You want them to know what those are too.

So one thing that we noticed is on lies, that was one of the biggest indicators.

So in the Lie to Me game, we ask you to do two things.

We ask you to tell us an embarrassing story, your most embarrassing story, and then a fake embarrassing story.

And we want to see if we can tell the difference.

If we cut the clips, can we know which one is the fake one?

Yes.

And it's amazing.

You see the same danger zone cues over and over again right before someone's about to lie and tell their fake embarrassing story.

They go, okay.

And they lip purse right before they're going to do it.

And that's because we don't like lying.

Our body knows it's going to get us into trouble.

So we're like, stop it, stop it, stop it.

And we hold ourselves back.

You ask a woman, how much do you weigh?

She'll go, mm.

Like literally close those lips because no woman wants to talk about how much she weighs.

So it's a withholding gesture.

And so that's the first thing is you want to look for some of the bigger cues, withholding gestures.
