Derren Brown supposedly left viewers stuck to their seat during his latest stunt
If you get Channel 4 in the UK you may have watched Derren Brown: Control the nation on Friday night. I myself love subliminal techniques, making you think or do something without actually being told. A classic subliminal technique is advertising, you don’t know it but stunts like feeling hungry after watching a food commercial. I’ve done it many of times where your perfectly fine watching tv and then bam, you see a cereal commercial. Next minute I’m raiding the fridge looking for milk for my cereal. OK this isn’t directly subliminal but you don’t know your really doing it. Its just impulses triggers a chain of events.
I first knew about subliminal techniques when my old employer tried getting me to add *flash* words on the homepage of his business site. Adding words such as ‘Call’ & ‘Professional’. Funnily enough the business was a success. I dived into research as its in fact illegal to do as its against human rights, so I was surprised it was to be shown on TV live (or was it).
Please read the whole article before you rush to the video as it probably wont work.
