Truly incredible. This is the third time I have watched this, and this is the only time I tried to notice a slip. Got me all three times. And honestly, I don't want to know. We all know there is an illusion, but that is what makes it masterful, we can't find it. Well done sir. Well done.

I've worked with quite a few ppl with ABIs - you're amazing and I thank you for catching my attention...but then again I had a premonition about all this. You took it exactly the way I expected - which I didn't expect at first! You never deviated from your centered being. You didn't have to deceive us because you charmed us instead. Bravo!

In my opinion, he used the following method: The inner envelope was empty from the beginning on. Notice how he took the smaller one himself and opned id. He didn't show Natalie the inside of his hands, he had definitely the chance to smuggle this little folded paper inside the envelopre before pretending to pull it out. The paper was written by his assistance for sure. The camera might not have shown, but she must have left shortly throughout the show after the the final decision by the magician (who he was going to pick for his final trick) was made - notice, how the "brain" was "accidentally" missing and he had to pick a person himself - that's because he needed to pick one without relying on fortune, because her look (notice: NOT her name) was described on the paper. As he is good in silent communication, he could hav easily given the information who he was going to pick to his assistance. I bet he also had a backup plan: a second folded paper in his sleeve, where the look of the last lady was NOT described, for the case if she wouldn't aggree to come up to the show. Great trick though, I hope you appreciated my explanation.

Lotta fun. Interesting that people with a TBI sometimes end up doing very well in their pursuit of recovery. A woman I know was severely brain-injured in an accident that affected her speech. She became a PhD in linguistics, an author and a great professor---- she said she never would have gone that direction but for that accident. Surprised the hell out of herself.

Reading the top few posts, I have a few responses. First, someone definitively says that magic is not real. I see it every day all over the world all over the Universe. Magic is very real but hard for humans to see. The problem is that we think we know things and understand things. So as soon as we have an explanation we change our perspective and kill the magic for ourselves. For example, you might think you understand electricity, but I'm sure you don't, because no human really does. Electricity if you really look at it, is magic, so are you for that matter. That said there is another post that said that they saw two king of spades and I assure you there are not. What you see is the king of clubs, also black. If you can freeze frame you should be able to see that. But what matters to me is that this killed the "magic" for you. You created an answer for the question your brain came up with and by creating an answer for the mystery you killed it, and were dissatisfied with the experience. Why do this? Why create something in order to make yourself unhappy? Then in response to this a young one who wants to be a know it all chimes in with a know it all solution. And to that I assure you that the deck is very visible. However if you are trying to call out secret mentalist or magician methods on an open forum to the public your only aim is to gloat and receive praise for being in the know. So shame on you. The first thing a mystery artist learns, as a child, is that there is more value in keeping secrets. Go read your introductory texts again and think about what you have done while you sit in the corner. Otherwise...hopefully some day I can do another one of these as I have learned so much since I did this talk. Thank you all for watching it.

+stuart palm One of the best TED presentations I have seen! And might I say the best message I've seen from a mentalist. Most label their shows as being about the human mind/deception but go very little into it (if at all), and end up just doing magic tricks the whole time lol (still entertaining, but out of place at TED). Bravo.

+Daniel Brown, well, I just went out and focused on enjoying giving my talk. The school was super nice and helpful and did a great job with the video. I went way over time to which I'm happy they just let me keep going. My new material would stay in the 18 minute bracket. I'm amazed it has as many views as it does. It's one thing to do a show or presentation for few hundred people but completely weird to have over a hundred thousand watch it and then be able to see some of their comments. I just try and take everything in stride. All my presentations are better because of it so I think as long as you can keep growing and improving its a great thing to do. Just make it a goal and you'll find yourself there.

stuart palm I coached people at Stanford University (mostly budding entrepreneurs) about how to make their message concicse, clear, and engaging... and sometimes, it was a real struggle. Boring people talking about boring topics... tricky. One thing I've noticed in TED talks that we tended to do as well was give them a prop. There was one guy that was working (as many are) on safe drinking water solutions. Before we even coached him, he stood on the stage with a water bottle in his hand - and it had VERY dirty water in it. "This", he said, "is what most of the world calls drinking water." He did the rest of his pitch (brilliantly) and, at the end, we asked him where he got the water. "Oh, I had an empty water bottle, I just put dirt in it and filled it up with tap water." I think he got $50k in initial funding because of that one prop. Must have been a great experience. I, for one, will be on the lookout for more vids!

