Mindreading or Body Language?

Postby jakubr » Nov 1st, '11, 09:04



Hi guys!

So I'm new to these these forums, and I thought as a part of introduction, I'll show you this quick video of me doing some of my favourite
things with people on the street. It's a mindreading effect, when you guess peoples thoughts through the body language. As you can see,
my interest is mainly in mentalism :)

Very nice. It looked to me like the guy in green spoke more Hebrew than English, so very well done.

Thanks! Yes, guy in green didn't speak English very well, but it was enough.

:oops: as I understood the first post it seemed you were looking for ways of doing the bit in the video. . . pardon, my brain must have shorted out on what's said.

I thought it was a very good video.I like the fact that there was an intro too explaining what you were doing rather than just doing ''tricks''.
