Having such balls is what makes it work, he exhudes confidence and it forces people to go along with him. Such interesting stuff.
The language he uses too. Telling the man “its fine, its fine, take it” as he hands him the ‘money’. It is utter genius. Derren is telling him what to do, literally telling him! So clever
It’s also his speech.
He floods them with random questions and stories to fluster and distract them along with adding “take it, it’s fine” along with it. It’s mostly to do with flustering them and distracting them from what’s really going on.
Imagine having to tell your boss at the jewelers that you accidentally took paper not money
i did to my friend who's owner of the jewlery something diferent....he's been thinking real money is the paper... puting ppl in trance is very easy...Human perception is very easy to manipulate.
I love how a jeweller accepts paper for a £4500 ring, and a guy on the hotdog stand calls him up on it
Very true. Being a street vendor in New York, you would have to have your guard up at all times. Sad in a way, probably used to people trying to pull a fast one.
@@R.S_Howellindeed, street smarts. These guys have seen it all. I once spoke to a traffic officer (he was off duty) and I was amused at all the stories he told me about people justifying their infractions.
Working with people face to face every day, and particularly on the street, it makes you very perceptive to BS.
The guy at the jeweller got plenty money, but the hot dog stand guy its life or death lol
I loled so hard when he was given change for paper hahahahaa
TechXSoftware Maybe because the numbers he talks about at the fishmonger are 18.55 (how much the fish costs) and 20 (years). I bet he gives him 1.45 of change! Or at least 45 cents.
Rampensau24
I don't believe the shopkeeper would have not noticed when figuring out the change.
The change was probably just some buttons. And the soles were off some old shoes!
its silly, because the shopkeeper would have had to have a certain note in his mind that hed been given to work out the change, but he wasnt given a note at all... so for that... im out. (i dont believe it) i think its just acting for TV.
'Just take it it's fine' is obviously the key here, Likelihood is Derren has tried is out beforehand. Guessing the hotdog vendor wasn't actually listening to Derren so It never registered
Gothams Reconing
the hotdog verdor was probably a good muslim, this is why the magic did not affect him
Demons can not harm someone who's praising God always
nope.
they were victims of the american government plot to invade Afghanistan and Iraq
The ones he gets wrong must really shake his confidence; I couldn't imagine failing with a hotdog salesman then having the balls to try it in a jewellery store!
Hotdog guy was streetwise, probably needed the money a lot more and also appeared not to be a native English speaker.
I think all these elements prevented the trick from working.
What prevented the trick from working on the hot dog guy and why it worked on the jewelry store guy seems fairly simple to me: one guy was actually listening intently and the other wasn't.
It's a big part of the job for a clerk at a high end jewelry store to be well spoken and attentive to their upscale customers. It's ass kissing, really. Thereby, with a mindset like that, they'd be a lot easier to get sucked into something like this.
The hot dog vendor just flat out didn't give a shit what he was talking about and was only focused on the money. He didn't get sucked into the conversation so he couldn't be fooled.
Just the way he hands the paper and goes 'Take it, it's fine, it's fine!' about something completely different.. so cool.
these people may have been pre brainwashed to the key words 'take it its fine"
Exactly. He slides it inside his sentences to give the impression that he's asking for directions, the command itself is noticed I the back of their minds, but they don't pick it up knowingly.
as someone who worked as a cashier and on multiple occasions absentmindedly almost accepted the wrong amount of money/gave back the wrong change/handed a used coupon back to the customer just because she held out her hand for it (and with no deliberate preparation or attempt to convince me to do it), I can absolutely believe this is possible, although I suspect Derren had more misses than hits when attempting it and also that he perhaps spent more time talking to the people in the shops than is shown
Ppl working as cashier are very easy to put in trance , on luxyru places even more bcz their politenes
I've said it before and I'll say it again, you're half right :)
I wondered the same thing, this video scares me so much! someone can just take control of your mind like that???
I challenge you to pull this blank paper trick on Chinese or Indian shopkeepers ANYWHERE on the World!
I watched this litteraly last night. and I got scammed today. it's crazy how with the tinyest bit of authority I was just following stupid commands that didn't logically make sense. no money was stolen but I still ended up having a panic attack. con artists are so good at what they do
In your defense, that ring was probably actually the same value as the paper you gave him anyway.
+Kehozer It was a joke. Diamonds aren't actually worth that much, considering how many there are in the world :p
NarratingFox Aren't diamonds worth a fair amount? just curious, how aren't they valuable?
