I'm sure Derren's nodding is not on purpose, it is true that you can elicit
a yes from someone by using a technique like this, see the one-inch punch
where he say's "you feel this, yes?" and the fellow responds in the
affirmative. But Derren's nervous nod is a tic without doubt and a pretty
bad one. Psychologists say Tics are common in people with an obsessive
personality.....
