Jedi mind trick = Run up to a girl and grab her shoulder..

Is there real money in this?

I quite like this website. They are pretty good but I can see a few people on this forum tearing into them a bit. Their podcasts are good to get you psyched up for a bit of daytime approaching.

This is one of their latest vids.

Slick video...and I really believe in audience appeal of podcasts...

Well done in terms of marketing.

But...running up to girls? I would never recommend that shit. Nor would I approach from behind.

Especially for a guy like me. I'm 6'1, free safety build, and intimidating. I would scared the crap out of girl running up to here like that.

Only good thing I've seen so far is the distance (about 2-3 away). At least that is disarming.

Luckstar - how do you approach?
I agree it's feels a bit like a clown jumping out in front of you. But the point is that its designed to actually stop the girl so you don't have to deal with the shame of her walking straight past as you give her your opener.

Well, approach her as she is walking towards you for starters. Don't let her pass you without you approaching.

Mandatory: Open with 'Excuse me, ...' and stand the fuck back (2-3 feet).

In North America, I do more direct openers...'I like your smile/style...(pause)', if I get a smile out of her, I continue with direct ('I like your smile, I wanted to say hi'), have a conversation, and ask her out. If I don't then, I switch to indirect, 'I like your smile, you seem like a nice person, could you help me with...' or 'I like your style, you seem like a cool person, could you help me with...' and then I run mostly what Roosh describes in his Day Bang book in terms of dropping bait and building interest.

It's almost better to be stationary, and let the traffic come to you and then approach with indirect (Excuse me..).

This is my style, and it works for me. I like street game.

"if you do it right you will stop then 100% of the time."

So if you don't stop a girl, guess what he's going to tell you..... you didn't do it right!!

"it's amazing, and i came up with it."

It's like a dude who laughs at his own jokes.

It's not an entirely bad move.

But I can see some awkward outcomes when not done "right".

Good advice. I think if I see a target I may have to reposition myself so it looks like I am walking dOwn the opposite side of the street even if I wasn't.
Running up to a girl out if nowhere feels desperate to me and isn't very cool.
I still like watching their vids though.

Honestly try doing your own thing instead of watching videos of weird approaches..
