Plot twist: This guy has been jailed 27 times for stealing TVs.

People underestimate the skill, work and time behind these tricks. It is not something you do instantaneously without prior knowledge, experience and preparation - as Derren has pointed out a couple of times.

Some very obvious visual clues... 3:41 the two "employees" chasing him down are wearing light coloured shirts, then a mere 2 seconds later, they are wearing grey (ok still kind of light coloured) and BLACK shirts. One more for you who still believe. 3:38 the balding guy in the grey shirt is running beside the 'n-genius' store with no one running ahead of him, then later at 3:40, he is running by the store again, with another man running ahead of him. Still believe it is true?

Later, the balding guy is still wearing the grey shirt, but the other guy that was running ahead of him at 3:41 is now wearing a black shirt. 3:38 the balding guy is running and is infront of the n-genius store, no one running ahead of him. 3:41 he is still running infront of the n-genius store and there is another man running infront of him.

different lense filters / effects ? i think this guy has a point. the point derren brown makes is that with a lot of planning you can do these things using psychological techniques. thats the whole point he does things like this and condemns 'psychics' who give people false hope for money.

Every single time I watch a single Derren Brown video, it always turns into a marathon. Thank you for sharing your talents with the world. Also, I think my favorite video of yours I've seen is the paying with paper video. If you kept that jewellery, you must wonder how deeply in trouble that sales clerk got.

People saying it's fake haven't probably experienced mirroring. I noticed this effect in school with my deskmate. Quite often I would find myself doing the same thing as him, leaning back or forward, looking through my bag for no reason etc. So mirroring definitely is a thing. The rest was just hypnosis.

A culture and indivuduals that inundates itself with mindless distractions can no longer even recognize those hidden realities that govern their lives and we wonder why our future seems to be in peril.

From a guy who only tried it a few times, this actually seems to works to some extent. Who else does Cold war sleeper agent techniques? So interesting! Love your work Derren!

Pacing and Leading

I've done this at school before, for fun. As you walk down the hallway, copy every movement they make. Hand movement, stepping, breathing, head turning. Fun.

It's funny how Yawning is so infectious. I remember seeing the early 60's film Tom Thumb starring Russ Tamblyn, .. there is an animated section featuring a Yawning Chinese figure, .. It managed to get my mum, dad, brothers and sisters all Yawning. That scene is probably here on youtube.. watch it and try not to yawn :-)

omg! im so gonna try this

DARE for all new people who think its staged, apply for Trick or Threat series of Darren. :D

Knowing Derren, I do actually believe this is real. Plus the mirroring thing is something I've thought about before. When I've been walking with friends, I try to walk at the same pace as them without them noticing and then whenever I speed up or slow down or change my steps, sometimes they copy me without noticing.

Of course mirroring works. Yawning and laughing are two excellent examples. (Or maybe that's something else...)

i love how they clearly saw him walk in and steal a tv, chase him then politely say, "save you got a receipt for that" lol.

this is ridiculous

This guy is awesome

This would be so hard to do now with people glued to their Iphones

He is now your sleeve

Wake Up You Sleepers, you know that song right

Anyone else think it was the “my name is Jeff” meme from the thumbnail?

btw after I started reading about body language I started to understand some of the things Derren are doing

Finally i understands

This is very impressive, but wasn't hypnosis that really made him steal that tv, and not the mirror act? From what I understand, the mirror act was more of a thing Derren did to see how suggestible the guy was.

It always makes me laugh how people instantly dismiss it as fake or staged, the brain is a wonderful thing and can easily be manipulated if you know the right techniques. Whats next people saying basic hypnotism is completely fake? Oh dear

Yeah right....

I was enjoying Derren Brown's stuff until now. This can't be real. As if anyone would steal a TV just because they subconciously started copying someones actions for a few minutes. When Derren went up to him and told him what to do, why didn't he think it was strange or something? He wasn't really hypnotized just because he saw Derren yawning... even if he did start to feel a little tired, this is obviously bullshit.

Everyone is going yo try this now

There is no way you can do that!!