Kehozer Well put in a different way, most tools you can find at a hardware store are diamond tipped, as diamond is the sharpest material in the world (I think).
Diamonds can actually be made by compressing carbon material with heat, which is insanely common. This process is getting cheaper and cheaper as more efficient ways of generating heat are found.
The reason jewelry with diamonds cost so much is that manufacturers limit how many get shipped out to affiliated companies so they can shove the prices up. In reality, they likely have mountains of them waiting.
It's also why if you try returning a ring, you get offered so much less than what you initially paid for.
imo, the "just take it it's fine" phrase is NOT the key to convincing merchants to accept blank paper as money. it's only the trigger. there's obviously a tremendous amount of prep work that derren doesn't disclose in these videos that goes into making these situations pay off. this prep work is the key. because he doesn't disclose it, that's why so many people are skeptical that such simple tactics would work in real life. if you tried simply what's disclosed in this video to pay for stuff in philly (i.e., saying "just take it it's fine" a few times and handing someone blank paper), you'll get punched in the face 999,999 times out of a million.
derren undoubtedly had a team prep the jeweler through dozens of subliminal messages over a course of many hours prior to his visit to the store. once derren's team had subconsciously primed the jeweler to accept the blank paper as money upon hearing certain "trigger" words, this is where this video STARTS.
+smartknowledgeu but you dont know that.
He's clearly distracting them and putting in there head
+smartknowledgeu Not really. It's just conversational hypnosis. You really don't need to prep someone at all. Just a bit of confusion to distract the conscious, a command of 'take it' to the subconscious, and off you go. If he did more prep time, the person wouldn't come out of the trance so fast after he left.
But ya, there have actually been hypnosis robberies caught on camera and they do similar techniques. Distract the conscious, command the subconscious, be calm and casual so as not to reawaken any suspicion and off you go...
+smartknowledgeu I doubt your claim of "undoubtably." Clearly "just take it" isn't the key, just as moving my hands on a guitar is not the key to playing it. The key is Derren's years of experience and making it look, for the most part, effortless. I don't watch a video of Brian May or whoever and think "X is the key to his playing", I think "so he spent thousands of hours to be able to do this."
Walks in shop.
Can I buy some of your soul please?
Pays with paper.
#Relatable
I love the fact that Derren makes no claim that he's a magician (or at least state says he's not the stereotypical magician) and states that all his tricks are a combo of hypnotic suggestion and illusion etc. Which just makes things even funnier if he accidentally messes up, good example woulld be that suggestion doesn't work on everyone (hey everybody's different) resulting in the hotdog guy calling him an a**hole
I love this channel i tried to pay my mom back with paper and she called me stupid 😂
Lathen Harris Should've mentioned how intimidated you are by subways. XD
I've been watching these shows since I was about 10 years old, and I always wondered how this could work. But it's really great, your shows have helped me over the years.
these people may have been pre brainwashed to the key words 'take it its fine"
I enjoy watching Derren perform. One day I’ll be in England to watch him live.
hot dog vendor: Your jedi mind tricks have no effect on me
But he did notice. After the initial confusion wore off, he came outside, looking for Derren. I think it's amazing how he pulled this off.
maybe the trick doesn't work on the hit dog guy because of the language barrier, he has to think over the words more. and he moght not catch all words that were said
Personally i think the dog guy just didn''t give a damn what that weird Brit was saying. He just cared about getting his gorramn bucks.
It's because the HotDog guy is serving people ALL day, who make small talk, and he is NOT listening.
@@meatfactory jealousy isn't a good look. I always love it when a YT commentator under a video of someone doing something impressive - this or an amazing sports stunt - says "fake" just because they can't do it or can't figure out how something is done.
Always remembered this one, one of his best.
I think the reason why the trick didn't work on the hotdog vendor is that whereas the fishmonger and jeweller were expecting someone to do business, the hotdog vendor was expecting to be ripped off.
This made my day. Thank you, Derren.
At the fish market: "I'd just wrap any old shit up, you'll like this. Tenner, rip you off."
For 8 years old this is still really enjoyable
"Take it, take it its fine" its interesting how Derren Brown does this
I see what he is doing with language; I just can’t believe it actually works. He must have tried it 50 times; and it worked twice.
I saw Darren Brown preform when I was in New York City back in 2017 when I was 19.
Because there's nothing to dislike about it, pure genius
"just there on the corner" - Think he is distracting their view to the corner of the paper so as not to notice the blankness? I've been to see Derren Brown live 3 times now, and STILL struggle to pick up on his little hints! Brilliant man.
