* TheGameNeverStopped: Steven was told he failed to qualify for partaking in the special. This was done so he doesn't get suspicious of his surrounding when the gaslighting, and eventually the elaborate con, starts.

In 2012, hypnotist and magician Creator/DerrenBrown abducted an unsuspecting member of the public and placed him in a former military enclosure for two days, with only some actors and hidden cameras for company. Most of the actors were playing zombies, the idea being to convince the victim... er, subject... that he'd lived through a ZombieApocalypse. The results were broadcast on {{Channel 4}} in October/November, in the form of two hour-long specials.
