HEY GUYS!!!! Hope you enjoy this one! Worked really hard on it! Let me know what you think! Learn how to actually read people and detect lies: ua-cam.com/video/boys-3_T86M/v-deo.html A few additional thoughts about the video for those who want more details. 1) Some of you might look at the first scene and say “well obviously this is how he knew all these things...” but as Galileo said: “all truths are easy to understand once they have been discovered; the point is to discover them!” It’s much much much easier to figure out why he said what he said than it is to say it in the first place. 2) In the first scene, I know he’s using cold reading and deductions. And he’s very good at it. The point I was trying to make is not that what he’s doing is impossible. My point is simply that mentalists rarely do elaborate cold reads like that. We normally depend on much more deceptive but certain “tricks” to get information. 3) Some people in the comments said he moved the straw with static electricity, not by blowing. That is incorrect. They confirm in the episode that he blew. It is possible to move a straw with static but it looks nothing like that. The hand has to be closer and the movement looks much brisker. Also, most importantly, he picked it up and did it again. This can’t be done with static without recharging. Finally most mentalists would balance a straw on something and rotate it with static. A steady roll like that is much harder. 4) Regarding Rock Paper Scissors. I know there are ways to increase your odds to win at Rock Paper Scissors. I also know you may have seen mentalists on tv or UA-cam win consistently at Rock Paper Scissors, but it’s not the same as what he he did in the clip. There are very subtle, hard to detect differences that I can’t talk about without giving away secrets that aren’t mine to give, but for those who know what to look for, it’s obvious he didn’t use what a mentalist would actually use to accomplish this. The way he did it can’t be done, you’re just going to have to trust me on this. 5) For the triangle and circle. Some of you noticed he signals the shapes with his hands as a way to “subliminally influence” her. Good catch! However, not all mentalists use this, because sometimes the spectator might notice it and think of something else on purpose (in fact a lot of you commented that you purposely changed your mind because it was too obvious). Besides, the point I was trying to make is that with these tricks, we hope for the best outcome, gesture or not. Thanks for watching!
I loved the show but I hated the episodes that had too much about Red John in them. I've rewatched the whole series twice so far and still find it entertaining. I dislike the Red John character because he is too good at everything and too many followers that go under the radar to be interesting. He is clearly just an excuse to make the writing easier. Also, I don't like the gory scenes that they use in those episodes. I think they could have written the series just fine by catching Red John in the first season.
@@RobertShaverOfAustin He was too integral to Jane’s character to be caught that quickly, there had to be a reason why Jane wasn’t able to catch him before. Otherwise everyone would look like idiots. That being said they definitely dragged it out and built it up too much. Leaving it as the guy in the mall would have been a much better option and given them more time to explore Jane’s life at the CBI after killing Red John
After "Real doctor reacting to Grey's Anatomy" and "Real Mentalist reacting to the Mentalist" now we need real criminal reacting to the Blacklist's Reddington...
I would watch the hell out of that! I need to know if every criminal has a little old dude with an oxygen tank who specializes in extracting information through innovative torture techniques.
Same, it’s been a go-to impromptu trick for me for a while, and it’s only failed me a couple of times. But all the time it’s worked out have been amazing reactions
Simon Baker was great in that role - playful, and thoroughly convincing. Great video, Spidey - I'll never understand why you don't have more subscribers! The best magic tutorials on the platform, no contest.
Yes!!! I actually want to cover a scene where he takes some guesses about Cho. And he’s wrong and he just casually brushes it off. Same happens with Lisbon later.
Do you remember the episode where he would always randomly check shoes of ppl in wheel chairs n it just so happens to pay off. And he says exactly that ...one of the first things that came to mind lol
Jane’s abilities stem from his mastery of His CONfidence. He understands how people think in a given situation and uses confidence to sell his abilities. He also has mastered how to “lead the mind” of his mark. He has experience in redirecting attention when he deals with skepticism. Yes it’s a TV show so it needs to truncate many of the cons of manipulation and sometimes suspend reality for the storyline. It’s one of my favorite shows
With rock, paper, scissors. I make my decision slightly after they do. The most complicated hand motion is the scissors. The least is rock. So once you see fingers come apart, it's either scissors or paper. So I pick scissors in that instance. If no finger movement, paper. If they aren't paying as much attention. I can observe thumb curl, which means they'll pick scissors. So then I do rock.
