I don't agree with the "overreaction" means guilt. A long long time ago, in another country, I was falsely accused by several individuals (for extortion - if I paid them, they would drop the charges) of some serious things which were absolutely false. They had no evidence, they ignored my witness statements, my evidence, and my alibi. It was sooo obvious to me what they were doing, but they kept insisting. Of course, I got very upset and "freaked out" if you will, because it was sooo ridiculous, I couldn't even believe they were accusing me of these horrible things. And these were people I had trusted. Anyway, all I can say is, I've lost trust in most everyone and in humanity in general.

SUPER, SUPER IMPORTANT REMINDER ABOUT OBSERVING BODY LANGUAGE: When you notice people behaving suspiciously, it does NOT NECESSARILY mean they are lying. It is an indication of _discomfort._ People can feel discomfort without lying. People break down crying in court rooms when they have to point out someone who did something bad to them. That is why it’s important to remember that agencies observe *Clusters* of behaviors before making assumptions.

My lie detection story…..I was with this chick for quite a while. We were pretty serious, or so I thought. I noticed some odd behaviors from her that I never noticed before. They led me to believe she was cheating. But the dead giveaway was something she started saying whenever we would talk. She told me that the next day at work there was going to be a sales meeting at the office at lunch time. The boss was supposed to order some lunch for everyone and habe this meeting. She came home the next day and I asked her how the sales meeting went. Her exact words were “Huh? Yeah. No. We wound up not having it. After that, for weeks whenever I asked her about work she would start her answer or even just the conversation with “Huh? Yeah. No.” The “Huh” was her acting like she didn’t hear me when she was just buying time to come up with a lie. Then the “Yeah” and “No” was her trying to cover all her bases and confuse the situation. Then she would turn it on me like I was constantly grilling her about work. Guilty as homemade sin! Anything I would ask her about, not even about work she would use that stupid “Huh? Yeah. No.” phrase she came up with. Then I noticed her talking in the most fake southern accent a lot of times. Turns out the guy she was cheating with (yes, her computer showed the truth and she finally admitted it….kind of) was some country singer type wannabe. 😂 Him and her were so pathetic. I packed her stuff and put it outside and kicked her out of my house. That was a long time ago. They got married and then divorced because….you guessed it, he wound up cheating on her! 😂🤣 Ain’t karma a bitch?! 😂 So listen to how someone speaks. If the are saying weird phrases or suddenly talking with an accent. Little things like that.

A little reductive on the intense overreaction of the accused. It is also common to be outraged at the impugning of your honor, your integrity, your worth, etc. by someone for whom you've sacrificed immensely over the years and thought was on your side. Some people react with hurt, others react with anger (righteous indignation).

In my experience, another sign of lying is excessive details in an answer.

“Were you home last Friday?”

“Yeah, I was. Crazy, I wanted to go out but then I twisted my ankle walking down the steps—and man it was because the lights went out and I needed to flip a breaker. Anyway, while all this was happening…”

Whereas someone who was actually home would just say “yes.”

People want to read you an audiobook when they have something to conceal.

Is that something you’ve found?

As a former LEO and body language expertise, the Hillary one is good, but the best one I feel is the Amanda Knox interview with Diane Sawyer when she asked point blank if she was there during murder, and if she did it, head shook yes, mouth said no and immediately folloeed by pursed lips! So limbic and neo cortex were definitely at odds! The Nixon: "I'm not a crook" is blatent also
Great video, and spot on!

[garyclark]

I never thought about it, but we’ve watched politicians lie to us our whole lives, so that’s why we’re not keen on picking up on these signs because we see them all the time. 7:36 😁😂🤣

[jakethetool]

My experiences tells me that if you suspect it, you already know the truth.

[deborahhedstrom]

Yes, Jason…..keep these lie detection videos coming please. Fascinating 🧐 content!

[adriang]

Okay, don't overreact. Say it with my head, answer quickly, Got it! Thanks man.

[LovedMyLoyalLongDog]

God bless you Jason & God bless your family!

[Mach]

Some good tips, but its important to know there are professional level liars out there (sociopaths) who are way past most of these detection methods. Be safe!

The tells don't always work.
The more you know the person the more accurate assessment you can make.

[iamtheequalizer]

Bro I just came across your channel and I'm hooked. I've been binge watching your content all day. Keep up the good work, sir. This is excellent content.

[CombatVetTom]

VERY good informative video!
And I like that you say God bless too!
Well, thanks for this and the other so many good videos you have out there.
God bless you and your family too...

One cultural note regarding head nodding: I once worked on a project in 1999 that took me to India and part of my orientation was learning about differences in communication. Specifically, I learned and saw that in India head nodding side to side (really a figure eight motion) means “yes” but it obviously means “no” in western cultures. I saw this demonstrated again a few years ago when talking to a CEO who grew up in India who was nodding his head side to side - and agreeing with multiple facts that he agreed were obviously true in a context where there was no reason for him to disagree. So his words were saying “yes, yes, yes - I agree” but his body language in the form of a side to side head nod was saying “no, no, no.” This was very disconcerting until I remembered my cultural training from 20 years ago. So I immediately shared this observation with my colleagues and HR (because many had bad feelings about their interactions) and this really cleared up a lot of confusion and misunderstanding…. While im sure this isn’t true for everyone from India, it’s important to be aware of the potential for misreading body language for this segment of the population. Thanks

Thanks for another helpful training video.

Proxemics is the study of human social use of space. At arm's length it is harder to deceive than when across the street or when talking on the phone because the minor symptoms of deception are muted by distance. Interview rooms are small for this reason. Interviewers may practice deception as well. Interviewing across a desk masks body language but there's a tradeoff between reading the interview subject and hiding interviewer deception. Besides, we humans are uncomfortable with strangers at close quarters.

I like the statements about "normal human behavior." Quite a few professionals tasked with hiring do not recognize what is normal human behavior and this makes most job interviews counterproductive. As for questioning suspects, the adversarial relationship is not normal. Or is it?

Professional actors would seem to be skilled at deception, but actors are usually not within arm's length of their audience. If recorded on video, the actor's best "take" is recorded, according to a script, with just the video crew and director--not present in person.

Speaking of actors, a disciplined military sentry has hundreds of hours practice at a blank stare and neutral expression while observing and listening. That isn't normal human behavior, but it is professional. Is a thousand-yard stare taken to be deception? Holding perfectly still is difficult but "sound off--don't nod" and the requirement to remain motionless can be read many ways. It's normal human behavior to cringe and become defensive when yelled at or accused of wrongdoing. Shock therapy is still a part of military training--a valid part, because the enemy is going to yell and accuse and threaten. "You have my attention, sir, my FULL attention!"

[DJcyberslash]

When you get accused of some B.S. it's not unlikely to freak out. Especially if you're likely to be being profiled for something you have nothing to do with. That's a normal reaction to the percieved injustice or bias.

Love these tips!! It would be interesting to try the tips on famous big lies. For example, Bill Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" struck me as an overreaction lie. The head nod did not give him away, but his overreaction did. Trump's reaction would have been, "I never met that woman." All the politicians that promoted the "Big Lie" would be an interesting study.

[mariusneumayer]

Excellent. Over reaction on my wife NOW X when she got caught in lies and cheating. Watch part 1 as well. Lots to learn. I believe what I have learned from your videos gave me a confident understanding what I went through, I was right all along. I wasn't sure at first but, in the end "what happens in dark always comes out to light".
