Derren Brown - Hero at 30,000 Feet
 

In case anybody missed this a week or so ago, it's well worth checking out. It takes a guy who is lacking in self-esteem and confidence and turns him into someone who seizes opportunity and takes the right action to make something of his life. Very inspirational.


YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

I dont think there is thanks enough for this.

I wiill fully admit this resonated with me so much, I even shed a few tears.

Anyone into NLP should watch this. Any Bhuddist here should watch this.

Seeing how his life was completly changed by the decisions he made in just a single month should be an inpiration for everyone here willing to do better by acting better.

Thanks for sharing. I'm not always a big fan of Derren Brown but this is certainly interesting!

I like to think I'm mostly living in the moment and always pushing things and taking risks etc but there is so much more I should be doing to keep myself out my comfort zone and grow! It's so easy to slip in to the comfort zone though!

Yeah, I caught this the other week. I'm a big derren brown fan and thought was hugely inspirational. I'm with darood on this, it hit me on quite a personal level as I saw bits of my old self in the guys life.

Good stuff

Best hour I've spent in a long time.

The crocodile analogy surely has some resonance here. Senses open, knowing precisely what and where its prey is, and once biting, not letting go.

But more broadly - Live in the now, live every second, and in that second do only what you would do without a thought for the past or future.

Open all the boxes... Open all the boxes!

In the interests of looking at this critically, I thought I'd post someone's comment from Darren's blog. It throws up a few questions but it's non-conclusive.

not a big fan of derren brown but was impressed with this show.
but with a lot of his stuff.I always think "Hes a illusionist" and take it with a pinch of salt.

just act without thought of consequence

Agreed Camarda, cheap bs unfortunately.

Edit: Upon finishing = quite expensive bs!

Time to think about why you are really here.. and are you making the most of your precious once in a life time opportunity to be what you always wanted to be..

I mean if a dribbling retard can decide to try and land a plane, those of us starting from a higher level can achive so much more. or ateast have the faith in achieving a threesome with a pair of HB9s
