СКАЧАТЬ I appeared at the Battle. In the park «Losiny Ostrov (Elk Island)» two hundred people gathered, having passed the qualifying casting in their region. Including the accompanying, I think, it was at least 500 people. It was a beautiful and warm sunny day. We were hanging out in the shade of the park, escaping from the heat. A strangely dressed lady with a lot of «toys» – a city shaman – immediately attracted the attention of others. She was in the top ten and showed good results in the current tests: for example, she found a «bomb.» After registration, the interview began – self-presentation. «I am Aleksandr Strannik, a psychic, I use an automatic writing method for my work.»

      «I am Martha, the village witch, I tell the fortune with the help of herbs, I prepare potions, which can kill you to death.»

      It took about five hours and there were 200 people, after all.

      Simultaneously the most colorful people were filmed in more detail. There was an enormous controversy, who is cooler and whose techniques are stronger. No one of the «coolest» passed the first test. These shootings were for the archive, in order to show then the finalists from the very beginning of the battle.

      Next – the passage along the alley (to show mass presence), this picture is in the first minute of the first series. They drove us along the alley three times.

      – Remove bags. Get together. You don’t look like psychics,» the director commanded. He knows what psychics viewers see. We were gathered in the lobby. It was at the hall entry. We were filmed twice. We settled. We were put in different places for better picture.

      Test «Screen». On the stage there is a folding screen. It is necessary to describe in as much detail as possible what is hidden behind an impermeable screen. It’s about eight in the evening. Ladies in high heels were unlucky – all day on their feet.

      In the hall there was a sharp change in the mood of candidates for psychics.

      In the park, all or almost all are very cool, everyone knows, everyone can. Demons are expelled, bad spells are removed. They can tell the future and heal. They show various magical (clown) attributes, there was even a girl with a real python…

      In the hall in front of the screen, my self-confidence disappeared.

      – What do you see, what do you feel? – people, who came together, are whispering in groups. The response is silence… The coolness has gone… A strange guy was sitting nearby; he was dressed in such a shabby shirt and pants, in such worn rubber slippers on his bare feet – well, just wayward. He was brought there by very well-dressed people and all the time he was asked what he saw. Neither the guy nor his companions passed into the next stage.

      «Feeling that behind the screen» took half an hour. It was possible to approach the screen closely in turn; just you could not touch it. You could use any attributes.

      They beat in tambourines, sounded trumpet, burnt candles, laid out cards, listened to shells, looked into the balls – everyone was doing whatever he could. The time was over. Curtain went down. They began to record on camera, what they saw. They were recording directly with six cameras in different parts of the building. After recording, they were immediately taken out into the street.

      I saw what was behind the screen using the technique of extrasensory drawing; I consistently asked a question and drew the probability of answering this question from 0 to 100%.

      – Is behind the screen a living object? – it turned out «YES» (the line went from NO to YES).

      – Is behind the screen a man? – it turned out «YES».

      – Is behind the screen a man? – it turned out «YES» (here I was mistaken – there was a woman).

      He also asked age, hair color… it was all not important.

      So I answered before the camera when it was my time, about three o’clock in the morning. I did not expect the shooting to last so long. I went to the countryside without knowing the result. The secret of the screen was not revealed until the first broadcast of the battle, until September. Well done – kept everyone in the dark.

      A few days later I received the call: «You went to the second round – tomorrow is shooting.» In the second round, about 30 people were selected from 200, those who showed results close to reality, as well as especially colorful ones.

      The stage «Trunk» was shot quite differently. The hype was no longer visible. We were gathered in groups at the metro station «Airport». My group met at 23:00. They brought us to the factory, placed all ten of us in the dressing room. They took our telephones. The access to the toilet was accompanied. The task was to for everyone to calmly wait for his turn. In our group I saw the finalists: Sheps and Marilyn.

      I saw both Anar and Nazira. Marilyn, however, almost immediately went to the shooting. I hardly remember Nazira, she was dozing in a corner in an armchair, it was the night already. She chose the most successful solution: remained invisible in the close-up dressing room until the start of the shooting. The rest failed to remain unnoticed.

      We were all stirred by Julia, in my opinion, she is exactly an actress. She was screaming (singing) everywhere: in the park, in the hall during «the Screen», and here, in the dressing room. There was simply no escape from her; she filled the whole space. When she left, thank God, it was rather early; we all breathed a sigh of relief.

      – At last.

      – Each of us has his own specifics, – Volodya said, an employee of the company, philosophically, thus stopping our jokes.

      The winner of the 14th season, Sheps before «The Trunk» sat with his lovely companion in the dressing room on a chair a meter away from me. Behaved with dignity – was silent. Anar was talking more than others and tried to start a talk with them, an exorcist from Azerbaijan, that’s how he introduced himself. Sheps introduced himself as a medium.

      – Why are you looking at me like that? – Anar tesed Sheps’s companion.

      – How «like that»? – the girl fought back embarrassedly. As for me, she didn’t look at him at all.

      – You throw all sorts of nastiness at me, – Anar insisted.

      – I do not throw anything.

      When Sheps and his companion (he called her «his battery») went to the «Trunk», Anar pulled out a mortar from a package, black powder, dissolved it in water and began to spray the dressing room and part of the corridor.

      – They brought the parasites here, now I’ve cleaned everything,» Anar finally calmed down.

      Sheps with Anar continued to fight further. In one of the airs, Sheps told: «I would gladly send some from here to hell.» In this «war of psychics,» the victory turned out to be for Sheps. Anar could not show anything interesting and soon dropped out. After the «Battle» on TNT was completed, the plot was shown, where Sheps and Marilyn performed a strange ritual against other psychics: they stuck knives in their photos to deprive them of their power.

      – This is a battle, everyone wants to win, let them defend themselves,» Sheps answered to the puzzled question of the presenter.

      It was my turn СКАЧАТЬ
