- Former FBI agent and body language expert Joe Navarro is back, this time to breaks down the non-verbal ways we communicate using facial expressions. What does it mean when we scrunch up our noses or show tension in the glabella? Joe also goes deep into chirality, and equates this concept with some of the most quizzical of human expressions.

I feel bad for his kids. They could never lie to him
Most parents already know when you’re lying anyway 🤷♂️
@@chrisclay9704 solid counter argument :think emoji:
dad i dunno go skool
*joe stares in the eye*
Haha.
If you're a great parent, your kids will never have a reason to lie to you
Not saying that kids don't lie, but kids react differently towards their parents based on how they're treated by them
his kid like: "i didnt eat the last chocolate!"
FBI dude: "your eyes, your eyebrows, your smile-"
Kageyama Tobio XD!
"...chocolate all over 'em, this isn't a tough case."

I would love to study or have more information.
@@judygordon1848 Just look at his bookshelf
@@tonyad291 That was an excellent show! Tim Roth was great!
@@SueBoo2 Absolutely. I loved that show.
I wish he had explained why heroes' masks cover their eyes and villains'' masks cover their mouths, along with the greater cultural effects of that trope.
If I had to guess- and this is purely speculation. Masks that cover the eyes make it easier to conceal their identity, which heroes generally aspire to do. While villains generally care less about that and sometimes want to be easily identified for notoriety and fear purposes. Concealing the mouth helps to more conceal what they are feeling; ie: smiling, frowning, grimacing. Again just a shot in the dark in my thinking on it. I have no expertise on the subject. Super interesting question though- thanks for posing it 🙂 very cool thought experiment.
@@callen9623 Also it obscures the exact source of everything they say. A villain can convey the "I'm so cold and powerful" stuff with they eyes, while being closed off and mysterious with the mouth.
Golden- great point and observation!
So everyone who religiously wears face masks are villains. I KNEW IT
@Basement Dweller Don't judge them. Maybe they have good reason to be scared. Maybe they're immunocompromised. Maybe they live with someone who is. You don't know. Even if you did, there's no need to call them names.

I hope he does a follow up about the people showing two different emotions simultaneously. That was interesting.
Yeah, I thought that was the best part.
This is like a prelude to his book so I guess he wants us to buy his books 🤣
ik right?? it was crazy how it actually worked when the faces were split :o
@@youtube.silenced.m Charles Manson was one scary dude
The left side of our face reflects our inner personal world. This is private and most people don't wish to show it to others. The right side of our face reflects our outer business world. This is the side we show to the world around us. For most people the two are fairly even. For more private/reserved personalities or people who are hiding or faking something the two will be starkly different.
I would say his face isn't blank. He shows interest in who he is speaking with. He's paying attention, allowing people to feel relaxed. That would be important to get an arrogant, defensive suspect to open up.
Actually, when one relaxes the face so far that everything sags, one looks sad. :)
@@g.strobl4458 I think if that feels relaxed, the person actually IS sad and has been masking.

