Pretty simple and effective psychological trick to take down aggression
Illusionist Derren Brown gave his own example.
One day, some drunken man came up to him, he obviously wanted to beat him up and started saying something like, "What are you looking at?" Derren didn't get aggressive, on the contrary, he relaxed and said:
- the wall of my house is less than four feet high, but I lived in Spain for a while and you should have seen these walls, they are huge, like this...
The aggressor didn't get it, and then Derren pointed him to the small brick wall around the garden where they were. That guy looked at the wall, and it made it clear that he had won him over with words. And the conflict was resolved on the spot.
The trick was to bring down that guy's adrenaline and aggression by answering his question indirectly and strangely. As a result, the aggressor snapped, calmed down, and started crying to Derren about his girlfriend, the one he was having problems with.

Alan Ross McWhirter (12 August 1925 – 27 November 1975) was, with his twin brother, Norris, the co-founder in 1955 of Guinness Book of Records (known since 2000 as Guinness World Records) and a contributor to the television programme Record Breakers. He was killed by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) in 1975.
McWhirter advocated various restrictions on the freedom of the Irish community in Britain, such as making it compulsory for all of them to register with the local police and to provide signed photographs of themselves when renting flats or booking into hotels and hostels. In addition, McWhirter offered a £50,000 reward for information leading to a conviction for several recent high-profile bombings in England that were publicly claimed by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA). In doing so, McWhirter recognised that he could then be a target himself. This was described as a bounty by McWhirter, and considered a bounty by the IRA Army Council, a view that led directly to the events that followed, although the idea was not originally his, but that of John Gouriet.
