Did you notice that when he said he wasn’t wearing an earpiece and asked 2 people to look and check he showed each of them the same ear?

[@sfdntk]

It goes beyond just being a great actor, he also has a phenomenal memory. He's not lying when he says he's not wearing an earpiece, there's nobody feeding him information; for the most part he's rattling off information he memorised just prior to coming out on stage, either before the show or during the interval, something he had to do literally hundreds of nights in a row for this particular show, a different set of "predictions" every night over the entire run. That's an amazing skill, on top of his other abilities. He really is the greatest showman of our generation, his spin on what is, at the end of the day, very common mentalism techniques is just sublime.

I want good things for them and for them to be happy but really the stuff going on in their lives is pretty much the same as mine maybe with exception of the cancer I'm fighting. I feel different now, I feel that I don't have to wear a metaphorical mask when I'm hanging out with friends or bump into someone I know.

What people don't realise is: He isn't trying to convince you what he's doing is real, he's trying to make you see that you will continue to deny that it is real, even when he tells you it isn't real. That as human beings we will always defy information we are given, even when it's already our belief already. No part of this act is real, nor does he claim it is.

[@ashscott6068]

He even says at the start of the show that he was sent to NLP nutcases to "cure" him of his gayness, and realised that NLP was BS. Then he proceeds to pretend to be using NLP, among other such nonsense, for an hour, and people think there's something to it. At least he's more honest about it now than he was when he first got big, and seemed determined to make people think that he was using phychological skills and body language and NLP and subliminal suggestion and all that bullshit

[@lezel4swarts]

People dont understand what he really does

[@VperVendetta1992]

Well the point is not if it's real or not, as he admits it's not. The point is, how is the trick performed? If it's simply actors payed to say what he wants, which is the most likely scenario, that's pretty lame. If not, that would be very interesting.

[@TheDobstopper]

@@w_szon3115 No. Derren Brown is amazing for a lot of reasons, but he doesn't have supernatural insight. (Or any supernatural abilities that other people don't have) What is special about him is he is extremely creative, more so than most other people alive. And I'm not going to tell you I know how he did that trick. But I can think of possible ways to do it. Almost everything you see Derren Brown do, over 90% of the world's population could do it as well if he were to tell them the exact method and help them practice. There is no form of psychology that would allow you to guess or intuit that somebody got bit by a monkey in Gibralter. I realize he does all kinds of real amazing psychological tricks in a lot of his performances, but that was too spot on. My best guess is that came from some sort of pre-show work, possibly well before the show. But I honestly don't know. Don't have a clue. I'm willing to stretch my belief that he could actually have a crazy memory, and that it was a memory trick (like having people fill out a survey when they buy their ticket), though I doubt it. But I'm not at all willing to believe he can look at a person and intuit that they got bit by a monkey in gibralter, or anything else that specific. He would be able to win James Randi's million dollar prize if he had that ability, and winning that would make anybody so notorious; there is no way Derren Brown would turn that down.

It breaks my heart to think of how many stupid people there are in the world and how terribly vulnerable to exploitation they are. I no longer think there is any way to fix it. People are stupid and they just can't see that they are. Please don't be convinced by me. I convinced someone once that they were stupid and it caused them to be humiliated.

Brian Burnett that’s a microphone, you small brain😹😹

Bone conduction

@@romshes77 WTF is bone induction?

[@SleepyCoveASMR]

Absolutely insane! Also I could've sworn the song at 19:20 was from Battlestar, but now I'm unsure Edit: it is in Battlestar! But it's not a song made directly for the show. Metamorphosis One by Philip Glass

Dating Derren must be a nightmare 😂

[@johnking5174]

I think he split up from his boyfriend recently. Sad. I bet his boyfriend never saw him much, as he was always touring.

[@monkstandinglast]

i never actually realised he was gay till today i seen his interview with jonny depp where he said "his partner at home" and then "his (partners) mother sitting down"

The most remarkable brain of our times.

[@dandared6395]

He is so good, loved his shows since 1st show years ago when did the fall asleep answering telephone trick, trick of mind, but how the F he got that telephone number is just insane, random number from a random guy added to a random bus route is just inexplicable to me

[@sfdntk]

If you don't want the trick spoiled, don't read ahead. ... ... ... Any time a mentalist or a magician asks someone to write something down on a piece of paper or a board, you can be 100% certain they're using a gimmicked pen that looks like an ordinary pen but which transmits everything you write to a remote receiver. There are dozens of them available from all sorts of magic suppliers. From there it should be obvious how a lot of Derren's stage magic works.

💜Love it - thank you💜

[@mrsir9616]

Awesome

[@STR4nG3boy]

Must say he is a true genius (doesn't matter if this were "tricks" or not). BU he forgot to do the air horn thing :P

51:06 - Finding Wally or Waldo

[@lipikamitra4521]

Am I the only one thinking about the part where he took out some stuff from Adam's stomach using his fingers.. I still dont know what it was.. 🤔

[@_MaxHeadroom_]

Yeah I'm so confused as to why that happened for no reason and wasn't question after by the audience or by most of this comments section
