So many messages about FilmTheory putting out a similar video yesterday. I actually shot this two days ago and uploaded yesterday to my channel. It got demonetize and so I re-uploaded it today. Go check out my Twitter! Crazy coincidence!
PLEASE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS! I also started downloading confession tapes and cat wait to start watching them. I am someone who sometimes pays too much attention to small (some might say unimportant details) and I think that I sometimes get tripped up by them. I'm learning to take those little details into context and see how they fit into the bigger picture. I have a really high emotional IQ. Some people describe it as intuition or a "sixth sense", but there is nothing magical about it. I know how to read people. I have never tried to focus or hone my skills to actually be able to do something with it. It sounds so silly when I say it out loud, but I want to be a mentalist...... English is my second language, I live in South Africa and I speak Afrikaans, so I don't know if that is the right word. But I definitely want to go just beyond "reading" people. When I was much younger I would pretend that I could read palms. It make me laugh just thinking about it. They were always so amazed that I knew so much about them without actually knowing them and actually I was just commenting about observations I had made about them. Crazy. But yes I would LOVE to know more about this. Great video!
Chris Ramsay Hey Chris Ramsayyy I really don't know where to start because I have allotttt to sayy I don't even know if you're going to respond to this but to fill my mind I am writing this,I fucking loveee love love love loveeeeeeee you❤️❤️ you really don't understand how it feels when you reply or like a comment,as soooooo n as your video is up I will be the top 100 viewers I love your channel that much and believe it or not I am I ammmmm the biggest fan,I am sure I am the biggest fan! I have stuck posters of you all over my room,I love Chris and can't define more than this,I seriously havnt learnt that much English Language in school to express my love,I performed the same kind of magic that you do and to my astonishment we have he same interests,even I loveeeee magic and cinematography and I just want to request one video! This isn't just me I have seen many people requesting this video about how you film edit and especially especiallyyyyy WHAT FILTER YOU USE!? speaking of this I am sure this is already really long and I don't want to make it longer otherwise I won't have any chances of you reading this! But to sogn off and to show my life for your channel-here's an example-you were going to live stream sometime and I checked it that what time would you be streaming at Indian standard time and I realised it was 3 am in the morning and to see that livestream I got up at 2:45 to watch it and that's my love for the chann l- biggest fan ever-Krish Shanghvi❤️
Hey Chris haven't watched the video yet. Saw you were having some issues getting it uploaded yesterday. But I got to say I'm diggin the early video. Getting my day at the office off right!
How the hell you performed the last trick in the video . I guess that you forced the person to get the jack of spade and then I don’t know what you did.please reveal it.
I performed the teleporting cards that Blaine performed on the Jimmy Fallon show. There is a moment when additional 7 cards are loaded during the second face of the trick, making the total cards 20, but spectators still think that their number stays the same (13). A spectator of mine actually grabbed the cards and started counting them right after I loaded them. He counted until 8 or 9 before I directed his attention to something else. After the trick, he insisted that he counted the whole pack and there were only 13 cards! Didn't know how it turned out to be 20. The trick went better than expected. Human mind is truly beautiful.
Yeah that's right,but I have situation with the heckler,they wanted me to do the trick twice,and I'm still figure it out how to steal the card... Can anyone tell me how to deal with it?
@@falahfadhillah9547 Just move on with a trick better than that. Or maybe force him a card and then Elmsley count 5 cards twice and after that show him that there are actually only 4 cards which happens to be the 4 of a kind of whichever card you forced him.
Chris I’ve been watching you for quite some time and I love the videos where you discuss the theory and psychology behind magic. I find these videos to really entertaining and informative. I’d love to see more of them. So keep up the good work dude!
This is why I love the channel. It's not a " look how the trick is done" but the behind the curtain on WHY the magic becomes real. Such a diffent look on how magic works. Thanks
At 12:26 he looks at the top card card of the knights deck which is marked and therefore knows which card the spectator chose. He then uses advocate by daniel madison which is a full deck pocket index to get the jack of spades.
