CARD SUGGESTIONS

first is a card suggestion which has 80% success rate All this information must be credited to Derren.

The 5 of Hearts

Ok, what I want I to do is to go with me here…listen to what I’m going to tell you…look at me closely…ok…don’t think

of your favourite card…or any one card in particular…just see it as it comes to you…ok?

Excellent…ok…I want u to see a card…nice and bright…burn it in your mind (hold your fist to your forehead)… good and

a suit (move your fist to your heart… pat it on your heart a few times)… good…and make it a card I wouldn’t usually go

for…a slightly strange card…an ordinary one...an odd (emphasise odd slightly with voice tonality) card… now see its

value (as you do this open your fist out so the 5 fingers are spread — wave this across from left to right or vice versa

quickly…but not so quick they don’t register it for a second or so. Use your hand like you are emphasising what you are

saying…don’t pay too much attention to it)… ok… and once you have the value stick with it… most people say the 5 of

hearts. you can reveal the card how you wish just play about and see what you come up with.

The 3 of Diamonds

To do this effect all you need is one card (3 of diamonds).

Put the card in your jacket pocket and you are ready to perform the effect.

Here is the script to do the effect.

I have a card in my pocket (take card out, don’t show the face of the card) look here it is, I know what it is because I have

it here, I am going to try and transmit this playing card to you. If you try and guess what it is or if you go for your

favourite card or try and catch me out you will get it wrong, so don’t just pay attention and see if you can get it. I’ll put

it in my pocket for later. Here’s what you do you build an image in your mind imagine a screen you’ve got a screen in

you mind like that imagine the little number down at the bottom and up at the top like that and the things down the

middle the bum bum bum down the centre of the card, visualise that in you mind on the screen make the colour bright

and strong and vivid so you can see it clearly with the suit the screen and the 4 corners visualise that, now sharply in

your mind look at me and now say it out loud, say the card you have don’t change your mind, have you got it (wait for

name of card (3 of diamonds)) then reveal the card in your pocket.

Note:

· while saying Imagine a screen you’ve got a screen in you mind like that put you hands in a diamond shape (like

picture))

· while saying imagine the little number down at the bottom and up at the top like that draw a 3 with your finger down

at the bottom and up at the top (like a playing card has) make sure you draw the 3 backwards so the subject sees it the

correct way round)

· While saying bum bum bum point 3 times with your finger each point for each bum also put each point under the other.

· While saying down the centre of the card point with 3 of your fingers on the same hand vertically

Every time you say screen put your hand in that diamond shape.

All of this sublimely tells you to pick the 3 of Diamonds. How? Well, you put your hands in a diamond shape (yes a DIAMOND

shape) then you draw a 3 at the top and bottom (yes a 3 ) then you say bum 3 times. Then you point with 3 fingers and finally

you tell them to make the colour bright and strong and vivid (which can only red).

So now let’s look at the language you need to use to force the card you want.

If you want a Red Card say words like

Colourful, Bright, Warm, Burn, Intense, Vibrant, Rich and so on.

If you want a Black Card say words like

Dark, Cold, Mysterious, Shadowy, Faint, Dim and so on.

The presentation of these cards is up to you, think about it.

Suits

Hearts - Patting your fist on your chest ’Feel a suit’.

Diamonds - The Derren Brown hand move works well else ‘see a suit warmly and richly in your mind’.

Clubs - ‘See the suit emerging from the sort of klutzes n bums'.

Spades - ‘See the spare suit’ ‘Don’t dig around for the suit let it come to u’.

If you want a number card use words and phrases like

‘An ordinary one’ ‘A regular card’ ‘A simple card’ etc.

If you want an even card use words and phrases like

‘Even see the value of the card appearing’ ‘A regular value'

‘A nice neat value’ and so on.

If you want an odd card use words and phrases like

‘A slightly strange card’ ‘An oddcard’ etc.

If you want a court card use words and phrases like

‘Paint it in your mind’ ‘See it like a picture/painting’ ‘See it in finedetail’ and so on.

If you want court values use words and phrases like

Ace - ‘Cool card’ ‘Popular Card’ ‘Make it a winner’.

King - ‘Important’ ‘Dominant’ ‘LinKING with’.

Queen - ‘Precious’ ‘Protect’ ‘Pretty’.

Jack - ‘Don’t make the value too obvious’ ‘Not a member of a pair’ (this ones a tuffy!!)

So there we are, your going to have to build your own patter around these starting points and that is all they are but in

theory you should now be able to suggest any card in the deck…

Don’t underestimate the power of voice tonality and hand motions too, though it’s not too hard to figure some out for the

card your doing.

SYNCHRONIZED DRINKING

The Scene:

A dinner party in an elegant house. Five guests sit around a table

with a long tablecloth, Derren is seated at the head of the table.

Derren: “It’s interesting coming into a party at this point and seeing

the sort of rapport that exists between you.” “When people are getting

on they will do things like blink at the same rate, adopt the same breathing

pattern and even do things like take…a drink at exactly the same time.” “This is

something that can be…AMPLIFIED”.