"FBI agent explains how to read facial expressions"
Buddy just ask anyone with unstable parents :)))))
😂 So true. I guess that's a silver lining, lol
Not sure about that one, in my experience even when innocent you are guilty basically. Got asked why i was crying i told the reason and i started crying harder because i saw the look on their face that was 'you're lying to me'. Its more like if you want to know how to make a person look guilty even if theyre not
@@teardropslushi6230 Yup, that's definitely happened to me before
Welcome to the club, we've got bread and we got loafs but most importantly we have support 👌
What I'm trying to say is with some people, including me, we can tell by every micro expression, by every footstep whether or not we are going to get yelled at or not.
You have no idea how many times I've been looked at weirdly because I tell people I'm able to tell who's footsteps are who's and how they are feeling based on it xD
Or a narcissist partner
@@mage4423 that's because you've known them for a long time. Can you do it so well with a random stranger? I doubt it
"There were times I would look at a face and there was just something odd about it..."
My face : 👁👄👁
made me laugh
Lol
I was thinking maybe he was going to mention autistic people of which some have a tendency to not show too much emotion, myself included. But showing TWO emotions at the same time? That's super cool actually.
Maybe he was looking at someone like me with partial paralysis , my resting face looks normal but when I speak or express emotions it looks odd lmao
i’ve spent years learning about body language, macro and micro expressions and deception on a whole. this is the first time i’ve heard it discussed in a video-conferencing context. fascinating.
Would you know where to learn about how to decipher body language of manipulative, insincere professionals. who are not in their private roles, but in practised, conscious deceptive mode with manipulative intentions, accepted by the workplace to gain unjust power over someone unsuspecting in rightful need of real help? And some material on how to defend oneself efficiently once one realizes the deception? BEcause reading body language doesn't help much unless one also has the tools and power to use it for self-defense.
@@Medietos Everything everyone does is for a reason. First, you observe the "what" (what behaviors are they displaying), then the "why". Once you're comfortable with your answers you use that data as leverage. First though, I suggest you don't jump to conclusions and focus on labeling that person. Feelings aren't facts
@@shaenaz7337 Yes, thanks, problem is, I am severely traumatized and have lost my integrity and self-control. So evenif I have come to get some things, I am not able to use it atm.
Won't one's observation on the "why" they do sth, be subjective? Unless they tell me the why?
It's wrong. You need to study again.
Fascinating
Chirality is such an interesting concept! I've noticed myself speaking with someone who's expressions didn't quite fit their emotional and verbal responses, but it seemed like just a feeling (which often turned out to be true). I'm happy I can now put a name to it!
Yes, I can read people better than most, but I don't always know how I know. It's just a gut feeling.
Many people (including body language experts) say that is what they feel when watching Meghan Markle. Her facial expressions don't match her words.
@@LisaMaryification Her behavior could be a trauma response called freeze.
Im on the autism spectrum, and I've basically had to teach myself to read faces, and sometimes, peoples faces really don't match what they are saying or doing, and it really disturbs me at times, and this video wouldve made that soooo much easier. Im 30 now, and im pretty good at reading people, but these videos with this man are really rounding my ability out, and helping me avoid overthinking people
Reasons for a couple of these points:
Not being able to see the full face of a person can often be a major obstacle to determining aggression, hostile intent, and more importantly, self-confidence in the encounter. As for angle of view, we feel uncomfortable with the direct gaze because it relays tunnel focus, and again, tunnel focus is predatory behavior.

Eh.. you're right...
And how about people who wear niqab?
How can we read their face?
"we look at..."
oh, they're wearing a burka.
@@helloitsme4324 I think they'll probably ask them to take it off if they had committed a big crime and need to monitor them closely?
idk....but yeah we can't read them in daily life
@@theycallmedoorway9913 imagine how powerful a burka is for poker
I'd love to see an interaction between him and some autistic people (as one myself). Many of us tend to talk in monotone with no facial expressions at all, and limited body movement. Everyone is different, but myself and other people with autism also tend to be very truthful, although if I am telling a lie my expressions don't change. On the other end, I can't tell what another person is feeling because I can't read their faces for subtle cues, unless they are overtly acting angry or laughing. This video is a great opportunity for me to try to read faces!
He did answer a question regarding autism in another video and he says he likes to take each person as they present themselves and adjust how he interacts with them based on how they present. He may need more time to dial you in but I bet he'd be better than me 😅
i am also autistic, it’s very hard to lie unless i do it accidentally. i had to learn facial expressions as a kid. they gave me a chart with emotions on it and they took me out of class to talk about behavioral stuff to me. i think that was pre-diagnosis tho, maybe they suspected it. (i got diagnosed in a different US state lol)
i’m also an artist so i draw facial expressions a lot. it’s a learned skill at this point 😭
im extremely fidgety, since i apparently also have adhd. buuut i also stim (i shake my leg now) when im happy, so it’s confusing to see if im nervous, just happy or need to move.
the biggest problem for me is tonal issues. usually i sound very monotone because i have to make it an effort to portray an emotion... unless im annoyed because i get irritated easily. i also avoid eye-contact and people see that as rude… i had to learn to look at their eyebrows, forehead or nose. my eyes shift between them all.
@@Poedoco
Does Freddy Highmore portray a person with autism accurately?
Or is it Hollywood bull$#!\?
@@ronnym1977 I'd say he's pretty much accurate as a high functioning male. As a high functioning female, it's been studied that females are more epigenetically inclined to adapt by acting normal, thus the reason for the highly missed diagnosis of autism in women. I can say that I feel exactly the same way he acts, but have been taught by both corporeal and societal means not to "act" on those natural impulses. It's mentally exhausting to pretend to be normal. At the end of the day it is such a relief to shed that false skin and be myself. I find it advantageous and am jealous of the male advantage to be able to be who they are without complete social ostracization, which is what I experienced before I learned to "act" like a "proper female". Now I get the opposite: "You're not autistic, you act too normal". Aha! The key, my dear, is your correct use of the word "ACT".
@@alienangel777
So, it is possible for an autistic person to not be 100% truthful?
Please forgive my stupid questions as I know nothing about this condition.
I’m about to invite my friends over and just look at them

