I'm just wondering if anybody watched this and actually got stuck to their seat by watching his "subliminal film", I'm guessing it's mostly people in the Uk who saw this (not sure what other countries get channel 4) But if you missed it you can watch it here.

So did you get stuck?

yea, well he claims so. But actually he is nothing more than a very good illusionist and magician.

It was a fucking waste of time. Complete bullshit. I'm sick of his shit. Seriously- what a fucking tool.

I've had enough!!! It's all fake, and the only people dumb enough to fall for it are the fucking idiots that go on Jeremy Kyle.

I've seen his series and his full-length releases and he's totally awesome. I mean, it sounds strange but he is the master of subliminal messages.

Those of you who trust me not to be the usual gullible noob, should check him out, check wikipedia for his series and download some episodes, nothing to lose. It's not staged.

His new stuff is actually more of the same shit he did before, just wrapped up in a different way.

I didn't get stuck to my seat but it was kind of interesting seeing what he was attempting to do, alot of it has to do with NLP and how you can train somebody to behave in a certain way by using a few simple techniques. In this case he used a reienforcement technique by repeating certain words over and over again along with trying to make you believe something was going to happen by watching his video, in fact this goes on throughout the whole show. It actually had fuck all to do with the "subliminal video" the only thing that was designed to do was maybe give you the feeling of sinking into your chair, similar to the feeling people get when they get motion sickness from playing a video game, it was nothing more than an optical illusion.

He is neither a illusionist nor a magician, If you understand what he is doing then you are able to appreciate it more.

However the lotto thing was utter bullshit though and he even admits at the end it was a trick but thats the most illusionist type thing he has ever done.

Don't think i'll bother watching him then, it seems he attracts the same sort of people that watch the X-factor and Big Brother Smile You know the sort I mean!