Derren now turns to the guest to his right (Alex).

Derren: May I try this with you, what’s your name?

Alex: Alex

Derren: Alex, I’m Derren Derren now make a move to shake Alex’s hand and takes Alex’s wrist in his

left hand and holds it up towards his face. Look at your hand let your eyes close and,…Good

Alex is now in a trance and exhibits catalepsy so Derren can be clear he is hypnotised.

Derren: Let me come ‘round here Derren moves his chair closer to Alex, this is important for the effect to work as will be

seen later . Alex, I’m going to take your hand and give you your wine glass…there And I want you to put your head up

so we can see you though you can’t see us because your eyes remain closed. Now I can do this with Alex because I

can establish rapport with him quickly then I’d like to try it with you He indicates to Abby who sits at the far diagonal

corner of the table. Because I’ve noticed a rapport between you two as well.

Abby: Ok

Derren Ok, Alex with your glass there you’ll notice a pressure 0 around here. In a moment, I will take a sip from my

glass, when I do you’ll feel this pressure release I want you to allow the glass to come up to your mouth and you take

a sip too, so just wait, you’ll feel when it happens.

Derren : I’ll look the other way so I can’t see him. Derren now shifts around slightly in the chair, obviously not too far or he

won’t be able to maintain the foot pressure. After some small delay, Derren begins to raise his glass, releasing the foot

pressure as he does and Alex raises his glass in response to the release of pressure.

Derren: Bring the glass back down. How was That? The guests respond favourably. Can I try this with you now? Derren

indicates to Abby. You hold your glass of wine up as well. Now, you choose the moment you want this to happen, wait

as long as you like. Derren is of course watching Abby, he needs to know when she starts raising so he can again release the

pressure on Alex’s foot. The trick is performed and again the guests show their amazement.

Derren: Fantastic, bring your glass back down for me Abby. Alex bring your glass back down slowly. Derren assists

Alex to put his glass back down on to the table. And,…come back to me… open your eyes come back Alex is awakened

from the trance and the effect is complete.

(Derren moves his hand around the glass area but does not say to Alex, you’ll notice a pressure on the glass. As Alex has his

eyes closed the hand movement is obviously meant for the other guests to suggest the pressure is in Alex’s hand. However the

pressure is on Alex’s foot as Derren is pressing down on it with his foot.)

DAVE EVERETT

HAND STUCK TO TABLE

The hand stuck to table is more classic hypnosis and if you have a

reasonable grounding in hypnotic language you will understand what is

going on.

Patter:

(said quite rapidly ) Just put your hand on the desk to there in front

(Direct command - if she does it it shows she is accepting your suggestion. In the

same way if you are going to put someone in a trance it is useful get some agreement

from them such as Put your feet flat on the floor...put your hands on your lap...close your

eyes when you are ready to go into a trance - Yes Yes Yes)

...now I'm not going to hypnotise you...

(Embedded suggestion/Confusion/get rid of anxiety - by telling you what he is not going to do he is

suggesting that he is going to do something, this creates doubt and expectation. Also by emphasising words

he is saying " I am going to hypnotise you ". Also by saying this he enables Olga to relax if she has any anxiety

about going into a trance.

but I'm just going to (Haven't listened to it yet but so many of these words could be emphasised or marked out

by tone or turning the head one way of another such as - JUST GOING - later you could emphasis the word TRANCE or

NOW or anything else)

show you something that is interesting... (Creates curiosity and expectation that something will occur)

and is a kind of psychological trick...alright? (Alright will be followed by some kind of communication from Olga, that yes

she understands and she is happy with things so far) ...

just press your hand into the table (Direct suggestion - accepted. Into the table - how do you press your hand into the table -

this suggests something other than rest it lightly on the table does it not?)(pause)... (Olga is doing the work here - by trying to

figure out what is happening - subconsciously or consciously she is beginning to get a clue where this is going)

ok?...look me right in the eye (pause)...(Derren will be looking at her confidently and, I know I keep using this word,

congruently - probably looking straight through her with the clear expectation that something is about to occur. This will create

some confusion ' why is he looking like that - it is also another direct suggestion that she accepts - it also takes her

concentration off her hand which is pressing into the table and by now will have begun to go cataleptic - let me know if you

want an explanation of this. It is important because the effect he is gong for is catalepsy)(said fast and firmly, confidently) when

I take my hand off of yours you will not be able to lift your hand up in the air... (Direct)

The more you TRY in vein to un-STICK (emphasis on the `stick' part)

it from the table the tighter it sticks... (Double bind - the harder you try the more difficult it becomes - again classic Erickson

here. You can do exactly the same with a hand levitation. The harder you try and push it down the higher it lifts. TRY - cant

state how important this word is - it assumes failure and so can be put to your advantage.

GO ON (said in a slightly strained way)

...try as hard as you can to lift it but you can't the more you try the more it keeps on sticking...

