[Jack_]

http://derrenbrown.co.uk/blog/2010/09/derren-brown-special-hero-30000-feet/

Wednesday @ 10PM on C4.

Really excited for this. Derren never fails to impress.

[Vicky.]

I love Derren Brown so much :)

[Lee.]

This should be good. Derren Brown amazes me!

[Ramsay]

hes greaaat

[Boothy]

He was good until he told me I was going to get stuck to my chair and then I didn't.

[Vicky.]

He was good until he told me I was going to get stuck to my chair and then I didn't.

Haha, that happened to my mother in law.

Me and Gav were watching it and got quite pissed off that we didnt get stuck, then we turned round to see Lily panicking like hell because she couldn't get up. It was cruel...but we found it so funny :laugh:

[King Gizzard]

Suxxx

[GypsyGoth]

I hope I remember this is on.

[InOne]

I remember the roulette wheel fail, I was pretty shocked lol

[LaLaLand]

I'm excited to see this!

My sister's abstaining however, she's flying to Turkey on Thursday a.m. and the sight of a plane falling out of the sky is the last thing she wants rofl.

[Beastie]

Can't wait :D

[Jordan.]

He was good until he told me I was going to get stuck to my chair and then I didn't.

:laugh2:

Same here.

[Jack_]

I hope I remember this is on.

You should do, it's sandwiched inbetween the two BB Eviction shows :p

[Tom]

Haha, that happened to my mother in law.

Me and Gav were watching it and got quite pissed off that we didnt get stuck, then we turned round to see Lily panicking like hell because she couldn't get up. It was cruel...but we found it so funny :laugh:

I'm convinced that was self fulfilling prophecy. The whole thing was "how to control the nation" not "how to get stuck to your chair" and he did that by default

I'll be watching tomorrow though, I think he's brilliant. I'm seeing him live next time he goes on tour

[Shardlake]

I remember the roulette wheel fail, I was pretty shocked lol

That just went to show that he's genuine imo. No Las Vegas style Illusionist would have dared do that live without first setting up that they would come out looking like a genius. He failed and he took it on the chin.

The lottery show he did still makes me laugh, there were people all over the place that tuned in expecting him to reveal some simple brilliant way to win loads of money with a earth shattering system, and he just babbled on confusing the hell out of people :joker:

[Shardlake]

I'm convinced that was self fulfilling prophecy. The whole thing was "how to control the nation" not "how to get stuck to your chair" and he did that by default

Thats exactly how I saw it and how I see a lot of his stuff. His thing is 'mind control' and he would have had millions of people doing every single thing he asked them to at the exact same time.

He is the best showman I have seen in my lifetime.

[Callum]

Cannot wait for this, looks like his best show yet!

[Shardlake]

This is one of his best ever shows and shows just how good he is at what he does.

bQKHap8DAbM&feature=related&has_verified=1

The part going into the halfway interval is just pure genius and baffled everyone watching (I saw him do it live)

[Jack_]

On in just over an hour. Cannot wait :D

[Rob]

looking forward to this :)

[Shardlake]

On in just over an hour. Cannot wait :D

whats that bloody show thats on ch 4 before it? Pain in the ass!
:joker:

[Vicky.]

I think it was all psychological stuff. If you believed it or got a bit scared incase it happened...

If you were in any way skeptical...or really over the top wanting to be stuck, it didn't.

Seemed to work most on impressionable people. The callers who rang in were saying about their kids and that.

[Vicky.]

That just went to show that he's genuine imo. No Las Vegas style Illusionist would have dared do that live without first setting up that they would come out looking like a genius. He failed and he took it on the chin.

I really liked the horse racing system one.

Everyone was so confused...and thinking there was really some way to cheat at the races...and then he revealed how he did it...yeah, he did have a system, but I doubt anyone would have guessed what it was :laugh:

[Ninastar]

ugh his voice makes me wanna cut people

[Jamietwo]

apparently he is a gay, i'd give him one

[GypsyGoth]

ugh his voice makes me wanna cut people

That's cause you're hypnotised and you don't know it.

