  • BS, this is a magic trick. Go the youtube version of this video titled "Derren Brown NLP" which has 1.7m views, and read the comments for my full explanation of how he does it.

  • Anyone noticing the tape recorder in the back is similar to the motion of cycling??

  • Derren Brown revealed it by himself in this show, so I don't see a point to explain it in this video. You're just pointing out the details which everyone saw anyway. Like touching him and anchoring. Everyone's alread got it.

  • Simon Pegg

  • @poisonivy9891 Yeah, Im guessing this was made before "Shaun of the Dead" and "Hot Fuzz"

  • All of the subtle suggestions and what not about bikes is all misdirection and showmanship. There is no hypnosis taking place here - it's an illusion. The trick didn't lie in getting Simon Pegg to change his mind without knowing it. Pegg never wrote "leather jacket" - he always actually did want the bike and that's what he wrote. The trick lies in finding out what he wrote before hand, and switching the envelope. Everything else is misdirection to make you, and Pegg, believe otherwise.

  • @BloatedSensations

    Yes, I think this is the more tangible explanation. Derren, besides being a mentalist is also an illusionist, which means he can easily switch the envelope.

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

  • Derren Brown does these things so well.

  • Not sure if I believe in satan, but this guy is probably a form of it. Not in a bad way, satan has it's place in nature and society. Just the tactics he uses, pure deception and manipulation and making it seem pleasant for the person, is so beautifully evil. This is what I strive to be in my life but fall so short of currently. I hope this isn't a glorified magic trick, I hope there is some truth to the psychology side of this.

  • tape recoreder looks like bike lololol whattta G

  • INCEPTION in REAL TIME

  • I'd like to see this dude try this shit on Karl Pilkington....

    He'd be like, "alright... i can't be bothered"

  • This would only work on someone who is "suggestable". Someone like me, with a relatively antisocial personality, would be so put off by the constant touching, rapid speech, and proximity to another that I would be more focused on "getting away" from this guy than anything he was saying. I guess thats why I'm a hard sell. The thought that my saying "no thanks" might be hurtful to someone has absolutely no impact on me.

  • @drtwatman actually i am pretty good with hypnosis, i have been doing it for quite a while. I have found the people you would assume to be the hardest sell are usually the easiest. Those who are a 'tough sell' are: the overly intellectual, the overly analytical, the anti social, the person with ADHD, and the extremely emotional. I have found these people have a common thread of feeling threatened by a lack of control in their life. Giving them a state of control while under makes it STUPID easy.

  • It's a fake explanation. ;)

  • @suzuke000 talk about being desperate

  • the room is also suggestible holds something lots of red circle and an old tape recorder

    there even a shape that can remind childhood or a crib nice but after the second time caught on to most of it now if i can just get that pick up one LOL

  • where did you learn english?

  • this video is shit suck my dick you fucking jew

  • As Jy weer so aan my vat gaan ek you moer!

  • Why don't people wonder why he is touching them all the time? I know I would think it very unusual and off-putting and probably wouldn't even listen to him cause I wouldn't be able to stop thinking, "stop touching me on the arm."

  • @DCBear78 the reason why he is 'touch' them is, he is setting up a Anchor/trigger. Search up on Google Hypnotic Anchor.

  • simon pegg

  • It doesn´t explain anything!!! Derren uses mental control over the "victim", and not many can do this!!! Also he has a lot of interacting with his mind-power over the fellow, also what others cannot do. So no secrets are revealed here whatsoever!

  • @tygesh He try's to explains how Derren gets control over him, "bike" using nlp en covert hypnoses. . He missed some things though, like the handshake interruption, wich tricks his subconcious. So there's a lot more that Derren does wich he doesn't explane. Anyone can do this after a LOT of training, but I agree that Derren is amazing with this.

    PS Sorry for any spelling errors. I'm not English

  • @LDISTEL I don´t beleive "anyone" can do it...! No matter how hard they train...Most people of today are so mentally disturbed, they can´t concentrate for even half a second. If no inner peace, I doubt one can develop skills like these. Derren has probably always been somewhat introverted, as his field of observation is extraordinaryly broad.

    So really as he is today, it´s probably the result of decades of "work". I don´t know this, it´s only my beleif though.

  • @tygesh the fact that people "can't concentrate for even half a second" is part of what makes it work. he is breaking established social patterns (shaking hands and personal space are two examples), which has people's mind concentrating on the fact that something is different and leaving it receptive to subliminal messages. If people were more aware and able "to concentrate" for longer periods of time, this would not work as well

  • @skifflebunch Yeah - you´re probably right...

