Hi

I am very new to this mind control
stuff but find it all extremely fascinating so thanks
for all the interesting posts so far.

I have
just watched the video and Simon C is right, it's
amazing - on about 60% of the 'games' where you can see
Derren's hands, whilst talking up to the three taps to
signify the start of the game, he makes gestures with his
hands which are then copied by his subject. The best
example is when he asks if he is to win, lose or draw,
and then explains he is going to turn around, whilst
all the time making the paper shape. His subject then
comes out with paper, Derren chooses Scissors, and he
wins!

If anyone has tried this on their friends I would be
interested to hear their results!
