    I dont believe for one minute he actually did predict the numbers, but it was quite fucking brilliant how he done it!

    Instead of watching him I watched the white balls on the table all the way through and there was no movement at all around them.

    You here him say right at the end of the video:

    "Your seeing a whole year of my life right here"

    Which spells to me it was a little more than camera trickery, the guys a genius, Casino's use 4 decks of cards to deter counters, most good card counters can only memorise 1 pack, he can do all 4 whilst memorising all his players hands too. Probably why he's barred from every Casino in the world HaHa.

    Friday will be amazing when he reveals how he's done this...

    Well he's hardly gonna say "you'll never believe this, but I just decided to do this 5mins ago" ;)

    If that's the feed that was shown on TV, then it's terrible.. I just wached it (without sound) and the white balls are constantly out of view. hy does he choose to have them out of view while the real balls are coming out? If it was a genuine trick, he'd have had them in front of the tv, in view at all times surely...

    Eh?

    There were ideas being flung round that it was camera trickery I merely pointed out the fact that he said it had taken him a year to complete the trick... which was obvious that it was a little more than camera trickery.

    That wasn't the live feed numb nuts... it's someone recording the show from a camera phone, you can even hear him/her breathing in the background.

    Whatever he says is true after all!

    Unless Derren admits to it being something like this or adding the numbers to each ball somehow, it's obviously going to be bullshit. I can't think what he might possibly say that's remotely believable though, suppose it will be a load of old hocus pocus like usual.

    Or hypnotism... :lol:

    p.s sorry if I spoil this for anyone, next up Santy Clause!!

    I thought it was abit crap like and could easily be done with camera trickery. If it was him predicting the numbers then why did n't he write the predicted numbers onto the balls at the start of the program.

    Sorry numb nuts 2, I didn't hear them breathing in the background with NO SOUND on, as I said. I simply asked if that was the live recording.. thanks for the straight forward answer then.. I apologise deeply for analysing the only recording that I've seen.

    I was on here on my phone whilst sitting on the bus.. quality isn't great to begin with.

    The fact that you're giving so much credit to what he tells you means you're his target audience though..

    And a Nokia 3210 didn't even have a camera on durrrr

    The target audience isn't just anyone who's watched the video..

    In this case, it's the people who hear him say something like 'this is a year of my life right here' and then think WOW! It must be some super clever amazing trick that's taken him a whole year of work to come up with..

    I'm not a fan of his and never give a great deal of credit to anything he does other than his ability to manipulate people in various ways.

    Of course it is... he's targeted people who he thinks will watch him...and you have. Dont be fooled, you've been roped in like the rest of us, enjoy it.

    This has all been an illusion, you were never actually on that bus either...

    OK, lets say there's two rings of target audeince then. I'm in the outside ring of people who watched it on a website because other people were mistified and confused about some guy who can predict lottery numbers :p I'm in the group who doesn't care and doesn't watch his stuff on TV.. he's not really targeting me tbh.. he cares much more about you ;)