  • you spelt straight wrong

  • 666 likes this is the devils video...

  • @swifterthenu227 not anymore

  • @hammettallica45 haha god be praised lol

  • is that simon pegg!?!?!?!

  • This is a wake up call for all our men.

    SFM is the new self empowering system specific for men.

    The true personal development for men.

    You want Results, We want Results, get results with SFM.

  • it can be a simple coincidence al the shit he is doing....a bmx bike rocks anyways even if u dont like it!

  • This is rubbish i didn't want a bmx bike after he said all this stuff sure i saw wheels moving with the reel to reel etc and lots of circles that represent wheels of bikes etc but thats not what i want even if a bmx came in to my mind it wouldn't be what i want. The fact that all these actors have serious concerned looks without trying to laugh etc shows they are also trying to make this look as authentic as possible. None of these guys try to pull this bs apart in front of Derren thus BS!

  • @uncreativeranter because he's not personally talking to you, and when you watched this, you know he is tricking someone. so you already have that guarded mind.

  • you missed the best hints... like saying "bike" instead of by a couple of times and he says: a nice car like a " B M" or an "X" -box

  • Darren really understands mind control... stage hypnosis master at work

  • don't understand why when he touches someone that this act has an effect or secures something in the mind. How odd or interesting.

  • @trident3b It's background psychology. The slightest things, done at the correct time in the correct manner, can change how we feel about certain things, often time doing so without us even knowing. People make money off of learning how to decipher or implant ideas into someone's head. The most successful casinos have low ceilings because with a lower ceiling we feel subconsciously safer and more at ease (and more willing to spend), the studying of these ideas goes very deep.

  • @trident3b the touching is called an anchor in NLP . think if you can a nice girl talking to you ,smiling and touching you on the shoulder ,that would change you pereception of her. even if it was not positive at the outstart..

  • @richart58 & Mr2ndAmendment: thx for your respective responses. Of course I do believe all this, I'd even like to practise it myself, I'm just trying to really get to the bottom of it. I have bought books and I find them totally unsatisfying, yet I know this works. I like your example of the girl touching me. Even if it leads to nothing, & I like her, I get the sensation of a priveledge. Something is there. But how on earth does that anchor something that will hypnotise me? A word and a touch?

  • can i read a novel or a textbook just by flipping and staring through the pages so my subconscious mind understands the whole book without spending my time reading every word one by one? lol!

  • lol is that the guy from shaun of the dead??

  • Why does everybody believe this is NLP just because Derren SUGGESTS this?!

  • Brilliant exposure of the techniques. However, theundergroundskater needs work on grammar. lol

  • 2:08 he says "bike" gifts 2:12 best way to "handle_bar" none 2:15 what to "saddle" for 2:21 he says recycle that has cycle in it and after that he says two tired bottles 2:31 fall in love "bike" creating 2:37 all sort of pumped up 2:40 he isolates "beam" and "excitement" and those have the letters BMX in them 3:01 he does it again he says Be eXtreme see the letters :) 3:06 i want "X" what ever that is 3:08 what ever that is like a BM or an X-box there are those letters again :D... and the taps

  • @diusx easy to know. u just watched the original vid where thats revealed

  • @diusx You're exactly right. I was very skeptical of Derren Brown at first, but I'm starting to think he might be legitimate, having done a little research.

  • @diusx Don't forget the visual in the background of the tape recorder steadily going round like a bicycle

  • @diusx interesting.your hired

  • @Instinctivlygod I'm hired for what exactly???

  • @diusx wow

  • @diusx You did a much better job than the person who posted the video. Thank you!

  • @diusx You spent too much time on this.

    /watch?v=FEpdTZGfxCQ&feature=r­elated

    Bam. You guys are welcome.

  • @1MadVirus1 no shit sherlock i posted that comment so people would know how it was done so find yourself someone else to try and screw over douchebag

  • @diusx Why not just copy/paste the link? It's actually explained much better that way.

  • @1MadVirus1 the link is in the suggestions its right by my comment so why bother... if they wanted to see it just go to the very obvious subliminal messaging EXPLAINED its right there -_____- and i posted it so it would be here on this one so instead of wasting your time trying to make someone else look like an ass and just stop while your behind me

  • persuasiontechnology.wordpress­(dot)com/ This blog is really helpful to understanding these things. Helped me a LOT!!