I considered this is what he was doing as he definitely landed his choice later than the sherif the first two times but the last few he was keeping eye contact and landed at the exact same time. I find it very unlikely that he did this. I think it’s just one of those “look how cool he is” scenes
Most people play rock paper scissors in a highly predictable way. There are AI system beating humans in 95% of the games. Maybe a human can also learn to recognize these patterns.
@@bokoloaranyfa3824 not with that amount of confidence and that many times. No way. Maybe best out of 5... maybe. But winning every hand like that; there’s no way.
I'm a psych major and have a teacher who is a Mentalist. All of us are scared to even glance at our seatmate's test because we always think he will know 😂
I think Jane's mentalism is based on taking risks 95% of the time -- he's gutsy with no holdback and perhaps one of the fatal flaws of the show is they never do offer his faults. That makes it entirely too idyllic (coming from a major fan of said show). His calm demeanor can be said to be part of how he could get away with this approach, that, and his charm to distract. However, I believe the scene where he predicts rock, paper, scissors could possibly occur to some extent. His opponent was angry, making him more likely to show a fist (rock) than anything else. His next obvious move would be to do the opposite. I've heard of watching pulse in body language reading and it is likely there could be a couple other tells within the arm. I'm not entirely sure it is impossible. If you anger a friend and then immediately play the game to decide who's right or wins, they probably will go far rock first and paper second. What do you think?
My brother and I used to play rock-paper-scissors when we were teenagers, and after 2 or 3 "warm-up" attempts, we managed to get all our results the same (for example: both rock, both scissors, etc). And we achieved this equality one after another, for about 10 minutes straight. I can't explain that other than with "synchronicity"... if you have any other explanation, it's welcome.
The mentalist has been my favorite show ever since I first watched it, and I’ve been waiting for a breakdown like this. My favorite scene is one that’s similar to the gun and bullets one. For those who know the show, it’s the one with the dead mouse. Such a good illustration of how to use psychology, and I’ve used the principle to fool people lots of times.
I love the explanation of the triangle in a circle. I always use it as a lead up to any mentalism trick, either it works and "you're the perfect assistant for this trick" or it fails and "you're quite the stand out from the crowd, let me try something with you that only works with a mind like yours". One of the reasons I love your channel, Spidey, is all the little nuggets of pure gold like these that you give to take our skills to the next level. When I'm learning anything from you I feel like I have a personal mentor sharing the great trade secrets so that I can be great too. I'm actually working on a trick that uses so many things I've learnt on your channel, and a bit off Induction, and I hope one day when it's ready I can share it with you
I adore fresh Mentalist content, and this was a treat beyond my wildest expectations! Thanks for making it! For the thingy; Shapes: hexagon, octagon, Veggie: broccoli, Car: road, Toolbox: wrench.
A lot more coming my friend! I appreciate your enthusiasm! Stick around and ignore my magic trick tutorials hahaha I’ll be working on the mentalist and those simultaneously
Dude, you’re freaking amazing. I love it. Please post more videos of breaking down The Mentalist. It’s pretty cool. And a list of books that every Mentalist/Psychologist should read.
Without Jane, the FBI and CBI would be doomed when it came to finding the criminals ;-;" Also Mcallister would be roaming around and pretending to be a part of the good side-
"Almost no mentalist on this planet is that good..." Yeah well, we all know who the exception is😉 The mentalist was a great series though! I enjoyed hearing your thoughts about it. You're very clever and observant Spidey.
So glad you mentioned Randi, I was a huge fan of his and was lucky to meet and chat with him at one of his conferences in Las Vegas a decade of so ago, which funnily enough is where I met Banacheck, Penn & Teller. You've got a new sub.
Never watched The Mentalist, but absolutely loved how you broke each scene down! You really share a lot of great stuff on this channel that has allowed me to blow away family and friends with "mentalism". (The envelope prediction you did with Shin KILLS every time!!) You also have a way of explaining things that makes it really easy for the layperson to understand. Really appreciate your content!! I have learned so much from you and Jay Sankey! (Thanks for introducing him to us!)
Thanks, Spidey - really great stuff. By the way, Jane was even more subtle with the triangle in a circle thing than you give him credit for. He also used somatic suggestions, that is, he very loosely suggested the shape with his hands as he was giving the instructions. Darren Brown in the UK does something similar in his TV shows. It's very subtle but also very powerful.
