The second one was practically the same thing, pacing/leading "It is down there", "That's the tower over there", "You'll be happy to give that to me", then, since the guy wasn't quite there yet, Derren gave him a handshake interrupt, one more pace during the interrupt, hands him the bottle and leads for the stuff. He paces some more and walks away.
This was done with a nested loop (to start), non-verbal pacing (the entire time), then from here on out it was PACE PACE PACE LEAD. The first lead is the suggestion "you'll be happy to give that to me". Then PACE PACE PACE LEAD, the second lead "Can I [just give that] just grab your wallet off you?" contained an embedded command in the bracket. That second lead combined a technique (Reciprocation, from Cialdini's Influence Page 18). Then he paces twice more to keep his guard down and walks away
It actually works. You have to pick someone you don't know though. Be friendly, and copy their movements (like how he did in the video with the pointing) and be in sync. Then ask them to hold the water bottle (to preoccupy them) and ask nicely for whatever it is you want. Just keep being friendly and confident, honest looking. However, you do have to have a little experience in it. It probably won't work the first couple times. I know this from experience (though I always gave it back). (^ ^)
@entehrend It's not actors. You'd be suprised how hard it would be to make a televisionshow and manage to fake it without no one in the staff outing it. Plus, I've met several mentalists who can do it. Just because it's entertaining, and you've never experienced it, it doesn't mean it's fake. Widen your horizon mate.
Oooh Yes! this one is a classic one of my all time faves!!! I love doing a variation on this trick with food granted i do pay for it eventually but its fun to see how long it takes for them to snap out of it if you don't help :P
For the last one I bet if he asked for money instead of the wallet then he would have won the scam. Sometimes the term "wallet" can set of an alarm because of the issues it represents to poeple. And if it doesn't set off an "alarm" for you then you probably have never experienced losing it ;-)
I love how he gets the second guy a second time. "Can I just grab the others off you so I can... keep them?" So good. Also note, that he could probably make a better get away by simply allowing them to keep the anchor, the water bottle, as he walks off. The reactions are all great though. Take about six steps and get this look like "I'm pretty sure that dude just robbed me". The best part though? The fat dude that watches the second guy get robbed and doesn't say anything.
in the second one the little girl looks at the camera and smile and waved at the camera, so u can see this has been a set-up cause if the little girl notice the camera he would to notice it.
it fucking works you dont even have to use all the steps either i used to do it all the time in highschool without noticing what i was doing just people used to listen to me and do whatever i wanted got me laid more than enough and made a few bucks
The mind is truly amazing. There was game in my math class one time and my math teacher offered me something. I said i didnt want and he waved it in front of my face saying "you don't have to take it" and I started to reach for it. Before I grabbed it I came to my senses, but it was just like so natural, it was weird.
derren brown is the one man with the most balls in the world i mean to literally walk up to someone in the middle of the day with hundreds of witnesses and steal their stuff.... that takes balls.
@068ant This is one more reason to avoid strangers. I'm glad I saw this video. Now I will just shut my ears and run when a stranger tries to ask for my help. Most people are worthless anyway. So what they have to say doesn't matter.
@1danyol1 haha yea. i'm guessing that according to what derren says, he makes the guy think he was helping derren by "holding his stuff" for him. so the guy gets confused and thinks that those items are actually derren's. funny stuff
@YuneShik he actually anchored the *state of confusion* to the water bottle. so when he gave the guy the water bottle, he was back in that trance-like state, open to suggestion.
He gets them to be suggestible with the constant barrage of suggestions and then says - "You don't mind me asking that do you? no, You're happy to give them to me" suggesting that they don't mind him asking for their property and they are happy to give them over to him.
at 2:23 , he gives the guy who's watching some signal (to leave?), just as the car is passing, and the man is on his way when the cars gone. i wonder if he was 'controlled' as well...
wow, I wish he would explain it... but it is probably something less clever than we think. Verbal distraction and not focusing on your hands and movements. Of course darren makes it look easy.
As I'm watching this, I'm thinking, "No freakin' way! That'd never work on me." I couldn't believe he was getting away with that. It's amazing. But psychology is funny. You never think anything would work on you. People are fooling themselves if they think they are immune to brainwashing.
@Peregar4ik how many times have you left a card with an employee because you were busy picking up your McDonalds to go? He distracts them, exchanges the water (social convention) and confuses them both with the question and then socially with the "you don't mind me asking" which completely throws off their thought pattern. It's no wonder they're disoriented.
I don't actually know, why he calls it 'Russian scam', 'cause in my opinion one would get spanked if try it in Russia, believe me, I live in this country :))))).........nevertheless it's quite a good video, although, I don't think it works all the time: there are just different types of people....And of course don't try to repeat ))))))))
it works.. maybe 1% of the time? he just has to do it 200 times, and then show both times before showing one failure? he aims not to trick those people, but his audience. remember that. this way, he can still safely say that it wasn't staged.
Sorry to say, but far more than 1% of the time...It's hard to believe but people will do what you tell them far far more than you would think...as long as you tell them the right way.
for more info theres always wikipedia which will tell you it all including he's gay and came out the clost in 2007 so dont judge your book by the cover
I am often dishonest in my techniques, but always honest about my dishonesty. As I say in each show, 'I mix magic, suggestion, psychology, misdirection and showmanship'. I happily admit cheating, as it's all part of the game. I hope some of the fun for the viewer comes from not knowing what's real and what isn't. I am an entertainer first and foremost, and I am careful not to cross any moral lines
i guess so, but it also looks like the ppl are also kinda stupid or inebriated. I wouldn't ever do it. in fact I feel far more aware of whats happening when im on my own
@frankovich213 Well, it might only be a subtle difference, but I noticed that for the two that this worked on, he asked the question, "You don't mind me asking, do you?", followed by, " You;re happy to give that to me". These are both suggestions that he skipped with the last woman. He just tried to jump right into the bottle swap and asking for the wallet.
@frankovich213 That's what religious cults also target the most. The moonies for example are more willing to strike up a conversation with a single person than with a couple on the street.
@frankovich213 it could be that her friend was the leader/ held more power in their little group, so she was less receptive to an outside person taking control since she had someone who already had the control
that is true. russian scam is based on confusion and subconcious order.
when you are confused you are looking for answer in your environment. if you are alone, the only thing you can think about is darrens subconcious order "can i grab your wallet" but, whenever you r with frineds, u can look for information with them and the order is weaker.
sorry for my terrible english. i hope you understood
i am NLP practitioner myselfe. learning for master practitioner degree.
darren use NLP alot.
but he is exeptionaly good and he is inventing and adds magics and hipnosis to his shows. only sometimes i can understand what he does. i am not skilled as he is.
Thats awesome, i watched it twice then got it, when he asks him in the context of directions "you dont mind giving that to me" thats when he taps into his mind, that was the NLP or whatever it is.
Gonna take a guess on the first one as him noticing the tan line on the guy's arm where a watch should be, and then asking for the time, which the guy reflexively looks for, but can't find.
The interupt for the second is the strange handshake that he does and grabs the guy's wrist with his other hand. Then when he hands the guy the water, it probably sets up an expectation in the guy's mind to give something back to Derren.
The extra person spoiled the last one. She looked to him, he said "NO"
has nothing to do with intellect... their conscious minds are distracted and in that moment of confusion the conscious mind tries to grab hold of something that makes sense and a door is open and the unconscious mind will accept any commands it is given "you don't mind giving it to me" people who accept these commands are actually very smart people... and are good at taking directions...
I don't believe that a thing like this could happen. It's illogical! If somebody asks me for my wallet I wouldn't give it to him! which mechanisms could ever occur in a situation like this?
If u can do it too, describe me the main steps because I can't see where's the trick here.
well, you build rapport with them, keep them distracted with the directions, hand them something small and ask for something of theirs, and surprisingly they give it to you!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow

