      That's right Lithium, have a Bombay Bad Boy. Let's hope you go the way of your namesake song's lead singer. Soon.

            You mean those cards he picked up and showed to the camera after each box that didn't have a drawing of a mouse on the back?

            Certainly he could have used sleight of hand to pick up the card, palm it and show the blank back of another card bearing the same number, then show the front, then put it back down. I did notice that there was a cut from one camera to another as he showed the front of the card from the first box she chose (3) so maybe he cocked up slightly.

            A more sensible approach would have been to have cards with blank reverses in front of all of the boxes - then he'd have plenty of time while she was rootling around in the final box to be sure he had the mouse-bearing card with the correct number ready to do the sleight of hand thing for the box she didn't choose.

            But he picked up a numbered card and showed a numbered card with a blank reverse (whether or not the same card as he had picked up) to the camera for each box that she picked, not just for the one she left.

              As the numbers came up the weird box against the wall behind the balls fired laser beams against the plain balls which caused a light/heat sensitive material/coating to react, thus etching the numbers on the balls (like a ZX Spectrum thermal printer).

              P.S. Anyone see David Blaine catching that bullet last night? Although I thought him taking that punch in the guts was even more impressive.

                Penn & Teller do the bullet trick too. There's an explanation of how it might be done on YouTube (until they get it taken down again): Penn and Teller's Magic Bullet Explained and Revealed

                    I like the one where he machine-guns his mate and multi-coloured blood squirts out.
                    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

                      I thought P&T revealed how they did their tricks anyway, isn't that the controversial part about them?
