+Lag Spike Yep. I'm mentally challenged, too. I need to unlearn concepts like confirmation bias and self-fulfilling prophecy before I can be subject to hypnosis. ;)
+Lag Spike Hey everyone. Do a google search about Skyarza Hypnotic Control Star - search phrase online hypnosis free. Well its an awesome new method for using NLP and hypnosis put together a simple step by step way. I've heard some unbelievable things about it.
"Its hard to win a argument with a smart person, its impossible to win an argument with a stupid person. " Interesting to entertain that observation against being hypnotizable or not. The quote is from Bill Murray. Smarter people might not be so knee jerk paranoid and defensive as that can be thought of as on a sliding scale and not binary. Consider the mind being distracted and impulsive for less than preferable reasons. Reminds me of a response Christopher Hitchens had to the question, "do we have Free Will?" His reply, "... we have no choice." Ruminate on that a minute.
While it may be a slight stretch to say “smart people are more easily hypnotised”, it’s scientifically proven via MRI, case studies, and the definition of hypnosis that people who can focus better, i.e. better connection between the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, are more easily hypnotised. Besides focus, visual thinking skills, empathy, and imagination also helps the process of being hypnotised. All are often correlated with intelligence.
He is saying "only intelligent people can be hypnotized" to make you more inclined to want to fall for the hypnosis, because to fail at it you're basically saying you're not intelligent, and most people don't want to admit that, or think they're unintelligent. It is actually quite a clever little trick.
That's actually wrong, magicians have been known to use tricks like this that involve muscles in your body. What you're doing is once you close your eyes tighter and relax your eye muscles they want to stay relaxed and when he snaps his fingers you use more of your muscles. Same as if you stand in a door way with your hands to your side and raise them until your hands hit the door frame hold it for 20 to 30 seconds and then move from the door frame, WOW your hands magic float up. It's use many ways on parts of your body. Another one is if you ask someone to lift a glass of water, they do it then set it down. Then you place your hand over theirs and ask them to raise their hand while you keep it in place. Now while doing this you talk to them, say some bs w.e you want then you ask them to pick the glass back up and that it will be heavier and it will be. Because your arm is tired. Makes it very easy if arm is extended.
I wanna tell that he is not tricking u by telling u can be hypnotised if u r smart ......... it's just that smart people understand and can imagine the scenario very perfectly compared to dumb people ......... it's like showing a sad movie to a mentally handicap person ....he can't understand what's going on becoz he is dumb and if u show the same movie to the person who is mentally healthy he feels it ,he understands it ...... thus , like this the old man in the video says it's easy to hypnotise a smart person ......
It's more about 'willingness' to be hypnotized than intelligence. Not all smart people are willing to be hypnotized, depending on how they perceive being hypnotized. That being said you do require a minimum intelligence to understand what is being said. Maybe 'really' smart people are willing to be hypnotized. They don't equate that to being gullible .
Merman Atlantis well said. If you can utilize this method to quit smoking or lose weight which a lot of intelligent people struggle to do all of their lives, that's better than if you can't. The inability to utilize a particular tool is not proof of intelligence.
I could or could not be hypnotised I have very good control on my unconscious mind even I could create dreams and change them even when I close my eyes I can create images while awake and I am a artist some times I dream of a picture then when I wake up I draw it
Yeah, whole grades get hypnotized professionally to believe in god, my atheist friend was willing and he got hypnotized to be asleep while the believers cried and i just trying not to die out of laughter
OH MY GODS that was the weirdest experience I think I've ever had. I was almost verging on panic because I knew I COULD open my eyes if I wanted to, but something was keeping me from doing so, and I felt like I was trying so hard to open them, and they truly felt like they were stuck. Then he snapped, and BAM I flash them open. It did not feel like a complete conscious effort. I think I am going to do that again.
"The more intelligent the person the more they are susceptible to hypnotism." Evidence please. I am not aware of any peer reviewed scientific study that would support this. But it is convenient to say that in a video where you would like people to be susceptible to hypnotism. Not without irony, that is what we call "leading the subject."
Did you even watch the beginning? It makes logical sense. Deep in thought = state of trance = hypnosis. Those who don't think deeply or daydream, probably wont be hypnotized in general. Therefore, in general deep thinking people are easier to hypnotize.
Crying at movies is called immersion, not that it would matter what it's called. I have some severe issues with that video due to what I feel are inconsistency and handwaving. At the same time, I don't really see what use they get from convincing anyone. So, why do you care?
You have to let yourself go tbh honest...I'm actually very intelligent. Intelligent enough to know how to clear my mind of all thoughts and subject to hypnotism for instance...sure I have doubts....but I wash those doubts away before a hypnosis session.
They all say that...it's the most common entry of any "Hypnotist". Think of it this way, we all want to believe we are smart. So when it comes to opening our eyes we just don't do it, but if someone pinched you while your eyes were shut, they would open.
