A few weeks ago, Darren Brown managed to predict the national lottery results live on British TV, minutes before they were due to be released. The whole nation, and the international community were amazed. For the next few days the internet went on a frenzy with both sides of the argument giving their opinions: he faked it or he has real powers. A short time later he revealed how he managed to do it; faker.

Now, he and channel4 have released a new website that explores the science behind the art of scamming people by making them believe in fictitious powers. You can find it at www.scienceofscams.com .

It’s mainly a series of videos from Darren and his assistant Kat. They trick you and other people into believing their scams such as a ghost appearing in a doorway and a moving psi wheel.

It’s a great website with cool explanations to some of the most talked about so-called ‘phenomenon’. There’s also a section giving you a Facebook app to scam your friend.
