In an alternate universe this is probably considered one of the darkest moments in tv history and ofcom probably launched an inquiry after numerous complaints only thing wrong with the video is none of the camera crew or possible audience screamed or said something like "holy shit someone call an ambulance" when Derren brown pulled the trigger
There actually weren't any camera crew in the room during the stunt, they all left before the stunt as it's seen on the full episode meaning the only person who could say anything would've been the singular audience member
@@emrebilal Yeah, it was filmed on Remote control cameras and the physical camera crew left after the participant chose a Live round from a pack of bullets when the Armourer demonstrated.
Yeah before he started playing the cameraman left the set downstairs, the only person who was there was the one who Darren chose to help him by placing the bullet into a revolver chamber and placing the custom shield over the chamber, Darren then asked them to sit behind a bulletproof screen.
The “Owen Hart” cadence, as it’s known in wrestling due to Jim Ross’ coverage of Owen Hart’s fatal fall at Over The Edge 1999 (which happened off camera during a video package).
October 5th 2003: Channel 4 displays a temporary fault screen during the broadcast of an episode of Derren Brown, after a stunt went wrong live on air. The episode, which featured Brown playing the infamous game of Russian Roulette, was being broadcast on a 15 minute time delay, which meant that Channel 4 had time to cut away from the feed before the incident was shown. The feed later switched to a rerun of Mind Control, before it was announced that Brown had died as a result of the freak accident.
This was one of my favourites on your TikTok, nice to see it in live action, very good to how it would have played out In an alternate universe this one of the most notable events in TV history, for all the wrong reasons
Derren Brown:*shoot himself* Channel 4 annoucer: well um that wasn't supposed to happen *Senfield plays* Stay with us on 4 we hope to get an update as soon as possible
did the real derren brown actually have a plan b prepared in the event of something like this happening? Also i wonder if channel 4 actually had a pre recorded announcement of his death that was set to play if the stunt went wrong
Very Shortly After This Clip Cut Off, They Fell Off Air Due To Them Being In A Rush Preparing The Show, Although It Wasn’t For Long, Some Of The Programmes That Was Supposed To Air On C4 That Evening Got Moved To E4
First of all, yes it made me jump at 0:07! This (not the incident, but how you’ve produced this mock), is so perfectly done! I remember watching this live when it actually happened and thought, yes he is an illusionist and knows what he is doing, but one moment or lapse of concentration and this COULD go wrong. I reckon the contingency for what could have happened if it had gone wrong has been brilliantly replicated here! For something like this, even in 2004, there must have been a momentarily delay in the live broadcast to allow them to cut away if needed. I don’t know if you accept requests, but a similar thing to this is when Magician Paul Daniels performed his Iron Maiden stunt, would be interesting to see (in MocksEAS video form) that stunt, in the scenario it had gone wrong. Thanks again for your AMAZING uploads, they’re great! 😊
Hi Dan, Thank you for the kind word. I also remember watching this too. I remember watching it with my mum as well and that’s when I started watching him. I have heard of the Paul Daniel’s stunt before. I might do something on that soon
@@mockstv9739Thanks for your response! Derren Brown isn’t to everyone’s taste, but there is just something captivating about him performing the stunts. Thank goodness this didn’t go wrong, but this really is what Channel 4 hopefully had as a back up contingency for, if something didn’t go according to plan. Regarding the Paul Daniels stunt, here is the clip of the illusion and fake “gone wrong” in question - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-90GfWDK9q5k.htmlsi=D3SKOAN_3STeev4U Loving your uploads as I say, please keep up the good work! Excited to see what scenarios you have for us next! 😊
If this actually happened, it would make Nipplegate look like child's play in the eyes of the easily offended. By that point, no broadcaster in the world is safe 💀
EAS Scenario request: The London Underground Derailments - 2003: We all know that the Underground was rocked by three derailments at Chancery Lane, Hammersmith and Camden Town Stations in January & October that year respectively. But what if they all happened on the same day? Please consider this Scenario!
I remember watching this derren brown thing with my uncle when I was like 5 because my uncle was a big fan of derren brown (not sure if he still is because i havent seen him in like 4 years), and obviously I was only little so I had absolutely no idea what was going on, Basically i was sleeping round my auntie and uncle's house the night it was on I couldn't sleep so my uncle asked if i wanted to sit downstairs with him and watch tv and my auntie was at work the night, and now when I watch it I think why on earth did I agree to watch this with my uncle! But tbf even if something like this did happen on the show, I'd still have no clue and just think meh!
@@mockstv9739It's a very good AI Terzzabot. Usually these Emergency End of the World Mocks are too depressing for me, but I actually watched this at the time.
LORE TIME 9:08pm: Jeez did Derren Brown actually shoot himself while playing Russian Roulette? Things are gonna be hell now. Around 1 minute later 9:09pm: It seems like they’re playing an episode of Mind Control. I hope Derren Brown is okay though. 5 minutes later (I think) 9:14pm: Derren Brown DIED!?!?!? Of course things didn’t even go well for Derren Brown ever since he shot himself during Russian Roulette.
holy fuck ue actually shot himself. anyone know if he made it through a recovery or- I dont think Darren Brown made it Fuck sake he actually fuckin died a plan? (Ik this is fake just imagine that this comment was from if this was real)
It’s all part of the plan. He was hooked up to a malfunctioning life support system, on his own request before recording the stunt, that is designed to flatline and “kill” him. He’ll be back before you know it.
