This is a little of topic, well its a lot of topic but its very good.
If you’ve never seen Derren Brown in action before, I think you will like it.
The way he manipulates peoples minds is truly amazing. Exactly how much of it is rehearsed & includes stooges & props, who knows but its very impressive.
He says he doesn’t read peoples minds, but performs a mixture of magic, psychology, suggestion, showmanship and misdirection.

However you want to label it, his performances amaze and unnerve his audience. It really draws you in and makes you want more!