  • is that simon pegg?

  • Great video. Few comment though:

    - he uses mimics as well in order to amplify the feeling of desire (his hand are forming a ball)

    - stretching his right hand for a handshake and then grabbing Simon's hand with his left hand, breaks the unconscious state.

    To all of you that are too stupid to realize what's happening and posting bullshit, why don't you try to do the same thing only by using Darren's explanation (which is completely correct, apart from not telling how to induce a state of trance)?

  • Comment removed

  • The cult of scientology are using the same technique when they talk to people and are trying to get them interested in buying a course.

  • suck a dick

  • @scrappyjaunk

    Yes Master! *DROOLS*

  • L0L 2:31 When he said "By creating" it sounded like "Bike creating"

  • also: reCYCLE the same.... BY....

    BMXcietement

  • @1313Nothing i heard that shit tooo

  • they "beam excitement" Bm or X

  • STOP FALLING FOR THIS DAMN GUY. Derren Brown is a an illusionist. NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS. He didn't use Hypnosis or anything that effects the sub-conscious. He used some inside people (Most likely Simon's wife) and some misdirection to pull it off. The only people he hypnotized are the people who watched this and believed the bullshit this "Reveal" or what he said on the show. That stuff in the background was not to hypnotize Simon, it was used to hypnotize the gullible viewer.

  • @rwpexpert no-one is "falling" for derren brown. we all know how he does his acts, doesnt mean its not entertaining. ive read his book, been to 2 shows and coincidentally met him in a cafe and chatted for a good while. hes just good at what he does

  • around 1:35 voice is down. any1 having this problem too?

  • Can anyone tell me which episode and season this is from? This is the show Mind Control, right?

    Thanks :)

  • 1. anchoring

    2. pattern interrupt

    3. subliminal suggestion using the anchor

    4. giving the best present ever

  • Hey theundergroundskater, learn some underground grammar

  • @theboatpeople Was that supposed to be funny?

  • If this is NLP than I eat my hat. It is suggested that NLP is at play but there's something else going on. A man Theo Annemann done this in the 1930s when NLP did not exist except he claimed to be paranormal and people believed his paranormal claims.

  • I find it odd that you claim to explain how he did it, when he proceeded to explain it himself in the same episode.

  • @thevillage88

    I'll tell you how they did it:

    It is pre-arranged. The man pretending to be a magician is just saying to his production assistant outside: "Say, bmx bike"

    No magic, no mind reading. It's all goddamn fake.

  • @hyperseauton

    It is not fake. Take the time to learn about NLP and you'll understand.

  • Comment removed

  • @thevillage88 At least he introduced the term NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming)

  • @thevillage88 lmfao

  • @thevillage88 hahahaha

  • thats the guy from shaun of the dead right?

  • @Werlord10 Yeah, he's hilarious.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Almost right.. you should add the subliminal msg's he conducts aswell.. the story he tells the guy contains alot of extra information.. check this out: 'like a car, a BM(w) or an Xbox'

  • @TheWoochy he also said an X whatever that is. and than the BM like u said and than the X comes back in the Xbox

  • True - along with other references like feeling "pumped up", and this being the best way to "handle - bar" none - getting the best present for people.

  • Don't talk about methods being proven when you don't understand what a proof actually is. Fascinating technique though.

  • Omg its the same think people ar at bars and they touch arms and they nod like thay understands xD

  • @ozonlagret You cannot trust anyone. Everyone's doing what Derren is. You're doing it aswell. You can't trust yourself. We're al doing it. We can't trust each other. You can trust me though. Because I'm not doing it. But since you're doing it, I can't trust you and so you cannot trust me.

  • 2:04 when Derren removes Pegg's hand shake with his left hand, that is also an anchor.

  • virus on referred site

  • simon pegg :D

  • Anybody catch Derren's unique wrist touch and placement on table? Does the subject's wrist move thereafter? Notice the rapid-fire suggestions? NLP touch is involved but the room is all about sublim sug., moving wheels--tape

    Most important: Derren tells him exactly what he wants from him, i.e., getting someone to change a present choice without knowing...

    It's Waking Hypnosis!

    Learn the tech if you're a therapist

    Rapport

    a) rapid sug

    b) touch at the correct moment

    c) purpose

  • The man asked for a BMX bike. The brilliance is convincing you and him that originally he asked for a leather jacket.

