Science Of Attraction – Now Live!
The Science of Attraction is the sequel to the BAFTA nominated Science of Scams web series. http://www.scienceofscams.com
Introduced by Derren Brown and presented by Kat Akingbade and Charlie McDonnell the website acts as the hub for a number of entertaining and informative experiments about the psychology, biology and unwitting judgements that explain why we are attracted to each other.
Poets have swooned over it since the invention of the written word; singers started crooning about it even before that time. It is a central theme in our daily lives, from the books we read to the people who make our hearts beat a little faster. It’s what “makes the world go ’round.†For the most part, attraction remains an unsolved mystery. No definitive method exists to calculate or predict to whom we will be attracted. The media constantly tries to tell us how we should look, what is attractive, what products we should buy and what clothes we should wear to be more attractive, there are books on chat up techniques and rules about dating and now science is tackling the subject. Recent experiments involving everything from sweaty T-shirts to facial symmetry have started to piece together some of the clues to this enormously complex phenomenon and in this series we’ll explore the scams and the science behind attraction.
Each video contains experiments that test theories about the science of attraction. Lively, entertaining and insightful these experiments are based on the most recent research that has been carried out on the science of attraction. Do psychological strategies espoused by self-help gurus and dating experts really work? Is it really possible to use body language, NLP and other psychological tricks to make yourself appear more attractive? All of these questions and more are investigated at www.scienceofattraction.co.uk.

First full episode is released tomorrow!
Charlie!
It all comes down to that definitive attribute…confidence.
OMFG Charlie gets all the luck 😀
OMGOMGOMGOMG. At this very moment I sound shallow but I am too excited to speak. I have been THE BIGGEST FAN possible of both of these guys for a ridiculous amount of time – and now they’re together! OMG.
This should be quite interesting 🙂 Well done Derren for taking this on!
hmm I think confidence is a key point here, but it would be nice to see what the findings are from this mini show 🙂
The refraction of attraction.
I use NLP and hypnosis to get all the women!
It’s the advantage of average! Symmetry and blurred lines 😛
Can’t wait to learn more!
Very much looking forward to watching these episodes. If they’re anything like the Science Of Scams ones then they should be really interesting.
I just think that attraction comes down to individuality, we all see beauty in difference faces and traits. But I shall be fascinated to see what these videos show us. 🙂

Am I looking forward to this! Oh yes!
Looks really good. Shame it won’t be televised as originally planned. Maybe next year?
ahh. so u know german? im just 12 so i dont know as much but…
hallo! ich bin zoe und ich leibe alles derren brown!!!
wait a minute… this was sent by abeo.
Everyone’s like. WOO DERREN and WOO CHARLIE! Give the girl some love too! <3<3<3
the physical attraction is not really a mystery–a big part of it is symmetry. the greeks knew that…check out their sculptures, which are considered the apotheosis of physical beauty.
Derren Brown AND Charlie McDonnell. Brilliant. 😀
Charlie and Derren together, in one place. This is perfeeecctt!
is he going to debunk what the pua community has been trying to feed guys over the last few years? he could be putting neil strauss ross jeffries and mystery out of a job
Damn Charlie! You are working with Derren that’s my biggest dream and you are not even a mentalist or psychological entertainer! You are a lucky man Charlie mcDonnel!
I just wish someone could explain to me why the majority of men that I’m attracted to are handsome intelligent gay men?! Speaking (or typing) as a straight woman, does this mean I’m doomed to be single forever seeing as I seem to prefer the most unobtainable men?
One could only hope that it would eradicate all the NLP and PUA nonsense. I followed that stuff for years, thinking that I wasn’t “doing it right” and ended up…well, not quite empty handed but I certainly didn’t have a life teeming with women. Influence can be a powerful thing, and I have seen some PUA guys personally pull some outrageously attractive women… only to lose them days or weeks later when the girl saw through the fog of routines and fake personality. It’s far more attractive to work on being your best self, your authentic self than it is to rely on gimmicks. Scot McKay at X and Y communications has some of the best info on the web about what it really takes to become more of the man you already are and why that’s infinitely more attractive than magic and hypnosis.
So I saw this and went MENTAL. Charlie and Derren? My 2 favourite people right now?!? No this can’t be true, I am sure 🙂 I will be watching absolutely transfixed on my laptop screen. Good luck with the show 🙂
OOO!!!! Exciting! 😀 xxx Should be interesting.
Daren, we all have basic needs for good health;. Food, Exercise, Sleep, Learning, Socializing (briefly discussed in SOA). I, like others, am dysfunctional on several levels of experience and understanding of how to become my best Me.
With all the social power struggle and cultural brainwashing (with subliminal persuasion) it is difficult to find a way to the best me (or if religious, the person I was meant to be) I would be nice to have a mentor on that path (even from an almost Barrister trained to the art of altering reality)
Multiple failures in our lives have led to appathy & depression. I encourage you to make ‘simple’ exercise, nutritional, or skill learning videos with your love and wizardry which enforce good habits (and possibly correct bad habits). Thanks for your dedication.
