How does Derren Brown do it?

some of his stuff is just mind-boggling, like incomprehensible. How does he do it?

 

Are you watching the Great Art Robbery?

It's all in distraction - if you know what someone's going to do you can work against it

 

yeah ^_^

But it's bigger than that. I watched his show from last week and he's sitting in a room with random people pretending to be a spiritualist, he knew which of their family/friends had died and loads of traits about them having never met any of the people before. Crazy.

 

Pretty sure most or all of his shit is faked... I remember the lottery numbers prediction in the UK years ago, if he knew how to do it then why didn't he buy a ticket or get a friend to?

 

because he can't really predict the lottery. The trick is making you believe he can.

Its also not faked I believe.

 

Lol he's an illusionist - it wasn't supposed to be predicted.. he's not actually magic :nuts:

 

Ye it's all illusions, not magic. We watch it for fun, shouldn't be taken literally
