Derren Brown - Predicting the lottery before the numbers come out tommorow

Most disappointing thing I've seen. When the draws being made, the balls are out of shot. He's got some lacky with balls numbered 1-49 picking out the ones being drawed and arranging them on the stand out of shot. When Brown walks over to the balls they are perfectly arranged in numerical order.

No they weren't (trust me, having watched the footage about 2 dozen times, they werent)

so we're on for that £20 bet then, yeah? Im serious. Ill make it even better. If its a maths solution, if there is a mathematical equation that can repeatably predict the lottery numbers, I will pay you £200, if not, if its any other trick, you pay me the £20, deal?

Just a little reminder of what saint_clark has agreed to...

I hope saint_clark is better at spelling and grammar:cool:

for a moment i thought I had typed that stuff.Lol

Unlucky Saint Clark you are going to be £20 light in the pocket. If I was you I d hedge the bet by putting another 20 on spurs being beaten by Pompey as that is a sure fire bet.HR will do anything for them to be buddies again.

Doesn't matter to me, I used my formula to predict the lottery yesterday.

Has it ever been anything different then?

IT's good but it's wrong. That's a quid each you each owe me by the way.

 

Now I know why Rich Branson was so keen to get his grubby hands on the lottery contract!

 

I have heard people call the lottery a tax on the poor, I'm not saying that I agree, and I have a good friend who did win over a milliion quid a couple of years ago, but personally, I'd rather save the money and waste it on ESB.

Well I stopped doing the lottery in 2005 when a friend of mine was sacked by Camelot after finding a major fault in their system. He eventually got a very nice pay off but on condition he did not reveal what the fault was. So I have no faith in it all never mind the odds are too bad to be true, you only have a 54/1 chance of having a winning ticket and mostly the wins will be £10 which is actually of course £9 since you don't get your stake back.

Am I the only one who has never played the lottery?

Did you mean Post 98 Greenridge? Baj stealing my thunder eh....

 

Sorry fella didn't read the whole thread.

 

I believe it's done by splitting the tv shot we were watching in 2 so that you see the real time view on the right with the live draw etc but the left hand side where his predicted balls were on show was actually a 'still' which enabled someone to swap the balls over in the time it took the draw to take place and for him to write the numbers down which is just a ploy to buy them a few seconds for the switch to take place. Just IMO of course...simples

Next week I will predict the lottery numbers, well in advance of the draw taking place. I do not wish to be thrust into the limelight as I am a shy type, but at some point during the coming week, I will insert my prediction into one of my posts. Look out for it.

Which is exactly what I said in my post...

 

...except it wasnt a still, it was recorded footage, you'd be able to spot a still easily.

The second camera imo is only for playback purposes, he wants us to go down that route of thinking but it's a red herring, as is this post, or is it?

 

Derren Brown is much cleverer than we are giving him credit for on here, most illusion is very simple when you practice it often enough.

I use the word 'still' losely - I'm no multimedia expert lol. It was just like in the movies when they swap the cctv footage for a rolling footage of the empty room while the heist is taking place.

He can't be that clever , he can't even spell his own name properly.

Everyone knows it should be with an A. As in Darren.

Considering DB likes to provide clues to how he does things, and having watched it back a few times now, good quotes are

"Lottery numbers all up over the wall"

"ive been a little bit sick"

"ive done nothing illegal, ive done nothing illegal"

"you might want to try the same thing TOO" (emphasis on too...2?)

"This weeks glamorous assistant is O J Board"

The slip up on reading the total jackpot im sure is also a clue

 

Right.... I've watched the end bit in close detail.... they swap the balls. If anyone here has a recording of it, go forward to where he is writing out the numbers on the board, between 23 and 28 the camera freezes position, totally and solidly, it does not move a millimetre, despite being handheld and moving the whole time. So this is when the switch occurs. Secondly, go back to where he shows the balls in the holder at the start and explains the prediction is here but he cant show the numbers, you will notice that all the ball are perfectly in line height wise, now fast forward to a split second before he picks the balls up and turns around the little holder, 39 is clearly raised.

 

The balls are switched, and they are switched when he writes out the numbers 23 and 28 on the card. Its camera trickery.

 

I think it's done with two cameras, or two feeds to the same camera, somehow

This person on youtube has deduced the same thing

 

Exact Explanation:

A handheld camera follows him into thes studio, as we all see, however once the show really kicks off it is placed on a mount and the movent of the camera is added as an effect afterwards, notice how the movement is never forward or back. With the camera now (effectively) in a static position, its a trivial task to run footage on the left hand side of the screen that was recorded earlier, by the same camera, in the same position. The freeze of movement we see is moement before the cameraman picks up the camera from its mount and returns to holding it in his hands/shoulder. Sadly, the whole thing is blown by a) the freeze being too long, proving the camera is on a mount and the movement is added as an effect and b) the different position of the balls.

 

yep the end ball being slightly raised is what i noticed right away too. once watched again its obvious then this (the change) happens
