During Sunday chat session, Derren Brown came up.
http://www.derrenbrown.co.uk/
He can fool practically anyone into anything, and he's an extraordinary cold reader that knows how the human mind works.
English channel4 has made several programs called "Mind Control" where he demonstrates what seems to be psychic abilities, but then turns and tell the viewers the secret behind the trick.
Everything from passively reading you to tell if you're lying, via "mind reading" and voodoo doll, to mass hypnosis/ ordering people by subliminal messages.
Watch some of tricks with real player here:

No no no! It's magic tricks and Derren admits it. Don't go see how they're done. It's more fun if you don't know. Some people depend on the secrets of magic to make a legitimate living. No no no, don't go look!

I know how to play baseball, but it's still entertaining to see it played by professionals.