  • @ysilv no. he asked for a jacket and thats also what he wrote down. the brilliance is convincing him that he wants a bmx, which is not true actually.

  • All I can say to that is that he managed to fool you too. NLP is powerful, but this is much easier.

  • @ysilv I dont get your point. Why would Derren lie, and why would that actor be acting? That guy just wrote down leather jacket but he made him think that he wrote down bmx bike.

  • @ysilv he uses words like

    BeaM EXcitement. That makes him think of BMX.

    He also uses: 'BE so EXtreme.' and ' a BM or an Xbox'

    believe me. it's what i say.

  • Do you really think he would pick a leather jacket, when he has no need for it? Derren couldn't have changed this man's childhood memories (where he wanted a BMX bike) too.

    All he did was replace the note. Not too hard, and much more likley to work than actual hypnosis. And the NLP throws you off.

    Get it?

  • @ysilv ya right. im sorry but do you actually know anything about nlp and stuff?

    its my hobby and srsly, this is very easy to do.

  • I agree that this is easy to do, and I would add that the issue is not how good I am at NLP it is through what method this was made easy.

    If doing this through the NLP method was simple, the original video wouldn't have 1Mil views. Derren Brown is a brilliant mentalist and he found the easier way to do it.

    illusion.

  • What is RST ?

  • Derren Brown is not using NLP. He even says so in his own book. What he does is called mentalism, meaning that he's basically an illusionist. NLP is pseudoscience (aka bullshit).

  • NLP is more scientiffically proven then freudism or Montesorri'ism. It is also based on Ericksonian hypnosis which is accept "Science" and published in a peer review scientific journal moren than 100 x. "Science" however is very limited and can NEVER say what is true or false, it can only say that a specific variable has a plausiblility (usually 95%) that a specific variable has an effect, then stupid people accept the whole theories that the scientist has made upon that small PLAUSIBLE variable

  • No, you don't get it. From a linguistic perspective, NLP doesn't make sense. That's not how language works. If NLP worked, then so would backmasking and other supposed methods of subliminal messaging.

    "NLP is more scientiffically proven then freudism or Montesorri'ism."

    Sorry, but that's bullshit. Say whatever you want, but all I hear is "bullshit, bullshit, and more bullshit."

  • Shut up idiot, some of his shit is showmanship, but this e.g. is nlp IDIOT!

  • He says outright in his book that he doesn't use NLP

  • NLP isn't pseudoscience, it's a scientific consequence of the way our brain/nervous system complex interacts with our environment. Every idea in our heads is a linguistic one (humans think using linguistic logic) and our nervous systems are the dynamic 'hardware' by which these ideas manifest & are conditioned/imprinted. NLP is a general term for acculturalization & only the temp practical utilization of it's subliminal principles is the form that is popular amongst the D.B. master culture.

  • What a terrible series of analogies. All you've shown me is your lack of understanding of both language and the brain. I'm not going to bother explaining how incredibly wrong you are because I doubt you will listen.

  • @terminaldeity Why is it that you see the splinter in my eye and not the log in your own?

  • Here's a new word for you: deepity.

  • A big part of NLP is scientifically proven. Nevertheless this is mostly mentalism - the guy chose a BMX to begin with.

  • "A big part of NLP is scientifically proven."

    What part? It's impossible to test using the scientific method.

  • wikipedia -> NLP_and_science

  • Maybe you should read it yourself, because half the article is about the lack of scientific evidence and research. Why can't you just tell me specifically what part has been scientifically proven?

  • Too time consuming.

    It's the PRS that has not been proven.

  • Well you've done a great job of further convincing me that NLP has no scientific basis. Thanks.

  • I saw the original program on T.V. and Derren did explain what he did. Everything you are explaining, Derren explained on the show.

  • so what ?

  • i spotted one myself...check out how he says, "want a BM or an X-box", he's really saying BMX really fast and touching his arm at the right points too

  • "when you gonna buy BUY GIFTS for somebody...." actually becomes "when you gonna bike gif(t) .."or something similar.

    In oral speech he is also using actual illogic sentences, but the listener already doesnt seem to care or notice... very interesting . thx

  • aswell as his language notice the room is covered in symbols that represent two wheels, the rug, the table, the wrapping paper, even the tape/projector is two wheels revolving.