I did it and I get how it works. When he was saying to try and open my eyes I couldn’t because my mind kept going back to that image of myself having my eyes closed. I was basically imagining what that feeling of having my eyes closed would look like if I saw myself. So it goes back to the fact that ur mind can’t process two things at once. So when he was saying try and open ur eyes I heard him but I kept imagining my eyes were shut so I couldn’t open em. And we all know if u feel something or do something it’s very easy to imagine urself doing it. Very interesting.
I did the same thing. I was imaging seeing my eyes closed...as if in a dream, where I can see myself and my actions. So, all I could see where my tightly closed eyes as I followed his commands.
Yes, you feel it because you are empathic. But the fact that you're feeling it for an event that is not real and you know it's not real, THAT is a result of the hypnosis.
totally agree. when he said that mentally challenged people can't be hypnotized and that crying at movies means i'm hypnotized, i was confused because i have autism (which i was told is a mental disability) and i cry at movies. idk maybe i was misdiagnosed my whole life.
Hypnotism is all about opening yourself up to suggestion, if you go into it with a negative attitude of course it's not going to work. it requires a lot of focus. just because it didnt work for you doesnt mean that it isnt a real thing. stop being immature and blurting out curse words because you have no focus or imagination
+Thomas Edmonds that's also a good point, thank you for writting that. i thought the same. well, i am really unsure about that, what i should be believe, i am a open minded guy but i am really unsure and so i think it will never happen if i don't think, yes, it will works :) just try hard is not enough, if deep inside of the brain is a clear statement of, no, that "we" will not happen :) hm, i don't anyone have to fix that, that is a human right, to have an opinion or just not stick to one side . maybe that needs a lot of practise but who doesn't need it, will not take that time i guess.
Wiccan Spectre I’m an extremely open person and willing to try anything up to suggestion that’s one of the reasons I clicked this vid but personally it didn’t do a thing for me and yes I was and still am that hypnosis doesn’t exist because it’s never worked from experience.
Well ,technically , people are hypnotized because they WANT to be , and that is why it works . Its a bit different then those who arent easily controlled by media ,politics and adverting . I found that being subseptable to hypnosis has mostly to do with getting in touch with your subconcious and someone trying to guide you willingly towards positive thinking patterns . Its just convincing yourself to look past your concious thought . Some people dont think it works on them because they just felt too stressed out or hyper that day . Its really just someone helping you find your center and helping you realize your true will .
I felt myself being hypnotized because I wanted to be. In my mind, I think it would have been pretty easy not to become hypnotized, because all I would have had to do is some "self talk" to ignore his commands and not follow him down the proverbial rabbit hole that he was suggesting.
I believe he is only "Suggesting" that SMART people my be hypnotized, only to make you WANT to be hypnotized. Since no one wants to be considered an idiot, the suggestion he makes, makes you want to play along. You cannot be hypnotized unless you sincerely want to be. He is using this suggestion, so that your conscious mind, drops it's ego and guard, therefore rendering you more susceptible to the hypnosis. Someone who is paranoid and skeptical, will not be so easily fooled. So relax people, if this did not work on you it does not mean you are stupid. You are simply skeptical and guarded.
He does more harm than not by that intelligence BS. I'm especially on guard against people pandering to my ego. So going on and on about smart people made me think he's up to something and I was right. Five bucks after saying it's free. But at his site, he calls it a $5 donation. Now I'm even MORE on guard. What a fucker.
I did exactly what he said in the video and I swear I couldn't open my eyes until he snapped his fingers. I'm really creeped out right now. I felt like I my eyes were glued shut. :S
YoureHot On the part "imagne your eyes closed" I was imaging myself sitting on a chair with my eyes closed. That is funny because I was not sitting wile watching this video, I was in my bed
I am gifted with intelligence, and here's my experience with hypnosis so far: (keep in mind that I have not watched this video yet.) When I want to, I can get hypnotized with little to no effort at all. I know the benefits it can give. When I want to resist, I can. I can easily resist hypnosis if I want to. But most of the time, I conciously choose not to, since, when you listen to a hypnotist, most of the time your goal is to get in a trance. Some people tell you that you won't remember a thing right before they wake you up. However, this trick has never worked on me and I always remember who I am, what I was doing, and so on. In some cases, they tell you the exact opposite: that you will remember every last bit of it. Strangely enough this trick does work. Most of the times, when hypnotized, I will instinctively follow commands when told to. However, say, if I need to stay quiet, and I get commanded to say something out loud, I will wisper. This still happens on instinct...
+optimistically Sara I think that's the perfect explanation. When you're more intelligent, you hold better control over your brain. So if you choose to let the trance happen... Your brain will follow your command.
