Do You Feel Lucky?

A Live Experiment

In the episode, Vanessa Van Edwards told Steven about a study by psychologist Richard Wiseman: people who say they feel lucky tend to be less anxious, more extroverted, and more open to new things.

Let's find out if feeling lucky predicts behaviour.

Step 1: "Do you feel lucky? No overthinking it, just answer honestly below" Steven Bartlett
