There are so many people who are clueless about the depth of Derren's talents.. I've personally not seen anyone coming close to the degree of difficulty of what Derren Brown does. And he is so versatile as well. Seriously one of the most brilliant minds of our era.

@marcp5099 Год назад

It is now so many years ago i forget - i tried to get him to come and perform for my company party. Live just a few miles away from where he he lived in Bristol. We are talking WAY before any TV. Such a shame i never finalized it. I saw him so may time in the early years. A master. I had this video and was blown away by the dexterity. Personally i most enjoyed his mentalism work when it was done on others. But when he told your your pin code.... or drew something randomly you could not have seen in a tiny room. Epic. He and Tim Minchen remain 2 of my very few heroes....

@DW-lx9wt Год назад

we were blessed here in the UK to have grown up with this guy around. its just a shame he hasnt quite got the same level of recognition in america, because he really deserves it. he's fantastic to watch on TV but really excels at his live shows.

@kurtlee3198 Год назад

yeah i've been to see him twice, even got a dirty look thrown at me and my wife once when we walked in late, the mans amazing

@egroegartfart Год назад

I just started the video so I don't know if you're going to cover it or not. And yes, it's unfortunate that he has never become super popular in the U.S. but one trick he did really ruined his reputation here. I was watching it live when it happened. He was in New Jersey and the trick was Russian roulette with a real gun and bullets. But during the show so many people thought it was real. Lol. And they all called the police. And the police rushed there and then subsequently it was revealed that it was blanks used. People were really mad that they were tricked. Not sure why they expected him to really use real bullets but somehow people were pissed that they were filled and that he wasn't using real bullets. And then the second thing why he isn't popular here is that he was exposed like criss angel was for hiring actors. Which yes he has done many times and it doesn't really bother me so much but I would much rather see just random people in the trick. But the tricks he was doing would never have worked with random people. They had to be in on the trick for it to work. So there's that too. But I really have no problem with Darren. I like him and he's definitely entertaining. But he's definitely done a few things like the Russian roulette and hiring actors that doesn't sit well with a lot of people. So those are really the main factors in him not being so popular here. But I think he's great. He's done some really cool things.

@Potts1966 Год назад

@@egroegartfart Agreed. He's done some amazing TV work, but there were a few dodgy ones. The Russian Roulette one wasn't good and the hypnotism one where you were not supposed to be able to stand up was another, but he was doing things that had never been seen on TV before, so you can't expect it to be great every time. I did see him live and it was hands down the most stressful experience I've ever had in a theatre. Even though I know him picking the seat numbers from a tombola was a force and stooges had to have been used, but when he was mixing the tombola to pick out a random seat number, I was so stressed in case he picked my seat that I vowed never to see him live again, it was just too much for me to be comfortable with :)

@egroegartfart Год назад

@@Potts1966 thanks Bob. That is so awesome that you got to see him perform live. I would love to see him one day. I didn't mean for it to sound like I don't think his shows are great. They absolutely are great. He's very creative and such a performer. I've been a student of magic for many years and I can tell when something seems up or sketchy or maybe if the magician is using stooges. I'm usually pretty good at catching it. And I really don't mind most of the time. I'm watching to be entertained. And I don't think there's any law that says as an entertainer that you have to disclose how your trick was done or even who your assistants are. It's entertainment. But most people have absolutely no idea how magic is done and when they find out a magician they watch has been exposed for fake tricks or using stooges they actually get butt hurt. So where I don't really have a big problem with it, a lot of people do. Maybe because they feel like they've been tricked on top of being tricked. Lol. They get tricked by the magic act and then find out they've also been tricked into thinking the people were not random or volunteers but we're actually in on it. And a lot of people don't understand that. Maybe that's a personal decision magician's make whether they will use stooges or not. I know that if I were a magician I would not use them. Just not how I roll. Lol. But magicians do. I think there's situations where it's not acceptable to use stooges. And situations where it is acceptable I guess. But I have always liked Darren. And would love to see him one day. I talk way too much. Lol. Sorry . Have a good day bob.

@Potts1966 Год назад

@@egroegartfart Hey Benji. I didn't think you thought his shows weren't great. He's pushing the limits of what can be done on TV so he can't get it perfect every time. Live he is brilliant and if you ever see him live I defy you not to be stressed when he's slowly turning the tombola that has every seat in the house on a separate piece of paper ready to pick a "random" seat. You know it won't be you, but it maybe could be! And then he's telling the person in that seat intimate secrets about themselves. He does it so well. The whole show was really good, but so stressful. Personally I love to know how magic is done, what's the secret? What sleight of hand or mechanism is involved. I've seen Penn and Teller live a few times and it's always a great show, enhanced for me by knowing the skill involved in the deception for their illusions that I know the secret of and being mystified, trying to work out the illusions that I can't figure out. Don't worry about talking too much, I do too lol.

@loreleimonn3220 Год назад

Derren Brown is my favorite performer. The way he has such excellent control over the audience through an entire show is something I’ve spent hours studying and learning from, he’s incredible. I got to see him perform in NYC, and it was everything I hoped it would be and more.

