[Music]. that good mythical morning thank you for. joining us today today could change your. life why because you're a liar Liars. Liars we're all liars I I always tell. the truth I'm like Honest Abe.

no you're not even if you're a truthful. person you'll tell White Lies every now. and again it it's a pro fact no that's. racist everybody lies uh on a daily. basis it's it's just a fact of life it's. a fact of our culture sadly yep um The. Human Condition lies are rewarded now. what I want to do is I want to take us. through eight tips to be able to tell. when someone is lying or to be able to. be a better liar exactly this it's your. choice how you want to apply this.

knowledge but either way you should be. taking notes so I got eight of these. things I think um we can interact with. these a little bit you know um you being. serious now you telling the truth or you. making are you lying making this up how. how would you know you hav't I don't. know I haven't been trained yet tip. number one a liar will look you in the. eyes too. much. really you're not really interested. you're lying cuz you're you're. maintaining eye contact see that's this.

is so interesting now it is interesting. work with me here just don't keep. staring at me like that because it makes. me uncomfortable which is a different. video entirely how to make link. uncomfortable um this is actually a. reaction to the well-known fact that. Liars don't like to make eye contact. yeah they like to shift to the left that. now there is a shift in how Liars lie. because they know that they will. overcompensate by making too much eye. contact when telling you a lie o pretty.

interesting huh H little feedback loop. tip number two a liar will use formal. language over informal instead of saying. I didn't take your. cookies you'll say I did not take your. cookies yeah I always use I don't use. contractions when I'm when I'm lying. nobody does I do not use contractions. when I am. lying I just lied I get it okay so but. but you weren't lying you just being.

funny I don't know I mean maybe I do. this I don't lie that much I hardly ever. lie I'm honest have a. beard well you're not making eye contact. so maybe that I am with them what is a. what does a beard have to do with this. beards make you more honest all right. science science says so don't write that. down RH Rett has a beard everyone's. writing that down now uh tip number. three when someone is lying they will. limit their expressions to only the. mouth.

that's hard to do like a fake smile man. you know okay uh how to determine when a. f a smile is fake or real if it's just. in the mouth it is a fake smile like. this I can't do that cuz I just look. constipated you know and actually your. your cheeks are raising you're not. supposed to raise your cheeks much how. do you do it without raising your cheeks. well a real smile your cheeks will raise. a lot and you'll you'll have some crow's.

feet develop here it'll be like you know. be see that I it's actually I'm still. doing a fake smile but I'm doing a. convincing SM fake smile smake. file see that's almost real but if it's. just in this like a duchin smile oh. duchin yeah the psych you know the. famous psychologist he determined that. when your cheeks raise up and you have. crows feet then that's a real smile but. when my kids smile for a picture I'm. like smile for the picture 1 2 3 smile.

and then it's like constipated it's just. un constipated dad that's what they call. a PanAm smile um oh because of the. planes because of the planes the flight. attendant this is before Botox you could. also call it the botox smile when it's. your your eyes don't move at all but. before Botox which was in 2002 that's. when Botox came out for cosmetic reasons. right there was an airline called PanAm. you know a lot you seem to know. about and um you know how when you're. exiting the plane what what do the.

flight attendants do they say duck sir. please duck to you yeah to me because to. everyone else they just give a fake. smile thank you thank you thank you and. it's all in the all in the mouth have a. great day you know that they're lying. they don't they're not grateful that you. flew that's why it's called they've been. on a plane all day PanAm smile not the. duchin smile tip number four a liar will. subconsciously make gestures that do not. match their emotions so you'll be like.

uh of course I would love to help you. move and it's actually difficult to do. did you see I like stting shaking my. head like let me get going now I do yes. I would like to help you move it's got. to be more subtle than that it's it's. subtle it's more like it's like yeah I'd. love to help you move like Catherine urn. is that kind of situation yeah I mean no. people do that if be like um I disagree. with. you that's convincing but it seems like. you actually do agree with me it's kind.

of like patting your head and rubbing. your stomach it's not easy to do no your. car your car isn't over there. subconsciously it's like if somebody. gives you a Christmas gift and you're. like yeah I'd love the Christmas gift. that you're trying to give me but you're. pushing it away I don't know maybe. that's a stretch I think they're more. subtle than that I don't know yes it's. more subtle but I'm making it obvious so. that you can learn oh cuz I'm. stupid what number are we on number five. a liar will subconsciously Place objects. between between them and their.

accuser so like tell me tell me. something that's truth and tell me. something that's a lie and put something. in between me now again this is a. subconscious thing oh a little. subconscious marketing these are not. shoes no it's it's it's these are phones. yeah no well you wouldn't lie about the. thing that's being put in between you. but you you would be like yeah I I I. enjoy uh working with you and you would. distance yourself and kind of build a. barrier be like yeah I enjoy working.

with you I enjoy being in your presence. but this is a good idea though this is a. phone this isn't a shoe yeah and you. can't get it at ret link.com store what. product placement a marketing thing um. yes I mean this it's interesting how. when it comes to these subconscious. tells that again they are very subtle. yeah but you can see it there's there's. a fascinating Ted talk about this whole. thing and she cuts to images of Bill. Clinton and uh John Edwards only.

Democratic candidates Democratic. Democratic Democratic politi no I don't. want to get political here demic uh also. OJ OJ o OJ's honest cust a video of. these people OJ was telling the truth. man I I'll put the link in the. description he had a little stubble if. you want to go deeper um what are we on. now number six a liar would use your. words of a question to make an answer so. if I'm like did you steal my last cookie. no I did not steal your last cookie.

right see you're lying otherwise you. would have just said. nah right or uh-uh or you would just say. yeah yeah I did and that would just be. the truth which is a different thing. number seven Liars like to add. unnecessary details into their. statements it's another uh technique. technique of overcompensating you know. you're lying so you might as well try to. throw in too many details to convince. people why would I know so much if I was. telling right I forgot to put deodorant.

under my left arm when I wasn't stealing. your. car and finally Liars are horrible at. telling their stories backwards you know. people tend to. rehearse they're stories they're aliis. but then if you especially if you do it. over time like not all at once but you. ask them well if they're lying about. where they ended up they're going to. start at the beginning you can start at. the end ask them about that and then. slowly move backwards to the story and.

it will just blow their minds yeah. because they've invented they've. invented the story it didn't really. happen so they can't go back in one. order recreate it right so you're. accessing it in a different way okay. well let's see how good you are at. this I do not have a sheet of paper. folded up in my pocket that says the key. to happiness is a warm puppy with a. picture of a puppy that I drew in the. year. 1958 you didn't there's nothing in. between us you l lost eye contact there.

for a minute. um I'd say that that's true it's not a. lie only one way to. tell the key to happiness is a warm. puppy. 1958 I don't think we've proven anything. all right people the power is yours you. now you now that's like a magic trick.