( More of the same challenge/Double bind/Expectation of failure)at this point he tells the listeners how its not much to look at at

home...asks her how it feels etc...)(Jo Whiley tries to convince Olga she can but Derren Brown cuts in...)

Now I haven't hypnotised you your completely wide awake... (Liar - yes he has!!! Well wakening hypnotised her anyway)

you're sat here I'm just talking to you your hand stuck to the table...

(Pacing current experience - everything he just said

can be verified as true. She is sat there, her hand is stuck and he is just talking - this is a great way of leading into another

suggestion, a more leading suggestion - you see Pace and lead, pace and lead)

...and without hypnotising you or doing anything weird here's, and this is going to sound very strange right? but just

go with me... (More embedded suggestions - GO WITH ME etc)

I would touch you on that hand and when I do (slightly emphasised on the `do')

the hand will lift , (Really - you mean its not stuck - that's the thing about this glue its real sticky but can be unstuck real fast)

alright?...and it will be free but at the same moment (very brief pause) (Checks its all ok with OLGA and pauses expectantly

- gets result)

the reason why it lifts up is that your NAME (emphasised)

will disappear from your mind... (Double bind - combined with direct command - as it lifts your name will disappear from your

mind)

you know what its like when you have something really obvious on the tip of your tongue that you know that you

should know (Reminds her of times when it is difficult to recall something i.e. naturally occurring amnesia - this creates

amnesia) and the more that you try and remember it the more impossible it is to recall?... (You know this one by

now!)(Olga says yeah) ...yeah with tunes and peoples NAMES (slightly emphasised)

and that sort of thing... (Great agreement more from OLGA)

this is SO (emphasised ) weird but without hypnotising you or doing anything strange I touch you there

your hand LIFTS (emphasised) ...look at me what was your name?... (What was your name implies that it is already

forgotten. What is your name would probably not be as effective - check the language in the train memory swipe I bet it is

similar)(Olga pauses for a few seconds then laughs) ...what was your name?... (She laughs saying she can't remember)

...now what's it like not knowing what your name is? (After many attempts to recall her name Derren

intervenes) ...alright I'll tap you on the head it will come back...just say it alright?...there you go... (she instantly

recalls her name...Derren then goes into

another effect where he guesses what Olga is

thinking of...)getting this kind of dramatic effect like

hand stuck or arm levitation is one of the easiest things to do

hypnotically - expect success - study the language patterns.

A well known phrase that is useful to keep in mind from Ormond McGill stage

hypnotism is this When the will and imagination are at play the imagination wins

every time. Meaning if I put a scaffold board on the ground and 5 grand on the

end of it you for you to keep if you walk that board - your will would probably get you

there. If I put it 100 ft up yourimagination would kick in that you might fall off - and you

would. Inn the same way if there is the slightest thought in Olga's mind that Derren can

stick her hand then it will stick. Lets face it this is Derren so that doubt it gonna be there.

However just telling people you are a hypnotist or can hypnotise them is enough to create

this doubt.

THE LOSING HAND

The Illusion

See MC1, The Gamblers (Part 2): The losing hand

You may wish to pay close attention to:

Where did the deck come from?

What cards are on the table?

How are they collected?

To where in the deck are the 'tabled' cards returned?

What are the top 10 cards on the deck?

The Trick

Take from the deck the following cards:

K K K A A A 7 7 7 Q (suits are irrelevant)

Actually, pretty much any three prials and odd card will work, but these cards create quite a big psychological impact.

I say "take", it would probably be more convincing to deal them randomly from the top of a stacked deck.

Part 1:

Shuffle the cards so that the Q is the top (or second card) on the pile.

Draw two cards from the top of the pile and show the BACKS to the player.

Tell him to pick a card

If he chooses the Queen: tell him he is choosing which cards to keep

If he chooses the other card: tell him he is choosing which cards to discard

You *may* now stick to this. I.e.. Give/Keep every card he points to

Mathematics will ensure you a winning hand.

Part 2:

Collect the cards, again bringing the Queen to the top of the deck

Deal the Queen to the player and the next card to yourself

Present the cards (face down) one at a time, and tell the player that he make take or reject each card that is offered

Allow him to keep all cards he selects until he has five cards in front of him

You keep all others

Mathematics will ensure you a winning hand.

Part 3:

Collect the cards, again bringing the Queen to the top of the deck

Deal the Queen to the player and the next card to yourself

Present the cards (face up) one at a time, and tell the player that he make take or reject each card hat is shown

Allow him to keep all cards he selects until he has five cards in front of him

You keep all others

Mathematics will ensure you a winning hand.

Afterthoughts

There are a thousand ways to get the Queen to the top of the deck, and anyone with a copy of Derren Brown's - "The Devil's

Picturebook" will know straight off how Derren Brown achieves it. The overall give away was that Derren Brown always gets to

choose the first card. So in my opinion, covering this fact is possibly the most important part of the presentation.
