When I did see the lottery thing I thought it was lasers until he moved a few of the balls a bit to better center the numbers and I don't think the lasers could have tracked the movement perfectly like that and I'm sure if you did the turning of the ball stand frame by frame you would see the numbers moving with it. The lasers would have to be within the ball but I don't know if the image of the number would be that clear if it was coming from within.
I did kind of think the video to stick you to the seat was to reinforce the suggesting he was doing before it but I tried to think to myself that the video was doing what it was supposed to to try to stick myself in.
Some of the things I liked from him is where he takes peoples watches and wallets just by asking and talking quickly to confuse them. Where he tells the race track cashier people that losing tickets are winners and gets paid out for it. Tricking that guy into thinking he wanted a red bike instead of what he really wanted and the guy was certain that it was a bike he wanted all along. Probably some more stuff but when he has that guy play a zombie video game that hypnotized him and then they moved him into a building set up to have 'real' zombies trying to attack him and he has to shoot them like it is all real. He also has a detailed how to set of videos for card tricks called 'The devils picturebook' which I found really incredible to see how brilliant the tricks are.
