I mean judging by the reactions it's hard to believe it's scripted, don't see Josh, McD etc signing off on purposely deceiving ppl. This guy has tons of videos dating back years

It's not as in Allen and the players were part of it.  I have had this done to me when I was living in LA.  I had a junior level magician explain it to me and its one of those psychological tricks done at the highest level.  This Oz guy practices it like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant practiced basketball which was insane levels.....I think we all could do it if we dedicated that much time.  I just don't have that love for it.

The way it was explained to me, was that the answers to the questions are planted throughout their environment, everywhere, the people can’t help but to see them over and over, but they don’t realize what they’re seeing. When the mentalist asks the questions, the people give an answer that reflects what they’ve been subconsciously seeing.
 

The biggest hurdle I see in that is that the person still has to say what you expect him/her to say and I’ve never seen it fail. They’ve never deviated from the answer the mentalist needs, so that’s the weird part.

I just don't understand the cake. It had to be premade with Mickey mouse. What if he didn't say Disney world? Does he assume everybody's answer would be Disney world when asked the question?

Yeah that’s the part that gets me. Even if a certain person is targeted and subconsciously influenced to say a specific thing, they’ve still gotta say it. Never have I seen a mentalist stuck with an answer they weren’t expecting.

You think they would publish a video of their schtick failing?

I'm sure it happens, but unless you're in the audience you're not likely to see it.

For the cake trick, I for sure would not taste that cake.  The black stuff is not chocolate or cake.  "Mickey" was not a very complex shape with one big circle and two small circles.  (Oz is a rich man can afford better props than typical magicians, but this trick has been around for awhile.)

 

For the 8850 trick, Josh and his center were in on the trick.