Actually there was a shortcut or a crimp card on Chris's deck which happens to be the J♠ which Chris handed to him to pick, so no matter how the spectator cuts, he would always have the J♠ since its crimpped or maybe just a shortcut force. After that, he just picks a random card from the spectator's deck which he puts inside his pocket and then takes out the J♠ which was already in his pocket before the trick started.
I enjoy very much hearing Ramsay's views and many other magicians views on magic and how they think and process it. The key in this video is his "emphasis on emphasis". Giving Unimportant moments more emphasis than the Important moments. Wildly thought provoking.
I love it when you delve into the intellectual intricacies of how magic works and the psychology behind it. In my opini9n, it helps us all be better magicians. Thank you for what you do.
I certainly was aware of the whole "if they say its important its not and if its not important it is" thing but never to the level of using the brains natural functions against it. That was incredibly fascinating and educational ... awesome!
So much good information. Thank you Chris. I'm 42 years old and all of this is very new to me but I'm trying to prove an old dogs can still learn new tricks and you are helping me do that so thanks again
This is exactly the kind of video I was hoping you'd make, except yours is even better than I had imagined. Your explanations are so clear and impactful, and make so much sense, without giving away too much. I'm gonna check out that Derren Brown book you mentioned. I haven't read that one.
I realise this is not directly related to the video but I've watched your videos for a while now,and though I struggle with the dexterity needed for a lot of sleights I bit the bullet and did my first performance for 2 complete strangers today. I got through 2 whole tricks....that's right TWO (don't laugh)... Without messing up at all. So thanks to yourself,jay Sankey and Brian brushwood for a proud moment, keep up the good work. Much respect, Will Morgan
I'm actually doing a TED talk presentation for a project in my psychology class and this gave me something more to add to that!! Love your work man! :)
This is a GREAT concept. I noticed this about 4 or 5 years ago. People will exaggerate effects I did and make it seem like a miracle. Great video man. Love it
i remembered you teaching a simple trick with a coin where you knocked it on the table, and then it disappears through the table to your other hand.. I did that, and my friend swore that the coin was there on the table, when what actually happened is that, i simply did what you taught us to do (play with the sound, etc).. To let them associate the memory they experienced, with the effect itself.. I think that get a good reaction from the spectator. keep up the good work bro!
I really enjoyed this. That’s some really thought provoking stuff. Definitely worth some thought exploration. It’s like learning another language or learning a new life skill, taking in all the details, not just the bright lights. 🖤👊🏻
This is great stuff! I feel like this happens with the cris cross force a bit. I’ve also done a few basic tricks and then people tell what happened to a friend and I’m like, “that’s not happened at all.” Anyways, keep up the great work Chris, I’ve learned a lot from you ever since first seeing you on 52Kards (spread and butter). Also congrats on 700k, well deserved!
What I have an idea about his bonus trick: He shuffled his own deck of card himself, so he knows where are all the position of each cards in his deck which he later exchanged it with the other man. When they split the cards. It doesn't really matter for him when he split the deck (look at his eyes 12:22 ) but he observes carefully when the man split the cards (look at his eyes 12:24) Now either he by hearted all the cards arrangement or made a small hint mark on some cards. Hence he came to know what is the top card. So when they took out their cards from pocket, he actually took out the other card from his pocket(arranged systematically) similar to that man's card. Since it requires memory to learn all the cards position, he might get wrong, that is why he told that 'maybe this trick won't work' This is what I think! Am I right? Pls reply.. Chris
You're making the trick so hard. Actually there was a shortcut or a crimp card on Chris's deck which happens to be the J♠ which Chris handed to him to pick, so no matter how the spectator cuts, he would always land on the J♠ since its crimpped or just a shortcut force. After that, he just picks a random card from the spectator's deck which he puts inside his pocket and then takes out the J♠ which was already in his pocket before the trick started.
please please please Chris make some tutorials on mentalism and power of suggestion, and stuff like that... i know it kinda unfair to other magicians BUT if you could use a mentalism trick that everyone use and "know"and implement in your trick in some way.
