5 the book is red (people subconsciously choose the colour), he reinforces the choice asking about left- or right-handedness 6. "pop your right hand.." 7. 3:03 he actually bends the book in the right place 8 when flipping through the pages Derren grabs his hand and probably saying "anywhere you LIKE" suggests that he should stop there 9 he made sure the word was there in the passage the man was reading 10" the word jumps out" Probably there are more clues :)
lots of subliminal suggestions 1 covers of the science fiction books were brighter than the classical ones, 2 bottle with a cork which is easily associated with POP, he puts it on TOP 3at 2:09 Derren asks "which row would you like the top or the bottom and which one do you want to continue with" - quite an ambiguous question when the man chooses Derren devcides himself to get rid of the top row 4 at 2:30 he takes the red one and than rearranges the books putting the one in the middle
I can only imagine the year that this involved getting ready / add to that the best location and author ..... movie making is very much the same. Great job!!
Derren makes a point of referencing the number 80. he talks about the publishing date being in the mid-80s, then later the number of pages being 280. unfortunately, you can't see the page number in the video, but my guess is that it's in the mid-80s.
Trust me, its an old method but it is a trick, plus this cant be psychology of any kind. It involves slightly erasing all the numbers other than the one needed.
when darren opens the book he makes sure to stretch so it feels naturally to stop flipping to the pages, he knew already that there was a pop word he always uses swords to persuade the pop, top, etc
