English mentalist and illusionist Derren Brown brings this experiment to American TV. The Push premieres on Netflix on February 27. If pushed to the most extreme limits, would you be able to commit a murder? How would you react? Could you push someone off a ledge knowing that they would die? "The Push" seeks to answer questions like these.
From the description on Netflix's official YouTube channel:
In "The Push", Brown exposes the psychological secrets of obedience and social compliance. He expertly lifts the lid on the terrifying truth that, when confronted with authority, our natural instinct is to unflinchingly obey without question – to such an extent that even the most moral people can be made to commit the most horrendous acts, simply because they are told to do so.
