Would you be willing to point me in the direction of the yes no method? Ive only seen derren browns performance and would preferred and ung....cked version. Pls and TY
Thanks for the comment! The method I use is honestly pure psychology and manipulation, BUT I am aware Peter Turner has a Yes/No effect that doesn't use any special things on the How To Read Minds 2 kit
I usually have an invisible deck for gigs, not my every day carry. Amazingly, I only actually started using it in the last year too! Thank you for your comment!
Thank you! Unfortunately I can't teach the tutorial but I can point you in the right direction? Check out the magician Tobias Dostal and hopefully you'll come across it!
Thank you for the support and feedback! I have one but it decided to stop working on the day, luckily a lot of what was filmed this day doesn't require much audio 😅
This is really good. I'm guessing you've read 'Moonwalking with Einstien'. Is there a chance you can talk about some of the steps/daily training you did to refine your process? Or is it in the book?
I haven't read it actually, but just had a quick look and it's on my list to read now so thank you! Honestly, a lot of friends and family members have commented their concern that my memory isn't great and I've been researching ways to improve it. I read a lot of scripts, listen to a lot of songs, and change my passwords as much as often to random letters and numbers and try to remember them. I find the passwords give me the extra sense of need to remember them because it will be an issue if I can't remember them! Hopefully my memory will improve over time 😅
Hey man, I just recently got into mentalism and performed a few tricks for my nephews wedding recently. Having not practised them I was going in blind and I was amazed at the results I got, and the reactions were incredible and now I’m pretty hooked. I guess that’s the thing with mentalism- in order to practice it you have to perform it. There were people at the wedding that were like - oh do that to me! Do that trick to me ! and I didn’t want to do the same trick twice because I thought it would be too transparent and I don’t have a huge arsenal of tricks so how do you get around, not doing the same trick twice when people ask?
Heya, thanks for the comment! You got it right, going out and performing is honestly the best way to learn! There are lots of ways to get around not performing the same trick twice. The easy and expensive option is to buy more books or tricks to do with mentalism. The cheaper, more creative and harder way is to not learn more tricks, but to present them differently. You'll learn that most tricks, are the same method in some way, so take what you already know and have a different speech or presentation to it! If someone is asking to do the same trick you have just done, and they have seen you do, a way to get through this is by saying, "I actually think you'll do a lot better with something else, would you like to try?" And then perform a different trick or the same, just presented different like said before. Hope that helps ☺️
@@chasingtheillusion52 yeah that does help, luckily, I had a few packs of cards and did some other tricks. They work really well together, and once you've planted the seed that you can "mind read" you can get away with easier things with marked deck for example. I also added a great kicker to a mentalism 'think of a card" trick (not sure whats its called) with an invisible deck, revealing the original card he thought of - he was mind blown - "I'll be thinking of that all night now" I also heard from another magician "once a trick, twice a lesson" and I've used that a few times. If you have any other one liners like that then please share - also could be a good idea for a video if you fancied a deeper dive into it? It's very powerful stuff and I'm enjoying it a lot. Your channel is criminally undersubscribed, although I appreciate the small audience, makes it feel a bit special.
Hello sir, I am a regular viewer of your RU-vid Channel. Your content is really amazing, but your channel has an SEO problem so, you are not getting more views, likes, comments

I transfered stufff for eye(from right dominant going to left dominant) and it worked! I look at something far away and i closed my right eye i could see it, closed my left eye i couldn't!(a bar was blocking it.) This requires practice or am i left eye dominant now?
Hey could you make a video about changing the right eye dominant to left eye dominant I need to become left eye dominant, I'm sick. My tear duct is weak and small
Oh interesting, and I'm sorry to hear that! I'll be honest, I have no idea how to do it with eyes. If I was to attempt this, it would also have to be in person too
Was this written by AI? You'll find a lot of his stuff is just traditional magic. And some of his tricks are pretty much outright cheating. Having said that, yeah, the guy is a fantastic showman, illusionist, magician etc. His shows did change after the first few and he took a different approach and it became more serious-ish. Here's one for you. When he was on Richard and Judy he asked Judy to think of a letter. The envelope had carbon copy paper inside, and after Judy said the letter A he had a nib in his thumb that he used to write the letter A through the envelope. Go watch it. I used to do a trick where I guessed a person's card from a deck, and they were convinced I was reading micro-expressions, but I already knew the card, it was the patter and bs I was telling that made it look "real." We think we're such clever animals.
No AI used! I was trying not to go into too much detail on how he does his tricks, it's not for me to say butttttt... Derren is a master of covering up what he is actually doing, even sometimes telling you how he does it, when in fact that isn't at all how it was done (if that makes any sense). I think I've seen that clip! The thing I LOVE about mentalism, and one of the main reasons why I lean towards that, not magic, is because most people believe that there is a science behind it. And there is to some degree, but you can pull off a lot with generic tricks disguised as body language etc. Thanks for the comment!
"And some of his tricks are pretty much outright cheating." DB claims not use any stooges or as you put it, "cheats". If he did, lawsuits will be landing on his doorstep.
@@harvinderrishiraj5901 In my opinion, I don't think stooges are a problem, I don't see much difference between lying that the people in use aren't stooges compared to lying about making a coin disappear. It's all deceptive, and if people find it interesting and entertaining then what's the problem? Again, just my opinion 😂
@chasingtheillusion52 Stooges aren't an issue if declared. With Derren, he's explicitly outlined non are used. I've been to 2 of his live shows in the mid 2000s.
Thanks for the comment! Honestly not doing this for any type of monetisation, in fact, I have lost money making this series. If you do watch the other episodes, you will see, for the most part, that it is genuine
That was really intresting I really enjoyed that :) I have had family members that have had incidents with ghosts so I'm quite interested in this sort of stuff. I had something happen to when I was very young but I don't think I can really blame it on paranormal activities as I very vaguely remember it.
Thank you for your support as always!! The exact same happend to me with my family so I totally understand what you mean. Being young does factor in I think, maybe it's because we are better at imagining at that age or (maybe) children are more susceptable to the paranormal?
That's a really beautiful way of looking at it! Perception really does factor in on if people believe or not, it's something we discuss in later episodes ☺️
@chasingtheillusion52 Thank you for your response. I look forward to more of your content. I find magic and mystery so fascinating (the positive). I can just never find it. Any time something magical happens, it gets debunked really fast. The fan was moving it, glare of my glasses, etc. I guess if I had an experience, it would be solid proof that there is something greater. But it's never there and can get really discouraging sometimes. So I don't let myself get to far into it anymore
I am exactly the same! In this episode I had to bite my tongue and not come up with ideas on how it was possible. Because JUST IMAGINE if all the ideas and theories we come up with are all wrong and the simple answer of "magic" or "ghosts" is the actual answer? Just allowing myself throughout the episode and series to pretend it's real until I have proof really helped me understand it a little better
i used a paperclip to fix it (stopping from retracting) and the paperclip was attached to an invisible or elastic thread which I can pull to release the ... thingie 😂