This feels like a solid patter at the start of the performance, it would be interesting to build that into like a P&T Fool Us style routine if there was an effect that fit.
The tutorials are awesome, but more videos like this please. Very good. Great for new people like myself who like to learn foundational info and than try to find ways to create new effects, or at least new to us haha. Learning all the tricks in the world is cool, but knowing about and understanding principles is soooooo much better.
One of the coin tricks I learned, involved me holding up my empty hand "showing them the coin", while pocketing it with the other. It's only half a second, but way more than enough time to clearly see an empty hand. But for whatever reason, 9 time out of 10, they just roll with it, assume they didn't see it well and then remember me showing them. It works especially well in dim lighting and when wearing a ring. You can even help it along by showing them how you pinch coins between your fingers beforehand. Sometimes being overly ballsy just pays off.
Hey Chris (if you're there). I've always liked magic but I started, to try doing it myself since July 2017. I live in Denmark and I'm 13 years old. I practice magic every day at least for 2 hours. And try the game "The room" if you dont know it. it is a fun puzzle game.
Cold reading is very powerful, I remember this one session with hidden camera where medium said over 30 names and the customer remembered only 4. It is crazy how faulty our memory is.
Do you think you could do a video on the Double Cross? Not a tutorial of course, but just like, it's interesting to see how each different magician performs it.
This is kind of like why magic in person in always so much better than tv magic. and example I have is with the biddle where the person swears i never touched the deck
Oh damn I wish this video went on and on forever. Love the subject! Will check out that book! If anyone has more book suggestions on the topic, please drop them here!
Holy Chris!!! This mind hacking is some very scary stuff! I wondering how many times I have been mind hacked. I'm curious to know if a very intelligent person or a genius can be mind hacked? Also, can we do anything to try not to be mind hacked? If you could do more videos on this subject that would be cool. :) Have a good one.
Chris, if this type of stuff interests you, then I highly suggest you check out the work of Elizabeth Loftus. She’s a cognitive psychologist and has many many studies on memory. I think she may have even done a Ted Talk
You are so right Chris! This helped me realize the truth about something that happened to me that has always bothered me. (This is going to be a bit long, I apologize.) When my cousin and I were teenagers, we were walking through his apartment complex, and were confronted by this kid who REALLY didn't like my cousin. The next thing I know, these two were going at it, and this kid got my cousin pinned to the ground and was starting to whale on him. Obviously I couldn't let my cousin get beat up, so, being a pretty large guy my whole life, I reached down and literally dragged this kid off of him. The kid stood up and turned on me like he was going to fight me. I absolutely HATE violence. I looked at him and yelled, "Go home!" He still looked like he wanted to jump me, so I pointed in a random direction and repeated myself. Finally this kid reluctantly turned and left. (Again, I'm a pretty big guy.) We get back to his apartment, and he starts telling his brother this WILD story about how this kid got him on the ground, then suddenly he was FLYING off of him, (his words) and I told the kid to go home and he ran away! I was so embarrassed. I couldn't understand why my cousin had taken this boring story and made it so fantastic. Until today. That is how it actually happened from his perspective! You're the best Chris. Thank you for this and all of your videos. Peace
Awesome video as usual Chris, love the method and talk on memories. Keep up the amazing work and keep inspiring people like me! You're the best man! #RAMFAM
One if my favorite cases of false memories actually involves your trick Red Pill. When the person I performed it to retells it, she says she signed the card, and the signed card appeared in the cellophane. She never signed anything.
I forgot which magician but he always follows the trick where you pull thread from your eye and follows it up with Houdini’s needle trick where he swallows needles and thread and pulls out a thread with all the needles threaded onto it. Afterward, a lot of his audience remembers the trick being him pulling a string with needles from his eye, which is much more impressive in their mind.