I could tell you but I'm not going to. Would ruin all the mystery and fun. There are two main types of people who would post this question on a forum such as this. The first are people who want to make themselves feel better because they can't handle not knowing something, the second are those who want to learn to perform such things. If you're the second type, send me a private message and I would be happy to help guide you. If you're the first, you will probably find many possible solutions to your question and settle on the one that makes you feel best about yourself. (Seems you already did that.) But know that every time you use that feeling of being the one who knows to give yourself a feeling of power, and essentially 'manspalin' your idea, you are robbing others of the mystery and their own solutions. I would recommend finding a different way to express your ego.

thats one way, but not the way he did it lol. he uses his body language and word play to influence the auidences decision, simple lol. for example, if i wanted someone to choose king of spades i might say... imagine a tall big screen in your mind and shade it in, then imagine high up.. at the top keep thin"king", of a card thats right keep thin"king" of a card. then you also make a K gesture with your hands or a spades sign... notice how i say high up... and "shade it in" this suggests to the person that its going to be a black card not a red one..., how do i know the trick is performed like this? because derren brown does it also and i thought of a card whilst watching this and i thought of the same card as the guy lol

***** Is that why the entire audience thought of the King of Spades? Oh, wait, they didn't. Derren Brown wants you to think that's how he does it. It's magic powder. There's no such thing as magic powder, the magician sprinkles some magic powder, and only the stupidest people believe it was actually the magic powder that did it. NLP, or "suggestion" is Derren Brown's magic powder. I don't like the fact that Ben exposed this trick, but he was correct and you are incorrect. Almost every magician owns this trick deck. You can buy it for $5 at any magic store. He didn't even perform it very well. If he used "your" explanation, then he wouldn't need to use playing cards, and even if he used playing cards, he wouldn't even need a big deck of cards, he could've just written the prediction on a piece of paper and told the man to put the paper in his pocket. Even if you say he used the deck of cards for dramatic effect, why on earth would he open the deck himself and spread the cards in that awkward manner, holding them close to his chest? I'll tell you why. Because it's the 2nd most famous trick deck in the world (the most famous being a one-way forcing deck).

Good talk, BUT imho the trichotomy of body, mind and soul is, while understandable, faulty, misleading and ultimately harmful as it facilitates disintegration of the individual. Let me give you an alternate view: 1. Man has no Body distinct from his Soul for that call'd Body is a portion of Soul discern'd by the five Senses, the chief inlets of Soul in this age (W. Blake; F.M. Alexander wrote sth. similar but somewhat more verbose in "constructive conscious control of the individual" (easily found via google)) 2. Following D. Kahneman the part called mind/soul/brain... can be divided into fast/slow thinking or intuition/mentation or subconsciouns/conciousness (Mind those parts depend on one another so a split is merely pedagocical) Hope that helps. If not, please tell me why!
@stuartpalm
@stuartpalm 10 жыл бұрын
This is a model for thinking and of course the body mind and soul do cross over to one another and communicate to one another. I have since this time revised my thinking on the subject and focused more on the conscious and unconscious mind, and the ability to communicate with and through them. The body is part of this experience and in a way the transport for consciousness. While I have experienced the existence of my soul or spirit I am curious if you have or what your belief on the matter is. The mental state is separate from the soul, as the mental state can be damaged while the soul remains intact. What I am not sure how to express is the relationship between the soul and the conscious/unconscious mind. Although I have experienced their differences. Would you please explain further what you mean about this being harmful as it facilitates the disintegration of the individual?
@RekMone
@RekMone 10 жыл бұрын
stuart palm To answer your question I'd first like to try to explain what I understand under an "integrated individual". Such an individual has very few instances of "cognitive-dissonance" in their life, meaning their thoughts (intelectual-appreciation) on average do not conflict with their feelings (physical-appreciation). You could say that such a person is very mellow-mooded most of the time, moves efficiently and gracefully. What I mean with saying that a threefold-division counteracts such a state is that if an individual views themselves as consisting of inherently distinct parts, that individual may come to the conclusion those parts (however many there may be) exist and perform independently. This may have a variety of detrimental effects, some as severe as schizophrenia, while others more subtle like thinking that you have to stabilize your head using your jaw-muscles creating excessive tension and imbalances. F.M. Alexander (originator of the "Alexander-Technique") spoke quite emphatically on this point in aforementioned book, but this is IMO also consistent with buddhist-philosophy, which leads me to your first question concerning the soul. What I believe concerning this subject depends on how the term is defined: If one views it as a handle to address psychological phenomena, I'd think it's the thing which is either on or off meaning it's equivalent to your conscious-mind. If however one thinks of it as an unchangeable substance which resides in a perishable body (a "ghost in a shell") and may transmigrate between existences, we're at the beginning again as then you may view your actions as stemming from either one or the other pole, splitting attention. I personally view the concept "soul" as either redundant or wishful. In my "soul-searching", I've never encountered anything which can't be traced back to prior conditioning thus would be eternal, but have experienced aversive-impulses I restrained or regretted and moments of fatigue, where I couldn't perform as I'd expected, which may help to make sense of the experience of wanting to read but being unable to (information some part works with, stored in some fatigued or lost one and now missing)... Do you think my position plausible or naive (or maybe sth. else entirely)?
@stuartpalm
@stuartpalm 10 жыл бұрын
Thanks, I have not read everything you are mentioning so I am going to have to research a bit and get back to you. I am not familiar with the model of the integrated individual and I am intrigued. We can view ourselves in many ways. As one, as one with everything, as nothing etc... I started telling the three part separation of self when I experienced this dislocation through my surgery and my seizures. What I experienced made me believe without a doubt in my soul or spirit. Through this experience I understand that I can be without a working mind. And while the mind might not be able to correctly communicate, the thinking feeling me inside is able. So there can be a separation between the Id and the body. The mind in this place is part of the body actually. But then I also experienced a third thing, which is like understanding me as me and also feeling as a part of all things. You are not naive, you are searching and learning. Keep on your path, it is a good one. Blessings, Stuart

