Not sure if this has already been discussed, since I've only just joined,
but also notice how he sharply nods his head on the verbal cue word when he
says you're all very "a-tract-tive".... I've tried slowing down the video
but still haven't managed to see anything in the blind fold, though. He
openly states he's choosing the guy because he's staring at him.
What impresses me is that although it's an edited TV program, I get the
impression that his routines are still very fail safe, though didn't he
write somewhere about losing £50 the other day? :)

I think when he does the "tractor" trick with the student, the key is
in the blind fold!! Notice how he holds it out in front of the face
of the student for a second or two. It could very well have a small
picture of a tractor on it that would be subconsciously transmitted
to the student as well as derrens verbal cue's as you suggested.
Also with the boxers trying to lift up the girl. This is quite
simple. Whether they can lift the girl up or not, depends on the
posture of the girl. She is obviously one of derrens crew members.
When she stays upright they can lift here. But when she slouches and
creates "dead weight" it makes it MUCH harder for them to lift her.
