alextheferret Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 anyone know what amazing trick hes going to cheat his way to next week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 go on then, how DID he do it? :)The only way he could've done it is with the split screen trick I think. That video above pretty much recreates the trick perfectly, even down to the camera shake. It's quite clear that he didn't predict the numbers beforehand and so the balls were blank when the program started (otherwise he could've shown them at the beginning) and were switched/written on as the numbers were called out before he revealed them. His explanation was complete drivel which just makes him come across poorly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain C Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 He cheated, lied and disappointed... Now that's pretty nuts .That is how all 'magic' works, of course he didn't actually predict the lottery but i'm sure he did something fairly intelligent in order to "cheat" and "lie" his way into making people think that he did..Some people seem to enjoy rubbishing people who they feel are deceiving them or who they do not understand. I've thought the events things have been a bit disappointing mainly because they involve far too much hype and preamble, but having seen him live he is definitely very talented at what he does. I do agree though that the way he did the lottery thing was so jumbled and seemingly pointless it got a bit tiring. But i don't think he would have done a split screen thing...that would have been far too simple, anyone could do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 If i was him i'd just burst out laughing at the end of the show and say "imagine how many people actually just jumped out of their chairs"So what happened on friday night?

Hannah Shucksmith Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I'm in two minds about his lottery prediction; on the advert that's been broadcast there are a whack load of hidden messages, and on the lampost there are 5 numbers that read differently to the numbers that really came out.

Greetings Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I think he hypnotized his entire tv audience into believing that he guessed the numbers. In fact, the balls were blank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Who cares about the damn lottery trick its past tense, i wanna know about friday's controlling the nation trick.

Apparently anyone who watched the film would be glued to their seat via mind control.If you read the thread and look at the poll you'll see it was by and large a pile of wank. And to Iain C, the disappointment relates to the fact he told us he was going to tell us how he did the Lottery thing and in fact just explained a complete pile of wank. Now there's a common theme emerging here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, that could be used by the INS to hunt immigrants.Shit, it could also be used by the Germans in the next war to immobilise troops.

Now there's a common theme emerging here...33 Members whom voted here against the the nation of millions who probably watched it is no comparision. Anyway i thought it was illegal to broadcast sublimininal messages after the scandal that happened years ago in the US when a subliminal message was encoded into tv dog commerical, and everyone who watched it bought that brand of dog food, even if they didn't own a dog...

My guess would be that for every one person it worked on there were a few hundred for whom it didn't.Americans aren't exactly known for being the smartest people in the world though are they?...

Adam-Griffin Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I drew a Chair with a Halo and ears. No idea why. Circles/Stone hedge didn't even cross my mind, ever. I had a weird feeling it had something to do with a boat though for some reason When this topic 1st appeared i literally had no idea who he was, Been watching all of his stuff recently and some of it's amazing How he does a lot of it i don't know, he's great at what he does though.

Riverside with boats. One person in our flat drew the circles but turned it into something else after. We also got a train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Quinn Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I drew circles (although not properly concentric, jus a few circles on a page) aannnd i got stuck to my chair. Maybe i'm just incredibly suggestive Although I also think it depends alot on your attitude going into it, I've always liked Derren Brown and this kind of thing so kind of want it to work which means I'm open to it (as he's always saying himself).Funny thing was though, I came into the room late, sat down and drew circles after only watching a few minutes of the program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
