Barry and Stuart - Three Wise Men

[gurjiwanisdumb]

It is simple. If the first man said blue or white they would say for blue or white to go. For the emotions if sad was chosen thet would say for sad to leave and so on

[Frostdrgn2]

@gurjiwanisdumb but they say before "which one you want to keep" 1:04

[Taizame]

Some are happy...

Some are mad...

And some are BLOWJOB FACES :D

[ac1th]

Subconscious decisions are not influenceable by sneaking words in sentences or pausing shortly. They do these things to imply that's how they did it, but it's impossible as long as you don't have a perfect understanding of all memories and all association processes of a person. They have to use camera tricks, forces and lies to get to the final result.

[nmngirl]

hahhahaha, i saw the handshake, at first i was like wtf, then it was awesome

[AnnieBFFL]

ahahahahahah lol the handshake is so funny

[megapower991]

here's how they made them pick the right one

1.paper bags are always brown plus with the black guy the picking another would look racist

2. every1 likes happy faces

3. here's a tricky one he said at 3:23 slip you a "fiver" and when he counted he paused at 5 for a sec, plus 5 ppl will leave when he picks it!

[TheAdrokk]

@megapower991 You sir, are off your meds, cause that makes NO sense at all

[megapower991]

@TheAdrokk first of all im a girl, second what do you mean no sense?specify yourself

[TheAdrokk]

@megapower991 Well not all the bags are brown, and even if they were that doesn't explain why he picked brown. And what the hell does his race have to do with his choice. Your last point seems to make the most sense but I still don't think that's how they did it

[megapower991]

@TheAdrokk look i have a different point of view than you and i didnt came up with this, my friend did. ask her... maybe

[CarnaTiges713]

Okay, I changed my mind, thought it was less random. Faces - he's fucking smiling amazngly much

Number - he says "I didn't slip you a FIVEr"

Bags - Glowing lights on each blue and white bag. They are all brown?

[DKzain23]

@CarnaTiges713 i think they are using NLP or hypnotism to guide them to choose the right one.. but i dnt know if hypnotism is real or not.

[CarnaTiges713]

@002cjcarl I reckon you got the first part right but your other two are far too random

[CarnaTiges713]

He can't do this by making his decision for him through little tricks and subliminal messages, there's no way that would've had a 100% chance of working

[MrMZaccone]

Decisions are by definition, not random.

[Chelsearox532]

38 people suffocated with a bag on their head.

[ulriksj]

Wtf....every time they asked who they wanted to stay, they said exactely what I was thinking of...Brown, Happy, and nr.5

[Vesivian]

fake

[PivotBeguiner]

@Vesivian

It is, all magic tricks are fake. If you see a magic trick thinking that is true, you should try to not spend to much time in the dream world.

[DrPenguin4280]

Blue, Surprised, 4# too. LOL 2juli4

[CarnaTiges713]

@DrPenguin4280 Yup same

[xxxxxrandom]

affecting mind with sublimal messages

[freereg29]

its all in the subconcious

[2juli4]

i would have picked blue, surprised, #4

[M3xicanAmerican1]

Super awesome handshake at 0:43 seconds

[Parklout]

It's alot about HOW you name one of the options differently from the others and

small indications.

[dembumboclot]

He also makes him choose the happy faces by telling ham that he shouldn't talk to strangers. It would be natural to choose open and friendly strangers instead of unfriendly

[11melonhead]

i just knew he was gonna take the borringest color :P brown... there old wise men :3

i totaly knew they wer gonna take happy :P

but i would taken blue and the surprised face :3 cuz blue is my fav color......

but i would have also chosen nnumber 5.... somehow it attracted my attention... and when he says "5" he takes a quik stop then says 6

[makmamum]

hahahaha

[genericaction]

i think it would be hilarious if they did the same thing except the last person wasn't famous they just pretended he was

[blackMark001]

who is he?

[choco963852741]

i really dont understand this one?

[Xyan11]

No idea who he is.. lol

[xAyad3]

Kinda scary, hehe.

[grendelee]

Love this trick, just like the old pick a number one through ten trick. Always fun, because theres no trick, its just the way people think. Its awesome

[ThePaneityCollectiv]

i honestly wouldve said blue, surprised, #3

[DefiantSpirit86]

also No.5 was the tallest among them so he was standing out....Usually we pick the one that stands out as it catches more our attention... XD

[jmhoelzel1]

dumb as hell

[allofyour10]

as ma magician, this trick is very simple, and none of you people got it right...

