Felix Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Derren Brown is the most awesome human being that ever existed. Discuss him. I watched him predict the lottery, it was live and so was the lottery on his TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I can't imagine that there was a calculation to it, there's just no way. Surely it has to be a trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Culpa Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hmm, paid money for a bribe in the numbers probably. If he releases his trick on television, I won't be watching, cause I'm in America and I'm guessing this is big UK news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 @Straw: Your Magician is ok but Derren Brown is better, like by big margin. @One: You can't control the numbers:/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥ ЅϯᵲåώӀӞ℮ᴙʀɣ−ɴɨɨ−ƈħåɴ ♥ Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Also, if he's going to personally reveal the secret, that means this is simply a trick, and that it's not real. [/logicks] Oh, and Derren Brown's a cold reader. Not a magician. Don't get it mixed up. Cold reading =/= magicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Cold reading is enitirely different to picking out someone in the crowd guessing their star sign, a question they had in their head, their name and so on. Watch Derren Brown "The Events". Cold reading is what that american twat does, Derren does nothing of the sort and pointsa out all he does is "suggestion and mis deirection". He doesn't even have to look at them. Party tricks don't come close to the things Derren can do. I was trying to find the Youtube vid where he shows people how take someones wallet and keys just by asking for them, but unfortunately it was too awesome and has been removed. In "The Gathering" he performs for an ivited crowd for at least 2 hours, afterwards they've forgotton everything and can't recall any of it. That's a fecking mind waro right there. He memorised the whole of London and each place’s co-ordinates on a map. He let them pick a starting place, let them pick a destination, and what route they would take. He got it all right, he had an asatate in a box that matched the route on the map exactly. He is far better than any "magician" you could think of.

♥ ЅϯᵲåώӀӞ℮ᴙʀɣ−ɴɨɨ−ƈħåɴ ♥ Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 You do know that that means he doesn't do magicks, right? I know exactly what you're talking about. I just forgot the actual term for it. And "mind reading" is just a nerfed term for the real formal name of it. He deals in mind manipulation and hypnotism. And other sorts of mind tricks. He doesn't do magicks, though. And besides, like I said, if he's going to reveal this trick, then that means it's all an illusion of sorts. And if you think about it, if it actually worked, everybody would be rich and the companies who host the lottery would become bankrupt within weeks. You can't compare Derren Brown to magicians.

[b']Because Magic is real and he doesn't have the supernatural powers necerssary to do it...[/b] I know exactly what you're talking about. I just forgot the actual term for it. And "mind reading" is just a nerfed term for the real formal name of it. True. He deals in mind manipulation and hypnotism. And other sorts of mind tricks. He doesn't do magicks, though. Oh yes, yes he does. The floating table for example. And besides, like I said, if he's going to reveal this trick, then that means it's all an illusion of sorts. Which would count as a magic trick... However, I find it unlikely he would, I get the fealing it's an equation of sorts, god knows what though. And if you think about it, if it actually worked, everybody would be rich and the companies who host the lottery would become bankrupt within weeks. Derren Brown is too awesome, no other living sole could do it. He's actually suggested that others should try it out once he reveals the method. You can't compare Derren Brown to magicians. Yes, yes I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It will all be revealed by Derren himself on Friday." Oh, and my guess is that those are specialized balls which allow you to change the numbers on them electronically. He gets the numbers from the live drawing, and has the people in the back change them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how a lot of tricks are done. Rich people pay people to make things that help them achieve them. That's why the best tricks are the ones that use the least amount of objects you bring yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 If this was a one time deal it could just be a lucky guess everyone gets then once in a while.... No big deal... or it was a bribe if you wish no to believe the lucky guess. It's not hard to bribe someone.... =/ and all.... besides i don't even know who DERREN BROWN is... so he's not all that great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really just think you don't want him to be as awesome and smart as I think he is:/ He's not particularly rich and he doesn't rely on props in order to perform, save for the occasional blind fold.

He reads minds and does other mind tricks. Those are impromptu. You don't really need anything, and even if you do, it doesn't cost too much.