I visited Istanbul months ago and I couldn't sleep at night in the hostel because of noise. So I decided to go outside in early morning and then about 15 minutes later police wanted to stop me in a dark street, I tried to walk away because I thought they were fake cops, and then they "captured me" and we had an argument. Anyway the police searched me and said that "There is a thief in this area who dress like you",, and an older man who helped to solve the argument between the police and me said the same "There is a thief in this area who dress like you". - I'm still wondering about that event and Deren's videos. Because I'm politically persecuted Hungarian and "hypnosis/ mind control" is a way how character assaination, chaos etc can be done. It can be used to steal, borrow, etc. and with drug they can do more harm to their crime victim, even rape etc sex crimes. - But I personally saw a guy in France who looked just like me, and in Malaysia a local said me "How fast you are?! I just saw you there outside minutes ago.." and it wasn't me. - And it's not uncommon to be looked similar, once even my ex-girlfriend and her mother saw a guy who looked just like me. - Also in Istanbul when I was waiting to the return flight at airport a couple of women were talking angry to each other like they addressed it to someone else, and sometimes they looked me in a meaning eyes. And 1 of them even looked me with so angry eyes while I walked away in the crowd next to her in Budapest airport after we arrived. You know times like this try to say; "I'm sorry have we met before?" or "Do I know you?", and answer can be........ - Not a good idea to believe in coincidences all the time, lol but sure Deren would use both a duplicate and hypnosis to make bigger trick.

@norbertkimar4698

But those women were talking like their subject was about a breaking up relation. And only strange thing was that they talked and looked me like I and 1 of them was the subject. It didn't look like staged, prank etc, but never know maybe it was a coincident or I was close enough to angry females as a "you men". And as I said after we landed 1 of them was looking me with angry eyes like she knew me and saying "How could you". - And another interesting thing was about the flight, I suddenly fall asleep even before take off and I woke up in the air way later somewhere in middle of flight, and I felt my body was fresh and nothing like I was sleeping, and nothing like my body would be starting to wake up. Many times I was sleeping on airplanes but this was different. When I woke up I just said myself "What happened, was I sleeping? and how long? and why is my body that fresh?".. Anyway thanks Deren for your videos,

I tried this but after I told the person the trigger he called the cops...

So many people say fake :-P. This isn't fake he's just very good at what he does. Not everything on the internet is fake! Lol

I would love this - if he could do whatever to make me lose weight n reach my target goal lol

The guy in the beanie looks like tony stark😂 (iron man)

he probably cut the video where he orders more tea, i mean whats so interesting about ordering more tea?

is it bad that i actually done this with a classmate accidentally? not tell them to do anything, just sorta did the same thing, then they were copying my actions. the thing is at the time i didnt even know that it was happening. they were sitting right beside me during class and i just crossed my ankles. then they copied. then i sat forward with my elbows on my knees. they did the exact same thing. it was weird.

Derren never used stooges or actors. Ive been to see him live and was called up on stage for the Stevgali tour. I was hypnotised for 50 minutes, at his beckoned call, and he even made me put a needle through my hand, with no pain or blood. There are no actors, and it isnt supernatural, its just incredibly skilled psychology, misdirection, and suggestion.

Ragnar Lodbrok what you have to understand is that derren has dedicated his life to this, so it isnt surprising. i was extremely skeptical when i went along, with the typical "he wont fool me" attitude, but even in his books Derren says its those sorts of people who can be the easiest to manipulate. I thoroughly recommend his book 'Tricks of the Mind" as he tells you exactly how hypnotism works, and other stuff that he does.

The man being mirrored in the coffee shop is not good enough at acting to make this seem real. He seems like he just doesn't know what to do with his hands and has a sort of neutral ''I don't really know what I'm doing here'' look about his body language that just screams 'fake', especially when he's sitting at the coffee shop table.

How nice of Derren to do freaky shit to people he never asked for permission. Yeah, I know, if he`d ask, it would be pointless, but it is still quite a mean thing to do.

love derren, but its very hard to believe that the man was copying derren without realizing it. it looks like after seeing that derren is copying him, the man copies derren on purpose as a joke or for fun.

To do what? To tell someone that he should sit in front of you in a cafe and imitate your actions? Nothing more was done. Derren himself said, he uses suggestion, misdirection and showmanship...

Woah how does that work

I don't think this is acting. So how is something so shocking possible? Well, keep in mind that Derren spent quite a long time at this coffee shop and tried this with many people before finding someone who would mirror him. Derren always carefully selects his subjects because this kind of suggestion does not work on everyone. He has to go through many potential "victims" before finding one who will respond the way he wants. I've noticed that people who tend to be the most suggestible are most often young men with friendly, open attitudes (though of course, not always). Derren even mentions that this is the basic principle behind his success in the video "The System." Do anything enough times and chances are you will have a successful outcome at least once. So if you are good at this sort of thing and try it on enough people, chances are you will find at least one who responds to it.
