Subject: Re: [Derren Brown] The Handshake Technique?

The hand shake in the ghost train is not much of a shake but it is
finnished. The right hand goes for the shake and takes hold of the
mans hand along with a take of the mans wrist. The hand shake hand it
pulled away after the first few words if I remember correctly.

The more interesting thing is what goes on with the hand that is
holding the guys wrist and the way he moves it in tune and tempo with
what he says.
