We had this on series link....now i don't even watch it just delete it everytime 
As saids before i had a lot of respect for him before all this crap now i can't stand him 
Worst thing he ever did though was hypnotising that guy to make him think he was in a Zombie situation! God knows what damage that will do to him in the future.

I thought the actual idea (although seemed VERY set up! Was pretty decent!)
Then you realise, how set up the whole thing really is... Not getting it right at the end made me laugh.

there are people on here who've said in the past they use a similar technique for real.
Can't remember who it was, but basically they go a casino and watch a empty roulette table a while (the guy operating the table has to spin even if no one plays).
The operators are constantly spinning the ball and as such, just have a knack to throwing the ball, when they get bored they just throw it the same again and again, same technique, same power of throw... look at the general area it gets thrown from and where it lands...
Then approach the table, look at where he throws from and spread a few around that area.. generally win a few and then leave.

That is a technique I have heard of before, but tbh I think other than if you're some rainman type freak its next to impossible to be accurate.

It is possible with enough practise to spread bet, but to get one number spot on, isn't exactly easy.
Like Paul said, was machines for it, the same way Derren brown did it, left foot for 0, right foot for the ball, then it worked out the number. So it is possibly to estimate the number.

The squash ball thing look incredibly fake, the ball was so fuzzy throughout the whole thing, and the guy who supposedly gave him money looked completely fake, who watches TV smartly dressed and with their hair all done

What was hilarious about that, was the fact they bloke was supposed to be 'watching the program' at the same time (because it was live wasn't it?  ) - yet the tv was facing away from us when he got the phone call and answered it, and he was 'supposedly watching it'...
Yet he didn't seem to react to the fact that he'd be looking at himself on the tv (as he'd be seeing what we were seeing) answering the phone. Instead, he stood there bemused and seemed quite amazed / shocked when he was shown there was a camera man outside...
Urm... surely your first reaction seeing yourself on tv answering a phone, would be 'oh there must be a camera man pointing at me'...
Oh yes, that's right, it wasn't live... he wasn't watching the program... therefore it was all nonsense (AGAIN).
Derren Brown is so shit.
Plus no explanation why they picked that goon.

He was a rich twat with a lot of disposable income by the look of it! Was probably his porsche he walked past on the way out.
Only had it on the background as we had people round, but I was bored and watched more than I should of