So what happens here is: He basically thinks for them because of the confine work space they are in. When they're in their workspace, they aren't surprised of their surroundings, making them not as perceptive as they would be if they were working in a Hot Dog stand, and no. The reason it didn't work for Darren is not because he thought he thinks he would be 'mugged', but it is because he is aware of his surroundings- especially because he is outside in the open; in public, and every gesture used would add up for him.
So he has figured out which people to target, and so he does. He enters the Jewelry shop to buy the ring. He asks the price and Derren shows him the wallet. I don't know what type of wallet design he specifically used, but it must be a wallet that defines the persona Derren is trying to put on. Derren shows him his wallet, the shopkeeper looks away to avoid any awkward eye contact with the wallet, and the money in the wallet. As soon as Derren pulls the money out, whether it be plain paper or just the actual money to pay for the ring in general. Derren distracts him as uses his 'keywords', where your conscious decides its conversational, like a tone, and you just go along with it...like music sort of. However, whilst your conscious is at work, your sub-conscious is doing something completely different. The keywords Derren used are imprinted in your subconscious. And however these words are structured around the original conversation, impact the decisions made on your brain. Or at least it distracts you and makes you perceptive of everything else except the money Derren decided to give you.
That's my theory about this and it makes sense to me. I'm not really educated in this whole 'how your mind works' kinda thing, I just take anything I can pick up from
I use to do it but not with papers but anyway... it work with 2 and not with 1 cuz 2 are in more stress =thinking of family bills or whatever and when you keep talking to these 2 kind of guys they get snapped or in daydream word aft3r every 10 seconds and othef guy was relax free from stress you cant snaped him bottom line target have to be in stress...but its evil art anywys cuz it was used for gain.. more you do it more confidence will build in and more natuel will get.. hell I used to steal drugs like that.. " but its all evil...he will see objects move also and future and knowing what is in once heart.. then he will be nice little devil lmao
A mixture of distraction, suggestion, and misdirection. He never stops talking while making the transaction so the people never have time to think about what's happening and while he passes the money you notice him saying "take it, take it as fine." which sends a message to their brain to do what he said because he's the master of tricking people into doing what he wants.
This is a comment that explains how simple Derren's trick really is, how it ACTUALLY works, how I can do it myself but have no footage of it, and also probably something about Muslims.
+DaveDexterMusic this is a reply completely unrelated to the original comment, demonstrating idiocy, cognitive dissonance, and ends with tying to genitalia.
azam sarwar
On most of Derren's videos, this included, a lot of people spend time telling other people how the trick is done, often following the format I laid out.
***** okay but i didn't get the part of being a Muslim. why would a Muslim be different from a Jew or a Christian.
+DaveDexterMusic You mean like you did?
So you intentionally lit a spark, and expected the rest to pour fuel on it?
So you're an instigator?
Derren Brown - "Can I buy some of your soul?"
People: "Yes of course I'll even throw in some diamond rings." Seriously this guy is a master of manipulation.
1:21 That cheeky grin
Not gonna lie, Derren is one of my favourite people alive.
The Art of Subliminal Communication with Respect and Determination Seems Easy
After having read some his books and watched every show there is to watch, i have to say, I can almost understand what parts he keeps 'hidden' from us viewers. Such as the parts where he gets those people to register in their minds phrases like 'take it it's fine and subway stations'. We never see the entire conversation he has with them, which can last somewhere between 2 to 10 minutes. So the trick he does is to register those words while flipping his wallet infront of their eyes, so they can register in their minds that a)he has a wallet full of money b)he is going to pay cash. Of course he picked those guys after an extended investigation from a partner or many partners of him Before his appearance. Maybe those people helped register the words in their minds. In case you are foolish enough to believe that the second one failed, keep in mind that the first rule in a Trick is to make the audience believe you. So in other words he stood no chance with the hot dog stand and he knew it, but threw it in the show as an extra for YOU to believe that he is actually 'trying'. So that you will want him to succeed. And he does after carefully 'hypnotizing' his 'victims' PRIOR to the meeting (maybe even days or months before) in order for him to go and make the final step of the trick. Every trick takes preperation, and the most complex ones take a good amount of preperation, such as learning your 'victim', having ready made blank money notes, and so on.. Derren is Smart, but he finds people to fool of a certain 'brain state' (i don't want to use the word dumb). Anyone who had watched his shows knows that. A smart/alerted 'victim' is no good for him. So, in other worlds he is a very good methodical manipulator of less alerted/smart people. Fun fact : The wallet at the end is empty, meaning that he KNEW exactly how much he was going to pay. ;)
What are you saying? He knew exactly how much he was paying? that doesn't even matter, he was paying with blank paper.. its not like 1 piece of paper is worth 500 dollars so he knew exactly that he had to take 7 pieces of paper.....l
"You know, my dad's 65..." Derren loses the plot.