  • the guy with the glasses is from hot fuzz

  • lol its the guy out of hot fuzz and a whole lot of other movies

  • 2:32 using the positivity anchor he also touches the man and instead of saying "BY" he actually says "BIKE" (sounds like By for a moment but listen) its brilliant, i studied how he stole a wallet from someone once not knowing exactly what this stuff was called and ive used alot of those tecniques at my job!.... yes i work in sales lol

  • 2:12 "this is the best way to HANDLE, BAR none"

  • You seem NPL expert. Can you repeat this experiment? Have you ever tested this experiment? Or you forget Derren Brown is also an illusionist...?

  • by creating (BIKE reee ating)

    BUY, BUY, BUY

    Recycle....( BICYCLE)

  • Comment removed

  • derren brown doesnt hold secrets he holds skill

  • "A really nice car like a [BM or an X]box

  • very nice explanation. great utilization of eliciting a state, anchoring it, amplifying it, and stealing anchors. thanks.

  • You missed the most important technique, but not bad otherwise.

    At 2:07 there is a handshake interrupt. Watch closely, because it is an incredibly powerful technique. Once Derren does the handshake interrupt, Simon's pupils dilate and he is in a deep trance.

  • Comment removed

  • learn to fucking spell

  • he also says too tired at 2:20 and "bike" at 2:32

  • Wow. That's Simon Pegg from "Shaun of the Dead."

  • Comment removed

  • At 2:37 he says "pumped up" (like a tire) while touching his arm. At 2:57 he focuses his attention by pointing his finger and saying "this is important." 3:01 he anchors an "'X'-treme" feeling. At 3:06, again with "I want 'X'". At 3:09 he touches his arm again and says, "Like a BM or an 'X'-box" suggesting a BM'X' bike.

  • And he says "too tired"

  • there's alot of "bike", "BMX" and "tires" allusions... I believe there's another video on YouTube with subtitles.

  • "by creating" pronounced "bike ... re-ating".

  • also, at 2:20, he mentions too tired (2 tired- 2 tires like a bike)

  • Comment removed

  • @diusx HA, your comment was removed no one will ever know what you tried to say!

  • 2:31, he uses "bike creating" instead of "by creating" implementing the idea bike into Simon's head

  • lol i studied on nlp a little bit watched this vid and thanks 2 u nd google this trick worked on 2 of m m8s!

  • Comment removed

  • Am I suppposed to be losing audio from 1:25 to 1:38?

  • Comment removed

  • Is this the guy from shaun of the dead?

  • yepp!!

  • Whoah. The recorder in the background reminds me of a BIKE! :D

  • That's just what they wanted you to think! :-D

  • His techniques fail on anti-social people.

  • No it isn't, it's quit useful probably more so than with social people because the concept of closeness would seem so out of place to begin with any odd gestures or actions wouldn't be suspected, only the general act of beign social. I've tried it, it's quite amazing.

  • That room and that that possible sound recording device in the background...seems quite hypnotizing...

  • I can't wait for christmas, I'm getting my whole family dog-shit and I'm going to smash it in their face and then convince them its everything they've ever wanted.

  • Haha! Nice

  • Comment removed

  • hes a fast talker and hard to follow him... or maybe... our brains are following but we just dont know it?

  • i could be wrong but this video seems to miss out 2 of derren's key techniques:

    he shakes his hand and then halfway through the handshake he grabs simon's hand with his left, breaking the handshake. he does this in the "russian scam", too, to take the man's belongings and you';ll notice after that simon seems to be mesmorised

    he also touched him, said "BM..." let go, touched him again "X-box" so that he touched his arms while saying "BMX", like he did in the supermarket stunt with the vinegar

  • in fact, watching again, after he breaks that handshake, he touches simons arm while saying:

    "buy gifts" to sound like "bike gifts"

    "handle, bar none" to sound like"handlebar"

    "reCYCLE", little emphasis on cycle

    "by creating" to sound like "bike creating"

    "beam excitement", quite like "BMX-citement"

    "extreme"

    and the letter "X" itself

  • UR correct.. listen without watching.

    How many times can you hear the "Bike" word?

    Also, the end is missing, Im' gonna guess its a bmx bike, but is it possible:

    This has been arranged?

    Just a question, is it possible?

    Yes, its possible that this has been arranged.

  • he also uses words associated with bikes like excitement as you said and pump

  • Comment removed

  • "By Creating" sounds an awful lot like "Bike"

  • Did you guys notice the reel to reel spinning in the background? My guess is that had something to do with the induction of some sort.

  • wheels of a bike, maybe?
