[wyrley96]

I did this to my friends-- they believed it but one of my friends were too scared of the ivan dude to even look at the screen.

umm guys! to whoever gets the answers wrong -you can get all three right easily...

didn't you know?! LOL

its all where you click the play button. haha

[pepilupis]

[funnyman1995103]

[siliondragos]

lol..I chose exactly like the girl..I thought is something paranormal:))

[tytan576]

i did this watched the girl in the hidden camera and i was getting all of the shapes before she said them and got them right? How is that?

[HaNsEL091]

i swear before i saw how it was done i picked the same shapes!!!!!!! i though the trick was that people somehow picked them in that order.

[zar8752]

5:03 =3 with a combover

[sitdownmommy123]

where can you do it?

[xsobbingx]

@sitdownmommy123 theres a link in the description

[bkendall71]

ok, so tell me how I knew all of the ones in the video? I said everything right before the girl said it?

[LionessInAComa]

@bkendall71 L or L? Lucky or lying. 

[bkendall71]

@LionessInAComa totally luck lol. :( but it happened and for just a minute I was cool.

[lawrie90]

Tried this on everyone in my class today. Fooled everyone and no one could work it out what was really happening! :D

[cousins4ever1231]

i done that to my brother and it didnt work this is fake it is set up

[epiphyticsab]

@cousins4ever1231 Then most obviously you haven't the intelligence of an egg shell and are incapable of counting to five. Of COURSE it's fake and a set up! It's a TRICK moron!! If you can't follow the simple instructions given on the site given you should not even be allowed at the keyboard of a computer, and I'm quite surprised you can even spell!!

[elliesinger101]

watch the whole video, if you cant work that out ur stuipidd

[mratkins89]

Is it weird I chose exactly the same images as the girl?...Who's psychic now bitch?

[ncripzx]

@mratkins89 so did i

[woollard09]

@mratkins89 same here

[deamon4444]

@mratkins89 me too

[pianodemon66]

@mratkins89 

Me too :o

[PhoenixEternia]

@mratkins89 Haha so did I. thats why I continued to watch to see if it was subliminal messages or suggestive body language by the video... weird.

[TheMostObsceneMuffin]

I know a majority of you wont believe this...but when i first watched this video, i played along with the "old" video, and i actually guessed them right D: and when they explained how the play button works, i was genuinely freaked the fuck out that i managed to get them right without being on the proper video... yet again i know you wont believe it but still >.<

[dmagive]

weird thing is i guessed the same 3 while watchin this :) ha , and of course no-one else in the room with me

[P4KiiST4N]

lol i thought it was a mic with voice recognition :)

[TheRammo]

@P4KiiST4N me 2 haha

[conorman30]

thumbs up if u think that this is the best trick EVARRRRRRRR

[iTimoleagueDuck]

=3 sorry but that made me laugh XD

[KuqEZiAlbo]

OH GOD! this has got to be one of the most amazing fake magic tricks EVERR just did three to my family members and they all fell for it!!! LOVEE ITT!

[TheCajunpenguin]

this video is 3 years old...?

[chrislongden4]

@TheCajunpenguin No, your maths skills are those of a 3 year old though. 2011 -> 2009 = 2 years ago :p

[TheCajunpenguin]

@chrislongden4 haha woops

[survive2live2die]

@chrislongden4 I'm gonna guess he hit the wrong button....I dont want to believe people are that stupid

[chrislongden4]

@survive2live2die Unfortunately there are people that stupid in the world. I still get people PM'ing me questions like "How do I upload videos" and asking questions on my comments like "What is the name of the song" - when it's in both the title of the video, the description, and within the video as text.

I lost faith in humanity being an intelligent species a long time ago :p

[sanfranchick]

that's so cool!!!! but it's really weird that i managed to guess the right ones with the girl in the video!!! haha...

[11Sparky111]

This is too weird. How does it work? I tried it myself and got all 3 right.

[DiamondRappingZebra]

@11Sparky111

Haven't you watched this flipping video!

[MrEeqqee]

lol...hey im in marks and spencers! XD. Good trick, i love it

[Ovvenchips]

lol, how can anyone fail at this?!?!! xD

[ushievans]

This is really clever. Doing it to loads of people on friday!! :)

[ThePodPeople]

didnt get the last two

[Thandii94]

@ThePodPeople did u watch the whole video...it depends on where u press the play button. its a trick to play on your mates -.-

[AddictForTheArts]

i didnt get the last one

[YOUDUDE56]

i played it and i got none right....

[iPwnYouNoobsx]

@YOUDUDE56 haha please tell me youre kidding

[fightinandirish]

Perfect cos april fools day joke! XD

[KingSmokeAlot187]

i want 3:41 back of my life i feel like i've just walked into a strangers car and feel pissed once he starts driveing but u hope its all gunna be good WELL IT WASNT and if i did get ina strangers car i would be dead but if ur smart ur relise im a little illiteret and this took me 4mins to type so i am here and very HIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[epiphyticsab]

@KingSmokeAlot187 Hope you're proud of yourself ass wipe. I'm sure your parents are.

