You tube videos
Some people who stuck right and proper on Friday night have started posting videos of their immobile selves. Here’s my favourite: a great video of one Vicky Green, who had the foresight, along with many others, to film herself. Thank you, Vicky, for posting this, and I hope you don’t mind me posting it again here.
Please let us know if you’re going to post vids of yourselves stuck: I would love to keep them for posterity.
Hope you’re all up and about now. Slightly disappointed there have been no angry calls to the Daily Mail from the paralysed middle classes: a bit of scandal never goes amiss. We shall wait until Monday to see for sure.

Derren, didn’t you learn English? You need to use capital letters =D
LOL,
You Rock!
too bad scifi doesnt play you anymore
Hahaaa! Thats a great reaction. I didnt get that stuck but I can imagine how scary it was.
You’re a genius Derren 😀
A great event.
Nice video even if the abreaction is a little worrying.
As for the daily mail…. Nope, mustn’t say it.
Good work Team Brown
Hellooo just tried talking on twitter i was stuck for 2 hours??? hahahaha was good … but why?
Hi Derren,
I did not get stuck to my seat but believe that it really did work. That video of Vicky Green is brilliant! Poor girl……..
Still dont believe your lottery thing im afraid…….. 1 out of 2 aint bad!
Best,
Andy
Try embedding it, then we can play it right from the blog instead of going to YouTube…
Msg from Abeo: Post amended 😉
What a lovely video!
For me, I could get up all right, but the chair was stuck to my back and legs, now even going to the shops is awkward as I have to negotiate steering a leather recliner on my behind though the dairy section for a pint of milk! Is there a furniture clearing tone perhaps?
Brillian stuff, great work Derren!!
For those who it didn’t work for, Derren still succeeded in controlling the nation – he had you all sat up straight with your hands on your knees for a minute 😀
legend!
there is this one of meeeeee being stuck, there’s another one that my sister has somewhere in which she falls over whilst trying to pull me up – which rather made up for the amount she was laughing at me at the time…. well done and ta for the whole experience 🙂 xx

I was quite disappointed it didn’t work on me to be honest. Something you said though, during the show, about it not working online because of the “resolution” really put me off though. The internet and a computer monitor would be way more technically capable than a digital television.
lol it was my elbows that stuck! And I laughed manically! Is this normal??
I was gutted at first not to have it happen myself but I ended up finding a few videos on youtube myself last night and it made me giggle at some of the reactions, especially when people get a bit angry with themselves for not moving!
Loving your work Derren and hopefully see you in March! x
Brilliant to see all these recordings.
Wish there was a recording out there with high quality that I could play back to my friends who didnt see it so I could see if it would work on them 🙂
Oh my, that poor girl…..I really felt for her! It just brought that whole feeling back, legs feeling like lead, etc.
Btw, what a nasty comment that person put on there (philrocks08). Not nice at all.

Loved that video! Felt a little bad for laughing but her reaction was very funny.
Can I also just say that it never even entered my head to put up a vid of myself going through this, damn it! (although I hate myself on camera…..so that’s my excuse!)
LC x
I didn’t get stuck but I still love you! xx
Ha ha .. brilliant!
I had planned on filming myself and also being able to phone in – but stupidly my mobile battery was flat!
Hahaha
Yes Betty from the Church hall will be keeping her stories for Sunday coffee morning, “Oooh, and you should have seen our Frank, white as a ghost and couldn’t move, ive never seen anything like it”.
Gem x
Derren, I guess you’ve seen the Youtube things explaining the lottery trick/prediction?
Camera trickery they said – fools that they are!
Hi Derren, was an amazing show last night. I got stuck and then I needed the toilet. Shall not gross you out with the gruesome details of my near shaming but still very impressed. Thank you! ^_^
Hmm, although if I REALLY swallowed my self-consciousness (difficult) and rigged up a vid, I could tape myself and try again (as I have the show on DVD). I’ve not tried it again yet.
Perhaps I may get well and truly stuck to my seat this time if I make sure I don’t have a big ginger tom cat lying asleep up on the back of the chair behind my head like before! 😀