[Beastie]

Derren Brown :love:

[King Gizzard]

Is this just another show where he explains alot of irrelevant stuff for most of the show then have the actually experiment for 2 minutes at the end?

[Beastie]

HAHAHA I have that mirror in my bedroom :)

[GypsyGoth]

How can Matt not see the cameras?

[Ramsay]

How can Matt not see the cameras?

their tiny

[Saph]

lmao that poor man

[GypsyGoth]

their tiny

Thanks.

[Ninastar]

That's cause you're hypnotised and you don't know it.

that would explain why i just put a spider in your bed without knowing

[King Gizzard]

The last thing a burgular would ask you is what you do for a living

rofl

[GypsyGoth]

that would explain why i just put a spider in your bed without knowing

I love them, so I hope it was a sexy one :p

[Saph]

I think this is fake :/ he wouldnt sit and play with a friggin jack in the box on his doorstep :s

[GypsyGoth]

This is very creepy.

[BringItOn]

I think this is fake :/ he wouldnt sit and play with a friggin jack in the box on his doorstep :s

I was thinking that, who knows?

[Ninastar]

I love them, so I hope it was a sexy one :p

well I touched it so it just turned sexy

[Saph]

LOL this is the strangest show ever. I dont know whether to beleive it or not Dx

[Chuckyegg]

Mat has a very suggestible personality. Derren think we do too. This is all a massive lie. I know how TV works. I've been watching for 43 years. It's obscene.

[Saph]

lmfao this is fake. I just decided xP

[Jordan.]

Did he just magic pen and paper? UMG.

[Chuckyegg]

lmfao this is fake. I just decided xP

So contrived!

[GypsyGoth]

well I touched it so it just turned sexy

:laugh2:

[Maia]

It does seem a bit staged...How can they follow him around with cameras without him knowing?

[King Gizzard]

If this did turn out to be true and he didnt know anything about it, surely he could just sue them?

[ILoveTRW]

They first 45 minutes of any Darren Brown show are always a whole charade, all it is is a build up for the views.
He could do what he is going to do with this man without this whole 30 days thing.

[GypsyGoth]

If I ever see Matt, I'm going to tell him he owes me moeny :D

[Saph]

So contrived!

contrived? what does that mean? :3

[Chuckyegg]

he's doing exactly what is expected of him.......how convenient. it must be Derren's mastery of the human condition.

[King Gizzard]

They first 45 minutes of any Darren Brown show are always a whole charade, all it is is a build up for the views.
He could do what he is going to do with this man without this whole 30 days thing.

Most of his shows are like that

Just feeds the audience alot of crappy jargon that doesnt make much sense whatsoever but they ll believe it because they think hes clever

[Chuckyegg]

contrived? what does that mean? :3

Planned

[Saph]

Planned

ooh :hugesmile: yeah i agree, its funny watching it just to watch its stupidness.

[Saph]

What if Matt was watching big brother when they spoke to Derren Brown? xD

[Saph]

lmao at his eyes then

[Joe.]

Lmao this is definatly staged. Pmsl.

[GypsyGoth]

:shocked:

[BringItOn]

this show is weird

[Chuckyegg]

feel the power matt, feeeel the power

[Saph]

I hope he crashes this plane lol

[Ninastar]

he is scary. seriously he is more scary than the crocodile thing

[GypsyGoth]

Derren made it rain.

[King Gizzard]

Donnie Darko-ey.

[Joe.]

Seriously who believes this is real!

[Saph]

Derren made it rain.

He's Jesus!

Makosi got the wrong magician :o

[Chuckyegg]

If he can't even grow back his own male pattern baldness.......

[Chuckyegg]

In my house, we often use Derren Brown as rhyming slang.

I'm just going for a quick Derren Brown.

