>>12093110Dunno but I went to a show featuring some overseas hypnotist guy. Tried to put entire audience ( maybe 200-300 ) into a trance, as soon as I felt something coming I snapped out, but yeah, I could feel something weird happening until then. So about two dozen people came up onto his stage at his command, he then whittled them down to about 8 subjects. He then got them to do all sorts of weird shit, like pretend they were James Bond, or go around the audience trying to sell imaginary books or some such stuff. For like 40 mins he basically had them doing that sort of shit, pretending to be chickens, or saying bizarre stuff. Snap his fingers and they would nod off to sleep in their seats. Eventually towards the end he told them to sit back in the audience, once they did he said some word and they all immediately jumped up, clapped their hands above their heads and called out his name. All of them, scattered around the audience, all at exactly the same time. It was pretty weird.
I have no reason to suspect any of them were actors, in fact I vaguely knew a couple of them from around town.
