I give my explanation for the video "Derren Brown at the Dog Track".

Note that this is my explanation for fun. I do not know for sure how this was actually done.
(EDIT: After discussion with various people I think this particular effect was done by a trick, not hypnosis/persuasion).
A previous explanation video of mine:

This video of Derren Brown was shown on television a good few years before it was uploaded on here, it was one the very early episodes of his programme.

Other guy tried to suggest doing more test and seeing if the phone would sync and blah, blah blah. I cut him off and looked back at the manager and said This doesnt work and I need you to replace it. You will replace this today. In 10 minutes he came back with a new late model 2011 Mac Book Pro with a new 3 yr warranty! My friend could'nt believe it! As hard as he tried. Them trying to say its this or that. Maybe his backup drive was bad. After watching it helped me out..Idk about anybody else .

I don't know if this guy does real things or not but I believed I could give people suggestions myself after watching this. My friend had difficulty in getting Apple to replace his laptop for 2 weeks, hours in the store. I heard about what they had done and told him that i WILL get you a new $3,000 Laptop today. I believed it completely. I went down there. Asked for the manager again. He came Out and I looked him with total focus. And said you will give me a new laptop today. The other guy...

he promises not to use stooges, but he never promises that people aren't pre-primed, which is how I had deduced this and a lot of them. Eg, did he or someone talk to the workers in this video beforehand? Other tricks of his do exactly that as the display... omitting it seems fair because it still demonstrates how one could be primed to do something like, in this csae, give away money when we all think that its impossible.