He always performs wearing a suit and perform on people that are never in suit. It raises his social level. You won't see him

Of course his embeded commands, his elocution, his voice, the confusion he creates etc... are very important but his suit is as important.

Thats awesome, i watched it twice then got it, when he asks him in the context of directions "you dont mind giving that to me" thats when he taps into his mind, that was the NLP or whatever it is.

This has to be a set up, surely people aren't this stupid
azamatmankini 2 years ago
its not stupidity, its the ability to slip past the conscience mind, it happens all the time, even when we dont realize.
Does anyone know what the pattern break is in this? I think its when he interrupts him after asking for the time?

Gonna take a guess on the first one as him noticing the tan line on the guy's arm where a watch should be, and then asking for the time, which the guy reflexively looks for, but can't find.
The interupt for the second is the strange handshake that he does and grabs the guy's wrist with his other hand. Then when he hands the guy the water, it probably sets up an expectation in the guy's mind to give something back to Derren.
The extra person spoiled the last one. She looked to him, he said "NO"

has nothing to do with intellect... their conscious minds are distracted and in that moment of confusion the conscious mind tries to grab hold of something that makes sense and a door is open and the unconscious mind will accept any commands it is given "you don't mind giving it to me" people who accept these commands are actually very smart people... and are good at taking directions...

actually it's real. ive done it on many people and about 80% of the time it does work. building rapport is the key.

I don't believe that a thing like this could happen. It's illogical! If somebody asks me for my wallet I wouldn't give it to him! which mechanisms could ever occur in a situation like this?
If u can do it too, describe me the main steps because I can't see where's the trick here.

well, you build rapport with them, keep them distracted with the directions, hand them something small and ask for something of theirs, and surprisingly they give it to you!

"These aren't the droids you're looking for" *handwave*
"You're happy to give that to me?"
I see no difference. Derren Brown is a Jedi.
A joking aside, that is some pretty clever stuff.

in the beginning of the convo when he's about to shake hands he keeps saying "you don't mind me asking, you are happy to give me that to me"
so basically he implies the weird thing he is about to do up front.