[NUFCgeordiemug]

God I did this on my mam and my auntie and I dont have it in me to tell them it is a joke becaus ethey are going around saying they knew they have always been physic and that it runs in their blood.... lol my mum thinks shes to high and mighty to make me my tea now :p

[robandis]

Can you get this to play in fullscreen as I haven't been given the option, there must be a trick.

[Js5s141]

I like how she's like "yeah! the square at the start", totally cool with it. Yet by the end she's like I AM THE DEVIL.

[PodBot]

I guessed all of those as well

[lpspgameplay]

look at 5:36 he says 'left hand corter' lmfao corner u mean ;D?

[Marctronx500]

@lpspgameplay he said quarter lol

[simondw2000]

@lpspgameplay he said quarter not corter lmfao

[MrNotJoker]

@lpspgameplay he says quarter

[mattserria117]

I guessed it every time... WHAT THE HELL

[mattserria117]

I guest the square, what the hell!

[epiphyticsab]

@mattserria117 WOW......one out of four! Can all say......LUCKY GUESS. DUH!!

[WoblivionW]

OMG the first test i said square and it worked!

[Ralphc1000]

All very well and clever, however, I guseed them all correctly without the cheating girl.

[Blueman2805]

@Ralphc1000 The odds of guessing all three correctly by chance are 0.008% - that's 1 time in 12,500 attempts. If the number of people who CLAIMED in the comments for this video to have guessed the three shapes correctly actually had guessed them all correctly, that would be significant statistical proof for ESP.

And yet, no one has ever claimed the millions of dollars in prize money for proving it exists. Look up the one million dollar paranormal challenge. No one has ESP.

[difficultbastard]

Why would someone believe (even if they believed in esp) that thought waves would come out of pre-recorded message. I'm amazed that people still haven't learned about tricks like these, even after seeing similar tricks on telly numerous times over the years. Most people just don't use that brain of theirs' do they.

[MarcusM1995]

It just convinces them your lucky, nothing else

[seaniehdt]

i guessed the star and then the square lol

[Rozelyna]

i guessed the same as the girl as well! x

[francisthorrington]

I thought i'd play along with the video and guessed the same shapes as the girl in this. Dumb luck.

[TheGenetic1]

shit trick ..

[xenojobeia]

is it just me or can anyone else not fullscreen the actual trick video cuz if u cant then its pretty retarded with ads for other tricks sitting next to it and a big bbc3 logo hanging above

[Danperch]

I went on the website first without watching this video and it didnt guess my choices (coz I didnt know the secret) but then I watched this video and it freaked me out becuase I chose the same ones as the girl and I thought that was the trick, but no it has to be a cheap thing of clicking play. Still fun though :D

[PyroChemicals2]

no offense but this is a pretty mediocre trick

[xenojobeia]

@PyroChemicals2 bet your one of them miserable fuckers who take the fun out of everything

[PyroChemicals2]

@xenojobeia No, I'm just one of the people who performs these tricks. They're not very creative. 

[TheTastyPineapple]

why is the faggot on the right wearing makeup?

[MattCrinos]

Lol... =3

[TheRecommended]

Haha good one guys, it works great.

[8Julius8]

lol... 'He's fit isn't he?' oh lasses XD

[DonHanzo]

lol did anybody notice that its actually barry and stuart in the video?

[narutofan4lif]

i did this myself and i didn't even know the play buttont trick and when i clicked play i was right eveytime aww lol i thought i was special. That guy in the chair kinda freaked me outh though

[RyansAnimeAndManga]

thumbs up if you failed the test xD

[FtBiscuit]

@scribblesonapage Probably.. It's more amusing thinking it's a chair though.

[StealthDonkey007]

how would an old VHS video automatically pause? But I suppose anyone who notices that was probably not going to fall for the trick anyway.

[DiamondRappingZebra]

i did it my parents and told them how it works,

they were dead dissapointed, reallly, thet were.

[Gladiator310]

i also picked all of the girl's card

[cmak5]

i figured it out by the last one!

[valentazz]

watching that girls i played with they to and guess all by my self pretty cool a?

[SnappyPenguins]

That video is creepy as hell! i can't build up the nerve to watch it!

[TheKomets4]

=3!

[shaunpeds]

yore awenome

[adofri]

why not make ppl think that youre the psychic one not them lol

[HmongSteven]

omfg i love this so much i did this to my sister she was like "wtf?!?!?!" how the fuck i do that!! LOLLLLL i love u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FtBiscuit]

Whats the guy doing to the chair at 7:08..? Heheh.

[MrDubinurface]

@FtBiscuit it's a bed

[TomStraub]

@FtBiscuit

I believe he was bouncing up and down on it.

[xopenheartx]

@FtBiscuit testing it I hope, lol

[clark144]

@FtBiscuit testing a bed

[epiphyticsab]

@FtBiscuit Look again....it's not a chair but a bed.

[FtBiscuit]

@epiphyticsab Don't ruin it.. :(

[SnowBriggade]

The Vavy Vines.