Not only does Joe provide an abundance of fascination information but he also has an impressive vocabulary.
I would love to know more about the concept of chirality with expressions and how it applies to criminality and the two sides of the brain. Completely fascinating!
@@sneezylasagne8534 Yeah, I think it's the conflict of emotions. Also,t he desire to hide the feelings to the world. Like putting up a facade to the world, but your brain does occasionally slips up subconsciously I guess in doing so revealing the true feelings on one side.
@Neal DoubleAA *cue FBI open up meme*
I would too!
I can recommend you this book I worked on. It delves more into how facial expressions shape our face (a cumulative effect over time of our facial muscles, such with any muscles), based mostly on empirical evidence. We split the face in two on the vertical, same like the FBI agent, a key element in reading a face. www.amazon.co.uk/Al-Ferasa-Art-Face-Reading/dp/973108858X/
I was waiting to hear him pronounce chirality.
So, my parents always told me I was ugly, then I lost a tooth at the corner of my smile so couldn't even smile, which was my only redeeming feature. When you spend your life trying to contort your face into something it isn't it has to affect how people read it. I have finally got my tooth fixed and gone no contact with the family and my life changed immeasurably.
Glad to read that last sentence. Wishing you all the best 😊
Sorry what you went through and I wish you the very best
Bless your heart. Good riddance!
Just had an employee interview. This was a great refresher to check my skills. Alan Pease is an Australian Body Language expert & an author whom I have admired for over 30 years. I have honed my skills through forensic interviews but after hundreds of hours of interviews (more like thousands), I can always learn something new.
I love it when people who are very experienced in their field debunk a factoid or myth very abruptly without much emotion, like when he says people don’t have a single indicative behavior for deception.
He started explaining some topics then left them unanswered, like the reason for differences between heroes and vilains in wearing masks
Ikr it's so annoying. Like the split face emotions, his takeaway is "something isn't right" huh? what does it mean 11:30 ??
I’m wondering if it’s covered in his books and didn’t want to give it away lol
It's most likely just how this page choses to edit the video to make it shorter.
@@uhbyoihbloiybloihybolgiyh Yea it made me so mad he didnt answer it! I would love to know when one half is showing concern and other comfort, which one do you choose
He jumps around ALOT in ALL of his videos, without explaining something he speaking about, then pauses (like.....) Joey to tea zhik rememaawww pir3ber wtf it was he wa0
The problem with reading my expressions is that they could be reflecting some random thought that passed through my head that has little or nothing to do with the environment or situation around me. One might interpret the expression correctly, but they shouldn't assume what it was in respinse to.
@Dominique Higgins It has everything to do with what I am thinking because what I am thinking has everything to do with what I am feeling (almost always). The particular thoughts I am refering to aren't exactly purely random, true, because they were inspired in some way by something preceeding them, but they are certainly fleeting--here one minute, long since moved past the next moment. And the emotions come and go with them--and are therefore fleeting in that sense. It is a fleeting emotion in response to a fleeting thought. I am perfectly capable of zoning out of my environment and going through a string of thoughts. If one of those thoughts inspires an emotional response and if that emotional response shows up on my face someone might think I am responding to something in the environment that they also perceive. But I am not. I am responding to a "random" thought that passed trough my head. Therefore they can interpret the expression and associated emotion correctly, but not what the expression/emotion was in response to.
I've definitely had those moments where, maybe someone told a joke and I smile, only to remember something serious and I immediately get a stern look. Just because the face changes doesn't mean your thought of the topic at hand has changed.
I’m guessing that the majority of NT people aren’t that easily distracted when engaging with another person and tend to be fully present in those moments so the whole reading someone’s facial expressions in order to gage emotion/intention is most likely based on the assumption that the person is completely tuned in to your interaction with them and giving you their full attention.
Yes, and a tense, anxious, exhausted, insecure etc individual may be wrongly taken for insincere or guilty. people, also professionals, are far too quick in drawing conclusions and making presumptions.
Sounds schizoid by your description.
Noticed his books are facing the camera. Is he promoting his works without verbally promoting them or is he being a sneaky seller?
Engel EInzelgänger yes, that’s not “sneaky.” I”m an author and if I had a related CZcams channel, you better believe that I would have a copy of that beast in every vid. Getting a book written and published is about 1000x harder than people seem to think, and book sales make a pittance. Promote promote promote. No shame in that.
