What you guys think? Will he do it? Is it a scam?

It's Derren Brown. If anybody can do something like this, it's him.

I agree, he's frikin' AWESOME.

I'm skeptical, he's an illusionist, not a psychic.

Tho I love his work, so am watching anyways

Awesomeness must tune into this.

he's an illusionistIs this the correct definition? I'm not sure all of his work is strict illusion.

Suggestion plays a huge part, I think.

I reckon there will be a delay in the Lotto and he will be told the numbers.

David Blane vs Derren Brown

Ultimate battle of ultimate destiny will be like when Muhammad Ali fought a giant mechanical joe frazier, my memory isn't what it used to be but I think the whole earth was destroyed.

I'm skeptical, he's an illusionist, not a psychic.

Tho I love his work, so am watching anyways

Im not sure illusionist is the right word. He is more a hypnotist, what he does is real, it is just not always done the obvious way. It isn't trickery, he is just ridiculously adept at what he does.:thumbsup:

Whatever you call it, he cannot predict random events, hence my skepticism.

Whatever you call it, he cannot predict random events, hence my skepticism.Oh I agree, which is why I think this isn't about prediction, I think it's about misdirection.

Misdirection?

HEY LOOK BEHIND YOU!
yeah I already told showed you who won the lottery but you missed it oh well don't worry it was right no need to go questioning it now is there.

David Blane vs Derren Brown


Derren hands down. Why? Because David Blane never played Russian Roulette... live on TV.

There is another show on friday to show how he does it.

Anyway thanks for the post mudkip i forgot about this.

There is another show on friday to show how he does it.

Good.

I was let down by him once before with his explanation of getting someone to win many horse races in a row. Just getting a load of people to do it, and some win it, those who don't go home, rinse repeat till he's left with 1

We're gonna get Rickrolled.

I love how he said he would do it "Live", Isn't the national lottery draw at like 8 pm?

We're gonna get Rickrolled.

Imagine it was a trick to get the world record of most people Rick Rolled at the same time. :lol:

Good work pd.

Just noticed the actual draw is at 10:35, I could have sworn it used to be earlier than that... I'd love for him to not get any numbers right:lol:

Derren: "The first number will be 5"
Lotto drawer: "Its number 28"
Derren: "Oh, I knew that.. Thats what i meant to say"

ROFL

That'd be such a let down.

That'd be such a let down.

It'd be funny as hell tho :lol:

Shush its ****ing starting

If only he did this before the National Lottery. :lol:

He looks really REALLY nervous.

Omg how did he do it

Shit!, He did it!

just whached it omfg!

WTF he actually did it.

He ****ing did it!!

How.
D:

what did who do?

Derren Brown genuinely managed to predict the lottery numbers. Live on TV. ****ing amazing.

how does he do it

what the ****

he said a years work

has he planned this

did u go off the ratio of numbers and how they come out

he is a GENIUS complete genius, love the man,

great scott! i cant even find a cat picture awesome enough for this...

Don't. You are annoying.

He tells how he did it on friday.

He ruined it slightly, he said he'll show us how we can do it too. He can't let everyone win the lottery every week, therefore there is not a skill, but also not luck or chance. An illusion or misdirection.

I'm curious, will watch on Friday.

He's awesome. I'm gonna watch Fridays show!!!!

I'm pretty sure everyone is going to see it. I wanna know what the catch is.

eTiPcp9xYg0

not best quality but all i had to hand for any one who missed it.

Nice one Big But 5

Nice one Big But 5

no problem

Just found out that I'm not gunna be able to watch the Friday show :sad:

I'll be watching Michael Macintyre live instead :grin:

Will watch on 4oD or summat

he had a year so its obviosly done by ratios or somthing to that effect its just card counting but harder

Card couting is total different ball game.

You can't predict the first card in 4 decks.

@ TehFlyingTea, I doubt it's that simple or some genius mathemetician would have cracked it ages ago and be a millionaire. Or maybe they have and just kept it to themselves.

Still, I'm sure there'll be a catch in the method on Friday or everyone would do it.

:huh:

hmmmmm...... We're all gonna be thinkin thats so obvious tomorrow night

Not necessarily, he said it took him a year and I think if it was that easy, someone would've found out the secret already. Also they wouldn't be doing it on TV if its easy to do otherwise loads of people will suddenly win the lottery. I think its some kind of complex algorithm that not many people can do unless there quite smart.

I am quite smart :)

I am quite smart :)

Debatable.

A in chemistry
A in biology

at what level?

Higher level, triple :D

Obviously not that smart. GCSE? AS? A-Level?

GCSE.....

There is a chart on the lotto website showing how often certain balls have been drawn, So he can't have based his prediction solely on that because everyone has access to it... I have no idea how he did it but there must be some kind of catch like all his other shows..