@momshadalvee Год назад

Derren is in London and performs card to box with hypnotism, it will make you want to stop doing card magic because his effect is absolutely unreal. 1 card 1 box. The spectator is hypnotized and the spectator themselves takes the card out of the box and places it underneath and forgets about it. Spectator is then amazed how the card could have gone under the box!

@productofapathy Год назад

Been waiting for this one. Derren brown isn't the first magician to inspire me but he is the first one to show me how impressive the dark arts can be without being corny or cheesy. As close to supernatural as possible. Been watching this guy for 20 years and he still amazes me.

@user-vo4wc2jz8g Год назад

Derren is awesome, he's always trying new things and social experiments. So versatile , I loved the dark feel of 'Svengali' but also the way he exposed the techniques used by faith healers in 'Miracles for Sale' 🙌

Derren Brown has been huge here in the UK for a long, long time. His specials that surround mentalism are incredible. The zombie apocalypse experiment is insane.

Derren's stuff is great. He made Simon Pegg say his favourite Xmas present ever was a bike. In a post interview he said he knew it wasn't but felt compelled to say it was!

@goldcd Год назад

Saw him live and my wife volunteered me for the stage (I swear I didn't want to - on stage, not go) Few people on stage, lots of shuffling of stuff - then some tasks and then a long finale of predictions rising to crescendo. Bit that stuck with me the was the disjoint between the experience of us on the stage and the audience watching us. We were nervously trying not to screw up - complete simple tasks, follow clear instructions, answer simple questions - and on one set of confirmations, the audience went wild. Just as he asked, I suddenly realized what was going to happen. I had an answer to hand as easy as giving my name when asked - and there's a microsecond where you realise you could destroy it all by saying something else, but with the question in the air, an audience infront of you, music swelling and and no reason to want to spoil it - even if you could think find something else to say - you comply - and everyone is happy.

@stallion2907 Год назад

Derren Brown's patter is perfection. So many magicians blow through it. Every single word choice, inflection, body movement Derren does means something. You can't tell if you're being tricked mentally or by sleight of hand. It's so tough to follow everything. You feel *compelled* to do what he suggests, even if your gut is screaming not to. Love this man.

@stallion2907 Год назад

Jay Sankey also follows this slowed down patter technique. He's extremely articulate with his words and with his hands.

@twistedcoasters1533 Год назад

I was lucky enough to watch his latest show ‘showman’ last year. My mind way absolutely blown and I still think about it all the time. He’s still performing in London and I encourage everyone who can to go and watch. Everything about that show is perfectly crafted and beautifully executed, with humor as well as some creepy, even scary moments. The atmosphere in the theater is so mysterious too.

@nickphipp1949 Год назад

I saw Showman live last year. I'm a massive fan of all things 'long con', pretty good at identifying set-ups, method, distractions, mind games, influence etc. and was 90% with him for the first two hours. Then (without giving anything away) he absolutely robbed me and 99% of the audience. Astonishing! 🤯😲😦

@JUSTcauseTWO1 Год назад

He is also a fantastic artist. We have an old painting by him of Bertrand Russell. It has the most piercing orange eyes and used to terrify me as a kid. Now it's one of my favourite artworks

Had the privilege of seeing this man live during his miracle tour. Nothing more outstanding than someone fully explaining what they are going to do and how they are going to do it. And then proceeding to manage to perform a ‘mind trick’ on at least 50 percent of audience in such a wonderful way. And he seems to be such a gentle and genuine soul

Love your story about how Derren influenced your magic. Thanks for doing this! I saw him live on stage in the UK and was called up for one of his effects. As an amateur magician who has seen EVERYTHING he has done 😅 - it was fun an a peak into how he accomplishes some of the stage effects. His books on happiness and audio series about the day to day processes our brains is to function is great too.

@spiritusinfinitus Год назад

Haha! I remember that TDPB VHS tape back when to order it you had to first answer a question that only magicians would know. Still one of my favourties. Them's was the days when he had a less reflective head.. Back when his forum was full of rumours of Derren wearing sock garters. Little did everyone know how much truth there was in his "we don't have a queen here" gag!! It was a simpler time back then! His early TV specials were something else. Groundbreaking performer!

@TheGoldburger Год назад

Hey Chris, great video and a testament to the genius of Derren. I live in the UK and saw him live last October and it was a joy to watch him perform in the flesh. I don't know if you know but Andy Nyman, an extremely accomplished and well respected magician in his own right, is Derren's writing partner. They've collaborated on so many of his live shows, TV specials and appearances etc. Andy really is easily at least 50% of what you see with Derren. Andy is a friend of mine and it would be great if you could make a video about him as a magician and his contributions towards the Derren Brown we see and love. Andy is a very lovable guy also and I had the pleasure of working with him on Ghost Stories the film. An adaptation of his successful stage play of the same name. I've been an avid follower of yours for many years now and I look forward to seeing what content you bring out in the future! All the best.

