Mind Control with Derren Brown -- An early look
by Adam Finley, posted Jul 25th 2007 4:01PM
There are a lot of so-called "psychics" and "mediums" on television, but very few of them admit they're full of crap.
That's why I like Derren Brown. Using a mix of psychology and manipulation, he gets ordinary folks to do things they wouldn't normally do. Brown does not claim to be psychic, or to possess supernatural abilities, he simply has a knack for getting inside a person's head.
He's already made a name for himself in his native U.K., performing such stunts as playing Russian roulette on live television and convincing one person they had been transported into a zombie video game.