[toShoutAloud]

i think there was at least 5 famous people in there that they didn't recognize just in case they didn't screw up the magic trick :D bah, im just assuming.

[SlimZj]

@tomdewilde That's what I was thinking while I was watching however that's some chance they'd be taking.

[TheKaitlinrocks13]

i dont belive it they got told wat to say :( ugh lol

[maej9700]

how many do know of them???

SO MANY, not one of them !!!!!! 1:33

[Zzarch]

@twistjoviluvsjonas Fiver is what some people call a 5 dollar bill

[SuperTwitch92]

@twistjoviluvsjonas no he says fiver, as in a five quid note

[d4m4s74]

I expected foxy

[narutosponge]

they do allot of things that are in the bible

[124c312]

@5:25 OMG! JESUS!

[mojogitfiddle]

These guys are sheer genuis. I am a pro magician working right now at a casino in spokane. Never made it big but making a living. These guys ROCK. The solution to their awesome routine is not as important as the total raw uniquiness (sp) in the presentation. I will not give out any info on their method but will say if you think it was anything other than a magic trick as they admit up front in their presentation, proves that they are true magicians.

[onewayhooligan55]

the choices weren't obvious... i would have choose the surprised faces... and the blue bags... so... :/

[ReallyGoodFeting]

I actually picked the same choices as they did

[lildanny390]

fkae but cool but fake but cool...........but fake lol

[browneyedgirl16]

i still do not get it someone explain it to me

[Beler0f0ntes]

i made same choices as the 3 wise man before they answer and I chose the same thing...interesting

[linDorko]

Wow... (O.0)

[mouhaahaahaa]

Dont you meen... two wise men and a normal random black guy? :)

[ThaRommer]

@mouhaahaahaa Breakin my balls dude.. not cool, not cool.

[kingsam3241]

number 5 was the talliest one

[kochos777]

also barry said richard grant after he saw his face...maybe that had somethin 2 do with it

[kochos777]

number 5 is standing slightly further forward than every1 else

[Devine5496]

Nice tricks, poor actors

[mustafakhalil]

lol we are fucked. they got us by the balls.

[cstoly1]

so so easy. couldn't yo hear the verbal forces? it's the same as how derren brown does it. listen to the voice tonality. and no its not about chance.

[firesyke]

i would like to say good magic doesn't rely on probability. What magician does a trick in the hopes that it will work? even if it is a 90% chance.

[henrytakeover]

2:21 666

dun dun duuuuhh

[1234crack4321]

lol dont talk to strangers

[1234crack4321]

@henrytakeover 777 you will see soon enough

[chooeychoco003]

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!unbelie­vable!!!!!!!!!!LOL

[09elijoen10]

wow.. how did this happen @_@!!!!!!

[superpro100]

count the brown ones at the first part then they say have 18 browns. I think he was wearing multiple hats

[ZxSarabxZ]

@superpro100 multiple hats as in 9 hats all on togather ? what if he had to take off one hat that has other hats on top of it ? cant u ppl just agree that its real lol xP

[Pablothe]

love the double hand giving

[RamoRM07]

teehee

[fuckthis10100]

who?

[nightmareonthestreet]

richard e grant......he is an actor one of his greatest movies was withnail and i and his worst....spice girls the movie

[WyattWhiteberry]

Erm, who is the guy at the end under the paper bag? I don't recognize the name

[NallePu83]

It`s Jesus

[benbria]

it's easy if they tell them the white they still have the choice to either eliminate evryone else or just the chosen color and like that it seemed like the victime had the choice but no they forced the choice

it's an old card trick

[Streetheatre]

@benbria That's rubbish. Watch the video again. For the color segment, the "magicians" clearly ask beforehand, "which color do you want to KEEP?" It's not simply a matter of "pick a color" without telling the wise men what's gonna be done with the color.

As for the six remaining, the person chosen by the wise man is the one kept onstage, just as with the colors.

Of course, this entire display depends on us believing that this was not in fact prearranged, which we really have no way of knowing.

[StanMovies]

@Streetheatre you won!

[qwaszxerta]

one of those new color tvs?