OH, and I was never really into Mentalism before. Then I saw those breakdowns and little techniques. Hooked now. Chris and Wes will have to wait till I have caught up on the content you got. In school, you are taught a lesson and then given a test In life, you are given a test That teaches you a lesson
I absolutely adore the Mentalist, so seeing this vid in my feed was quite a treat! I'm gonna have to change up the video on Patrick Jane I had planned for my channel so I don't repeat anything you said here haha
Shapes: Octagon and Circle, Car: Tree, Vegetables: Green Beans, Tool: Hammer (however if asked not to pick hammer I would have also picked Screwdriver like Teller did)
Please make a second part with following : 1) The disappearing ACE card trick & found then in corpse. 2) sleight of hand in S6E7, when Patrick ran. 3) other mentalism scenes
I think it's also a bit about if it's hard to visualize. (I did have the triangle inside the circle because I made the decision to see what my mind would come up with. At other times I want to go against the grain and get something unique) I can visualize a hexagon inside a triangle if I want to, but my mind doesn't like the fact that it's hard to make the edges touch and to "draw" it in my brain
This is an amazing video I love it. I think that it is awesome and mind blowing the way mentalists as you play with our minds. Also, I like that serie so I would love a second part of this video, like analysing how Patrick Jane hypnotizes people and carries out some other tricks. Could you please make a second part? Pleaseeee
The Mentalist is one of my favorites shows! Its awesome to see you talking about it!! There is a card trick in the season 3 that always blow my mind, would be cool to see ur react to that
@@SpideyHypnosis Yep. but I live in a very rural community with lots of deer and I am a wire artist by trade so the first on the top on my toolbox is pliers so my references are different than the norm. Shrug
@@elibroussard8810 I only asked coz your last name suggests French and in French pliers is a short 1 syllable word. I was just trying to do what Patrick Jayne did in the first scene, deductive reasoning. I failed lol
@@SpideyHypnosis I am from Louisiana originally, hence the name. I guess I am the reason you don't do some of those things to one person. I am an outlier.
I thought of pliers too...my fist language is portuguese, and pliers is kindda long word “alicate” // thought of mountain in the car...probably cuz that’s what I see most of the time where I live//vegetable and shape were correct
Great video man! I would like to add an important part to the Circle and Triangle portion that you didn't mention. The mentalist gestures the triangle and the circle with his hands as he speaks, subconsciously suggesting them, further increasing the odds.
3 роки тому+28
Good, very good video. Just react of the series "lie to me".
You know. I thought about it but the mentalist has a lot more variety of techniques and principles. Lie to me is mostly micro expressions. Fascinating stuff though.
For the vegetable I thought of broccoli, for looking out the window on a roadtrip I thought of a cow, and for pulling a tool out of a toolbox I thought of a wrench… The thing that sealed the deal in the clip from the Mentalist was the hand motions Patrick was doing: he first motioned in a triangle, then in a circle. I’ve heard Banachek talk about this trick before.
You have to remember, he was portrayed as someone that was once a top-teir psychic. He's really using the cold reading techniques that psychics are more likely to use than the typical mentalist. I feel like the show should have really been called "the Psychic". He wasn't trained for entertainment, but rather fraud
Paraphrase: "If it doesn't work, brush it off & move on." Great life advice for many interactions or attempts at anything! If I could not skip a beat but just move forward & try something different with most of life's failures, I'd be a much happier clam. :)
Excellent break down! Always enjoy your presentations and explanations Spidey. Thank you for your great magic and mental lessons. I was fortunate enough to call Randi a friend. He explained the straw trick to me at a diner in Oahu. He would do it exactly as it was done on the segment you showed. But then he taught me another "upgraded" version. As you gently blow, you stop and turn your head away. By the time the "air" has touched the straw, your head is no longer facing the straw and gives an even more impressive look to the effect. The waitresses expression was priceless and before you knew it, Randi and I were surrounded by the other staff in the diner and not only did we all get a free show, we were treated by the manager as well. I laughed when Randi bent and broke one of the spoons at the table and the waitress quickly grabbed it and ran off saying something like, "I'm keeping this!" He was a great human being and so full of knowledge and willing to share it too. That is why I like following you too! As for the triangle and the circle, yes, I imagined the same design too. For the tools, I guess because I am also a non-believer, I went from HAMMER to SCREWDRIVER and finally to WRENCH. Bottom line, I still mentally chose the HAMMER first. Again, thank you so much for all you do to further our art!! Take care and stay safe Spidey! Magically, Hank Rice from GUAM, USA.
