Sherlock Holmes is a beloved fictional character who most people, even if they’ve never read the books or seen the movies, at least know something about. The detective was known for the way he could use observation, forensic science, and logical reasoning to solve cases in seemingly impossible ways.
Recently on America’s Got Talent, one young man named Colin Cloud took the stage claiming to be the closest thing to a real-life Sherlock Holmes in the world. The judges and the audience were understandably skeptical, but by the end of his act they were true believers in his incredible skills.
Colin admitted that his background is in criminal profiling, specifically in detecting when people are lying. He quickly proved that he is very good at his job!
First, he correctly guessed the professions of some random members of the audience. Then he took out a coin and correctly guessed which of the judges’ hands it was in.