[Jamietwo]

really that's so interesting! where did you meet? was it in a gay bar or sauna or something? maybe he wasn't in the mood for sex or something or maybe he's got a bf he might have been nervous. he does do that cute little nervous nod thing.

[GypsyGoth]

Matt is a thief!!

[Ninastar]

this show is faker than my fake louis vuitton bag

[King Gizzard]

Seriously just stop copying ****ing donnie darko

[GypsyGoth]

this show is faker than my fake louis vuitton bag

:laugh3:

[Saph]

lol I cant beleive this show xD

[Chuckyegg]

really that's so interesting! where did you meet? was it in a gay bar or sauna or something? maybe he wasn't in the mood for sex or something or maybe he's got a bf he might have been nervous. he does do that cute little nervous nod thing.

At my friends sisters party, it was intimate. he must have a BF. that's the only way he would have turned me down. lol

[Saph]

Where'd mr taxi driver go? xD

[Beastie]

Oh my god.. will he get caught? lol :laugh:

[Joe.]

Lmao! That police house thing was fake- obvs!

[Beastie]

Nice house.

[Chuckyegg]

Soon he's going to have to choose between being a bystander or a bycicle.

[GypsyGoth]

I hope Matt dies at the end of the show.

[Saph]

Why are big brother making us suffer through this program D;

[Shardlake]

i'm finding this a little difficult to believe......

[Jordan.]

I hope Matt dies at the end of the show.

:laugh:

[Chuckyegg]

I hope Matt dies at the end of the show.

Oh dear me. That's harsh.

[Saph]

I hope Matt dies at the end of the show.

lol at least it would make it worth while

[Ninastar]

I hope Matt dies at the end of the show.

omfg same lmao

[Chuckyegg]

Perhaps it's not about Matt.....it's about us, the ones watching it. What is Derren installing in my head?

[Chuckyegg]

don't wish someone dead ffs!!

[Jamietwo]

At my friends sisters party, it was intimate. he must have a BF. that's the only way he would have turned me down. lol

well it's his loss i guess, but some gays do have strange taste, like i fancied this guy once for years but he was all aloof and stuff and then i met him years later and he was with this massively fat ginger bald american who looked like a pig, but there still together and stuff. i think the big ginger guy dominates him or something. ...wonder what derrens bf is like....still it's cool you had an intimate encounter with him.

[King Gizzard]

Its basically a drama and they are succeeding by getting a lot of viewers.

[Saph]

Imagen if we get Derren Browns voice calling us at night, asking us to come outside :o

[Chuckyegg]

Well if he can do all that to someones head....imagine what he can do to your winky.

[Saph]

This is getting faker and faker xD

[Chuckyegg]

Imagen if we get Derren Browns voice calling us at night, asking us to come outside :o

In his dreams.

[Malza]

I hope Matt dies at the end of the show.

That would at last make it worth watching it... It's really ridiculous so far


.

[GypsyGoth]

Hahahah this is mad.

[Saph]

If he went door to door on my street he'd probably have been knifed lmao

[Chuckyegg]

right on cue....the whole street has turned up. I cant stop laughing....this is fiction.

[Jamietwo]

Well if he can do all that to someones head....imagine what he can do to your winky.

yeah that's what i reckon, i wonder if he is top or bottom. i bet he's got a right greedy pulsating bum hole with inner muscle control suction power,,,mmmm

[Chuckyegg]

yeah that's what i reckon, i wonder if he is top or bottom. i bet he's got a right greedy pulsating bum hole with inner muscle control suction power,,,mmmm

he's versatile but prefers to be bottom....when he's on his back, it hides the male pattern baldness.

[Jamietwo]

he's versatile but prefers to be bottom

wow did he tell you that!

[Chuckyegg]

wow did he tell you that!

you can see it in his eyes

[BringItOn]

how horrible!

[Jordan.]

A train runs him over. :o

[Chuckyegg]

oh no i'm turning it off....i can't handle this bit, it's stressing me out

[Joe.]