Or they're on the show for himself🤔
Practicality perhaps...
you learned your lessons!
I thought this was going somewhere else lmao
I really appreciate the distinction of two emotions on one face can have. That point alone helps me be more aware. Thank you.
"When we are comfortable our facial muscles are more relaxed, we smile and laugh. when we are uncomfortable our facial muscles are more tense, its very obvious"
My unceasing and ever present anxiety: "and this whole time you thought I was a problem"
Just take this as entertainment, like psychology, it's not real science, so there re too many variables
The problem with this profiling based on superficial appearances is misinterpretation.
For example, I have lost count of the ammount of times others supposed that I was angry when in fact I wasn't, like at all. If anything I was intently concentrating on what I was doing at the time or deep in thought over some task.
Point is people make mistakes professionals included, that's why law requires evidence. People are too prejudiced as it is without "professionals" influence.
Are we not going to acknowledge the great job these behaviour models do in all his videos?!!! The accuracy 🎯
I never realised that some people have different expressions on each side of their face simultaneously. Facinating.
Talking about pupil dilation and video conferences gets my thinking: Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable looking at the reflections of ring lights in people's eyes?
It's definitely weird.
You aren't alone on this one
Mood
yes 100
not a fan of crest toothpaste commercials for this reason
Our brains already subconsciously know how to read people. He just has put the effort to learn it
As someone with Aspergers I always worried about the old beliefs about body language. We aspies don't have the same body language (eye contact, etc) and are often uncomfortable regardless of the situation - sensory issues, for instance. Good to know guidelines have changed.
Such an enviable skill, built through an abundance of study and observation. Thank you for sharing your study findings and intelligence.
so basically, if someone looks angry, they're angry, thanks.
No . ,.if someone looks angry . ,.they are not looks serious angry ., .coz they had a good heart too and be will appologize each others ., . lmao ., .loll
So easy
he means to recognize when people are at discomfort with others
Not always
exactly he's teaching common sense that we use in our everyday lives and just because the FBI uses it does not mean that we don't know how to either.
Sometimes I get told I’m look angry, when in fact I don’t feel anything but calm. I have been told I look intimidating or serious. I tell them know, not thinking about anything a feel anything is neutral or clam. I tell them it isn’t my fault I was born with my face. I have to actually think and force a smile.
This is really helpful for drawing caricatures where so much of the likeness and personality are dependent on capturing the expression perfectly
I wish he could go more in depth with video meetings/calls. I find it very difficult to read the body language via a screen and it’s be awesome if he explained more about this
Bring Joe back! We need more of his expertise
Reading non-verbal signs is a golden life skill.
I bought the book lol
@@soggypestos1293 is it good
Thank you for posting these videos. I have aspergers and cannot for the life of me tell a nonverbal cue of when someone is trying to ignore me or communicate a message. I also struggle providing the proper body language that makes people know I am nice, not cold or intimidating. I have no filter.
Is there a job reading body language? This guy does it professionally.
This just fascinates the heck out of me.
I noticed that guy has a book in the background called ''kroppen ljuger aldrig'', which really makes me curious how many languages he knows... Swedish is kind of a niche language
Yeah...Maybe he never read it, it looks more like part of the background set. I doubt it's his real library? Anyway, the book was released in 2016, written by actress Mi Ridell and it actually looks like it hasn't been translated to English yet. Perhaps it's got pictures? :)
I love these videos, they're so informative. Joe is a great instructor too. Wonder if he'll do an episode on the psychology of product placement 😉
Thank You, Joe Navarro! I plan to try your Zoom insights & hopefully add a new level of comfort to my meetings.
When we comfort someone, it's most of the time based on our experiences, what people do or what you want them to do just to comfort you, you do those things to comfort others cause that's how you feel comfortable or relief
When you’re skilled in perception management but also have anxiety so everything cancels each other out 👁👄👁
He probably has a wonderful relationship with his wife. Communication is key in a relationship & women do a lot of it non-verbally. If he's able to pick up on that well, he probably communicates with her better.
Even though I’m young, I feel like a majority of marital struggles are caused by that exact thing. Men don’t feel like putting in the small amount of effort necessary for truly learning who their partner is, and how to communicate properly. Women aren’t complex... We’re just not *actually* trying, in my young, humble opinion 🧐🤓

