Derren Brown Has James Eat Glass

[@stevenbridges]

I LOVE how James is putting the effort in to really communicate to the viewers how great Derren is. He knows that Derren isn't known in America and is really selling him. Awesome job!

[@alandbs329]

StevenBridges eh, Corden is like that with everyone. He's the human equivalent of a Labrador. What I'm trying to say, is he's an idiot. 🙈

[@s10dlka]

I'm so envious of Americans who haven't heard of him before and I'm excited for them that they'll be watching his videos and shows for the first time. He truly is a national treasure in UK. Push in particular was very interesting and personally a very inspirational show. Love this guy!

[@AperturePowered]

Corden switched up like crazy. I get it though, I think you could tell he was waiting for it.

[@laguna4video]

the guy needs to be knighted, he really is one of a kind.

[@s10dlka]

Michael Stuart yeah he definitely deserves one. He's deserved a knighthood for the last few years! But knighthoods have become cheapened now. If people like Nick Clegg and Eamonn Holmes got a knighthood, he shouldn't care about them too much.

[@JonWayes]

He was in the USA years ago for a previous TV show and it did well. A KZbin friend of mine also saw his show in NYC last year & people loved it. Needless to say, Hypnotist/Illusionists such as myself actually look up to Derren and often admire his work. Looking forward to another visit from the man himself!

GrudgeHXRRXR .?

[@ErikBongers]

I have no idea how Derren planted a list of words in James' head, but the rest is pretty straightforward (I think). Derren eats a real piece of glass. That's practice and making sure you absolutely reduce glass to powder before swallowing. But James eats a piece of sugar that Derren has planted on the napkin right after he pulled it towards him. Right here: 4:55. That piece is actually a little opaque. The piece probably has a thin coating to seal the sugar taste for some short time. The apple is meant to hide the sugar flavor while chewing. The water dissolves the sharp edges of the sugar. Hence the pause before swallowing. The genius part is the questioning, which, not so coincidentally, starts right after James starts chewing. The thing is, lying requires full concentration and doesn't allow for multi-tasking...like chewing. That still leaves open, how Derren planted a limited set of words in James' head. No idea, and a little bit creepy, to be honest.

[@LeAlejx]

Yeah I think that's it

[@irongirl7619]

awesome

[@festivitycat]

Great spot!

[@Doofer911]

Yeah if you listen carefully you can hear it drop into the pile of glass. Classic misdirection getting everyone to focus on the piece that James is holding. As for "planting" words in James' head, Derren has done a tv episode years ago and one thing he focused on was advertising and marketing and how it's used to influence people. In the episode he gets a couple of advertisers to design a logo for him but what they don't know is that he's already influenced them through subliminal messaging to design a logo almost identical to one he was thinking of. Here's the video for anyone who's interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4K7lmR5pNCKp7M

[@sloma111]

@Erik Thank You. Finally someone thinking! The guessing trick was hipnosis, and its not only sugar thats eadible and reassambles glass. Im sure. Though it might been sugar and apple to cover the taste. This trick would be impossible if he used random bulb with different curvature than the "sugar piece" he planted.

[@girlsinnottingham2201]

It’s hard to understate how huge derren is here in the uk. Hope he gets a break in America, as someone who’s seen him live, he is 100% legit

[@nicksully6663]

Yeah, his live show is incredible

[@tazzzx]

i was so against him 6-7 years ago about him and my friends convinced me to go at Hippodrome in Bristol and watch one of his shows and i was keep saying its all staged and actors and everything and then all of the sudden he randomly chose one of my friends and he hypnotized him and he made him drink a whole pint of vinegar. i was just speechless and since then im one of his biggest fan! he is truly genius and im so happy he got me wrong

[@rapidexo8151]

Is this honestly true?

[@kaybrann]

Some of Derren Brown's stage shows are on KZbin, and in one of them he makes a woman drink a glass of vinegar, because she thinks it's cola.

[@kokokoko344]

How did your friend feel afterwards?

