i think by the slap he measure the size of her hand and he chose buttons because he could hear how many times she pulled her hand in the buttons, i think he just tried diferent hand sizes on his face and calculated the average statistics, the results should be 1-3 buttons only, the pain maybe helps for a adrenaline rush
It becomes obvious that the "talent" has little to do with acute pains. He's able to do it again without a further pain stimulus after his initial prediction of 63 (to the actual 66).
This trick doesn't seem all that complex. One could take samplings of 50+ buttons (because he told her to take something akin to a lot). Carefully memorize the general appearance of 51, 52, 53... buttons and then call the general appearance X + or - 1-2 buttons.
I have no second thoughts that Derren is one among the best magician's in the world; But in this trick, it is very clear that the Women is the insider, you can notice that she is jumbling in the counting. Counting 3 instead of two and bring one back from the counted ones to suit the Derren's prediction.
he counted by ears the number of buttons (like he knows the average womans hand picks up xx buttons), so that makes 63, then when he sees them he counts them real fast with mnemonics and says correct number.
She is moving more than 2 at a time and while she is doing so Derren is counting the rest of the uncounted buttons when they reach the correct amount that is left he gives her the signal by telling her to pause for a sec and move them back.
The first table is a scale and Derren can see or is told the measurement. That's why all the buttons are the same size and he doesn't want any dropped.