That’s so awesome Hank! Thank you for sharing that wonderful story. I hope James Randi would have enjoyed my videos explaining these TV shows 😊. The head turn is a real convincer. Even James hydrick did it with the phone book which is why it looks so deceptive. He turned his head after the blow. Thanks for the comment ❤️
@@SpideyHypnosis I am absolutely positive that Jim would have commended you on it! Infact, I bet he would have asked you to join his team of Scam Busters!
I’m concerned I’m broken, circle yes, but hexagon not triangle…. I’m just finding these amazing videos you put up a while ago now and it’s great fun listening to an actual mentalist talk about the show, The Mentalist. Especially when the breakdowns and information are coming from someone with such a good heart who also uses their powers for good in a number of ways but, I’m especially thankful for the amount of time and effort that you put into these videos, and you do it for free!🙏❤️✌️ Lot’s of love and gratitude your way! ❤️🙏✌️-Hillary
Thanks so much 😊 I’m glad you’re enjoying these breakdowns! I try to pack them with good info. And you’re absolutely not broken! Unique and creative! A free thinker! I would argue that you’re the opposite of broken 🤗
I thought of a rectangle (not a square) inside a circle. I was actually kind of concerned that I was being too obvious with the rectangle. :D Then when he asked about other things, these are seriously the first things that came to mind: Vegetable: broccoli Road trip, look out the window and see something: cow Tool box: (actually, he'd already said hammer or screwdriver before I had a chance to think of anything)
I absolutely LOVE this video Spidey! I can tell you worked really really hard on it. I greatly appreciate your hard work! And I would love to see more of these! I love the psychological aspect of magic and mentalism. Thanks so much!
I love that triangle-circle thing. It's so simple and beautiful. The others didn't work so well for me. My vegetable was a potato and my tool was a wrench. And I even ate carrots an hour ago but I still thought potato.
I though about a circle inside an hexagon. But to be fair, I saw all of the episode of that show so even if I don't remember that specific scene consciously maybe my unconscious mind does and purposely made me think to a different set of shapes.
Really enjoyed this episode and hoping for more! I also chose circle inside triangle. Also, I know Lior Suchard claims he can't lose at rock, papers, scissors and maybe you can react on how real that is, and how he does it.
Humans are incapable of purely random thoughts. There's always a pattern, however complex, meaning decisions can be anticipated with some degree of accuracy.
The fridge photos, is exactly what intelligence analysts and interrogators do. There was a contractor that came in all the time and standing orders were for everyone to stop typing when she was there. Allegedly, she could peek what we were typing, by listening to the rhythm of key strokes. I must assume there was something to it, for military intelligence to stop work, while she was around.
Anybody else love the movie Inside Out. Just reevaluate the movie after watching this and you will find that it is a very deep movie. Also I had a circle inside a triangle but I also have the deathly hallows on the brains. Still there must have been some thing there. Also shout out to Psychology and sociology the studies that will change the world. Lets get more people on board!!
Not only is inside out brilliantly written but in the beginning when she’s a baby running around the house every single line that every single character says makes perfect sense for that character. It’s amazing
@@SpideyHypnosis And just a side note but just incredibly special and personal, it was the first movie my wife and I went on a date to see in theaters so it just had such an amazing impact. My wife went to school for psychology so we just saw so much more of a story. Just awesome!!
Love this video! Would appreciate more breakdowns, I like Wes Barker's breakdowns he's been doing but mentalism-specific explanations of shows like this is quality content and very unique (unless you know of other similar channels on UA-cam, I can't seem to find it). Been learning from your tutorials since last September when I started magic. Thank you so much for all the videos Spidey!
Hey man!! I really love your content on here!! I’m a magician as well and when I first started learning, you were one of the first people I started learning from!! All in all, keep up the amazing work man!! It’s getting you a long way!!
I admit that it was Patrick Jane and the series that got me into Mentalism and it's that same book on the shirt you have on that I read to get on my magic. It was so good, read it in one day
I beat my daughter in rock paper scissors all the time because she always throws what could beat the last thing i threw so i always know what her next throw will be
I imagined a circle inside a triangle! How do popular mentalists guess credit card pins of strangers? How do they guess a name or thing? Spidey's videos are excellent and have a touch of genuineness.
