This show (Fridays, Ch4 in UK but possibly also shown in other countries) fascinates me. Not only does he seem to combine hypnosis, magic and mind-control but you can actually see him doing it (eg, the scene last week where he walked up to a bloke, asked him directions, then asked him to give him his watch and wallet. The bloke not only did it, but walked away!) How DOES he do these `tricks`? Some cynics say that all the tricks are `fixed` and that he actually knows the `volunteers` ; what do others think?
