Derren Brown is an illusionist that makes usage of Hypnosis, NLP, misdirection and showmanship.
It was him that got me started with magic, hypnosis etc. A lot of action are basically tricks, but he uses a lot of hypnosis too.
In the stare down with the bald guy is clearly a waking state of hypnosis, so is the woman he stops by clinching his fist.
The assassination of Stephen Fry is classic hypnosis and based on the Robert Kennedy assassination.
The gun scene is a trick which I will not give away, some things should stay a secret.
