Any number of mentalist tricks, hard to know which one or combination without actually being there. Mostly it's 23 being the most common random number people come up with besides for 7, before you even get into the power of suggestion.

No, I want you to think about the Unabomber, Sandy Hook, Betty & Barney Hill, 9/11, Rendlesham Forest, Hy Brazil, Hyperborean Culture as a practical possibility, Agartha, Neuschwabenland, Phil Shnieder, Dulce Base, The Challenger, Groome Lake, Zionism, etc.
Not fucking magic tricks kid. Educate yourself.

prestidigitation
Prestidigitation is the process of doing a magic trick by hand, also called "sleight of hand."
god damned OP, that is an impressive word,
PS: You should have elaborated your story more, it was not involving enough, it was just the bare facts.