omg i cant believe youv put my video up !!
some of the comments that people are leaving are really upsetting me 🙁
thank you derren brown !!!
Even though i didn’t stick, I had the most fun watching my friend squirming. Loved it 😀
this is how it was for me
I got stuck, and it was awesome! I wonder if Derren ever watched the sticking to the sofa video to see if he got stuck? My sister and mum were too scared to watch it, haha! They thought they’d be stuck for ever or something (I wouldn’t mind – No school!)
Looking forward to next Friday’s show!!!
Haha, love that vid, bless her 😛
Loved the show last night, heart was hammering like crazy just before the “sticking” clip, then got very light headed and couldn’t stop laughing whilst my legs were stuck! Crazy stuff x
@Vicky – Yes, I did spot some (one in particular which would upset me). Just try & ignore them.
I loved watching your vid very much! 🙂

Brilliant !!! When you next coming to York Derren x
Hi Vicky and Derren,
just watched the video -it’s extremely interesting -how did you do this Derren -how does it work?
Vicky, don’t worry about some of the comments, I would have reacted exactely the same, I am sure it must have been very scary not being able to get up.
Take care
Believe
Vicky, I watched it and you look lovely. Call them all f**ingt*tw***ing c**ts :o)
Derren, very naughty of you to post footage of a lady in her pjs. Poor form sir!
Don’t have a tv, so just about to watch the show on OD. Should hopefully still work :o)
Kisses x
I’ve done this twice now and I have been successfully stuck both times. Im going to film myself next time I do it and I hope it works again =)
She is well and truly cemented. Lucky, i only got a little stuck and heavy legs.xx
Hey, is it possible to get a downloadable version of the segment? I watched it online, so it was too low-res to work, apparently. Downloading it would make for some interesting ideas: stick it on the TV in the middle of a party? Make it into an iPhone app? 😀
The possibilities are endless. Derren, please do it 🙂
On a side note, your blog knows my face. Sir, your reach is infinite.
Wow! You’re a legend Derren!!! Keep up the good work! More ammaaaaazing stunts please!!! 😀
XXXXXXXXXXX
Well done Vicky, don’t worry about the comment sweetheart, a friend of mine also started to cry when she couldn’t get up. Its a normal reaction and many more people wished it had worked on them.
@Vicky Green Good idea for filming it, I didn’t even think of that!! Me, my daughter and my partner all got stuck it was a little weird and really didn’t think it would work. I was only stuck for about 5 mins so it must have been really scary for you being longer. Don’t let it get to you about the nasty comments they are just jealous and sad!!
Take care 😀
@Siobhan
hehehehe .. its horrible 🙁 it was very very scary i didnt know how to react .. it was a sudden realisation that i had no control over my legs .. i wanted so badly to get up
i just couldnt !!
it was very weird
i could lift up my bum but it was just underneath my knees that wouldnt come away from the chair !
it felt like someone was sat on my knees .. it was very very strange !!
@Siobhan – Blimey….you tell ’em! lol 😀
LC x
This is brilliant! I live in Norway so obviously I didn’t get the chance to watch it ….. which is a shame. But I really want to see if it works on me!
i just watched the clip, i think it’s brilliant, derren think you are amazing, would love to have your skills!!!
Vicky you are a star! What;s that nonsense I see on youtube with you saying you look pregnant? You look great and fair play to you for sharing your experience.
Derren, you’re fatastic!
HAHAHAHAHAHAH awwww bless her!
@Vicky Green – You star, that was great. Thanks for filming & posting on YouTube, I was fascinated.
:O 🙁 :S XD 😀 🙂 O.o O.O >> << :@ :&
Cool 🙂
Thank you Vicky for the brilliant video.
