Hi,
I'm not saying the whole thing is a fake on that alone, and i'm sorry to hijack your interesting thread. All I'm saying is that I have seen that one trick many times, and indeed the trick has been explained to me. So why put this trick in his video?

I would be willing to bet that if he was put in a rigorously controlled scientific setting, he wouldn't be able to reproduce these results.

Or more to the point, I'd be willing to bet he wouldn't be willing to be tested in a rigorously controlled scientific setting.

The newspaper thing and the LED thing are impressive. The shocks people felt are NOT.

Derren brown can do something similar:

Weird. Is this just some hyper-suggestive state thing, or what is going on, exactly? Specifically the psychic thing, but the one-inch punch seems similar.

Actually, the one-inch punch is really just a matter of pushing a guy pretty hard near his center of mass and knocking him over. Like how you can hold someone in a chair by placing a single finger on their forehead.

I wasn't implying it was fake, merely that it wasn't mystical. Still plenty awesome.
