derren brown

[DaRkEnEdStAr]

having been a fan of his for years , he has a show now on the US scifi channel .
according to scfi us "a sciFi channel original series" hmm... pretty funny since that that series was done by channel 4 in the UK (the same episodes etc)

anyway i advise anyone who hasn`t heard of him to watch him ... or go to youtube

guy is amazing

I quite liked him

Never thought to look for him on you tube before but will now :beer:

has the first episode already aired? I think I might have missed it... really looking forward to it.

If he's as amazing as Criss Angel (Mindfreak is his show), I'll be happy.

i have heard a lot about criss angel , and i especially heard a "rumour" that he uses actors ? (wtf ?) what is the point of using actors .... derren brown does not use actors , except when he does his tricks on professional actors e.g. Simon Pegg

i believe the first episode has aired .. Some of his feats include beating 8 grand masters of chess at the same time , going on a train and making [his victims , hehe] forget wich station they were supposed to get off , asking someone to think of a memory , decpihering that memory in small amount of time ... or convincing 5 or 6 middle class "urbanites" to commit armed robbery through suggestion etc ...
