nice and slick
Everything happening backwards. Like the rotor jewl of the time piece is going back :p
I can’t wait to see this. I hope it lives up to anticipation
!
haha that’s so cool.. didn’t even realise it was in reverse until i’d watched it about 10 times ^_^
also saw the sneeky peak at the camera
can’t wait.
Backwards, right? Is that why man in background on second vid is walking strangely?
..apart from the clips are played backward?
It looks like it was played back in reverse.
nice, can’t wait to hear more about this. And they are backwards, was kind of obvious in the one with the jacket. Now I just hope I’ll be able to see the full Trailer in Germany
The Vimeo player won’t let me follow your instruction.
Especially now I have seen the other 2!
I am lactating right now!
REWIND…
I wonder if I should record it and rewind the trailer??
Cant wait to c it.
3 seconds in there seems to be something behind ur head, triangular?
could be a light on the side of the building tho
REWIND.
I wonder how long it took Derren to perfect backwards performance. Not to mention how many takes. I mean, we knew he was dedicated from the eight hours of coin-tossing for the System, but learning a forwards card riffle drop backwards while making it look forwards? Wow
Sabre: Could be a triangle?
I am wishing I had a TV recorder right now.
R E W I N D ??
I love these little idents. One thing I did notice was that they popped up on Channel 4 practically every hour at around the same time (yes, I do realise how sad that sounds). But I just think they’re great to watch.
Can’t wait for the actual trailer tonight!! I shall endeavour to keep my eyes peeled and try and spot anything….
LC x
REWIIIND
Clever. Very clever.
rewind? there is no way its that simple….is there? urm, no im still guessing not…? bugger my head hurts
In the morning, instead of dressing up… Derren is stripping?
Why are there some random capitals in the post??
I hope phillis or some of you oveR there are kind Enough to record/post it someWhere so that us amerIcan fans can see…. You think you’re all aNxious…. I’ll probably have to wait a Day later to see anything
Yes Phillis we will tape it and rewind, or still it backwards in slow mo – Are we doing as we are told?
What do you mean it premiers tonight?
It’s been on all week!
In this one there seems to be something behind his head but on the others there isn’t… hmmmm
The Events are going to be great ^-^
Nicely done with the ‘subliminal’ capitals in the text. Liking the backwards video.
Hmmm…
I think I get the message guys
Got it a while ago actually, just been doing masses of reading whilst not having sleep!
Bah! Who needs it every night in ‘ytilaer’ anyway.
BTW: Did anyone see the ‘drac’?
My computer plays ‘eht’ vids all jumpy and it isn’t easy to ees.
These are the teaser clips again, the trailer will be shown tonight on 4
Rewind….
The “hidden” capital letters have been there for a few posts.
In two others, the letters say “ROTOR”: a palindrome (that you can read from the beggining or from the end – which is close to the theme of the videos…).
Or mamybe it stands for “rot or….” “…rewind” = rewinding is not rotting, so it’s living, going foreward….
Am I overthinking? lol
the “thing” behind His head is realy wired. it clearly isn’t in the first clip. see comparison here: http://i28.tinypic.com/25sblut.gif
It clearly says rewind in the post but not many of us have the ablility to rewind videos, its not that easy to do you have to download programs and poo, could you do it for us pleeeeeeease phillis, because you’re so cool
Yeah – that looks totally awesome.
Can\’t wait for \’The Events\’. Derren\’s work is so cool (ha, just look at Enigma – that was amazing… And I got to see it twice… and meet him once afterwards. Go me.)
hehe.
Hello, Derren
I may sound a bit like a religious nut right now but… I see the light!
Soon many of you will too, you just gotta look in the right place. It has been mentioned already
@Jacqueenking:
Shouldn’t we all do as we are told?
You never know what we might miss out on if we dont
Here’s an ODD ENIGMA: (Please feel free to answer it).
_____________________________________________
If I’m a Woolf
And Derren, along with Coops, are rather cheeky lil monKEYs
What Delightful Creatures would you say Abeo and the lovely Phillis should be?
@ Mr Woolf – But playing by the rules is not playing at all.
you realise if u record it with soudn recorder in windows u can just click reverse and hear him talkign about magic being about missdirection and him telling us that u can get in on the show if u go to the webbys in the video tho it doesent say that its where they take you he talks about performing 4 huge stunts of misdirection and any system is breakable with the right tricks
The thing behind his head is a security light. Nothing more, nothing less. My guess is that it was edited out of the other videos.
sam, i think he didnt.
i personally think that, contrairy to the first video we were shown, where they did produce the effect by rewinding, this time, no rewinding is used.
just my own little personal theory
ch.
@Jacqueenking:
Oh… don’t get me wrong… THAT I already know my dear, HIGH ‘dedrac’ friend.
