Criminal Hypnotism

There's a story making the rounds about a criminal hypnotist who is operating in Northern Italy. The fellow supposedly hypnotises the shop girls and bank tellers and gets them to hand over hundreds of euros. Then he walks out with the money and the victim remembers nothing about the meeting until the end of the day when the till is several hundred euros short. The "evil hypnotist" angle is hard to resist, but this crime has nothing to do with hypnotism. This guy is a con artist, not a hypnotist. Here's a link to the CCTV of the crime.

I plan on getting out front on this one. This isn't the sort of coverage that we need.

Street Hypnosis Safety



Under-age Subjects

This subject came up in a recent class. A student asked about hypnotizing teens and children. Youngsters make wonderful subjects and they really enjoy the hypnotic experience. They can be very animated and entertaining subjects, but the hypnotist needs to be careful here. Always get a parent's permission before hypnotizing a minor. Although hypnotizing a minor is not a crime, this could be a really ugly situation if the parents object to the child being hypnotized. You don't need a signed form, just a nod from Mom or Dad will do. Kids will beg you to hypnotize them, but always ask for parental consent. Let's keep street hypnosis fun and safe!

Keeping A Subject in Hypnosis - The Secret














How Did He Do That?
Some readers and youtube viewers have asked how I got the subject in my last featured video to stay in hypnosis for so long since I was not talking to her. As you know, left on her own, a subject will eventually emerge from hypnosis all by herself. Here's the secret. Simply tell her "With each exhale you go deeper into hypnosis and with each exhale, count silently backwards from one hundred, one number with each exhale." That will keep her busy and in trance at least until she reaches the number one. Also, No, she wasn't really there for three days. That was a joke. :-)

Featured Video

This was an Interesting One!
We were in Hermosa Beach, CA doing street hypnosis. One of the group, Kurt, was working the crowd to find hypnotic subjects for us. Kurt said to me, "I have a good one for you over here." I followed Kurt around the crowd and came upon This Guy... Maybe it was all the tattoos, or maybe it was the fact that he was at least a foot taller than me. But I decided to pull out the big guns. I did a Gil Boyne-style arm-pull induction and he dropped like a rock. Thanks, Gil! Here's a link to the video.