Once I was a guest at a very rich families house. I took a few moments to look at the parents book shelf. It had a few books on problem children. Which was odd because the family had good children. I asked the mother about her life with her kids. The conversation then revolved around how difficult her oldest was. I spent some with the children. Before my time with the family ended i told the eldest child I also was the black sheep in my family. My parents resented me because I was too outspoken and told the truth too often. I sense that is the big problem this house has with children. She then with tears in her eyes gave me a hug as we left the house.
HEY GUYS!!!! Hope you enjoy this one! Worked really hard on it! Let me know what you think!

“Mentalist” is my favorite show I’ve been watching us 100,000 times and still finding surprising and I really do like your videos❤️💖

A lot more coming my friend! I appreciate your enthusiasm! Stick around and ignore my magic trick tutorials hahaha I’ll be working on the mentalist and those simultaneously
Seeing THE MENTALIST and YOU, we newbies see no difference whatsoever xD The both of you make us rethink reality.
The mentalist was, is and will always be my fav tv series :')
I was actually thinking of a circle inside a triangle, not the other way around.
Me, too.
same
i see you watched harry potter
ME TOO!!!
I was thinking of an oval and a star 😂 like all the veggie or thing outside of the car example I was thinking about a tomato and a dog 😭
Dude, you’re freaking amazing.
I love it.
Please post more videos of breaking down The Mentalist.
It’s pretty cool.
And a list of books that every Mentalist/Psychologist should read.
Without Jane, the FBI and CBI would be doomed when it came to finding the criminals ;-;"
Also Mcallister would be roaming around and pretending to be a part of the good side-
You ask, do we want more. This is one of thebest videos I watch in 2 months. Its cool every time you watch master explaining his art.
"Almost no mentalist on this planet is that good..." Yeah well, we all know who the exception is😉 The mentalist was a great series though! I enjoyed hearing your thoughts about it. You're very clever and observant Spidey.
So glad you mentioned Randi, I was a huge fan of his and was lucky to meet and chat with him at one of his conferences in Las Vegas a decade of so ago, which funnily enough is where I met Banacheck, Penn & Teller. You've got a new sub.
Never watched The Mentalist, but absolutely loved how you broke each scene down! You really share a lot of great stuff on this channel that has allowed me to blow away family and friends with "mentalism". (The envelope prediction you did with Shin KILLS every time!!) You also have a way of explaining things that makes it really easy for the layperson to understand. Really appreciate your content!! I have learned so much from you and Jay Sankey! (Thanks for introducing him to us!)
Thanks man! Glad you’re digging it 😊
Thanks, Spidey - really great stuff. By the way, Jane was even more subtle with the triangle in a circle thing than you give him credit for. He also used somatic suggestions, that is, he very loosely suggested the shape with his hands as he was giving the instructions. Darren Brown in the UK does something similar in his TV shows. It's very subtle but also very powerful.
YES PLEASE POST FEW MORE INFORMATIVE MENTALISM VIDEOS LIKE THIS...........
I love how they met redjohn in the second episode
Man, this channel is great. Been looking for this source for a while. Binge time
Haha just started with the breakdowns. Only made 3. Much more ahead! Thanks for your enthusiasm. Hope you enjoy the ones I made so far
@@SpideyHypnosis Hell Yeah, Man nice work.
OH, and I was never really into Mentalism before. Then I saw those breakdowns and little techniques. Hooked now. Chris and Wes will have to wait till I have caught up on the content you got.
In school, you are taught a lesson
and then given a test
In life, you are given a test
That teaches you a lesson
great work man! I CAN DO MENTALISM TOOOOOO!!!!
*riffle force a card... mind read!*
seriously though awesome video man BIG LOVE!!
Thanks bruda!!! ❤️
9:40
I guess a lot of people that knows Paul Ekman knows that his work was the inspiration for Pixar's Inside Out
Yes. That movie is amazing
Very good, my dude. I'm really digging your content.
Awesome video Spidey! Really cool learning about this stuff!!!
I love the new segment. It definitely made my day.
I was thinking of a circle in a triangle.
I absolutely adore the Mentalist, so seeing this vid in my feed was quite a treat! I'm gonna have to change up the video on Patrick Jane I had planned for my channel so I don't repeat anything you said here haha
Shapes: Octagon and Circle, Car: Tree, Vegetables: Green Beans, Tool: Hammer (however if asked not to pick hammer I would have also picked Screwdriver like Teller did)
Please make a second part with following :
1) The disappearing ACE card trick & found then in corpse.
