By “near” I mean like a sphere of 10 Meters around them. You can’t manipulate them directly, it has to be a non-living object. You also can’t cause anyone else to die before their fated time of death.
So, how do you embarass them.
Trip them down the stairs? (zero injuries remember)
Drop their mug while they try to drink water?
C’mon, what’s the most embarassing thing you can do?
Hold their hairs that normally fall out in place until they are on camera then shed all at once.
Make their eyes water whenever they are on camera by pushing just a little too much air at them.
Wardrobe malfunctions are an option, but I think making them fumble everything would be better, so they try to hold a pen and it slips out of their hand etc.
Make the camera drift upwards so they look shorter.
