This TED Talk features Apollo Robbins and secrets behind his pick-pocketing genius. Robbins shows us that it's only your outward attention that needs to be distracted to be able to "pick your pockets," it's your inward attention. Robbins has his audience move their attention to memories, which distracts them even more than simply drawing their attention in another direction.
What I like best about this TED Talk was that Robbins used audience participation. He stated his theory about the ability to draw away people's attention, but then actually demonstrated it too. My favorite part was when he changed his own appearance without anyone noticing it happen.