@TheDibule Год назад

Derren is just excellent. His mentalism acts are insane, he mixes magic tricks (which he later ‘explains’ by saying he influenced people), hypnotism (when he really influences people), so smoothly, so perfectly that the audience never knows where reality ends and where fiction begins. Amazing acts guaranteed every time with him! Thanks for this video!

Derren Brown is actually a pretty well known name here in Sweden. But here he is most known for his mentalist acts and debunking of psychic mediums.

He's just a fantastic person all round.

@KarstenJohansson Год назад

I saw this video as more of a bootleg many years ago. Nice to see it so un-blurry! I do a lot of memdeck work (a la Juan Tamariz) but I use Derren's method of card memorization, which I think is superior to just about any other method out there. He didn't invent it per se, but he blended two memdeck methods so you can recall card and location in either direction (name a card, know the direction, or name a number and know what card is there) with exactly the same level of ease. It's strange because of all the TV shows he did post Y2K, I've only seen him do a memdeck trick one time, and it was super-subtle. PS: His version of Smoke with Stephen Fry is what he called the best-case scenario, so when you watch it, it seems *way* more impossible than the version in this video. If you never learn to do a trick or effect from Derren Brown, learn his ability to use patter to steer you clear away from the method. Most people don't realize most of the time he's explaining how to do a trick, it's not how he did it, even though the explanation could work just as well. When he doesn't do that, you get an unexpected encore trick that he "forgets how its done" but was completely managed through the part of the trick he did explain. That's a signature of his... maybe Easter Eggs for magicians, because even the best magicians and mentalists out there are watching for his every move.

Derren Brown is just awe inspiring. I have followed his career since 2000 (Mind Control) and have had the pleasure of seeing a few of his live shows. And, yes, his books are wonderful..... lets face it he is just a splendid human being .

I just saw him a month ago here in London for Showman. My 2nd time seeing him. Truly amazing and one of my favourite performers

Absolutely love Derren, Zamiel’s rose is my favourite card trick of all time but Smoke is a close second. I have his two old books, Pure Effect and Absolute Magic signed by him, some of my most prized possessions

Would absolutely love to see more Darren Brown commentaties on this channel. Seems like he's not nearly as famous in the states as he deserves to be. All of his specials are fantastic as well.

He’s incredible! I’ve seen him live a few times and every time is gets better

Been a fan Derren for years, and remember most of those routines from a low res video I managed to get back in the day. I've seen him with one of his stage shows and it's incredible, it's not sleight of hand and sleight of mind, so clever.

Saw Derren live in June, such an amazing showman. Absolutely mind blowing

A delight to revisit this! I wish I had known of your love of this (and of puzzles!) when I briefly met you in New York! Really enjoy your videos.

Derren is incredible I’ve seen his live shows a few times his showman ship is second to none his mentalism act is literally mind blowing even for magicians

@ronpetersen2317 Год назад

Derren is one of the few magicians that completely blew my mind. I was not really up on mentalist magic so it was new to me. He so could be a legit supervillain if he wanted to be.

I was fortunate enough to see him live in Showman recently and he absolutely blew my mind. The whole show was incredible, but the finale - oh boy. Yes please to more Derren Brown reactions!

@twistedcoasters1533 Год назад

Yeah showman is amazing and I’ve no idea how he did some of the stuff

Around 20:15 when you say, "That move at the end," are you talking about the move at the end, or the move at the end-end? 😉 That was so much fun to watch. The whole upload, I mean. I love watching someone who's watching something that they are completely passionate about. Your face through that entire video was a damn delight, Chris. Thanks for sharing!

I love Derren Brown! He really helped me understand the idea of slowing down and being natural in very unnatural moments, how to not run so that people don't chase you.

@DarkStarStudios Год назад

I saw Derren live in my home town about 12 years ago, cost about £25 a ticket, in Manhattan 3 years ago to buy a ‘ can I see him tomorrow’ ticket it was about $300 . He deserves all the adulation, the guy is devoted to his craft and makes it look effortless.

So nice to see you having enormous joy in magic again!

@danielrosamond7838 Год назад

Was lucky enough to see him live here in the UK a few years ago. Absolutely brilliant showman/magician

I've always loved Brown's ability to get you to trust him for ANYTHING, even as you know you're going to be deceived and how full of shit he can be. You almost feel guilty putting your guard up around him. He's also maybe my favorite magician ever. And I think he indirectly changed my life. In one of his specials (that I can't remember, nor do I remember the context at the moment), he paraphrases a line from David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest: "You'll become far less concerned with what others think about you when you realise how little they do." (something like that.) For most of my life, I was probably far too self-consious and felt like I was probably worse in social interactions than I ever actually was. Once I heard that line, and it just always lingered with me, it became kind of an unsaid mantra to stop thinking about what your every move is and just go, because you're not going to be the center-point of everyone's experiences because you're already trying not to be. And if you are? It's not going to be for anything bad, either, because you had a good time or made a good impression. For many years, I think everyone would describe me as an introvert, and my hobbies are still more solo stuff. I just did a social media poll and now 80% describe me as an extrovert. At some point, I got less concerned with concern and more joyful having joy. If I didn't watch Derren, I don't get that mindset.