@RekMone 10 жыл бұрын
stuart palm You're most certainly welcome! I merely reciprocated for you sharing your theory-of-mind in such an entertaining and intelligible way. I'd like to give you some pointers: Patanjali's "Yoga Sutra" is a good place to start (the term "integration" I borrowed from there); William Blake's "Marriage of Heaven and Hell"; the Portion of Henry Clark Warren's "Buddha, The Gospel" labeled "Name and Form"; F. M. Alexander's "Constructive Conscious Control of the Individual"; and Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking fast and slow". Except the last one, all can be easily found for free via Google. Although it's hard to be certain, I suspect the experiences you're describing might be understood as "dissociation" or "depersonalization". I agree with you on that being possible, maybe even likely, but I do think this a pathological state, which we should try to avoid or overcome. Hence my point of a division beeing harmful, as this basically draws one towards multiplicity, disintegration or confusion... Anyway, I'd be glad to hear your further thoughts on that. We're all just learning what it means to be us and discussions can be so much more educational than guided introspection :)

With short brown hair and wearing a white top. The irony was that all of the Asian looking people chosen at random, and therefore probably in the majority in the audience, could speak English better than the woman who looked like a Brit! But you had painted yourself into a corner with the description in the note! Not that it didn't still work! Good show anyway man.

The message the women read was never in the envelope. He was writing the message on his gadget that he keeps looking at the whole presentation. Then printed it somehow.

The gadget is changing the slides. Interesting idea though, but no. And it doesn't really matter. It's entertainment. Keeping the mystery keeps the magic alive. Every time you come up with a possible method a fairy dies. Fairy killer!

my brain doesn't work that way.My argument is that he takes a long time just to change slides.Should be faster so i suspect he his writing something piesce by piece

@@justinsmall8489 Not sure I get your comment about me talking to him... My argument was (again)why does it take so long to change slides?It should have taken him a sec or two. Just seems suspicious. And yes I've seen hundreds of TED talks. Never seen anyone play with their phone like that.

You’re not very bright for someone who challenges his magic tricks. When I said you’re talking to him I am saying the guy who first responded to your post IS THE GUY on the video doing the tricks. Umm, duh.

If I was palming anything, it was my iphone, as I used it to advance the slides. There are many slides they don't show in the video as they focus on me instead. Which is fine. Ironically I don't use any palming in my show!

Yeah, I totally agree. That actually wasn't my intention but I see how it comes off that way. I was truly surprised that he called himself 'Bob' and there was something in the way he said it that made me question whether that was his real name or not, it's common in Hong Kong for people to try and make a game of "fool the magician" and he had that look on his face (which he played out by putting the bill in his pocket). The audience is laughing at my surprise and his deadpan response more than his name. But yeah, that aside, I never want to laugh at my guests, and it wasn't my intention.

A lot of TED talks follow this pattern, unfortunately. The more valuable videos are immediately banned because they do not fall into the politically correct sphere which TED mostly pushes. Disappointing, to say the least.

They have start educate them self from sence they was a baby. And the other giving pain form are soul and spirit pain. You can kill to feel it.

Agressive, as a doctors act, sensitive like i have to do this cause your own best, and hate, i hit you cause i hate you, or love i beat yoiu cause i love you. and like without any reason or cause, i beat you cause you dont recordnize me,
