- wlkr 4y agoYou're right, I've changed the terminology to clarify this for people unfamiliar with Derren Brown.
- TrinaryWorksToo 4y agoDerren has unfortunately been a big source of misinformation. I once saw a video of his at a neuroscience conference.
- teddyh 4y agoBeing a re-enactment and not a recreation, it also does not have “results”.
- wlkr 4y agoIf you've watched it, re-enactment probably isn't quite the right term either. AFAIK the 'participants' weren't aware it was an 'experiment'. It has results, they are just extremely limited and not rigorous.
