He didn't study lottery tickets for a year, and then make an educated guess. Thats just silly. Its a tRiCk. mAgIk.

It's very likely split-screen and the link posted previously has evidence why.

To be honest it's a bit of a waste of time if it was that simple isn't it? Split-screen is something anyone with decent video editting software can do in 5 minutes, very few people KNOW what he actually did and no one on this forum are one of them people so as far as I'm concerned we'll go with "it was just a trick".
