Derren Brown

That picture had me in stitches.

I watched it but it didn't really register in my mind?

Maybe I just couldn't be arsed getting blagged. Or maybe he didn't want me to be rich?

Exactly right. He's a con artist. That is the biggest blag ever.

We all know it was camera trickery. I've never heard so much crap in my entire life.

How the F**k does he walk backwards across that road in the ad for his show and miss all the traffic? he does walk into a bike though and it's really surprising that I wasn't riding it with the F***ing luck I have on me bike!!

Nobody noticed the car going the 'right' way.

1. Apparently he's banned from the lottery
2. They did the predicting during the lotto was being drawn, so couldnt have had a ticket
3. Hes immense but i can see why you would want to smack him haha
4. Cant wait till next weeks
5. You reckon people will be having 'lottery parties' of say about 24 people?

Yeh i saw that!
Proper confused me

The only people who will possibly even believe his bollocks tonight are stupid people.

The left side of the screen was frozen (similar to the way Sky put the big massive badges on the pitch that move with the cameras) while somebody replaced the balls after the draw. And the moment the left hand side was switched back has already been captured - because whoever replaced the balls didn't push one of them down far enough.

it's the reason why he wasn't 'interested' in the bonus ball. It gave the researchers extra time to put the 'predicted numbers' in place.



If any of it was remotely true he could have told us his 'prediction' before the draw was made, as nobody could buy a ticket anyway.

Used to think some of his programmes were half decent but now I've just decided he is a tosser for trying to blag people.

Looks like the little ball is gettin' it ooon with the rack there. To be fair, it is a nice rack though.

But isn't that kinda the point?

I'm really looking forward to the subliminal thing next week though, definately going to see whether that works on me.

Oh. Wrong thread

You're just wrong full stop.

No, I can see why some people don't like it, but I personally enjoy watching it.

Don't care either way, I find it entertaining to watch because it's still clever even if it is all bollocks.

Clever an bollocks is a contradiction

 merely an observation

Derren Brown Lottery Prediction - REAL EXPLANATION EXPOSED - How did he do it? All revealed!!!!

Sneaky b***ard

Some of the stuff he does is decent, some of it is pure sh*te.

The lottery thing fell into the latter, some of his earlier work fell into the former.

If it was a split screen thing, what about the audience...?

There was none when he performed it live.

Hmmm

All the things about how there was nobody so that "nobody could benefit" from his act was ridiculous. If he showed us his prediction before the actual draw there was no way anybody could have used them to win, everybody would have submitted their numbers before.

Like someone said before, if he revealed his "prediction" beforehand, I would have been impressed.

He wasnt allowed to do that though, as people would have brought the ticket
The only way you could do it is if he did it 5mins before the draw

The man's an illusionist and he does his job very well indeed that's why he's on TV,
for anyone to suggest that the stunts are genuine shows how good he is.

Precisely.

Hence the whole point of illusions, misdirection and 'magic'.
