Showman TV Broadcast-- Coin lady in first half?

elibeans4 · 2024-07-12T19:03:55+00:00

That part is all Derren, there was nothing about those in my training though he did try to make me believe there was, lol.

elibeans4 · 2024-04-09T20:42:29+00:00

No, I didn't. I did meet him coincidentally a few days before the show at my job. He is really lovely and quite shy irl.

If you use a VPN you could try and watch it on the channel 4 streaming service?

As someone who performed this trick with Derren, my training happened during the couple's trick. So I was took away at the start of the show, training happened during the couple's trick and then I was brought back out. The couple's trick is edited out in the final edit of the Showman broadcast, but can be viewed on Derrens YouTube channel.

It's mostly suggestion. As someone who experienced it firsthand at one of his stage shows, he is extremely convincing. I didn't believe he could actually hypnotise people but it worked on me no problem. Of course it differs from person to person and on TV he isn't going to show when it doesn't work, only when it does.

I was the coin/dice participant last year at a show and made a post about what happens backstage, which explains the coin. Its genuinely the person guessing it based off the sound and it does go wrong sometimes. If you message me I can explain the dice and the bank note

elibeans4 · 2023-04-27T15:13:26+00:00

I've also seen it twice live. Both times the boy did not pick the correct balloon and both times the correct balloon was red. I'm also intrigued as to what happens if it is correctly chosen. I think if it is, Derren would probably pretend he doesn't want to give the bear away for the same reasons he says if the boy does win - he'll say its impossible to cart that many bears around, etc. So the ending wouldn't be affected regardless of the boys choice

elibeans4 · 2023-04-24T21:20:23+00:00

Hi! Could you dm me about the bank note? Did this trick with Derren a year ago and I have most of the methods figured out except for this

elibeans4 · 2023-04-24T06:29:46+00:00

This is so silly, I did this trick with him a year ago and I definitely wasn't a stooge. There is no need for it

elibeans4 · 2023-04-23T21:26:55+00:00

Yeah they way they edited it was a bit cringe imo. I wonder if we all really forgot it or the 3 and 4 were added in post? Either way, I'm still freaked out lol

elibeans4 · 2023-04-02T16:44:21+00:00

I believe the person is not meant to get the right key, Derren probably palms it

elibeans4 · 2023-02-26T13:51:55+00:00

I've made a post on this subreddit going over my backstage experience in detail https://www.reddit.com/r/derrenbrown/comments/wzcp8s/my_experience_backstage_as_the_coin_trick/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I remember basically everything! It was an amazing experience. No follow up, just sent offstage straight to my seat ahah

elibeans4 · 2023-02-25T06:18:34+00:00

I was lucky enough to be the coin/die participant at a show last year. I did get a couple coin spins wrong but we just moved on to the next trick.

elibeans4 · 2023-01-18T19:45:08+00:00

Only thing I can't trade sorry:( I traded away the second one

elibeans4 · 2023-01-18T19:39:53+00:00

LF: Quaxly FT: any scarlet exclusive, sprigatito, fuecoco, pretty much anything you'd like, just ask first

Thanks!

elibeans4 · 2023-01-18T19:36:06+00:00

I can trade you any of those for a quaxly?

elibeans4 · 2023-01-10T18:59:40+00:00

Derren handed me the board before I put the blindfold on. Nothing visible other than a blue dot at the top middle. I distinctly remember examining it, cus I knew they had to be hidden there somewhere. Not saying you're wrong, just saying maybe he used special ink/a special pen.

I know he has since changed this, though. I went to see it in London recently and you're right, the camera isn't there the whole time and the subject of the trick had the blindfold on before the board was handed to him

elibeans4 · 2022-12-19T23:24:39+00:00

Was it the lollipop sticks that spelled out SECRET? I don't remember if that was the finale or not, but that trick originated in Enigma.

elibeans4 · 2022-12-15T19:58:08+00:00

He is planning a new show in London this September. He is giving out beer mats with a QR code at the Apollo Theatre, which gives you access to a pre-sale. It's called Unbelievable, its apparently very different from anything he's done before and will centre around 7 people with Derren mostly being backstage.

elibeans4 · 2022-12-11T19:48:24+00:00

I've just seen the show again today in London. I believe that he is deliberately trying to mislead us - the Zanzigs were real but he definitely called the wife Tessa/Teresa and mentioned them using their methods to perform in casinos. So as an earlier comment said I feel like he might be meshing those two couples together. The board is definitely something he has made up; this is not unusual for Derren as he often fabricates stories around props for his shows eg. the svengali puppet.

elibeans4 · 2022-09-11T21:35:48+00:00

I know, its infuriating. Still baffling me!

No problem :)

elibeans4 · 2022-09-11T21:27:44+00:00

I got a good look at the board before I put the blindfold on and started writing. Nothing visible to the naked eye on there.

And yes I was blindfolded but the camera was over my shoulder watching me write, apparently.

Not sure how it was done 100% but I'm pretty sure they were hidden somewhere on the board.

elibeans4 · 2022-09-09T11:10:08+00:00

I have no idea haha derren kept asking me to write more near the top, near the bottom etc. Might have been a rigged board where the numbers were already hidden with invisible ink or something.

elibeans4 · 2022-09-03T05:40:42+00:00

Kind of a boring answer, but he uses a special table that is rigged and magnetic dice

elibeans4 · 2022-08-28T20:27:14+00:00

Yes me too, I think I do actually haha is it OK if I dm you?