2) sleight of hand in S6E7, when Patrick ran.
3) other mentalism scenes
I’m going season by season I still have enough scenes in season 1 for 2-3 more videos lol. This is going to be a long ride!
@@SpideyHypnosis Thank you for reply. Looking forward to see them.
Spidey reacting to one of my most favorite shows of all time... What could be more fun?...😁 Great video man...
I knew he was gonna say “a triangle in a circle” because that’s the easiest option. (Like you said). So I chose an octagon inside of a triangle xD
But I had a circle in a triangle......
also he shaped them with his hands
thats exactly what i did lolol
@@ANonymous-mo6xp Same.
I did a Hexagon inside a triangle, but I was intentionally thinking "be different"
I think it's also a bit about if it's hard to visualize.
(I did have the triangle inside the circle because I made the decision to see what my mind would come up with. At other times I want to go against the grain and get something unique)
I can visualize a hexagon inside a triangle if I want to, but my mind doesn't like the fact that it's hard to make the edges touch and to "draw" it in my brain
A reaction with tips!! I feel like I am being treated as royalty:) Thank you.
Agreed for sure!!
This is an amazing video I love it. I think that it is awesome and mind blowing the way mentalists as you play with our minds. Also, I like that serie so I would love a second part of this video, like analysing how Patrick Jane hypnotizes people and carries out some other tricks. Could you please make a second part? Pleaseeee
I’m probably going to make a lot of these lol had a blast and there are so many more scenes to cover. Glad you enjoyed it 😊
What an awesome and amazing Series, still one of my favourite ones right now!
The Mentalist is one of my favorites shows! Its awesome to see you talking about it!! There is a card trick in the season 3 that always blow my mind, would be cool to see ur react to that
I’ll get there lol. Still have tons of scenes from season 1 and have to start dissecting 2
@@SpideyHypnosis 👏🏻👏🏻
I thought of a triangle first, but I knew it was too obvious, so when a circle came to mind for the second shape, I changed it to a octogone
The mints trick caught me of guard from you and i am beginning to admire you because of it 😂
Shapes : triangle circle, Vegetable: lettuce, Car: Deer, Tools: Pliers. I'm broken lol
Is your first language English?
@@SpideyHypnosis Yep. but I live in a very rural community with lots of deer and I am a wire artist by trade so the first on the top on my toolbox is pliers so my references are different than the norm. Shrug
@@elibroussard8810 I only asked coz your last name suggests French and in French pliers is a short 1 syllable word. I was just trying to do what Patrick Jayne did in the first scene, deductive reasoning. I failed lol
@@SpideyHypnosis I am from Louisiana originally, hence the name. I guess I am the reason you don't do some of those things to one person. I am an outlier.
I thought of pliers too...my fist language is portuguese, and pliers is kindda long word “alicate” // thought of mountain in the car...probably cuz that’s what I see most of the time where I live//vegetable and shape were correct
This is really interesting!! Always wondered how much of what I see in The Mentalist is actually possible. Great video, thanks Spidey 🙏🏼
Fire video💥💥 the trick you did on brainchild is another great example of psychology in magic trick!
Yep! Was gonna do that instead of the mint trick but the mints is quicker. Good catch though.
Great video man! I would like to add an important part to the Circle and Triangle portion that you didn't mention. The mentalist gestures the triangle and the circle with his hands as he speaks, subconsciously suggesting them, further increasing the odds.
Good, very good video. Just react of the series "lie to me".
You know. I thought about it but the mentalist has a lot more variety of techniques and principles. Lie to me is mostly micro expressions. Fascinating stuff though.
And that "Lie-to-me-guy" is a jerk, I think, and the Mentalist is super cool! ;-)
For the vegetable I thought of broccoli, for looking out the window on a roadtrip I thought of a cow, and for pulling a tool out of a toolbox I thought of a wrench… The thing that sealed the deal in the clip from the Mentalist was the hand motions Patrick was doing: he first motioned in a triangle, then in a circle. I’ve heard Banachek talk about this trick before.
Me also…broccoli, cow, wrench!
You have to remember, he was portrayed as someone that was once a top-teir psychic. He's really using the cold reading techniques that psychics are more likely to use than the typical mentalist. I feel like the show should have really been called "the Psychic". He wasn't trained for entertainment, but rather fraud
That’s a good point. But he also knows a lot about trickery.
