Dude I LOVE Derren Brown -
He's a huge inspiration to me actually.
I have a whole Drills section dedicated to performing some of his mind reading effects (Expanded Skills Drillset Sequence #1: Advanced Tactics: You can learn cold-reading abilities bordering on the realm of psychic meanwhile building a profound connection with a woman)
I drill the guys to the point of duplicating exactly the mindreading that he does in his "pick-up" video - have you guys seen that one?
It's funny, it seems pretty impossible the first day, but by day three, all of my students were pretty much able to do it without a problem...
Russian Scam is a great one - for many people, that's their favorite Derren brown video - his mirroring is on point - and then check out how he escalates compliance immediately once he is given just a tiny bit - he's got a great rhythm. The guy holds his water (window of opportunity) then BAM - gets his watch, his wallet, etc while the guy's conscious mind is preoccupied....