[samhello1]

That was fucking stupid

[RemusLupo]

@samhello1

no u

[hojunyang]

fuck yourself

[yamacry]

i know how its made its like a card trick...but to complicated to explain

[Griz899]

yeah I think I know too. they forced the decisions.

[RemusLupo]

@yamacry

aw come on if u no say it dont just dangle it around like that

[yorkie720]

nice chains Stuart

[mikanyay]

Doctor - Happy faces

[CarnaTiges713]

@mikanyay He's not a doctor genius, that's what his degree in ENGINEERING is called -.-

[ramzajimmy]

corny! yawning

[RemusLupo]

@ramzajimmy thanks for that info

[TFADANGERZONE]

i would have blue suprised faces

[Turkeymint]

The way it works is by the recent stuff that Derren Brown has been working on its just simple psychology by minipulating people to choose the things you want them to choose 'tomdewilde1' is completly right in his suggestions its all to do with the psychology of the people they chose and helping to influence their decisions, still very very clever though!

[jovansiboa]

not funny

[tomdewilde1]

1. Paper Bags are (always) Brown, but lets also place the African professor next to him to put him under Social Pressure

2. We prefer Smiley Faces over others, so we keep those as well

3. The tricky part - 6 choices - how to influence his choice and make him pick number 5?

- 3:20 we didn't slip you a 'fiver' ?

- 4:00 a short stop at 5 when he did the counting

- 5 is also the number of people that will have to leave the stage after the number is picked

Source: Comments below ;-)

[icebox582]

ur good

[Supermanisafaggit]

I'd have chosen surprised faces tbh.

[luwuhl]

i would have chosen the surprised faces haha

[gabi2191]

yeah I was thinking the african thing, and their all 'doctors' so happy faces is reasonable. I just couldn't figure out the five..

[Balanar6236]

@tomdewilde1 And now you feel lucky punk? xD

[slasherguitarmaster]

@tomdewilde1 very very smart man you are...I was thinking the same things

[tomdewilde1]

@slasherguitarmaster Nah, not really, like i said at the bottom: "source: comments below" ;-)

+ number 5 is the biggest guy in line

+ he's also just a bit more standing forward then the others.

[Sebweb85]

@tomdewilde1 you also gotta look at how much stuart was smiling, that would put the idea of a happy face in your head

[1234qwerty1234ful]

@tomdewilde1.. are you sure?? why dont you do it... to prove it

STUPID!!!

[qwertzuio53]

@tomdewilde1 but diferent people could prefer diferent smiles

[rockgurl1218]

im sure there are little holes in the bags

[TFADANGERZONE]

why would that make a difference?

[TFADANGERZONE]

why?

[TheFartherIGetOut]

it wasnt rehearsed, it wasnt pre-arranged it was an old old magicians trick that any self respecting magician would know.

[erfanullahjan]

They are just passing time. This work is of no worth.....

[stewiegriffn]

for a second there i was like OH MY GOD it's James Woods

[kenjinto]

I thought the guy in the bag would be jesus..

[WordNerd3431]

@kenjinto same!

[gasmaskdude87]

@kenjinto \hahahahahhaahahahahah

[nincsszabadloginnev]

@kenjinto So did I :))))))))

[johnisdakilla]

i dont know who the hell that guy was

[KylieZDM]

I'm not sure if the three wise men knew the guy who was finally chosen either.

I wonder if all the candidates were obscure stars? (No offense to the man who was chosen, I don't know very many stars so that's my fault really)

[giera406]

they already did rehearsed before

[Chaos23gr]

i think its fake, but mabe not .

[SiquidProductions]

ALL of the bags where brown. Notice at the end of the video the Blue and white light reflecting on the satge.

[acura1989]

ya u can also tell when the people with "so called white or brown bags walk up there all brown" rly good observation man there all lines up in a certain way so they all got brown bags but i dont know about the face thing

[polywoly15]

That's believable but how about the happy, sad, surprised face? And then picking one of them?

[awkwardmaniacs]

but why would they pick brown to begin with?

[whistlindude]

because generally all paper bags are brown coloured just a psychology

[rockgurl1218]

wow u have to be retarded.yes there are white and blue lights,but they wouldnt make brown bags turn that color,they would change a tint but thats all.plus when they walked off and went into the stands or watever they were still white and blue and there wasnt any lights back there

[josiak12]

holy faggit shit

[JustATrick]

Look at Stuarts face at 2:34 .. strange

[Ducktaped123]

i like when they shake hands. i like barrys face :) hes so cute

[adhoodo]

haha... that wasn't cool to me just because i had no idea who that guy was... but i guess it is cool if he's famous.