Paraphrase: "If it doesn't work, brush it off & move on." Great life advice for many interactions or attempts at anything! If I could not skip a beat but just move forward & try something different with most of life's failures, I'd be a much happier clam. :)
I was thinking rhombus inside a hexagon... Did think carrot and tree but the toolbox I thought socket wrench...
Loved this video, Spidey! Very interesting. Hope you make more of this type of content!
I really need to watch this show again. Still one of the best police drama ever
Excellent break down! Always enjoy your presentations and explanations Spidey. Thank you for your great magic and mental lessons. I was fortunate enough to call Randi a friend. He explained the straw trick to me at a diner in Oahu. He would do it exactly as it was done on the segment you showed. But then he taught me another "upgraded" version. As you gently blow, you stop and turn your head away. By the time the "air" has touched the straw, your head is no longer facing the straw and gives an even more impressive look to the effect. The waitresses expression was priceless and before you knew it, Randi and I were surrounded by the other staff in the diner and not only did we all get a free show, we were treated by the manager as well. I laughed when Randi bent and broke one of the spoons at the table and the waitress quickly grabbed it and ran off saying something like, "I'm keeping this!" He was a great human being and so full of knowledge and willing to share it too. That is why I like following you too! As for the triangle and the circle, yes, I imagined the same design too. For the tools, I guess because I am also a non-believer, I went from HAMMER to SCREWDRIVER and finally to WRENCH. Bottom line, I still mentally chose the HAMMER first. Again, thank you so much for all you do to further our art!! Take care and stay safe Spidey! Magically, Hank Rice from GUAM, USA.
That’s so awesome Hank! Thank you for sharing that wonderful story. I hope James Randi would have enjoyed my videos explaining these TV shows 😊. The head turn is a real convincer. Even James hydrick did it with the phone book which is why it looks so deceptive. He turned his head after the blow.
Thanks for the comment ❤️
@@SpideyHypnosis I am absolutely positive that Jim would have commended you on it! Infact, I bet he would have asked you to join his team of Scam Busters!
I’m concerned I’m broken, circle yes, but hexagon not triangle…. I’m just finding these amazing videos you put up a while ago now and it’s great fun listening to an actual mentalist talk about the show, The Mentalist. Especially when the breakdowns and information are coming from someone with such a good heart who also uses their powers for good in a number of ways but, I’m especially thankful for the amount of time and effort that you put into these videos, and you do it for free!🙏❤️✌️
Lot’s of love and gratitude your way!
❤️🙏✌️-Hillary
Thanks so much 😊 I’m glad you’re enjoying these breakdowns! I try to pack them with good info. And you’re absolutely not broken! Unique and creative! A free thinker! I would argue that you’re the opposite of broken 🤗
I thought of a rectangle (not a square) inside a circle. I was actually kind of concerned that I was being too obvious with the rectangle. :D
Then when he asked about other things, these are seriously the first things that came to mind:
Vegetable: broccoli
Road trip, look out the window and see something: cow
Tool box: (actually, he'd already said hammer or screwdriver before I had a chance to think of anything)
I absolutely LOVE this video Spidey! I can tell you worked really really hard on it. I greatly appreciate your hard work! And I would love to see more of these! I love the psychological aspect of magic and mentalism. Thanks so much!
Just got 13 steps to mentalism - Love the shirt!
I love that triangle-circle thing. It's so simple and beautiful.
The others didn't work so well for me. My vegetable was a potato and my tool was a wrench. And I even ate carrots an hour ago but I still thought potato.
Ha. If it helps, wrench is the third most common one 😅
I thought about a triangle in a circle… 😊
Shapes: pentagon, triangle car: bird vegetable: lettuce tool: plier
Hotel: Trivago
Same for shapes but it was a bit of a cheat as I worked out the misdirection when he removed square
Celery, Cow, Wrench was what came to mind immediately for me
I though about a circle inside an hexagon. But to be fair, I saw all of the episode of that show so even if I don't remember that specific scene consciously maybe my unconscious mind does and purposely made me think to a different set of shapes.
Yoooo the triangle in the circle thing really got me, truly was not expecting, bet it won't work twice tho
I love the mentalist, I started liking mentalism after I watched this. Now it's 1. Mentalism
2. Sleight of hand.
Wow good to see one of my favourite youtubers react on my favourite show.
Every single thing you said got me. Vegtable, Tool, Car Window, everything... Good to know I am so basic. lol
Really enjoyed this episode and hoping for more! I also chose circle inside triangle. Also, I know Lior Suchard claims he can't lose at rock, papers, scissors and maybe you can react on how real that is, and how he does it.
