    Default I think it's amazing

    Thought this is absolutely outstanding design.


    I wonder how many times they had to readjust the stand and also is it possible to repeat?

    If people like this built the Lotto equipment like Power ball etc i have no chance of winning ever.

    I'm trying to work out if you know what's going on here and pulling my leg.
    or
    You believe that what you see here is what is happening?

    I used to have a fun trick that I used to do back in the Aurora days.
    I could turn the lotto draw on (terrestrial) TV and call the lotto numbers out a good 20 seconds before the ball came out.

    Of course the draw was time delayed so I knew the numbers in advance. But what was disturbing was that the draw that I would watch before hand had a different machine and different officials for the draw.
    The later machine was different, and there were different officials, but the exact same numbers would come out. It was disturbing that the draw was completely rigged.
    The impression was always given that the draw was live on tv. I wondered if the three officials were just three crew they grabbed off the floor and when you looked at the machine that once you knew the draw was staged, it was very obvious how they made it look like the real draw.

    For those who think this video is of something real, step the video frame by frame and follow one ball from the top to the bottom.
    Heheh... my advice is pick a red ball

    Another variant. How do they get those colours to line up? lol.



    This is what it should do.



    & here is why

    At first I thought the balls must be weighted differently and the 'mixing' pegs were finely tuned to sort heaviest on one side, to lightest on the other. But then I looked at the result and realised there is no way you could do it that perfectly. Not one different colour ball was out of place. Therefore: BS

    or look at the 3rd video I posted which proves it's impossible.