[@ronsiew]

Would be funny if your friend was in on it .

[@mognag6869]

I’ll drink a pint of vinegar without having to be hypnotised lol.

[@kiltxan1642]

I was hoping he would joke at the end and say "I actually have no idea what you are thinking. I just wanted to see you eat some glass"

[@medway00]

it's gonna be a painful poop the next morning!

[@EPS5000]

Chewed up glass turns to sand in the body. His poop will be fine. Eating glass is something magicians have been doing for decades.

[@yanivsteltzer8425]

ts probably not real glass. they probably switch to sugar glass. hence the apple. apple is sweet. you wont know the differnce since youre eating apple same time as the 'fake sugar glass'

[@tobbolly8319]

What a charming little 'clink' sound at 4:56, as Dezzer drops a substitute into the glass pile. Excellent trick, as always DB.

[@NeaEmrys]

It's hard to tell what he was doing, since it could easily just be him accidentally touching the table or the napkin with the glass on it. But it's likely he eat real glass, while he slipped James the fake one, since it wasn't necessary that James actually ate glass as long as he thought he did. LOL Either way it's absolutely riveting performance as always. XD

True true, and you're right, it is riveting.

I've never seen Derren mix the glass eating trick with the "think of anything" trick but I'm glad he did. The two work excellently together to enhance the illusion.

[@Zozo-ke2dl]

like when he makes his heart stop onstage, or talks across glass, or hammers a nail up his nose - those are his gory ones particularly, but Derren has a knack for convincingly acting in pain or sickness.

[@howlongcanyoumakeyournameo7060]

4:56 i hear the sound of something drop onto the pile of glass (while his hand was down), i have a feeling he dropped a piece of ‘sugar glass’ onto the pile, then later on gave it to James, and told him to eat it with the apple so james cant tell that its sugar glass.

[@djsyn3rgyuk]

I think you're right. But HE still ate glass :)

[@jeffo9396]

Good catch, and I think you're right. I've followed Derren Brown for over a decade, and while he always puts himself at risk, he never puts anybody else at risk, even though he makes you think that he is. But James and the audience thought it was real glass, and that's where the illusion part of it came in. As for Derren using cold reading to know what James was thinking, that part is real.

[@hofifut]

that's why the trick works.... misdirection makes you concentrate on the glass shit... and not how he can guess the Sydney/matchbox thing

[@ariw]

@@azurevenus7281 James wouldn't have let it touch his tongue for fear of cutting his tongue. Hence the apple has time to mask the sugar before he tastes it.

[@kp338]

2:22 Does anyone else hear him say Oz, as in Australia?

[@ponchred]

Clueless

[@toniforrestal]

very very well spotted. Yes, these are the kinds of things he does to influence a person. As some of the other commentators here also noted, the shape of the apple slices was of the opera house in Sydney. I'd imagine there are a good few other give aways with this, but it takes a while to analyze. He is just amazing!

[@studmalexy]

that's a bit of a stretch isn't it?...would he really be influenced just by one word?

[@kp338]

studmalexy Not just one word, it’s one of many things he would have done to influence James. Some of which others have caught / will continue to catch. And some of which probably occurred when the cameras weren’t rolling.

[@kp338]

Thanks! Yeah I think Derren's the best at what he does. If the apple slices were indeed intentionally shaped liked the Opera House, that is truly incredible. So glad he is making it in the US now. Long overdue.

[@Tridentus]

I'm from the UK- it's safe to chew down a small piece of glass it won't cut you. It's not really needed in the trick, it just makes it seem more impressive. However, the bit where he reads James's mind he's actually reading James's face and that's the impressive bit.

[@GoddessFourWinds]

No. James was telling Derren things that he...James...had been programmed to think before he'd even sat down at the table. (If you'd noticed the shape of the apple slices you can tell they mimic what? The Opera House in...Sydney.)

