Yeh it worked.
the wanky david blaine afterwards was more entertaining, to be honest.
his earlier stuff was good but lately his massively over-publicized channel 4 stunts have just been mehhh.
i liked it better when he used to debunk popular illusions/tricks to make an example of how fake the whole business is

Well I guess the way he did is very interesting. I have always believed the human brain is an amazing thing, from the subconscious thoughts and to what it picks up that we don't even realise. Guess he just emphasised this. Very interesting.
However it didnt work when he did it when they could stil buy tickets because apparently all everyone could think of was getting the money.
However next weeks show looks cool if he actually says what his is advertsing to do, controlling the WHOLE nation through TV.
Gota love Derren brown.
And mann David blaine is epiccc. His tricks are crazzzzyyyy. And catching the bullet at the end was insane

Aye, next week does look better tbh, though the whole human psychology thing is quite interesting.
What worked? His ability to hype up nonsense? He showed the winning numbers and then made up a series of math problems to show how you arrive at the numbers presented. He's working backwards.coke wrote:

There is no way to predict the lotto numbers. He's just offering up nonsense as a way to "prove" his prediction.
I don't mean to take the fun out of the whole crowd psychology thing, because that exercise by itself is interesting, but how he presents it to the public as some sort of mystifying charactaristic of humans is ridiculous to me. He shows how easy it is to manipulate a crowd through power of suggestion, and then that very same crowd that was allowed to be manipulated oohs and ahhs at their own idiocy.
You won't be laughing when we're all stuck to our chairs next week then!
You bet your ass I will. All the while staring blankly at my wall pondering the absurdity of man and smoking a fatty! I wouldn't be surprised if this guy is actually working for the lotto, getting all you poor sods to pony up a few pounds for the stupid tax that is the lotto.

Just watched it....Interesting, not quite sure what to make of it.
So at the end, was he trying to suggest that he actually did get the lottery fixed? That's the way I saw it.

I know fucking karate
Also, Derren isn't even a real name. His parents were clearly dumbasses and couldn't spell Darren.
i think derren and the lottery are both feeling like pretty smug cunts right now after all the publicity this has milked from dumb speculative morons.
ffs this is almost as lame as that time david blaine tried to stand on a post doing nothing for ages, and then even failed at that

I would presume no one bought tickets the week he did it since everyone knew he was going to win. That said, the lottery is played by fools, so they probably didn't think of that.
Lol do you remember the time when David Blane was in that glass box by Tower Bridge not eating for 40 days or something, and some guys got a remote control helicopter to fly up there with a hamburger?
He also didn't get a ticket so none of that came into it.ghettoperson wrote:

Ah, I didn't know that, I didn't watch it.
David Blaine is amusing. Didn't some dude throw shit at him or something?

See Dauntless, I'm not the only hater. These guys are no fun as well.
why would he not buy a ticket to prove it? The though is slightly entertaining, but obviously a fake
