Russian Roulette

I was going to write about Derren Brown's game of Russian Roulette last night, but Green Fairy's already said pretty much all I'd say and she rants a whole lot better than me.

Actually, I thought the build up to the actual 'roulette' was more interesting than the stunt itself. I think what makes Brown interesting is that he doesn't really claim to be a 'magician' as such and always points out that his 'tricks' are based on psychology, suggestion and manipulation. It's not necessarily what he does that's most interesting, but the speed and accuracy with which he can do it.