"My fence is not 6.2 feet high" - An example he explains when training regular people to pull off a similar stunt in an old special on channel 4. It is about interrupting a thought pattern to confuse, by saying something you have to think about to understand, as you end up thinking "what does that have to do with anything?" or "What do you mean?", and therefore force someone to stop what they were thinking. So that phrase was extremely carefully chosen.
Saw Derren perform his Infamous show this week, at the Lowry, Manchester. He was completely mind blowing.
Maybe this is how derren got the show. Just do it to channel 4 producers.
I believe the reason it did not work on the guy selling the hot dog was because he relies so much on all the small transactions during the day to make his living. He has no interest in customer service. He serves a greasy hot dog and cherishes every penny he is paid. People working in fine establishments assume customers are able to pay, especially walking in wearing a nice suit. They focus more on customer service and the money is only a minor part in the transaction of selling.
***** Yeah because he says "take it take it, it's fine, dont be intimidated"
MrMacrofl its probably because the Hot dog vendor doesn't really give a shit about what Derren said
@@comicsans6487 You clearly have no understanding of how easy it is to manipulate the human brain.
How was the first guy able to give him change without knowing how much he was paid?
Matt Sturgeon
That doesn't make sense. He would have had to count the money to make sure he gave the right change...
Crayzy Mann Price to pay was £18.55 so you'd expect most people to give you 20 in notes
But it's barely even a small business. No one in their right mind is just going to assume that's how it was paid for if their entire income (presumably) depended on it. They would be very conscious of the money they handle.
Maybe your'e right an I'm just being hopeful that some people would pay more attention to their conscious mind in such situations than rely on their subconscious...
I see where you're coming from, but the whole point of the clip (and a lot of Brown's work) is to show how people who would normally be very careful to check the payment can be manipulated into doing things they wouldn't think they would ever be stupid enough to do, by using techniques such as misdirection and suggestion.
Haha of course. I was watching the video forgetting he is a trained professional at what he does. I was watching it with the idea he was a regular person. I'm not sure why, I've seen a lot of his work and know what he does. He truly is a master manipulator that's for sure. I wonder if he's married haha
Dude, shenanigans is precisely what derren brown is doing.
His smile :p
Sooo amazing!
the look on his face whilst walking away :)
(1) Distract them with a question
(2) Keep bombarding them with questions and small talk so they focus on that
(3) Suggest and insist the money is real while still asking questions
(4) Profit
Thanks for the explanations !
I didn't knew it.
I'm an American and a huge fan. I wish these shows were available on TV. I already have a few of the DVDs. I've been spreading the word and maybe some day you'll get some real recognition over here.
Haha... This is probably real. Where I'm from, we used to hear about this man that would go around to the local gas stations with a $100 bill and ask if he could get change for it. After they said yes, he'd go on to ask for something like "a Fifty, 3 Twenties, 2 Tens, a Five, and 5 Ones."... The trick never failed to work. So, he made $40 every time he did this, and I don't believe he was ever caught.. In conclusion, cashiers do not think for themselves.
Uhh I work on a checkout sometimes and I would never fall for that... Maybe its just how you put it but a fifty 3 twnties 2 tens a five and five ones? lmao Where do you live man some giant fucking downy town
Johnny Twohats It's a common scam but by the sounds of it only the stupid ones fall for it.
A trance can be entered into quite easily by doing something repetitive and boring. Do you realise how bad it is to be a cashier, same conversation over and over, same hand movements, you have to zone out to not lose your mind. So yeah you're gonna fuck up the change if some ass decides to mess with you in that state.
i was a cashier in high school and had this trick attempted on me more than once
thankfully i'm the type of person who stops a conversation whenever i'm lost to get back on track
Derren is really intimidated by those subway systems :)
Listen when he says "Take it. Take it, it's fine!"
And that's the punch line of the whole gig! :)
I just watched this video and recognized that it was from years ago from the Gatorade bottles.... magic!
oooooooh he stealin'!!!!