2:14 Derren Brown did that once. It was awesome. He used gaslighting to make the person question his thoughts, then did a good cop bad cop thing to make him confess to a murder. Also 2:34 that's a real thing. I forgot the name if the condition but they remember every day if their lives from essentially their birth.
9:10 I read the same thing about false memory with that coin trick on one of Derren Brown's book "Tricks of the mind", so cool! Didi you read that book? I recommend it a lot. Oh btw, nice video ;D
Notification squaddd. I don't really remember an exact moment of memory altercation between me and the spectator but I look forward to practicing it and hopefully using it during performance. ♠♣♦🔥
So many messages about FilmTheory putting out a similar video yesterday. I actually shot this two days ago and uploaded yesterday to my channel. It got demonetize and so I re-uploaded it today. Go check out my Twitter! Crazy coincidence!
I remember seeing this uploaded yesterday, or did I? I think I did, my memory wouldn't lie to me
What a coincidence indeed.

Chris Ramsay where can i sent you my fan mail??
Chris Ramsay u know film theory!!!!!! I love em
Dude this video is so good!!
Thanks buddy!
we have a fooler here!
Tell me your stories of false memories! What did they say that wasn't true?
Chris Ramsay Hey Chris Ramsayyy I really don't know where to start because I have allotttt to sayy I don't even know if you're going to respond to this but to fill my mind I am writing this,I fucking loveee love love love loveeeeeeee you❤️❤️ you really don't understand how it feels when you reply or like a comment,as soooooo n as your video is up I will be the top 100 viewers I love your channel that much and believe it or not I am I ammmmm the biggest fan,I am sure I am the biggest fan!

Finding out a lot of my favorite jokes I've always made, aren't mine.
Yippie.
Hey Chris haven't watched the video yet. Saw you were having some issues getting it uploaded yesterday. But I got to say I'm diggin the early video. Getting my day at the office off right!
Did sinful and card to wallet, spectator walked away saying I made the card disappeared and reappear in the can
How the hell you performed the last trick in the video . I guess that you forced the person to get the jack of spade and then I don’t know what you did.please reveal it.

Human mind is truly beautiful.
Felix Frost I like the trick, I noticed the same👌😂
Felix Frost best part of Double Cross is when they insist “HE NEVER TOUCHED ME” lol
Yeah that's right,but I have situation with the heckler,they wanted me to do the trick twice,and I'm still figure it out how to steal the card... Can anyone tell me how to deal with it?
@@falahfadhillah9547 Just move on with a trick better than that. Or maybe force him a card and then Elmsley count 5 cards twice and after that show him that there are actually only 4 cards which happens to be the 4 of a kind of whichever card you forced him.
Scientists: "Mouse, do you remember anything at all?"
Mouse: *silence*
Scientists: "My God. What have we done?"
It's honestly beautiful how you talk about this. I love how you really let your passion for this art shine through.
Chris I’ve been watching you for quite some time and I love the videos where you discuss the theory and psychology behind magic. I find these videos to really entertaining and informative. I’d love to see more of them. So keep up the good work dude!
That's why I've said to my friends for years that a lot of magic tricks are basically jumpcuts irl.
This is actually a really good metaphor.
This is why I love the channel. It's not a " look how the trick is done" but the behind the curtain on WHY the magic becomes real. Such a diffent look on how magic works. Thanks
HOLY WOW the bonus trick though, name for it??

Would love More videos on engineering tricks and Dude plssssss teach the one at the end!! Pls!
Super interesting concept here Chris. Love this type of thinking and new ideas
I certainly was aware of the whole "if they say its important its not and if its not important it is" thing but never to the level of using the brains natural functions against it. That was incredibly fascinating and educational ... awesome!
One of your best videos by far. I love your take on the philosophies and concepts of magic!