Playing the gameS are indeed great FUN…. what’s the point 2 it all, without ALL the fun of the games right?
I merely meant that SOME of us tend to be be punished when we don’t PLAY BALL the way we’re told to.
And sometimes the punishment is far more drastic than an ENJOYABLE little spanking
REALITY is sometimes a little more harsh than people are WILLing 2 eviecrep
HEY, I’m not BAD at this… BOY
Lol…. how QUICKly we forGET SOMEtimes… ALL because of the RUSH!!!

theres the video backwards
i noticed the websites were backwards but the .com still remained at the end!
http://retsehcnamdetinu.com/ (http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/6395/manchester.jpg)
http://stucktomysofa.com/ These both have links to the darren brown website
The bus banner also stated “it will be you”
Numbers on the lampost were 25 (number couldnt see) 6 47
Also truck at the start has “red and black” written on the front haha
Sorry to post twice, just noticed the lottery hand with the it wil be you, so im assuming that the numbers
on the lampost are lottery, think theres a 22 on there too possibly 32, also the man with the umbrella
has a giant O on his back!
He did the flourishing and then reversed the video…
yaw siht semoc dekciw gnihtemos – I look forward to it
um do you think the three clips with the cards are filmed at the same location?
Does the balloon have a Barclays eagle on?
obviously the sign in the background says http://www.manchesterunited.com perhaps one of the 4 events takes place at manchester united football ground?
Read the text below it, pick out the capital letters, except the capitals for names. R-E-W-I-N-D
I went to:
http://www.retsehcnamdetinu.com/ and
http://www.stucktomysofa.com/
When there clicked on it takes you to
http://derrenbrown.channel4.com/
I think too many people are trying to show how smart they supposedly are by looking for a hole in a freaking Swiss cheese. Those websites were a trick, a cheap shot to make you curious which in the end results in you entering his website. Rewind was to get his message across, but once again, curiousity has it that more people are interesed in looking for the answer, again resulting in having a wider audience. If it wasn’t for tricks Derren’s name wouldn’t be so recognizable and he wouldn’t have made it to being a part of a commercial station of Channel 4.
You’re all acting like kids hyped-up on sugar about all this.
Here’s even a question for you.
How many of you have common sense?
And another. How long will my comment be actually published for?
Why?
- Calm down MJ – it’s just a bit of fun
– Phillis
Ah MJ, its nothing to do with common sense, we are all just hyper intelligent people reading too much into things because of our overactive imaginations… but it does make everything that much more fun… go on, come up with some over-blown ideas (you know you want to really)
I watched the longer advert on tv and recorded it, then reversed the sound, the cyclist who says something incomprehensible is saying \”Oi get out the flipping way you idiot reversed.\”
Poor MJ. Seems somebody is forcing him to read and post on this blog against his will. Must be so hard to hang out at the website of somebody you don’t like, without any means of, say, navigating away from it…
MJ love it’s called FUN. Remember that? If you don’t find it fun then fine. Don’t read the comments and it won’t anger you so much. Now how about going for a nice cup of tea and a sit down?
x
PS: I’ll have six sugars in mine if you’re making one :-p
x
Wouldn’t be surprised if “MJ” is a plant on behalf of C4 / Derren to add a bit more fun – I know I would in his position ! – Really looking forward to the shows
Love how some of it is normal and some of it is backwards took me ages to notice, +++ rewind it on ur SKY PLUS lol
I like ya now clip it seems pointless but there is something strange about it, did you just hypnotize me there i noticed that look ya gave after the ace of hearts ha.
Secondly when ya have Posted in DB Direct, “cigaM dna noitpeceD, noitceridsiM” its reversed = “Misdirection,Deception and Magic” (hmm Deception is a new one ya got there)
when ya wrote “Airs tonight after Big Bro and befoRe Ugly BEtty on Ch4. I wonder Which ones of you wIll be watchiNg closely enough to let us know if you Did see anything”ya wanted people to think R-E-W-I-N-D but i think it was really a way for you to subliminally beat cha name into our heads so we guided to watch the show the letters ya see are ,B,R,U,E,W,N,D +DERREN BR”O”WN (O is the most repaeted letter on the line-just a guess)
looking forward
- not backwards?
– Phillis
hmm.. Downloading now.
Ahhh… so it was the Ace of hearts!!!
I did wonder.
Most of the vimeo vids don’t play well at all on the machine I’m currently using.
My computer’s pretty old… I made it myself from an abacus, a commador vic 20 keyboard and an old acorn monitor and of course, trusty gaffer tape (God, now I do feel old).
Ok it’s not that bad really… but some vid playback is all jumpy and pants.
Also, I’ve just re-noticed my previous posting.
How mental do I look? Actually… don’t answer that please.
But yes… A.O.H. eh?… interesting.
Was this maybe one of many seeds planted?
Pax, amor et concordia.