Humans are incapable of purely random thoughts. There's always a pattern, however complex, meaning decisions can be anticipated with some degree of accuracy.
I love James Randy. He's a straight beast!
He led the description of a triangle and a circle non-verbally with his hand gestures. It was obvious.
I thought of a circle initially, but thought I'd trip him up by thinking of a triangle. Then I thought of a circle. Amazing!
Hahahahaha wow
I thought of a star in a circle.
The fridge photos, is exactly what intelligence analysts and interrogators do. There was a contractor that came in all the time and standing orders were for everyone to stop typing when she was there. Allegedly, she could peek what we were typing, by listening to the rhythm of key strokes. I must assume there was something to it, for military intelligence to stop work, while she was around.
That’s so awesome. Mentalist’s definitely don’t do any of that lol
@@SpideyHypnosis
Obviously, analysis is not as simple as glancing a photo, but the right photo can tell you as much about someone as a dating profile.
Anybody else love the movie Inside Out. Just reevaluate the movie after watching this and you will find that it is a very deep movie. Also I had a circle inside a triangle but I also have the deathly hallows on the brains. Still there must have been some thing there. Also shout out to Psychology and sociology the studies that will change the world. Lets get more people on board!!
Not only is inside out brilliantly written but in the beginning when she’s a baby running around the house every single line that every single character says makes perfect sense for that character. It’s amazing
@@SpideyHypnosis And just a side note but just incredibly special and personal, it was the first movie my wife and I went on a date to see in theaters so it just had such an amazing impact. My wife went to school for psychology so we just saw so much more of a story. Just awesome!!
I’d forgotten how much I liked that show. Thanks for separating the real from the fake for us.
Thanks :) I’m up to 6 videos on the subject and there’s a lot of fun bits in some of them. Hope you check those out too
youtube: no views
also youtube: 4 likes
me: ...
Love this video! Would appreciate more breakdowns, I like Wes Barker's breakdowns he's been doing but mentalism-specific explanations of shows like this is quality content and very unique (unless you know of other similar channels on UA-cam, I can't seem to find it).
Been learning from your tutorials since last September when I started magic. Thank you so much for all the videos Spidey!
I really like this idea to react on magicians. WES BARKER also does it and I love this type of vedios you should do such type of reaction vedios 😇😇
This was so good Spidey! Keep up the awesome videos man!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I had a circle in a triangle, other way around
I thought of a triangle inside a diamond. Close enough.
Oh yes, I like these videos of analysing films/tc shows. Great video!
next video : real magician reacts to mentalist reacting to a mentalist movie .
Hey man!!
I really love your content on here!!
I’m a magician as well and when I first started learning, you were one of the first people I started learning from!!
All in all, keep up the amazing work man!! It’s getting you a long way!!
Wait! How'd you make the mints disappear?? Damn that Spidey is good.
Thumb tip
Hi did the quick sleight of hand where he opened the full one and chucked them all into his mouth and ate them so fast you didn't even notice!!
I admit that it was Patrick Jane and the series that got me into Mentalism and it's that same book on the shirt you have on that I read to get on my magic. It was so good, read it in one day
Hey spidey. Can you react to the show Elementary.
PS: I love the mentalist.
Loved the analysis, would like to see more.
And after watching this video, I'm planning on re-watching Mentalist, lol 😅
I tried the triangle circle trick to my little brother and now he thinks Im from another universe
I beat my daughter in rock paper scissors all the time because she always throws what could beat the last thing i threw so i always know what her next throw will be
I still don't fricking understand how this show never blew up!!
I imagined a circle inside a triangle!
How do popular mentalists guess credit card pins of strangers? How do they guess a name or thing?
Spidey's videos are excellent and have a touch of genuineness.
I have a lot of tutorials on the channel for things like that
What a great video Spidey ....
..saw u after a long time
Once I was a guest at a very rich families house. I took a few moments to look at the parents book shelf. It had a few books on problem children. Which was odd because the family had good children. I asked the mother about her life with her kids. The conversation then revolved around how difficult her oldest was. I spent some with the children. Before my time with the family ended i told the eldest child I also was the black sheep in my family. My parents resented me because I was too outspoken and told the truth too often. I sense that is the big problem this house has with children. She then with tears in her eyes gave me a hug as we left the house.