First rule of illusion is if they make you think something is the key, then that's not it.

Darren brown is an illusionist, one of the best. But he's not a psychic and it's not some kind of crazy math. It's a magic trick plain and simple.

9pm, I can't wait.

4 hours to go till I'm a millionaire. Does anyone want anything?

SHHH It's starting.

SHHH It's starting.

Ahh suspense. See you after the break.

WTF is this thing with the mice? I guess they have to stretch it into a full show.

on that moues thing i would of piked number 2 for having the mouse in, what would you of done?

I hope he loses a foot.

i would not have the balls to do that knife thing

Edit: wtf no knife just the dam mouse from the last test, now little mousy back to cheeses avatar

I would. I woulda killed that fooking mouse.

I just want to know how you did it Derren!! Stop fannying about.

did any one catch that url?

This is all bullcrap, there has to be some scam way of doing it instead of this prediction nonsense.

Gotta love his showmanship.

did any one catch that url?

www.channel4.com/derrenbrown

I think that was it.

he is taking us throw his thort proses

translation: he is taking us through his thought processes.

:lol::lol:

ok so now we all have to randomly chose 6 numbers and donate all the wining to charity.

Someone probably wrote the numbers on the balls off-camera after the announcement ;)

Not believing any of that prediction crap.

He would have to confuse it at the end.

49
60
48

sooo 24 random people predicted the lottery, not Derren Brown

It doesn't work like that.

I want to see if his trick next Friday works too.

sooo 24 random people predicted the lottery, not Derren Brown

His idea.

Cant wait for next week. kinda scared too though :lol:

do you think he is in jail now for that thing at the end?

do you think he is in jail now for that thing at the end?No...

He didn't do that thing at the end...

His idea.

his idea but technically he didnt predict the numbers

his idea but technically he didnt predict the numbers

I know what you mean but the numbers wouldn't have been predicted if it weren't for him.

Now the question has to be asked, Did the winner of the lottery perhaps know Derren

oooooooooo

Also next weeks show looks scary i don't want to get stuck lol

Im sure this has been said before but Who the heck is this guy?
Is he like the european counterpart of David Blane?

Think Criss Angel. Now think Europe, apparently.

He's nothing like Criss Angel or David Blane, they're illusionist. Derren Brown uses psychologyand suggestion to predict and control people. It's odd but its good to watch,

All I need to do now is get a group of people to help predict the lottery numbers...........the problem is is that I would have to split the winnings 24 ways. :(

So....he's a hypnotist? :huh:

No, he studies the way people think in certain circumstances and uses that to manipulate them.

Hmmmm... well I'll be convinced he didnt rig it if he manages to control me in next weeks show. 16 tomorrow, might try get some mates to do that automated hand thing to try get the numbers

Still think the funniest thing he did was the Resident Evil/house of the dead game...

For those who haven't seen it, he tampers with an arcade game, so that when someone susceptible to it plays it, they go into a trance.

He took the guy to an abandoned hospital, full of actors dressed as zombies, put a gun in his hand and then brought the guy out of the trance.

The Youtube link won't work for UK (but you should be able to get it from www.4od.com). Hopefully non-uk residents should be able to get it from Youtube.

Whodini that was awesome, one of my favourite of his shows. Do you have the link so i can hide my ip and look at it again?

I haven't seen fridays show yet, But i heard it was alod of BS.. I'm sure everything isn't as it seems though, The adverts for his "The Events" shows were shown in reverse and he said something about them being events of misdirection... Misdirection - Backwards, I think we will find out how he did all this at the end of the series, Everything is not as it seems..

Derren Brown zombie thingy.

That was intense :P

Wow, I just saw that video of the man in the game and it was amazing. I really felt for the guy. I would've been shitting myself. Literally!

Is this a sign of things to come? :lol:

Nah that one was 3 or 4 years ago.

I heard a rumor one of the events is that he is going to play Man U by himself and win.
Might've been a joke, who knows.

nah nah i heard he is gonna win the premier league with liverpool! wata trick that would be!

I think that's true, in the adverts there was like a massive billboard thing in the background it said manchesterunited.com backwards (like everything else in the ad) also there was another ad in the advert for stucktomysofa.com which i believe is a reference to next weeks show and finally he was was juggling lottery balls i think...

the adverts for that show were really clever and they really got people talking. You might be right but i think it might be something different to facing man u though.

Ha that's a cool site.

That's pretty awesome. Not sure what the point is, being from the other side of the pond and all, but anybody who makes a webpage backwards is probably excellent.

Pretty on-topic.

Fix'd again.

I can't believe he did it, it was absolutly awesome!! I was totally flabergasted. How he did ti was pretty cool too. not sure if he was just teasing us with the 3rd explanaton.... or WAS he??
