00:07

In 2009, a man, a journalist by the name Rob Walker,

00:13

wanted to find out this:

00:15

Is storytelling really the most powerful tool of all?

00:20

And in order to do this,

00:23

he went on his computer, and he bought 200 objects from eBay.

00:29

And the average price of the objects was about one dollar.

00:33

He then called 200 authors, and he asked them,

00:35

"Hey, would you like to be part of the 'significant object study'?

00:39

Which means that I would like you to write a story to one of the objects."

00:43

And 200 authors said yes.

00:46

So there he had 200 objects, he had 200 stories,

00:50

and I assume that it was with nail-biting anticipation

00:55

that he went on eBay again with all the 200 objects.

00:58

Would there be a difference? Would there be a change?

01:00

Do you think there was a change?

01:03

One of the objects was this,

01:05

this beautiful horse's head.

01:07

There we go.

01:08

The beautiful horse's head.

01:11

Now, this beautiful horse's head was bought for 99¢

01:15

and was sold, when the story was added, for $62.95.

01:20

(Laughter)

01:22

That is a slight increase of 6395%.

01:26

So, was this a one-off situation?

01:29

Not really,

01:30

because he bought the 200 objects for a total of $129,

01:34

selling them for $8000.

01:40

Now, that's insane.

01:42

But you know what's even more intellectually challenging to understand?

01:45

How can you and I

01:48

go to the movies and pay good money to watch movies like James Bond,

01:53

[that] are absolutely unrealistic?

01:55

And we sit there; we enjoy the movie.

01:58

And some of us, we really enjoy the movie.

02:00

And we leave the theater, going like, "God, what a man!

02:04

I would like to be more like him.

02:07

I'd like to walk like him. I'd like to talk like him.

02:09

I like Bond.

02:11

(Laughter)

02:12

I wonder how I could be more like Bond."

02:16

And then this weird revelation hits you like from nowhere,

02:19

and you come up with a brilliant idea to walk to a watchmaker shop.

02:23

And wow! It just happens to be an Omega watch in that shop

02:27

that resembles the one that Bond was wearing in the movie.

02:30

And you pay $10,000 to put that watch on your wrist.

02:34

And you leave that store feeling more like Bond.

02:41

How is that possible?

02:43

PQ Media tells us that 10.5 billion dollars

02:48

is turned over in product placement revenue every single year.

02:53

How is it possible for you to be so easily tricked

02:56

by something so simple as a story?

03:00

Because you are tricked.

03:05

Well, it all comes down to one core thing,

03:07

and that is emotional investment.

03:09

The more emotionally invested you are in anything in your life,

03:12

the less critical and the less objectively observant you become.

03:16

And the greatest emotional investment of all

03:20

is falling in love.

03:22

Now, falling in love resembles a good story.

03:27

Do you remember the last time you fell in love?

03:30

Yeah? Good for you. It's a beautiful feeling, isn't it?

03:33

(Laughter)

03:35

Do you remember how you longed and how you yearned and how you dreamt?
