Subject: Re: [Derren Brown] E4 OR MC1??
I can't be bothered checking the video, but as far as, i remember
Derren uses a little bit more than the word "Sleep!" when he
interrupts the woman. I am sure it goes more along the lines
of "Eyes closed, relax NOW!!!"..some more commands..NOW.". Also
notice that he places his other hand behind the neck of the woman in
the lecture in order to tilt her head downwards, this is also quite
important, as you take 'control'. "I am going to do this with your
arm NOW".
Cheers, Gordon
P.S Would you not agree it is better to get the Derrren Lecture
before paying £800 to get the first edition of pure effect. It does
show how hit and miss Derren's form of mentalism actually is, an
impression which people dont get form the MC series.
