Here is his intro on Wikipedia:
Derren Brown[1][2] (born 27 February 1971)[3] is an English mentalist and illusionist. Since his television debut with Derren Brown: Mind Control in 2000, he has produced several other shows both for the stage, and for television in both series and specials. He has also written books for magicians as well as the general public.
Brown does not claim to possess any supernatural powers and his acts are often designed to expose the methods of those who do, such as faith healers and mediums. In his performances he often expresses that his effects are achieved through "magic, suggestion, psychology, misdirection and showmanship".
I'm going to dig up some of his cool stunts/tricks/illusions/cons and posts the links. If you're looking yourself, his show "Tricks of the Mind" has a good mix of the different things he does.