It's fascinating how our minds work.
I'm reading tricks of the mind now, just finished confessions last week.
So much good information. Thank you Chris. I'm 42 years old and all of this is very new to me but I'm trying to prove an old dogs can still learn new tricks and you are helping me do that so thanks again
This is exactly the kind of video I was hoping you'd make, except yours is even better than I had imagined. Your explanations are so clear and impactful, and make so much sense, without giving away too much. I'm gonna check out that Derren Brown book you mentioned. I haven't read that one.
I'm actually writing a research paper on false memories. You just gave me another topic to research. Thank you so much, Chris!
thats why i love ur videos, Chris! U don't just teach magic, you bring to us some super interesting concepts! Thank you, man
I realise this is not directly related to the video but I've watched your videos for a while now,and though I struggle with the dexterity needed for a lot of sleights I bit the bullet and did my first performance for 2 complete strangers today. I got through 2 whole tricks....that's right TWO (don't laugh)... Without messing up at all. So thanks to yourself,jay Sankey and Brian brushwood for a proud moment, keep up the good work. Much respect, Will Morgan
Never been so early!
Only better thing that could happen would be if chris replies!!!
Done!
Chris Ramsay made my day!!
Its like when doing most card tricks, "the cards have been in your hands the whole time, right?" "RIGHT!" lol
Stephen Hammer Magic hi
Chris has actually covered this topic a couple of times before, and uses it well in his BTYCTM routine.
I forgot my birthday after watching this video...
Luke Richardville lmao
I'm actually doing a TED talk presentation for a project in my psychology class and this gave me something more to add to that!! Love your work man! :)
This channel's amazing, my first time here
This is a SICK video!! It has the look and feel of a traditional Chris Ramsay tutorial!!
This is a GREAT concept. I noticed this about 4 or 5 years ago. People will exaggerate effects I did and make it seem like a miracle. Great video man. Love it
This is to me one of the best videos in your channel! (And I've been around here for quite a few years)
Fascinating stuff. Please do more videos like this with the psychology behind effects. Please!
Man the exaggerating stories and astonishment bit got me good, so freaking true!
I think this is the absolute best piece of advice i've gotten to actually execute a magic trick
i remembered you teaching a simple trick with a coin where you knocked it on the table, and then it disappears through the table to your other hand.. I did that, and my friend swore that the coin was there on the table, when what actually happened is that, i simply did what you taught us to do (play with the sound, etc).. To let them associate the memory they experienced, with the effect itself.. I think that get a good reaction from the spectator.
keep up the good work bro!
I wish I could like this one twice. It really added insight for me to misdirection and delivery.
Awesome video! I bit daunting as an idea, but really precious! :D Thank you Chris!
Now this is the best advice we can get on TH-cam #ramfam
I really enjoyed this. That’s some really thought provoking stuff. Definitely worth some thought exploration. It’s like learning another language or learning a new life skill, taking in all the details, not just the bright lights. 🖤👊🏻
This is great stuff! I feel like this happens with the cris cross force a bit. I’ve also done a few basic tricks and then people tell what happened to a friend and I’m like, “that’s not happened at all.” Anyways, keep up the great work Chris, I’ve learned a lot from you ever since first seeing you on 52Kards (spread and butter). Also congrats on 700k, well deserved!
A magic theory video!!!🤘🏻 the best video you have made so far!
I use this clip in my Intro Psych class when we discuss memory. :) Your videos make these concepts fun!
Dude! Awesome video! I love when you get into the psychology behind how to use magic!
This bonus trick is literally out of this world! Love it!
What I have an idea about his bonus trick: He shuffled his own deck of card himself, so he knows where are all the position of each cards in his deck which he later exchanged it with the other man. When they split the cards. It doesn't really matter for him when he split the deck (look at his eyes 12:22 ) but he observes carefully when the man split the cards (look at his eyes 12:24) Now either he by hearted all the cards arrangement or made a small hint mark on some cards.