[@darktemps]

PErsonally the apples are just layed out. does not look like anything. Any programming would be done before the show

Watch 4:53 to 4:56. You see Darren lean in and hear then "tink" as he drops the sugar glass on top of the real glass. Also, compare the glass that Darren eats from 4:57, to the "glass" that James eats at 7:17. Darrens' is much more clear, and not as cloudy as James' piece. Darren ate the real glass. James ate sugar glass.

[@wyterabitt2149]

Maybe, as he might not want to take the risk especially in the lawsuit happy US. It's not impossible James didn't know that though. But he is right, you are actually pretty safe if you did swallow such fine glass crunched up. I wouldn't recommended it but it shouldn't be dangerous.

That is some of the things he does, so definitely possible

[@mackrevinack498]

good theory. yea maybe there are a few different things around and all he has to do is try to figure out which one he went for, which is why his questions were mainly what letter it started with

[@ACKaizar]

That is what he does, for instance watch his show Enigma, he always has things placed around the theatre, bars etc that you wouldn't even notice but your brain does and it gives you unconscious thoughts so when you think say, you're picking a colour or number at random you're in fact picking what he has basically already told you through these little things he has dotted around the place. Watch Enigma and you'll know what I mean, that's probably the best show he's ever done, Russian Roulette and The Events are pretty great too.

[@BannanaRamaz]

It’s conditioning. It’s where he trucks your body and mind to doing what he wants! He does it loads and it’s amazing to watch! I’m not sure what it’s called exactly but he done a performance with these medical students and it’s crazy what he does with a nail!

My throat hurts just watching this

[@judebrown2005]

Why did james open the broken light bulb like a Christmas present😂4:22

[@bradenhowell3600]

thought this dude was sean evans for a sec ngl

[@jameskennedy552]

Braden Howell OMG ME TOO I was hoping anyways

[@mugbeans3966]

I think he has to do the bulb and glass trick just to get Corden into another state since it would be difficult to do a trick on a specific person. It was shown during the apocalypse episode audition scene that there are people who are immune/difficult to hypnotize.

[@mojojojo8806]

would have been better if james wrote it down before he guessed, could have just gone along with it for the sake of the bit

[@NeaEmrys]

James could have tattooed it on his butt and it wouldn't have made a difference, believe me, it's Derren Brown we're talking about not some noob.

[@Soldmysoultorocknroll]

Bendydick Cuckatoo I love your username and profile pic lol

[@xxxdylan]

When he pulls the napkin forward, he drops a piece of sugar glass. I even think I can hear it.

[@Bunni_Bunbuns]

Lol I love all the Americans who are saying he swapped it for sugar glass when he didn't even touch it. He's been making people eat glass for ages, he even explains how it works!!

[@myNEONCITY]

Eating glass isn't safe though. Especially not lightbulbs that can contain mercury and other dangerous elements on the inner side of the glass. Chewing real glass can permanently damage the enamel on your teeth and cut the inside of your mouth. If this trick is real than he is incredibly irresponsible for giving tainted glass to people to possibly crack a tooth on, or he slips in a piece of sugar glass at some point and gives that piece to them. My vote is it's fake, most of these mentalist people incorporate these tangible "magic" tricks along with their psychological conditioning tricks.

[@heinyml]

What do you mean he didn't touch it? He literally picks it up himself from the table and places it in James mouth. That is the entire reason he has James eat a piece of apple so that he doesn't realize the sweetness of the sugar glass.

[@emfromthechi]

@@heinyml right, because he wont taste it before eating the apple right? Lmao so dumb. If it was sugar glass he would have known, as he ate it before the apple. So this makes no sense. He gave him the apple so he would chew the glass more naturally and have the glass mix with the apple, creating an applesauce like mix in his mouth. A lot easier to swallow that way for the inexperienced.

[@heinyml]

@@emfromthechi He gave him the apple almost immediately. Why would he have tasted the sugar glass before? You think he was rubbing his tongue around what he thinks is real glass? You only say that it "helps" chew the glass because that's what he tells you to believe. It makes no sense to eat a sweet piece of apple unless he is hiding the taste of the sugar glass

[@emfromthechi]

@@heinyml So when you take a shot of vodka and chase it down with a coke, you dont taste the vodka at all? Your argument is totally illogical. He wouldve tasted sugar if it was sugar glass. Why would he need to cover it up after the fact.

