • Comment removed

  • Wow... He says that you will think about a black cat if he says, "Don't think of a black cat" because "think of a black cat" is in there. I disagree. I would think of the black cat because he says black cat. I think of it because black cat is the subject...

  • You don't remember which droids you're looking for.

  • This blog really helped me understand this. It's one of the best blogs I've seen in this area. Just thought it'd help anyone else who's interested. persuasiontechnology.wordpress­(dot)com/

  • holy shit he used the jedi wave thingy lol that actually works???

  • @tupacalypse88 Yep it works for most people =) But some of them with strong mind it's almost impossible to mind control them, but yeah i'm pretty sure you can mind trick most people but not just with the wave thing ^^ there should be couple of words that locks it completely, like in this video when he said: And what stop? What STOP THINK about it, now tell me what stop =) Pretty clever mind trick ey =D

  • 2:34 Jedi Mind Trick FAIL!!!!

  • @masterofpuppies666 you can tell that asshole doesnt even think at all lol

  • lol what an asshole

  • "So if you really think about it now, what "stop thinking about it now", what "stop thinking about it now", are you getting off at?" stop thinking about it now

  • @futurelennon Haha, brilliant observation. good on you.

  • @futurelennon Dude, I knew it had to do with the way he phrased to question. thanks for spelling it out for me

  • OH now i get what he was doing thanks : )

  • @futurelennon Ye obviously, we all see that. But remember, we are looking for it as well, when you just speak with a random guy, you wont be at your guard as well and it might slip at that point (here we all get it as we are trying to find out)

  • @futurelennon thank you! I didn't notice that yet

  • Usually when people recall something their eyes will look to one side. I think he waits for the eyes to move which signals that the brain is accessing the information...by waiving his hand in front of them at that moment it interrupts the thought process. Sort of like going into a room to get something but you get distracted and you forgot what you came in for...so you go back to the other room and suddenly you remember what it was.

  • @Merlyn1978 so eye acsessing cues have smthin to do with this, correct me if im wrong but ifhe does it like u said then he must move fast with the hand wawe for it to work?

  • HES A WITCH! BURN HIM AT THE STAKE!

  • These aren't the droids you're looking for.

  • @daftxpunk77

    Very few people would understand that..

    But thumbs up for the reference.. :)

  • VEry odd!!! WHo knows with this guy!!!1

  • Could have had a V8 :P

  • "What .... stop thinking about it"

  • so cool!!! how he did it?

  • What he does is invade their personal space then invade it more by doing a rude move by flashing his hands in front of their faces which most people view as a hostile act, so when people feel threatened they will focus more on that then remembering where they are going.

  • You telling me this jedi warrior forgot that the last guy was getting off at the next stop? All I know is, in New York, some fool tries this crap on a subway, and he'll end up "forgetting" where his wallet is...

  • what did he say at 2:21-2:29 ? ;ddd

  • Wow. Just from looking at these people's faces i could tell with whom this trick would work and wtih whom not - just by intuitivley estimating the depth of their minds. What's frigging, a vast majority of even intelligent, succesful, good looking people (and also all the other kinds) is plainly stupid in the sense of being flat minded - though intelligent. I see it in their faces and Derren proves it. Shit dude, you're working, contributing, creating...this world, holy moly...all you idiots!

  • @jimjimster16 yea ok lets see you say that to a black persons face, u would get ur ass whooped in 2 seconds u fuckin coward

  • @theworm1244 but black people are racist on youtube too. Really, people who complain about racism on the internet in general are just adding to the shitstorm of stupidity.

  • @theworm1244/ dont let bother you it just the sad side of its life cycle, it choose to think & act this way therefor it is wot its mama witch doctor said it was :-< *&#@! an Asshole

  • I think He may have also chosen people who aren't stopping at their usual stop...

  • @LJAXD welllll he also showed that he failed, it probably works 3/4 because he showed 3 successes and 1 fail obviously hes not stating it has a 100% success rate

  • Jedi mind tricks... I love it I'm going to try this on my friends.

  • I think it's somthing along the lines of...

    They hear, "What stop? Think about it. What stop? Thinking about it." and all the can think of is "What stop? What stop?" and because they're asking themselves the question, it implies subconsciously to themselves that they don't know which stop. If he asked the question directly, without saying "Think about it" in between, they'd be able to remember.

    Dunno, just a theory. God I love this guy.

  • @NovaFoxFM

    I think this is actually NLP neuro linguistic programming! In the sentence "What stop? Thinking about it now" there is the embeded command stop thinking about it now!

  • lmao! I must learn how to do that!

  • Soo cool <333 but I'm confused this is soo weird.

    ~SeliendaSmiles~

  • This is soo true though <3

  • hmm seems like derren picks people who are really dumb . No offence to his skills though

  • This is useless. I want to study real mentalists. Not actors.

  • 2:11

    WTF?

  • how fitting that the last guy was getting off at the next stop after answering the questions. and the camera was placed in almost perfect artistic visual composition, with the name of the stop framed in with the subject. hmmm. i think this guy "brown" may be part of the mind control people that he speaks of. because he himself, on other videos, has implanted people to trick the advertisers. so with that said, whats to stop him from attemting to trick his own viewers. i love this subject.

  • is this real?

  • пиздец я английский ни хуя не знаю!!!

  • @BlackberryKatya хочешь, чтобы я пытался переводить для тебя? ;)

  • I feel sorry for the last guy

  • 2:16 johnny depp !!!!

  • LOL pay attention to what i write this is what he literally said

    What *stop, thinking about it now.*