Lmao. Is this a dream?

[GiRTh]

A train runs him over. :o^hope so

[Joe.]

That train is INCREDIBLY SLOW!!

[Ninastar]

pmsl i wish it ran him over

[Joe.]

He loves the jack in the boxes. Pmsl at this fake fail.

[GypsyGoth]

pmsl i wish it ran him over

:laugh2: I was scared for him.

[Malza]

Boring...

But Matt on the top of a skyscraper, push him, and see if he can fly (he could for sure if only Darren Brown had told him)

[Malza]

:laugh2: I was scared for him.

Him... the train driver? :D

[Saph]

This is worse than when Chris Angel jumped of a small building with a safety harness xD

[Malza]

At last Matt has moved out from his mum... hooray



.

[Jamietwo]

you can see it in his eyes yeah i reckon so too....wow fancy that. i'm gonna do a search see if theres a pic of his bf anywhere

[Ninastar]

:laugh2: I was scared for him.

i was thinking "sorry but what kind of train goes this slow"

[ILoveTRW]

What I don't understand is this person who is unwilling to make any risks, but is quite happy to be on a national tv game show.

[Saph]

That slut is trying to seduce Matt!

[Ninastar]

aw i feel really bad for him. I hope he doesnt die

[Firewire]

He's not gonna die Caitlin.

[Saph]

26 minutes? So... its not live :/

[Ninastar]

That slut is trying to seduce Matt!

sorry I cant help it. he is hot!!
He's not gonna die Caitlin.

*glares*

[Saph]

This is to laughable LOL

[Ninastar]

aw the poor people on the plane. or are they all actors?

[Saph]

lmao that womans fake reaction

[GypsyGoth]

aw the poor people on the plane. or are they all actors?

Yep, they all actors, apart from Matt.

[Ninastar]

OH COME ON!!!! x

[King Gizzard]

You'd think the passengers would be alot more scared then that ffs

At least make it believable derren, you twat.

[Saph]

WTH? So he didnt even fly the plane??!

[Ninastar]

Yep, they all actors, apart from Matt.

oh.


thats explains alot

[Malza]

Yep, they all actors, apart from Matt.

Ha ha...

[BringItOn]

I just want BB to start now

[Shardlake]

This is the worst of his shows i've seen by a mile, stretches believability a little to far

[Shardlake]

You'd think the passengers would be alot more scared then that ffs

At least make it believable derren, you twat.

yea....
:joker:

[Maia]

Yep, they all actors, apart from Matt.

And even that's debatable.

[Jordan.]

Yep, they all actors, apart from Matt.

He was on Holby City last week.

[Saph]

LMAO the captain is just dead next to him xD

[King Gizzard]

Stupid idiots made everyone think it was going to be a real plane at the end of the show

If id of known that at the start I wouldn't of watchted it.

[Vicky.]

VERY disappointed in this. And I usually love derren :(

[Malza]

Good that Matt will not notice that it is suddenly dark outside :crazy:

[BringItOn]

ZZzzzzz
"we want big brother!"

[Malza]

LMAO the captain is just dead next to him xD

Lucky him

[Joe.]

This is stupid. All the ads and stuff made out he was gonna be flying a proper plane!

[Beastie]

Derren's older stuff is better but hey ho! lol

[Ninastar]

if it blew up after all this i would die of laughter

[Saph]

I have to go to bed now D; I really cnt stay up any longer >:l thankyou Derren Brown for ruining my evening!

[GypsyGoth]

I'm stuck in my chair :bawling:

[Saph]

So proud of you? Err yh you ****ing wish ¬_¬

[Ninastar]

I'm stuck in my chair :bawling:

sorry that was me. The voices told me to do it

[Firewire]

I'm stuck in my chair :bawling:

You're stuck in your chair? This isn't that show Claudia! :tongue:

[Omen]

I'm stuck in my chair :bawling:

Careful where you put your chewing gum!

