  • Is it just me or is the sound totally out of sync with the video?

  • ma vaffanculo

    trad. from italian "fuck yourself"

  • completely fake

  • Derren Brown's hypnosis is incredible. Look at the subtle touch he uses to induce the trance, on the guy's shoulders, moving him around, tapping, then on the torso, the suggestion of impending doom when moving away...

    But it is also definitely possible to do a 1 inch or 0 inch punch with just body mechanics. Not even too difficult. Much easier than what DB is doing!

    Classic vid.

  • Amigos,may be it's fake,really,may be...but take a look at hypnotic techics! Then you can find unbelievable things,really! I think he uses this... we cannot see,but it works...there is enough time to prepare and influence the volontairing person.

  • the old power center/solar plexus shut off.

  • I agree with jaygmui the man drew back a foot.I have experenced real energy masters and the one inch punch is REAL.

  • Bent elbow and extend -- good.

    But not as Taiji -- winding and release.

    However, good enough for this kind to style.

    Jar-yu.

  • lol father of Darth Vader !!!

  • JUST FARTED

  • This is one of those various skills which require first hand experience to be believed. I am skeptical until I experience it as well, but I would point out the amount of time it takes to set up the technique and unlikeliness of the usefulness is defense. Hell, if that guy isn't just putting on a show, there could be something to that whole Chinese medicine thing.

  • Unlike others, Derren Brown never claims to do anything mystical like disrupting Chi and he make's no claims to be a martial artist. In fact he never make's any claims at all other than he plays tricks with the mind, and damned good at it he is. Demonstrations like this are to illustrate how easily some people can be influenced to belive that something is genuinely real and how they unconciously create the end effect themselves. That's why the guy really believes that he's been punched.

  • You are right on with the power of suggestion.

  • The first fellow seemed to have real skill. As to the owner of the guan? Let me see him pull off his trick on other than his own students.

    Seems like bullshit to me.

  • only 1 inch punch is real. the guy who is trying to interupt their chis is fraud

  • fucking lousy asshole!

  • lol this aint a one inch punch. its a 1 foot punch from the chest

  • the first inch punch from the WC guy is real, i dont know about that second bull......maybe they are SO submitted to their master, jedi mind tricks work on them! lol

  • half of that was real.....the other half was bs

  • This is real, these men get hypnotized by the master because they believe so deeply in it.

    and i believe we all share a subconciousness so thats why he still felt it when he was behind him

  • Yeah right....

  • it was quite easy for me to put the flame of a candle out with a punch, it even had a 1.5 inch rim around it making it more difficult than this mans candle. not a surprising feat.

  • thats some freaky shit

  • also this guy from hong kong is a joker, cause that is not even the i inch push that most wing chun guys do (and before you say it it is a push that people do not a punch)

  • unbelievable how many of you retards are shouting how this is fake. Listen to the man he says it is in the "mind" Darren Brown is a neurolinguistic programming professor and exposes the way we percieve the so called supernatural effects. Stupid people stop writing, its lucky no one can be identified cause you should so be removed from the gene pool

  • well then your a pieace of sh*t because thats f**cked up man you dont belive well can you bend your just BLOCKEDing jealous

  • Anyone who believes this would believe in invisible protectors, resurrection, everlasting life, transubstantiation, and eternal damnation for your sins.

  • Dude you yourself are "effin&n nuts to shun old beliefs, but putting out candles and staged kinetics by a British white guy who puts all Eastern beliefs on a pedestal is nothing new. I have witnessed librarians wet their fingertips and snuff candles out. Also, the bigger the guy the $%effin harder and painful it is when he smashes your chest clavicle with his fists during round circle. Smaller guys are WAY more welcomed. No camera tricks and dubbed sounds will ease the impact.

  • Nuts to shun old beliefs? Nothing ever changes? New information and techniques are bad? Are you typing on a computer or an Underwood? I have nothing against TCMA. This guy's a faker.

  • timdnml, I'm definitely agreeable to your msg and idea, 100% right, I did type on an Underwood and now the PC keybroad, TCMA is a treasure !!! lots of injuries done in sparring are later identified as TUMOR,

  • If this is a wing chun teacher, why is the video titled "tai chi - one inch punch"? Doh!

  • Wasted of time! //.//

  • derren brown (not darren) is a psychologist. as he said, it's all in the mind. he's not trying to say tai chi is wrong or anything, but everything he does is about neuro-linguistic programming, suggestion, and similar psychological tricks. he says this in every episode of his shows. it's not fake and he's never met the people he does it on, but everything he does is about psychology, not martial arts or anything else. he's very honest about that, and wants to challenge our perceptions of it all

  • wtf? this is the fakest bullsh*t ive ever seen. i want 3 mins of my life back. damn

  • only the fool believes in a dream.....

    and this video is of course a fantastic movie which make us dream.

    if you need that to train, its your problem.

    but i have pity for the one who beleive that.

  • total bull shit!!! this really is what gives real kung fu a bad name!

  • that wasntr an inch tho, that was more like a foot

  • i think he just used the same technique

  • You are absolutely correct...I have never

    seen anyone who does it properly like Bruce Lee did

  • bruce used upper body strengh bud

  • fake

  • Its Not fake

  • 'tis not crap its called "qi" and it far more powerful than using physical strength .....but it takes toooooooo much time to muster this skill.

  • What was stated some months back was that Darren Brown is very good with Neuro-linguistic Programming. He uses the hand-shake (hypnotic) induction to its fullest. He's developed it into many different forms.

  • I Understand Why Ppl Would Think Its Fake...Doesnt Seem Possible, But Is Very Much Real....

  • pfft its not fake, if you only knew whats possible to do...

  • Who CAN'T punch out a candle flame with that distance? :|

  • u cant

  • Actually I can punch out two.

  • If i use my wang i can punch out three.

  • What a load of crap.

  • fake

  • actually all these no touch thingg is not fake, BUT it can only make an effect for those who practice some sort of CHI gong, that will actually makes each other 'feel', however it may not work on those who don't practice martial arts/ Chi gong, as the frequency is not the same.

  • fake fake fake.... and fake

  • wtf! monsters!!!!!

  • First, the HK man isn't doing a 'one-inch' punch. He pulled all the waaayyyy back to deliver the punch.

    Second, the candle flame looked to much of a fluke.

    Third, this 'Darren Brown' comes from...where? Has his power been proven by others beside this group of martial arts students who also look like part-time paid actors/ actresses??

  • Go torrent his shows. You'll be quite amazed.

  • Wow !!! is ths some kind of trick or does it really work ?? seriously ace though

  • f**king Incredible , please put here more Vids of this show or what ever it is.
