    Not a card trick - my friend got conned.

    Try it with a straw, it'll probably work a lot easier.

    Not a card trick - my friend got conned.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQYATSRSJac Sounds like what you're talking about. Try using a straw like they do. Maybe you need a certain type of material to rub it on. Assuming this is the same trick ofcourse.

    What is this move called?

    I'm pretty sure I know what you're talking about, but I only know it as the "Tunnel Change". I don't know if that's its standard name among magicians.

    Derren Brown Events: Loses 5 grand is it real...

    Wouldn't that depend on the casino? High rollers bet 5 grand minimum and lose all the time. It's nothing to them, couldn't he just be considered one of those guys? Although saying that, it didn't look the richest of casinos.

    Derren Brown Events: Loses 5 grand is it real...

    I see your point, I didn't think abou iphones and such. I suppose that's very possible. I didn't catch him say about the electronic equipment thing, but you raise a good point with that. About the legality of what he was doing, you make another good point. If he was genuinely calculating...

    Derren Brown Events: Loses 5 grand is it real...

    I think this could possibly have been pre recorded. at 10:10pm last night, 10 minutes after Derren went off air, still inside the casino. He (allegedly himself) posted on his blog, saying thank you to people who watched The Events. I find it very unlikely that he had time to leave the casino...

    Derren Brown Events: Loses 5 grand is it real...

    Now that you both mention it, I vaguely remember reading that. Ifhe did do whatever was written on that napkin, it must have been something other than how he was claiming to do it, I don't think it's possible for somebody to mentally calculate all of the variables involved in such a short period...

    Derren Brown Events: Loses 5 grand is it real...

    I understand your point, and I agree, he has gone to great lengths before, and only 1 off, almost perfect. I find it odd though that he's presented himself as predicting a 14 million to 1 sequence on the lottery but not being able to predict a 37 to 1 roullete spin. Unless ofcourse, he did fix...

    Derren Brown Events: Loses 5 grand is it real...

    I'd be surprised if it was a way of convincing that the rest was real, because I think he will lose quite a bit of credibility with casual viewers now. You're right though, surprising ending either way.

    Magic with everyday objects.

    Tom Mullicas Expert Impromptu Magic DVD series is great. All impromptu as the name suggests.

    Derren Brown Controls The Nation - Did It Work On You?

    I've been enjoying them, but I can see your point exactly and agree with you. I think they aren't in the same league because they more like experiments than anything else, I think even Derren doesn't know as much as he usually does about what will happen.

    Derren Brown Controls The Nation - Did It Work On You?

    I think the subliminal image that people saw flash was intended to be conciously seen. It would deepen the belief that subliminal techniques are at work and therefore the film would indeed be subliminal.

    Derren Brown Controls The Nation - Did It Work On You?

    If you find the whole show and watch the whole show then that's no different from watching as it was broadcast on tv. So yes essentially, but who knows if you'll get stuck or not, that depends on you.

    Derren Brown Controls The Nation - Did It Work On You?

    That's what I meant by different idea, most people will just go looking for the video on youtube or something, which will be useless. Like you said the secret runs throughout the show.

    Derren Brown Controls The Nation - Did It Work On You?

    He claimed it was because on the internet it would be too low resoloution/quality. I have a different idea, I'm 90% sure I know how he did it. But I won't say because I don't know if it would constitute as exposure.

    Redline

    I think this looks really good but i'm not convinced it's worth it yet. Is it impromptu or atleast quick to setup if not? Also, Can it be done with something else other than chapstick, like a sharpie or bottle cap or something else more common?

    Brown Wynn Deck Review

    Okay first off I just want to say sorry for being another person to review this deck, I wasn't going to and it obviously isn't necessary but I'm bored and thought why not post my opinions on this. So the main point I want to get across here is that it's just a deck of cards, nothing more...

    Werm Tweaks and Jones Change 2.0

    Dude, it was a bit of fun, we did this after about 10-15 mins of messing around with it. As for calling it useless, it's no more useful or useless than the normal Werm or any other flourish. It's not a sleight, it's a flourish, and if were being honest flourishes are just a way to show off, not...
