So what do people think of him? Most of his things on tv seem to be wrong anyway, glueing people to their seat?

Claims to be able to predict the lottery and glue people to their sinks.

Sounds very much like Uri Geller. I never believed him either. Roll Eyes

I saw the show this evening and it nearly worked... I just enjoy seeing the things he does and either predicting the outcome or predicting how it is done.

For those who didn't see, he played subliminal messages throughout the show and then a movie clip which can cause people to become stuck to their seat. Personally it didn't work... I think I saw through most of what he was doing though and expected certain things. One of my friends apparently became a bit stuck to their chair... For me it felt like I was pulling 2g in my legs for a few moments and that's about it.

I am seeing him live in March which I am really happy about. He just fascinates me.

Technically yes he did predict the lottery but he can also predict a lot of things, usually though it is influenced decisions and on rare occasion he tells you what he did.

I watched his programme today, and sadly I can't say his trick worked on me, although I still think he's a great entertainer.
