I'm sure this video must have been posted before:

But I wanted to discuss the psychology at play here.
There's some obvious things:
1) This is day game, girls are low energy, alone, mostly bored with their bitch shields down.
2) The bravado of such a direct opener is clearly attractive.
3) Implied false time constraint. The implication here is that the guy has to go, which is why he's getting a number and that's all.
Now the slightly more complicated bit.
4) In most of these approaches, the guys turn away from the girl almost immediately after handing her the phone. In these, this is because the girl is unsure and gives them a verbal/non-verbal IOD. Turning away takes away the "creep" factor. And says "I'm not going to call you 24/7".
4a) On the first girl, watch her body language. She turns in to face him. She's clearly attracted to him before he even says "Hi". In this case, he doesn't turn around until she's putting in the number. This has the non-creep factor from 4) but also people *hate* being watched doing tasks. Have you ever noticed that your typing ability goes to shit if someone is watching over your shoulder? This is pure comfort building.
4b) Same with the water bottle. It says "I'm busy doing my own thing, take your time".
5) What I can't work out is the sunglasses. Any thoughts on this? Eye contact is incredibly powerful in game. Making eye contact with the girl prior to approaching would mean you could filter the girls and only go for warm approaches. Hiding the eyes surely makes you look less trustworthy? I really am at a loss to explain the sunglasses. And they must be tactical, both guys are wearing them and it's not particularly sunny.
Almost all of these girls will be flakes and fake numbers but still, it's impressive. Again, it's not going to work in most scenarios and it's a rather pointless pickup compared with traditional approach/attract/comfort/close methods which are less likely to flake... but the psychology here is golden.
Any thoughts on the sunglasses?
