Derren Brown!!!!!

Just finished watching Trick of the Mind on C4... the man's proper dodgy.  He was walking up to people and asking them for directions, all the time distracting them with his words... finally he would ask them to hold his bottle of water and then ask them for their wallets, mobile's, house key's whatever and they would fuckin give him them.  He just say's nice one and walks off, they don't have a clue about what's just happened until they're half way up the road and then they would run after him

Apparently it's a massively growing form of street robbery somewhere abroad

the best one was were the guy came after him, he got his stuff back then he did it to him again! hahahahaha.

yeah class stuff, as i said in the other thread, that kinda persuation has got to be soo handy - imagine how easy it'd be to get girls!

and make em greatful the morning after, even though you're not gonna see em again

.... He managed to get money out of a racetrack cashier in his last series........ with a losing ticket.  Class in a jar mate

He should be a master criminal, not a TV person! Could you imagine it?

"I'm arresting you for being in possesion of a class A drug" "No you're not." "No, I'm not... Have a nice day..."

Class!

sounds like a jedi master "you will go home and rethink your life"!!!!!

He uses NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming)....fucking awsome stuff, a mate of mine's trained in it and it's incredible what you can do with it. Interesting thing is that anyone can be taught it......thinks....

got any info on it mate? any books to read and what not? would be very usefull to me being a salesman lol

I'm surprised you're not familiar with it Darren...especially as a salesman. I'll have a chat to my mate over the weekend and get him to reccomend a few....I'll let you know soon as I do.

Also, check this site for further information.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) studies the structure of how humans think and experience the world.

Obviously the structure of something so subjective does not lend itself to

precise statistical formulae but instead, leads to models of how these things work.

From these models, techniques for quickly and effectively changing thoughts, behaviors and beliefs that get in your way have been developed.
