The National Lottery one was the one where he claimed to use the phenomenon of 'wisdom of the crowd' to predict the lottery numbers. This is madness. It's one thing for a group of people to be more accurate than individuals in guessing, for instance, the weight of a cow, as their errors will cancel each other out. To suggest that the same phenomenon can be used to predict random number is madness.

I stopped watching Derren Brown after that.
