Darren Brown: “speak thinking” at work in magic.
There is only one way this can be done and that is if Darren Brown was listening to what the person was thinking: “speak thinking”.
A “subliminal” goes very well with this trick: tell the person what to think with a subliminal message and then “read his mind” through “speak thinking”.  Since in these 2 cases below  he is close to the people he is dealing with he could be listening in to the persons thinking in a variety of ways.  “what’s in your mind say it” and “start shouting in your mind what it is….”
More importantly one needs to look at the natural process of communicating we do on a daily basis with each other and how we unknowingly share ideas. Â Darren Brown is showing you how this is done. Â Nothing magic about it. Â He is literally listening to you think, through “speak thinking”.
When you “think out loud” you will silently speak out loud what you are thinking and you can hear it in your vocal cords and your thinking being modulated in your breathing.
