Reading people's Mind, implanting thoughts, predicting behavior and hacking into the subconscious may sound like science fiction. But one man does it, world renowned mentalist Sir Keith Barry.
He reprogram people’s minds and read peoples intimate thoughts using advanced psychological principles.
Keith Barry is a brain hacker. It's the term people have coined especially for him and it sounds dangerous.
He doesn't read minds and he doesn't believe in psychics, but what he does believe is human observation, deduction, neuro-linguistics, probing, hypnosis and magic can make people think he is hacking into their brains. And on Wednesday, he tried it on me.

By the age of 20, Barry was studying psychology and hypnosis and went on to win almost every magic award going. But it was the head that had his heart.
"I'm fascinated by the human brain, especially the subconscious mind.
"Once you understand the subconscious and how it functions and how it works, then you can start to manipulate it and hack into it."
He's studied and created his own sleeper agent to prove the US government ran the secret assassin programme, and he's used his skills on some of the world's most famous faces, like Ellen De Generes, Elijah Wood and Rachel Hunter.
