I once stubbed my toe on the serrated cutting edge of a brown tape dispensing gun. Result: a constant drip drip drip of claret.

Ah but my good friends, nothing comes close to the pain felt when walking bare footed through ones workshop and treading upon a barbed fishing hook.

There goes my whole act! :twisted:


It doesn't help that the majority of Derrens earlier work is straight out of Corinda

Instead of copying Derren, why don't some of these attention seekers just nail their b0ll0cks to a block of wood on stage? I don't think that's done before and it'd certainly hurt more than walking on Lego which an audience would find stupid and laughable.

It seems people want to be just like Derren but without any hint of originality. He's spawned tons of Oasis rather than Beatles...

You do know that I was kidding about performing walking on Lego, right?

In that case I'll have that then!

I'm going to walk across Lego with my balls nailed to a board while pushing fish hooks into my eyeballs and carrying a baby to bed.

If anyone copies that, expect a call from my lawyer!! :twisted:

Hey everybody! :D

I know this is not related with the stunt you're talking about but...
The first trick of the show which is the one where he asks a woman from the audience to think of an animal and then she answers "mouse" and derren says that everyone else would be thinking of an elephant... that one was simply amazing. I've thought of an elephant and everyone in my family thought the same.
