If you are not already doing so, could you please teach some other folk some of the things that you perform. The world needs wonder. Communication is key. Thank you.
I feel I have photographic memory with the amount of times these clips have been re-uploaded
yes indeed…and Derren with hair…who knew?
Lllllpllllllll
As a student, that would be so helpful
Yeah why is he not sharing that with us?
It’s funny they don’t teach you these skills in school or college
The way you are reading tells me that you are truly photo reading, from the coffee beans to this you have developed an impressive memory! Will master photo reading this year - this is my all time favorite video!
I knew John Laffin, historian who lived just round the corner in the little town in Mid Wales where i was brought up.
How can this guy not be flipping out? Amazing skill… or any astounding trick. Either way… Thanks for the video.
There is an ear piece, he repeats the book name and page number so they know what to look for, they look it up and he repeats what they tell him. That's why he is speaking slower than usual, to give them time.
@@itstimeforlee actually this is not true. Photo reading or "mind palace" is actually real mnemonic technique. But the truth is that it is mostly useless. You can synthesis knowledge out of such memory and it "evaporates" quickly.
Daren Brown in one of his videos ecplained this skill. He called this "mind palace". And the main secret of this skill is that it is mostly useless (Daren told that himself) 🙂
We only have their word for it that it wasn’t a setup
How do you do that Derren? Can you teach us?
How did he do that?
Earpiece
@@sanderkonto297 So you say that he's repeating what he hears?
@@fredwitherow420 yes
@@sanderkonto297 Indeed, many of the psychics he used to investigate used earpieces. He is a master illusionist.
Incredible
and i dont think its a trick...thats what makes Darren Brown a master...I will start researching about this, I can do it on a very very small window of time and with single pagers, I guess its a matter of practice and there is some technique to it...which I am not familiar with, any recommendations on tutorials or books explaining the method would be very welcome xD...
his name is DERREN not Darren
No, memorizing millions of books is simply not possible. Even dozens of books, I expect, would not be feasible without dedicating your entire life to it. "Photographic Memory" is a myth.
@@isaiahayers1550 Kim Peak memorized 12000 books, and was investigated with regard to his abilities, so likely it isn't to far off. Millions of books is still another level though...
@@kareandersson well sure but 12,000 and a million aren't very close. And he's also an anomaly. Probably one in billions. And technically he didn't memorize every single word. He memorized 98% of what he read.
@@isaiahayers155012,000 and a million aren't very close which I recognized - but dozens of books is well within the limits. If you talk about perfect photographic memory the comparision is limited by the eye already, since the eye has a very small focus, so you can very well remember everything you see and still have glitches when for instance be asked about details in a book. Likely many of the stories about eidetic memory are exaggerated, but there are cases which I believe will get the "ok" from most people. Exactly how they remember - if they remember the images as scenery - probably differs from case to case. But for instance there are experiements done with people memorizing one gibberish pattern with the left eye, later another with the right eye, which patterns are parts of a 3D image which makes sense only as a 3D scene as the individual images are completely chaotic. These people have been able to describe the 3D images hidden. This must realistically be taken as evidence that these people have very close to the idea about photographic memory.
Wow, that’s an old one! 😊
Jen’s mom Beth here; What is the real difference between a magician vs. a mentalist? I grew up watching “The Amazing Kreskin” as a child, known as a mentalist. Some magicians seem to do both. Is the training and education different or is it all considered “magic”?
That everything is same if u think about it
Who’s Jen?
Mentalism is a subset of magic. There are many crossover skills and methods. The primary difference between the two is that mentalism is often presented as "real" and people believe it. See comments on this video saying that it's not a trick (it most definitely IS a trick).
@@peterbangers8147 much more accurate to say both are a subset of the mystery arts along with hypnotism, escape artists, etc. They use some overlapping skills but otherwise the approaches are very different. Mentalism doesn’t have to be presented as real psychic powers, but for the performer to be effective they should *perform* it that way. Mentalism should look like a demonstration of mental powers, even if the performer is using disclaimers like Derren.
@@Rhewin Mentalist tricks ARE magic tricks. You can't convince me otherwise because I know what I am talking about given that it's my profession and one area of expertise in the world.
Belinda Carlisle - Heaven Is A Place On Earth
How the hell did he do that???
Earpiece
@@sanderkonto297 Haha
@@sanderkonto297 Exactly. As if he remembered the whole book!! All the psychics he used to investigate used earpieces.
It’s a trick I’ve done myself, it’s not an ear piece but also you don’t actually memorise the whole book. It’s a trick after all
@@JohnWilliams-vs3rb Then what if a part of the book is asked about and you haven't memorized it?
5th always? Its fake
The universe is very magical, what can the universe do through your body? I don't believe in magic. For example.
Fun fact : he also failed his school exams
Earpiece..
Having seen previous feats of "amazing ability" turning out to be just cheating I do believe that this is indeed that. Either fed the info or a camera is on the page he is looking at. They are not shot together. When we see Derren it is over the shoulder of what we are led to believe is this fella and we see Derren without obvious ear piece but he can have shot this afterwards and in the actual recording of their conversation it might have been more obvious to the keen observer. That is just one of probably several explanations for this "skill".
@@clausclausie7560 100% Never take anything he says at face value. He is a highly intelligent and competent illusionist.
He’s intelligent enough that the trick won’t be as simple as just an earpiece, where’s the satisfaction in that? I’ve done a very similar trick that works brilliantly and doesn’t involve any sort of earpiece.
It is so fake it hurts.😢
The guy in his earpiece needs to brush up on his French.
Probably done with astral traveling, it's a technique of the fallen/ angels Derren Brown is a starseed