[XXKidBeybladerXX]

my grandma thinks she's physic im gonna make her win on this XD

[stompy310]

Like DVSnmeSON said. FUCKING BRILLIANT!!!!

[stompy310]

THIS REALLY GOT MY MOM! This is awesome.

[DVSnmeSON]

fucking brilliant!!!!! kudos Barry and Stuart!

[TheMultiwilliam]

how did they make the play button like that

[SnappyPenguins]

@TheMultiwilliam It wasn't them that created the play button, the BBC had already done it for them.

[RetroSnipa]

i was wondering why she kept clicking on the corners and not the center

[caine1993]

man.....so so coolllll..............=)

[haybuhaymakulay]

i guessed the 1st and 3rd shapes correct in this video (when they were doing the prank on the chick.) but im no psychic its all luck haha

[noahdavinci]

i gessed it the play button was suspishus

2:33 its pretty oveeus

[whitehousemagic]

Thanks for posting that! I like it.

[bubbles43v3]

I GUESSED ALL OF THOSE SHAPES!!!!!!

[felix242]

I tried this on myself. I'm psychic too! yaaaay

[DanielleandJasmine]

saw you at thorpe park last night you were wicked !! :)

[jimmytube717]

very good :)

[XPhantomPhreekX]

It's just sad seeing them get all excited, makes you remember all over again..how inferior humans really are..

[Pomme843]

@XPhantomPhreekX How is the inferiority of humans sad? I think it's amusing

[XPhantomPhreekX]

@Pomme843: You are absolutely right, in my mind "Interesting & Amusing" fully defines the fragile and inferior existence of humans..I'm starting to sound like an alien - . -'

[Pomme843]

@XPhantomPhreekX Taking on a potensial mentality or perspective of an extra-terrestial sapient being can be very useful when observing humans. Useful and amusing. Much like "Lettres persanes" by Montesquieu.

[XPhantomPhreekX]

@Pomme843: You sure are an interesting guy, we share the same thought processes.

[Pomme843]

@XPhantomPhreekX Haha, thanks! Good to hear there are like-minded out there. Lawls from Oslo.

[Roan1414]

Why do they keep calling #3 wavy lines, when it's clearly Bacon.

[dookiebabii]

well actually, while watching this video, i was also thinking square as my first guess and cross as my second. My mind was blown! anyone thought the same shapes too?

[notunid]

@dookiebabii same here ..

[midge2112]

that was awesome!

[grannysvids]

i got the first one right but got the last 2 wrong, if you look at the background in the video, you will see suggestions of the shapes.

i ignored these and chose something else

[komninosm]

@grannysvids you're an idiot...

[grannysvids]

@komninosm

yes i was that day, put this comment on before finishing the whole video and was clicking away.

cheers

[komninosm]

@grannysvids your reply has humbled me. I apologize if I offended you.

[grannysvids]

@komninosm

no offence taken,

peace.

[Jalapeanut]

it works perfectly fine...why are there so many comments of it not?

[xxxKittyWinxxx]

stuarts hair looks different!! he's cute! well ,kinda..

[Qaprielle]

the scary part was that I chose the exact same cards that the girl did

[Architectonic01]

@Qaprielle

Given the thousands of people who have watched this, it is expected that some will guess all the same cards.

[tacos656]

I did this to myself, the video was wrong every time.

[BIGT4170]

@tacos656 someone has to do it to u. thats the trick

[footballroxs101]

im so gonna do this

[MaruYamazaki]

It only worked on the 2nd time for me :\

[iSpeed09]

TRYIN IT!!!!!

[lavaskull13]

do u have to tell them that is was a trick

[tomatoe58]

this is so awesome! hahaha i did it to my sister and she was going crazy but then i did it to my dad and even tho he was born in colombia like me hes an ingenier and didnt fall for it

[T3hTroll]

I was watching the video of her choosing the cards and i chose all of the girl's cards o_______o

I thought THAT was the trick.. as if the thing flashed...

I just MindFudged myself.

[pauldan90]

@T3hTroll noo fkn wayy that just happend to mee

[T3hTroll]

@pauldan90 We're magical.

[simpelsick]

@T3hTroll i just experienced the same thing lol

[dookiebabii]

@T3hTroll me too buddy! i was starting to freak out! what is the meaning of this?

[frenchguy09]

@T3hTroll me too , now I'm like wtf..I thought that everyone would choose the same shapes but when he explained it i was amazed i got everything the girl chose right.

[T3hTroll]

@frenchguy09 xD mindfucked 

[1989blewis]

@T3hTroll

hmm.. The odds of someone doing that are 0.8%, and with 233041 views the probability is that 1864 people had the same expierience. Not that crazy really.

[pekitivey]

@T3hTroll ya same with me!!! -__-

i think somthing is going on here!!!

[demoninstincts]

I got my friend... He punched me :(

[Mrfitrider1]

these guys are irish or scottish?

[18916]

@Mrfitrider1 the guy on the right sound scottish and the left guy sounds irish