[@BernardtDog]

If you want to know the answer to the question of what James asks at 0:46 , skip 10 seconds right after he finishes his question and then Derren would answer it.

[@randomthings2016]

Wow! TWO LEGENDS in the same room!!! 😍🙌😏👀🤣😱❤️🌈😘 xxx

[@sax8876]

RandomThings! I know a light 💡 and James

[@randomthings2016]

Sax Lmao 💡🤩👍😂🙏🙌🤠 xxx

[@DefeatLust]

I thought I read the fucking title wrong. Derren Brown? No way... I thought this cat had disappeared ... but no... NOO!!! HERE HE IS !!! DERREN BROWN YOUR THE FUCKING MAAAN!!!

[@nirmaleejayasooriya6949]

bring back professor robert winston

[@theomeller7368]

I love how to joke at 1:40 just completely went over the crowd's head

[@NeaEmrys]

They probably didn't know what amenable meant. lol

[@bintiy3196]

Who else came here to see what David Blaine was talking about?

[@maddieshoyo7578]

binti y me lol never thought David Blaine was referring to this about James loving to eat glass😂😂😂

[@bintiy3196]

Yaz Grim ikr😂

[@xXxALeXFuTexBaLxXx]

He uses ‘priming’ really well one of the psychological tricks for those who weren’t sure

[@salemjoynes6748]

I love how every late night host hates Donald trump🙌

[@TheCatBilbo]

Guy is a genius, love his work. If you believe in Psychics, watch his US seance from a show he did some years ago...

[@nerozeroful]

WTF i WAS THINKING MATCHBOX TOO

[@studmalexy]

I was thinking giant black mamba dildo

[@nerozeroful]

studmalexy that was my first thing I thought of too, changed it to match box

[@Harleylover14]

I love Derren Brown! I'm so glad that he's getting more exposure here in the US.

[@anggrekbulan100]

If you travel to Asia, or my country to be specific, eating glass, metal or coconut shell as performance is common. Traditional performance. And there's no such thing as sugar glass lol. People should really travel far. It's easier judging if you dont witness yourself. Sometimes it's not a sin to just enjoy the show without trying to solve the mystery.

[@ReXLR]

Vicki Dewi couldn’t agree more. Except that there is such thing as sugar glass lol. They have bottles entirely made out of sugar; they’re called breakaway bottles and they use them on tv and films as a prop used mostly for fight scenes

[@ConnorEtch]

There is diffinetely a thing called sugar glass, it's used by actors and performers a like, also used as edible wine glasses when you have parties. No clean up required. Every time you see a bottle smashed on screen over someones body, that's more than likely sugar glass.

[@anggrekbulan100]

connor etchells Oh Sorry, you misunderstood. I mean there's no sugar glass used in traditional performance in my country.

[@ConnorEtch]

Vicki Dewi there will most definitely be sugar glass in your country and used by many performers, but yeah traditional it is done with real glass and takes a while to master. Just like with many dangerous performance such as sword swallowing or fire breathing

[@anggrekbulan100]

connor etchells I didnt say there's no sugar glass in my country, I said it wasnt used in traditional performance. Ok??

[@dt089]

Truly the best in the world. I've been a big fan of Derren's for a while and I recently saw his show 'Secret' in NYC last summer and it was absolutely mind-blowing. I still question everything that happened that night, as my brain simply cannot rationalize how he did what he did. I cannot wait until he returns to the States!

[@leagueoflanky]

sugar glass. dissolves in the stomach.

[@ConnorEtch]

Except it wasn't sugar glass

[@rufusgreenleaf2466]

So does real glass.

[@laurenm5575]

he is an absolute national treasure. love from the (anyone who says this is fake, he does shows in the uk and does these experiments to random audience members)