He said "I was a bit intimidated to take the subway ITS FINE ITS FINE" That makes the people stop thinking
Darren Brown,
this is amazing! Very good video!! interesting and informative. I think I'm going to try this out 😂😂
@@Paul_Templer 40+ years i'm still free, i using fake account and i'm in politics and selling u fog... ;)
I don't understand the rest of the trick but as he was telling his story and he handed the money over he kept saying "take it". Power of suggestion. Don't understand the rest though.
See how at the start when he said "i'd like to, can i by the ????" That was when he started the trance. Something about confusing the mind and making it less concious of what goes on around you
+First of all let me say- He also needed to have intimidation in his mind. And defeated any doubts by saying its fine
From what I understand of his tricks he basically got the vendors to take the blank paper as money by doing a few things. Firstly as soon as a price was decided the focus on the money was taken away, he asked questions about the city and the vendors which obviously took their train of thought elsewhere. The second thing he did was (like you said) subconsciously tell the vendors to take the money, and he did this by saying the phrase take it in a rather powerful and repetitive way. The last thing that I found interesting was on the last vendor who sold him the ring for $4500, he used the phrase "I've been thinking the wrong way'. This suggests to me that he was almost trying to completely rearrange the vendor's ideas about what was valid money and what wasn't.
And also touching helps... usually the hands, arms, or head work, but depends on the user. if they flinch, you do a different spot, and as you are saying the 'suggestive' words you gently tap them so the rest is blurred out and they focus on that moment. I watched a documentary about that once, but forgot the guy's name. typical.
It's much simpler than anyone suggests, he's using matching and mirroring and leading and pacing, asking questions that they will agree to automatically so that when he does say just take it they are already in a that mindset
I did it I stuck two pieces of paper in my money box now I have 100 dollars. yeah
I never tire of watching this haha:')
The king of finessing
I've done this before by accident although not exactly with blank paper and have been doing it occasionally since. It works about one time out of 5 but I'm sure I could improve my technique.
Just play with a 20 dollar bill in your hand, well on sight, when having a friendly conversation with the cashier and subtly pay with a 10 dollar bill. You'll often get change for a 20.
Works better if you're not American. All American dollar notes stupidly look the same. :)
Josianne Comptois That's why they look the same, so you have to look at the numbers. Although, we managed to get one of our registers $90+ over one evening because one of our workers accidentally gave change for a $10 instead of a $100. The guy never came back for the correct amount, so we all split it as tip money. Moral of the story: count your change.
Just so you know, cashiers usually get paid close to minimum wage, and at the end of their workday the money they have left is counted and compared to what should be left. When money is missing, they likely get at least a slap on the wrist.
So by tricking these people, you're maybe saving 10 bucks, but the cashiers get a bad closing day with their boss in return, which affects their livelihood.
hope they returned the stuff
They would have been told that they were being filmed and then after they were tricked they would probably have been payed back in real cash. just a guess😕
+Tom Coates if they do not approve to being filmed they have to blur the faces in editing. The stuff was returned or else the'd never get to show to footage as it is now. :)
Would be kind of dumb to film it and then post it on his YT channel if he hadn't returned it.
That's the kind of thinking that gets you in trouble, that is wondering and hoping...
Lucid you cant, if the person found out about said video, they can sue you.
This is classic Milton Erickson hypnosis technique
This man is of a different kind
Never trust a magician when he tells you how a trick is done. When Derren Brown says he's "using the power of suggestion" your first instinct should be to cast a wary eye his direction and say "Oh, you are, are you?".
but that's what he wants you to think. i think he's a master manipulator, less so a magician though it could seem that way.
I love the way the first thing he does is buy a man's "sole" for nothing. Given Derren, I can't believe for a moment that wasn't intentional!
I tried this several years ago with a girlfriend. "I was a bit intimidated with lollipops, but my friend said suck it, suck it it's fine".....it got me a slap....Thanks a fucking lot Derren!!!. :)
you r the best derrenbrown
It was at this moment the salesman realized he fucked up 3:30
the bottom line is that we all like to think we are smart / clever / observant... but all get hoodwinked, rollered everyday by ever more subtle and sometimes gross adverts / misdirection be it by mitsake or on porpoise...
“So just Take It, Take It”
Impressive, he catches them out by confusing them. Making them think of one thing, while at the same time telling them what he's handing them is correct. They stand there confused thinking 'why did he hand me paper, but he said it's ok so it must be' then he leaves before their confusion wears off ;)
The only thing I can't understand about this is how the shopkeepers count the money and give Derren change. I know how he did it and know this is real, but it's confusing.
