Wrong - he says he doesn't use actors...if he did, he could lose his job. The ethics are a bit stronger on British TV. And besides which, why bother? For him, the whole point is to implant thoughts by saying them faster than the unassuming victims have time to think them themselves. Like someone talking to you while you're trying to drive and read a direction sign: it gets impossible and that's when people's minds will take his cues because their own are being overwhelmed. Very fast, very slick.

@hossrex:So you did study up on NLP and Hypnosis???I don't think so. I'm very much into hypnosis and NLP and you wouldn't believe what is possible. Sometimes the possibilities in life are far more complex and rich than they seem when you look at things only on the surface.

To all the people who insist its actual psychology, and NLP... why do you believe that?The answer?You believe it because the man whom you believe has these skills told you to believe it. The misdirection is simple. He tells you its real. You believe the simple premise that its real.Its not.He's awesome at what he does, because he can convince people that he's full of crap, but that you should believe every word he says, all at the same time.No law says TV can't lie to you. Sucker.

You realy have to digg yourself into this kind of psychology. Not just say what you think. There are things that you still dont know about.