Since it requires memory to learn all the cards position, he might get wrong, that is why he told that 'maybe this trick won't work'
This is what I think! Am I right? Pls reply.. Chris
no he showed these cards, white lions in one of his videos.. and how you can know which card it is by looking at the back of the card
You're making the trick so hard. Actually there was a shortcut or a crimp card on Chris's deck which happens to be the J♠ which Chris handed to him to pick, so no matter how the spectator cuts, he would always land on the J♠ since its crimpped or just a shortcut force. After that, he just picks a random card from the spectator's deck which he puts inside his pocket and then takes out the J♠ which was already in his pocket before the trick started.
please please please Chris make some tutorials on mentalism and power of suggestion, and stuff like that... i know it kinda unfair to other magicians BUT if you could use a mentalism trick that everyone use and "know"and implement in your trick in some way.
acidnave go to the website ellusionist and look for cypher!
HOOOOOOOLY HELL!! thnx a BUNCH!!! :D
Thankyou for giving me something interesting to think of at work, you’re a true legend
I was actually looking for your magic con video on your channel and found the video before even getting notified.
This has happened to me, I want more theory videos like this, awesome.
This feels like a solid patter at the start of the performance, it would be interesting to build that into like a P&T Fool Us style routine if there was an effect that fit.
The power of the mind and imagination is amazing!!!!
Really awsome vid and explanation!
Thank you!
Wow Chris, this is a super interesting concept!! Great video...
wow ! this is the first time i am hearing about this entire concept. Love your content Chris ! #RESPECT
I love this video more than any tutorial that you have put up! Very interesting subject.
FROM QUEBEC SQUAD. Jconaissais Jemcee, je regardais tes vidéos. Surpris de vous voir ensemble, vous devriez faire ça plus souvent! Good tricks dude!
really enjoyed watching it !
The tutorials are awesome, but more videos like this please. Very good. Great for new people like myself who like to learn foundational info and than try to find ways to create new effects, or at least new to us haha. Learning all the tricks in the world is cool, but knowing about and understanding principles is soooooo much better.
VERY cool video Chris! The human mind is crazy...
I absolutely love your videos like this. Really examining things!!
One of the coin tricks I learned, involved me holding up my empty hand "showing them the coin", while pocketing it with the other. It's only half a second, but way more than enough time to clearly see an empty hand. But for whatever reason, 9 time out of 10, they just roll with it, assume they didn't see it well and then remember me showing them. It works especially well in dim lighting and when wearing a ring. You can even help it along by showing them how you pinch coins between your fingers beforehand.
Sometimes being overly ballsy just pays off.
One of the most interesting video’s you’ve ever made!
Man, that was sick! I really enjoyed!

Do you think you could do a video on the Double Cross? Not a tutorial of course, but just like, it's interesting to see how each different magician performs it.
This was totally worth waking up for, it was interesting, keep up the awesome work and thanks for being such a great inspiration.
This is kind of like why magic in person in always so much better than tv magic. and example I have is with the biddle where the person swears i never touched the deck
that bonus video was amazing
Chris face at 8:22 is f****ing hilarious
"no i checked for wires"
Dude ur my favourite TH-cam keep on doing that grind
There was a limitless episode about this. Also on Netflix. Worth a watch.
Good stuff Chris. Very interesting. Great subject. Would like to hear more. Thanks.
Great topic for research! Applied in magic, can have a performance during presentation ☺
Oh damn I wish this video went on and on forever. Love the subject! Will check out that book! If anyone has more book suggestions on the topic, please drop them here!
Physiological subtlety Vols. 1-3 are my favourite mentalism books. they are kind of pricey tho but ill bet you can find free pdfs over the internet
Chris there has to be alot that you dont show in the video! But its so fun to watch you do the tricks! :) hahaha
Holy Chris!!! This mind hacking is some very scary stuff! I wondering how many times I have been mind hacked. I'm curious to know if a very intelligent person or a genius can be mind hacked? Also, can we do anything to try not to be mind hacked? If you could do more videos on this subject that would be cool. :) Have a good one.