[xMrSmarTx]

I actually made the same choices, wasn't too surprised seeing as this is a pretty simple mentalist effect

[CoolBoysBackYard]

I think, as the profs give their answers, barry and stuart change the way they do the trick, if they had picked a certain face or colour they would have made them either stay or leave depending on whether it would leave richard E grant.

The number 5 at the end, I don't know how they would have done, probably if any side had the second one in chosen, they would have counted towards him, or as 'coolnessonaplate' said he hinted with the word fiver..............good thinking 'coolnessonaplate'.

[Dactylos]

He clearly says which colour do you want to KEEP before they choose :p

[bastian2515]

absalute starngers

then dont talk to them

HAHAHAHAHAHA

FUNNY!

[faviles17]

its funny how on 4:07 barry takes an extra second to count him nd his hands seems to be lower then where he usually touches the rest of them,,its by his ass and the last professor picks 5 right?coincidence?too much of it,,,nd besides if those where random ppl from the streets how did they know exactly how to leave?=p

[2cul2handsom]

at almost the end of the magic...the guy that they chose was standing in the right end corner...and in the begining of the vid...that guy had a blue bag on his head...but after they chose the brown bag, he just changed it with the guy next to him while the disqualified ppl were leaving...

[h4ckluserr]

wha? Oh I get it. No Barry and Stuart use expressions from the bible, and then shows them as tricks... if anything it's way's to show how it's all gimmicks...

[palaginalangba]

stupid trick... all thing is set up...

[Dmouseacorn]

they guy that picked the color of the bags has brown eyes... >.>  idk wat that has to do with anything =D

[Miksoners]

o zal noi o co tu biegało??

[Tiles10]

rigged

[myboomstick]

looks like a derren brown type trick

[patie9]

um... who?

[cactusjase7]

they set this up...

[vamshi36]

kewl!! even i've picked 5th face!!! 0:)

he's gr8 coz he infulenced me too..

LOL.......awesome trick!!

[nessi125]

they manipulated with professors words....if they needed they could have asked the picked to leave or stay and then have other questions that were prepared leading to the last guy anyhow...there is a card trick that works the same way...

[Hoopox]

ye well then they should have been really lucky in this one since they clearly stated "which one u wanna keep". So there is no possibility to send picked one away. Not quite the same as the card trick. If they wanted to manipulate with words the question should have been something like "pick one color" so they can actually decide if it should stay or leave.

[firesyke]

they clearly stated "which one u wanna keep". L2 listen better.

[Azkadaz]

but.... how? barry and stuart didn't influence anything! simply amazing! astounding... i'm speechless! 5/5*

[Norre]

Impressive, like a sexy beast smoking a pot rid a horse and kicking a soccer ball.

[markohsnap]

its just the brain i mean a every day paper bag is brown everybody likes being happy thinking of how meny people ur going to make leave is 5 so u pick the number 5

[ThaTyger]

I agree on this comment, it's based on stereotypical choices. Next to that as mymolly923 says they influance the choises. Note how he pauses his count after 5 for a short while as well. Still a very cool trick

[otterman4444]

NO!, it cannot be a magicians decision because Barry and Stuart asked which they wanted to keep, no matter what they said, B&S couldn't have influenced who stayed.

[dan819999]

omg i can so tell they r lying!!!!!!!

[Attari502]

lol when barry was shaking hands with one of the wise men, stuart was shaking barry's other hand

[imcjbeyotch]

lol, that was the best handshake ever

[supermarioforeverfor]

that's pure ownage

[Markusdiaz]

Thats the largest person in the line. Decision to brown and smile is conspiration. Look to the freemason grip!

[TwirlySocrates]

I bet they were all celebrities-

Those that left may not be recognizable if they have a neutral or unusual expression.

Someone backstage has a list of what celebrity is wearing what bag, and in what row-

When the last person is chosen, they are notified in an earpiece who it is.

Or... the guys are actors- that wouldn't be very clever though- I doubt they would do something so boring.

[cekinxxx]

they chosen brown cos resemble our skin,happy face because everyone would have chosen this,and for number 5 i dont know