Probably because they assume he gave them the amount rounded up. so if it totals 19.55, they give him .45 assuming they were given 20 dollars.
Then again this is staged.
"You know my dads 65?"
I cant tell if that was a last ditch effort to try and get a number in rhe mans head, or if it was a last ditch effort to distract the man from the fact that the money isnt real. Maybe a bit of both.
Love Derren's cheeky smile at 0:23 ;))
Just after I was born the doctor gave me to my mom saying "Take him. Hes fine, hes fine".
SO MUCH SWAG!
After seeing 4 of derrens live shows and reading both his books , I can confirm that this is most probably very real! He's a very clever guy. The entire setup is designed to influence the shopkeepers. A well dressed, seemingly innocent white tourist and uses lots of trigger words to create the trust. The entire story is to make the other person not think about what they're doing, this explains why he randomly said his dad is 65, it's to throw the shopkeeper off
Its the shopkeepers fault for accepting the paper, Derren just took advantage of something he could... good man
HOW COULD HAVE THE FIRST SHOPKEEPER RETURN THE CHANGE WITHOUT CHECKING THE MONEY
...the shopkeeper wasn't paying attention because Darren tried to get his mind on something else which he did. The shopkeeper must of though he gave him something like a twenty and as he knew the cost of the fillet buy working their again and again, he didn't think he just gave the usual amount of change.
AndThatIsOwnage . And what about the $4500... I mean that has to be 45 bills and all hundreds so it cant feel right if youre handed a small stack of papers.
Here's a method which doesn't require any mind control at all: There is a cut between the examination of the ring and the jeweler putting the item in the box. Darren could have ended buying a much cheaper piece, something that might be only $20. Darren hands the jeweler some bills with paper wrapped around them (almost like an envelope). Notice how the jeweler squares the stack up by the side away from the camera. The crease could have been on the side facing the camera. In fact if you pause at 3:05 it looks like there is a crease in the paper. This is essentially a pocket with cash in it.
The Jeweler thumbs through the pocket when someone walks in front of the camera and takes another quick peak a moment later. The item is cheap and the jeweler sees money in the pocket, so he doesn't yell for security when Darren quickly takes the bag and leaves. The jeweler counts the money and realizes Darren has over paid. Or maybe Darren actually did the rob the store and underpaid. Maybe this is why the jeweler talks to the woman and looks concerned. Either way, he goes outside to see if he can catch Darren, who is long gone.
I'm not saying this is how he does it. But if my options were that vs. spending decades mastering mind control, then spending weeks conditioning a shop owner, and then stealing something valuable enough that it might send me to prison.... I'd probably go the easy route. That's just me though.
Oh, it could also be totally faked.... But that couldn't be. A man who deals in deception would never deceive his audience like that, would he?
That is awesome!
He really is amazing and I'd love to know how he does all of these things he does as it's fascinating! After watching as much of him as possible, there really is a hell of lot that goes into everything he does.
He's such an amazing person and maybe, one days, I'll be able to go to one of his performance 😊
Mate I was him perform at my local theatre yesterday and I’m still shook this morning. Man is something else. All of the little things throughout the show that you don’t pay much mind to or forget and they all come together at the end to completely mind fuck you 🤯 I love it so much haha great dude
My husband and I watched his shows a lot, when none of our friends had heard of him. For our last anniversary, he surprised me by taking me to a show. I had no idea until I got out of the cab and saw the marquee!
Either this is fake, or these are the two attempts out of many that he tried. Very many.
"asshole"
"thank you, my friend"
Miraculous use of conversational hypnosis "take it, take it's fine, it's fine" genius
I'd love it to be real but it can't be. A jeweller would not sell something without checking they've paid the full amount.
its funny you saying that because you can see the jeweller count the "dollar bills".
Yes, but you'd count it PROPERLY. Just saying 'take it' doesn't affect your ability to count.
It’s fine,
I SAID ITS FINE JUST TAKE THESE BLANK PIECES OF PAPER.
No one man should have this much power

Derren Brown: Master thief
He tried to use a confusional tactic with the hotdog guy i.e. "my dad is 65", but it didn't work because of the language barrier.
He just flat out stole that ring.
"can i buy some of your sole (soul)" great joke there.

I think it works better on people of the same culture, native English speakers, because the hypnosis uses well-known, ingrained phrases from the language.