[Saph]

Oh give me a break this ending is just pathetic lmao xD

[King Gizzard]

I want my hour back.

[GypsyGoth]

sorry that was me. The voices told me to do it

bitch

You're stuck in your chair? This isn't that show Claudia! :tongue:

:laugh:

[Saph]

abit weird to have this sort of program so close to 9/11? :s

[Shardlake]

VERY disappointed in this. And I usually love derren :(

x2

[Malza]

WOW, that was incredibly bad



.

[BringItOn]

****.

[Ninastar]

OMFG ITS 8/9/10 11:12

noo I was late :'(

[Beastie]

The time is "8,9,10,11,12"

Ooo so will there be another Derren Brown show in 30 days time?

[Maia]

Well that was disappointing. I was expecting a live aeroplane landing or something and he was just at that hangar for nothing.

[Chuckyegg]

i wouldn't object to being spitroasted by Matt and Derren (or maybe matt and the Van Driver)

[Ninastar]

bitch



:laugh:
you love it :love:

[Shardlake]

i wouldn't object to being spitroasted by Matt and Derren (or maybe matt and the Van Driver)

:shocked::joker:

[ILoveTRW]

Well I might as well say it,
FAIL

[Firewire]

Well that was disappointing. I was expecting a live aeroplane landing or something and he was just at that hangar for nothing.

They wouldn't be allowed to do that though.

[King Gizzard]

ROFL at some of the tweets I'm reading

''You are such an ispiration Derren''

[King Gizzard]

Yeah, the plane in the background during bb, false advertising.

[Chuckyegg]

I bet he gave that bird of his a couple of good ones during his HERO week. I bet he landed his plane on her runway.

[Callum]

I thought it was brilliant personally.

[King Gizzard]

You didn't believe it though..did you?

Please say no please say no

[Jack_]

I thought it was great. Maybe a bit unbelievable but then again most of Derren's shows are, let's be honest.

Regardless of whether it was staged or not, it was a great show and once again Derren delivered.

The time is "8,9,10,11,12"

Ooo so will there be another Derren Brown show in 30 days time?

As far as I'm aware, yes.

[Niamh.]

Is there people out there who actually believe that the guy landing the plane wasn't involved?

[Sunday]

We said while watching it that we thought it was all one big act, it was very wooden acting by the young guy too, but it kept me gripped just the same.

[Tom]

I've just watched it. It might be fake, it might be real. We'll never know. Derren has delivered yet again and he never fails to get people talking about his shows. I do agree that it was set up, but will it stop me watching next month? Definitely not, and I bet thats the same for loads of people

[Beastie]

This.

Derren IS and will ALWAYS remain a LEGEND. :love:

I have series 1 and 2 on DVD.. Derren Brown: Trick of the Mind! :)

[Jack_]

I read a post on DS earlier where the poster was saying the purpose of it might just've been a motivational show for people with low self confidence.

And you can't argue with the principle of that, really, regardless of whether it's fake or not.

[Mac Hiavellian]

This show was anticlimatic. I realise they wouldn't have actually let some guy land a plane live on TV, and I realise what the message was but it really did not need to be live!

I said this to a few people already that him standing in front of the plane engines was just distracting and the only thing that had a (marginal) impact about being live was when he said "It's 8/9/10 and 11:12pm"

[Angus]

I found the whole thing mildly entertaining but I just couldn't engage with it at all. I just could not suspend my belief long enough to accept that this guy was so malleable and suggestible that he could walk out of his house in the middle of the night, have a conversation with Derren Brown, go back to bed and think it was all a dream.

If Derren Brown had such powers of suggestion he should immediately be seconded to MI5, or be employed by the government as a propaganda minister, or train spies for covert missions or.....you get the picture.

Maybe he does all that during the weekend.

You're right though. I like the premise of it but it wasn't executed that well and him constantly hypnotizing people stretches believability
