This is an excellent demonstration on dowsing. It's outcome suggests that the motion(s) of the device(s) used for detection are consciously or subconsciously controlled by the person using it/them much rather than by what the person is looking for.

You have to love YouTube. Derren Brown is a well-known illusionist who uses a variety of techniques (such as subconcious suggestion) as part of his stage act to make people do things. Spend any time with Google and you'll find he rejects the supernatural, and has less than kind words for people who claim they have psychic powers.
Despite all this, when YouTubers see his illusions, the best response they can come up with is "it's fake." Well, duh. Of course it's fake! That's the point!

Rubbish, dowsing has been 'disproven' again and again, sonar was what tracked the U-boats. They were Churchill's greatest concern until they cracked it. Radar and Sonar are the two SCIENTIFIC inventions that saved the UK. If we'd relied on dowsing we'd all be speaking German today.

I would like to see James Randi doing an experiment to show that Darren Brown really can do these subconscious mind tricks on people... Until I have good reason to believe this "guiding" was not an act, I will be sceptic of the "sceptic" just as much as I am of the "dowsers", "psychics" and such. Him admiting openly that he doesn't have supernatural powers and that he's using tricks doesn't prove he's not doing other tricks to trick the viewers about some other things, too. ;)

correct - this is no proof that Derren does use trickery of the mind. He uses quote:"magic, suggestion, psychology, misdirection and showmanship" if we believe he tells us the truth - which we don't know either, then he's using any combination of the above to create this illusion...he also adds he doesn't use stooges - again - if we believe him....
