On October 2, Brown attempted to outsmart the roulette table by predicting the winning number based on the ball’s speed and trajectory. He used £5,000, which he obtained by hypnotizing a passerby, with the goal of winning £175,000 for them. Filmed with hidden cameras at a secret location in mainland Europe, Brown ultimately made an incorrect bet on black 8, while the winning number turned out to be the adjacent red 30. The show concluded on this unexpected note, with the accomplice assured they would be reimbursed the £5,000. A stagehand was seen at the end of the show holding a large cheque for £180,000, the amount the accomplice would have received had Brown’s prediction been correct.

Later that evening, Brown expressed his disbelief on his blog, stating he was “still reeling from tonight’s escapade.” In a humorous YouTube video the following week, where he impersonated Stewie Griffin, he candidly admitted, “I messed it up,” labeling the experience an “epic fail.”