Chris, if this type of stuff interests you, then I highly suggest you check out the work of Elizabeth Loftus. She’s a cognitive psychologist and has many many studies on memory. I think she may have even done a Ted Talk
great video as always
Look at the decks, they’re completely normal! Lol, I love my knights, @chrisramsay52. Damn good job
You are so right Chris! This helped me realize the truth about something that happened to me that has always bothered me. (This is going to be a bit long, I apologize.)
When my cousin and I were teenagers, we were walking through his apartment complex, and were confronted by this kid who REALLY didn't like my cousin. The next thing I know, these two were going at it, and this kid got my cousin pinned to the ground and was starting to whale on him.
Obviously I couldn't let my cousin get beat up, so, being a pretty large guy my whole life, I reached down and literally dragged this kid off of him. The kid stood up and turned on me like he was going to fight me. I absolutely HATE violence. I looked at him and yelled, "Go home!" He still looked like he wanted to jump me, so I pointed in a random direction and repeated myself. Finally this kid reluctantly turned and left. (Again, I'm a pretty big guy.)
We get back to his apartment, and he starts telling his brother this WILD story about how this kid got him on the ground, then suddenly he was FLYING off of him, (his words) and I told the kid to go home and he ran away!
I was so embarrassed. I couldn't understand why my cousin had taken this boring story and made it so fantastic. Until today. That is how it actually happened from his perspective!
You're the best Chris. Thank you for this and all of your videos. Peace
I knew you ditched the coin lol. I’ve been watching your videos too long now. I enjoy watching and learning 😊
Awesome video as usual Chris, love the method and talk on memories. Keep up the amazing work and keep inspiring people like me! You're the best man! #RAMFAM
Phenomenal vid Chris! Love this content, keep it up.
One if my favorite cases of false memories actually involves your trick Red Pill. When the person I performed it to retells it, she says she signed the card, and the signed card appeared in the cellophane.
She never signed anything.
I forgot which magician but he always follows the trick where you pull thread from your eye and follows it up with Houdini’s needle trick where he swallows needles and thread and pulls out a thread with all the needles threaded onto it.
Afterward, a lot of his audience remembers the trick being him pulling a string with needles from his eye, which is much more impressive in their mind.
Plz tell us more about interesting therories, phsycolocial fact and more!
Great video! I love this type of content. Thank you, Chris!
Thanks for the material Chris !!!
2:14 Derren Brown did that once. It was awesome. He used gaslighting to make the person question his thoughts, then did a good cop bad cop thing to make him confess to a murder.
Also 2:34 that's a real thing. I forgot the name if the condition but they remember every day if their lives from essentially their birth.
I feel like Chris should have a podcast
HE NEVER CHECKED FOR WIRES! :O I love this video times x100000000000000. Keep exploring outside the box Chris. Phenomenal
Chris is the best youtuber
Happens all the time. False memory with the recap during the effect can be the strongest tool for a mentalist.
9:10 I read the same thing about false memory with that coin trick on one of Derren Brown's book "Tricks of the mind", so cool! Didi you read that book? I recommend it a lot. Oh btw, nice video ;D
Keep on that grind my friend keep being you ur great
holy shit chris i remember being the first to tweet ab you hitting 500K subs now your almost at 700K
Sweet video mate, could you make a tutorial of the vanishing your card trick in the show 'deception'?
Notification squaddd. I don't really remember an exact moment of memory altercation between me and the spectator but I look forward to practicing it and hopefully using it during performance. ♠♣♦🔥
Great man. I love this video! Psychology is so fascinating!
Have you seen the Derren Brown special where he makes someone confess to a crime they didn’t commit?? Crazy!!
