Do you know how a ouija board is suppose to work? Clearly not if you believe you move the glass with comic superhero style powers 
With everyone lightly touching the glass (or what ever) someone will be pushing it slightly unknowingly.
Tiger - There's been more research into ideomotor movement than what Derren Brown has stated in his book. Eitherway you believe what you want, but i edge my bets with science.

Derren Brown is clever, science is clever, we far from know everything about everything though.

History has proved many things.
So Derren Brown is being naive and ouija boards will provide a method of communication to the afterlife in years to come?
The evolotion of fuel and space travel is slightly different to a couple of emos with a bit of card and an upturned pint glass 
I dont believe Derren Brown. I dont believe you talk to dead people through ouija boards. The fact is, I dont know, and no-one else can say 100% either. End of story.

duh...science never said it did know everything, just humans thought that, it's an on going process which will show facts, and it's pretty brutal unlike most beliefs once proven wrong it's chucked out!

I don't even know what Derren Brown did or said tbh I'm basing it on the fact it's ludicrous (not the rapper).
However if you wish to believe it's real as governments haven't tested it either way then knock yourself out. I suppose it must be cool living in a land of Fairies, Leprachauns and Santa

I can tell you 100% that you can't talk to dead people through some letters on a bit of wood and a glass, they're dead.

You can easily test ideomotor movement by holding a pendulum and visually force it in a direction. Eventually you're able to control the movement without even realising it.
And there are plenty of theories into brain visualisation, whereby if you believe that something happens, you will eventually "see" it happen - ie: ghosts etc
And yes science doesn't know everything and like kev said, sciencest never said they did either but slowly theories are being proven.
And if you're wanting to read more look at 'muscle reading', often used by "fortune tellers".

I used Quija boards a few times when I was at high school and college. Only once something "strange" ever happened. I can't remember why but I stopped playing (probably bored or something) and I got an absolutey agonising pain in my kidneys. It felt like they were being ripped out. It doubled me over in pain and almost brought me to tears. It lasted about 10 minutes then completely stopped as fast as it'd started. I put it down to coincidence though as the other times absolutely nothing happened that couldn't be explained.

i did one once when they did it on that derren brown thing, was a load of bollocks
i have afew ghost stories though, my office is in a building that is hundreds of years old and well known to be "haunted". it used to be the work house master's house back in the day, anybody that died in the workhouse was buried where the back garden is now. funnily enough though, the ghostly experiences point more to my boss' ex wife haunting the place

Because the spirits might eat you or because it's such a retarded idea?

I think it's more because people could become mentally disturbed if something happened that was caused by either another person in the group or by whatever else is at work, should there be something else.

Ouija Boards = Kidney stones 
Does Tiger really think the Earth is hollow?
