New Routine - Human Lie Detector

Ok so here is a new routine. While not completely original i haven't heard anyone in the community doing it so i guess i am the first to be field testing it.

I got this idea from an NLP Weekly Article.

The idea is you ask someone 5 questions that will take them a bit to think about. Ask them to lie about one question. You observe their eye movements and then choose the one they lied about based on seeing their eyes access a different cue from the rest of the time they told the truth.

First field test:
A buddy's girlfriend was hanging out with me at a bar and i did it to her. I asked "Think of your very first kiss. What color was his hair. Where where you. How old were you. What color was his shirt. And what kind of shoes did he have on" I nailed her completely right. She changed her eye accessing cues when i asked what color was his hair. Good success.

Second Field test:
A buddy of mine who bartends. This one i screwed up on. He was looking away and i said look at me. He instantly knew i was looking at his eyes and he lied changing his eye accessing. So what i learned was don't bring to their attention your looking at their eyes.

Third field test:

Overall it is a fun routine. You can back it up by doing it a second time without them saying it and just thinking it.

One important note. I sometimes get too into looking at their eyes and forget what they said. You have to remember what their answers are. Saying you lied on question # 2 doesn't go as well.