That split face part was pretty mindblowing
Thank you mr. Navarro for this wonderful and interesting information . I really appreciate that. 🙏🧡💕
Thank you so so much for this video! When the pandemic makes everything virtual and Zoom meetings rule the land, it is so hard for normal communicative modes to be relied upon! So to understand more about facial cues is wonderfully useful - especially the idea of how aggressive the direct eye contact face to face can feel after a while, which I've noticed for my daughter in zoom classes where sometimes it's just too much.
So thank you very much - I'm going to send this to everyone I know who teaches and my daughter's teachers as well! Useful to understand a bit more about kids behavior - and if you made an additional video about the topic focusing on instruction or how zoom warps normal behavior, that would be quite useful as well.
Best is to stop the harm caused to the children,masking,isolating etc.
Out of the many information he's sharing, I'm happy to know I read one of the books he's had behind him. Haha. Thanks, man. You've taught me to be more aware of my surroundings.
The TV show Lie To Me got me into wanting to learn to read body language lol love these videos! Thank you for teaching us!
Thank you for this incredible video!

This is super interesting!
great to go through these things.
we should all start to learn more about body language, and reflect how we behve and if we maybe communicate in a missleading way! 🙂👌🏿
Very interesting the whole talk. Especially the different sides of the face expressing totally different emotions.
“We spend an inordinate amount of time studying each other’s faces”
> laughs in autism
Thanks for confirming my own experiences. You’re talking my language. I thought I was alone with these things. Non-verbals tell me so much that I don’t need to ask many questions whenever I suspect someone is deceitful, sad, etc. in the moment. Lately, I can “peg & profile” an intention upon first meeting. Call me presumptuous…but, I’m usually correct. I call it “intuition,” and the skill can be learned if not a usual trait.
Very interesting! I love this videos, and the way he explains these subjects ❤️
Excellent presentation! Love it!
His face is asymetrical. Book'em.
Johnny Kabrare I know right? Statistically, it’s been proven people’s attractiveness is correlated to how successful they appear to be, and it’s proven “uglier” people get longer prison sentences than attractive people for the same crimes... so basically yes, people use looks to determine how much worth they should give someone. It’s so sad but true. :(
That's really funny ; D
And then you find out they were at the dentist's and that smug half-face was the remainder of a slightly-overdosed local anaesthetic...

I like that we have to wear masks now because, as someone with autism, this brings things onto a more level playing field where other people are missing at least some of the non-verbal information they would otherwise have as I am missing a lot of it in the first place.
His books are good but at the end of the day, even he will admit, u never really know
Your book has taught me so muchhhhh!
That eyebrow raise on recognition: absolutely, 100% unmistakable for all of us and an instant giveaway; if the eyebrows don't rise, the pupils of the eyes change, it is so very hard to not know when recognition has happened. That is dangerous for anyone who wants to remain anonymous to others around them. Not to see the mouth is terrifying. Not sure why, is it because we speak AND eat with the mouth? I was once stared at every day at mealtimes or in the collective sitting room in a university student residence by a person I went out with for only two months, who also lived in the residence. That experience is deeply recorded in my mind, it was hard to withstand it, and he accompanied it by spreading rumours to other male residents, who sometimes had the nerve to ask me personal questions. 41 years later, I recall that trial of endurance.
Dude this is classified.
its not lol
Sophia Nguyen i think they’re joking..
@@halicusnguyen8864 seltix ist cool
I find his point about the masks interesting, cause for me, more people have been asking if I'm okay, cause apparently my fake smile isn't portrayed in my eyes which is all they can see right now, but when I don't wear a mask, friends and other people don't (really) ask or seem suspicious.
It would be especially interesting for me if he could talk about ,,faked emotions" and be to recognize and decode them.
Wow,.that fourth point/example is amazing.
“The arching of the eyebrows is our exclamation point.”
Haha, love that! So true.
I have a theory about non-verbal expression asymmetry, tell me if makes sense. The person is feeling afraid (for example) when they encounter a known bully (example), but logically, upon processing the information, the person decides that his/her best option is to appear and in fact remain calm, therefore, he or she attempts to hide their first reaction as a form of self-preservation, however, because they haven't fully relaxed yet both emotions appear visible for a while. What do you think of my theory?