Clever, by saying only smart people can be hypnotized the majority of viewers are going to keep their eyes closed, if they really wanted to they could open their eyes but subliminally they don't want to think they are dumb. that is how hypnosis works, you have to want to be hypnotized.
There are several factors in the subject. One plan I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Hyper Hypno Blueprint (check it out on google) it's the most useful plan i've seen. Check out the unbelievable info .
Emma Jarman yea, it reminded me of another ending for an anime, I'm not going to say what anime because of spoilers but ill tell you if you want to know
Yeah, I'm more inclined to believe it's just normal human nature. We see something meant to make us cry from visuals to the sounds, of course we're going to cry. :/
Almost Antique I'm with you, a few movies got me to tear up but not fully cry. I feel like this guy saying those who can't be hypnotized are weak minded is supposed to be a shock and awe moment. In reality it's the opposite, stronger minded people should be able to move past the illusion, this is complete crap
I could not open my eyes to save my Life and as far I am concerned my Mind is impenetrable. This Man just gave us knowledge as to how the Mind works. Imagination and Pretending allows the Mind to in a way double down on the faculty of power. This was incredibly helpful to experience. Conscious Action and Subconscious Imagination override the first initiative of action. When he said "imagine your eyes shut, locked shut and then try to open them while Imagining then being shut I quickly knew that the Mind is a parliament of Minds. This seriously is extraordinary.
When you cry at a movie it's not entirely because you are 'hypnotised' by the Hollywood dream-factory, you are also reminded of similar events and emotions you experienced in real life.
I see several comments to the effect that if it did not work, he is calling you stupid. For the record, that is false logic. He says that intelligence is a NECESSARY condition for being hypnotized, but he never implied that it was a SUFFICIENT condition. In other words, he left the possibility open that you have to be intelligent and... whatever... such as willing to be hypnotized, relaxed, not distracted and so on.
not sure what to say here. I was thinking i wanted to open my eyes and had a small argument with myself about opening them. The skeptic in my was saying open your damn eyes, you don't believe in any of this crap. I'm a little curious now. is it more or less effective round 2? replayed the video and it worked same way.....now i'm curious.
I know many will not believe it but I really cudn't open my eyes until nd unless he snapped his fingers........... Believe me I was prepared to prove him wrong from the beginning... even when in the mid he told to open the eyes slowly, I tried my best to open but cudn't and as soon as I heard his finger's snap I opened my eyes without any effort..... Amazing....
It worked for me too. Freaky, like you I was like "whatever", but I could not open my eyes until he snapped his fingers and I tried the whole time he asked us to try to open them. Smart or not smart, doesn't really matters, what does matter is maybe there is help out there for me to loss weight and keep it off. I have never thought of myself as a smart person, I was average in school. No straight A student for sure. When I opened my eyes I felt good. Not scared like I thought I would be. I am a control freak my family and friends tell me that all the time, so for me to be able to be hypnotized didn't bother me as I thought it would, so if you were not able to be hypnotized wait a few weeks and try it again, maybe you have a lot going on and you could not soak in what was going on when he talked to you and if that still doesn't work for you well it's just how GOD made you and it is no big deal. Everyone is smart in some form or another, and don't let anyone tell you different. I've been know to be a smartass meaning of times and I m proud of it. LOL JK
Count yourself as lucky. My mind was so busy and I started to laugh aloud and I totally missed hearing the sound of his fingers snapping. I had to work harder to finally open my eyes as he had commanded. I was waiting for the finger snap...and missed it!
You're lucky, heh... I sensed some resistance while trying to open my eyes, but that was because I was trying to open them and keep them closed at the same time.
I find it so hard to be hypnotised as there's always something that's uncomfortable being asked of me. For example in this video he says "close your eyes, now close them a little tighter" and I'm sorry but squeezing my eyelids shut harder then usual for over a minute is like holding my breath. There's no way I can focus on anything he says when I'm in such a state of discomfort. Same with meditation videos when they ask you to "breathe through your stomach" the fuck? My lungs are in my chest, the thought of air entering my abdomen makes me so uncomfortable.
Chris breathing through your stomach is normal in a state of rest. Breathing through your chest happens when the body is stressed out. There is no air entering your belly, it’s just your lungs pushing your organs down a little because your breathe. Closing your eyes tighter is just done to show that when you focus on closing the eyes while trying to open them, you focus more on closing them so you don’t actually open them.
I so badly want to be hypnotized. But a one on one not by watching videos. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love every video. I'm what you would call addicted to hypnosis videos. I just want a one on one experience. By the way I love the videos you provided on your website. Thank you.
I guess i am to, though my mind just completly went ''hes a bluff, everything he says is a bluff'' when he kept repeating himself and kept going all like ''those people are smart!'' ''if you dont do what i want you to you are dumb!'' ''I can help you loose weight'' ''we are the best in america'' He just sounded like a commercial to me, so i did everything half way, thinking it was all bullshit
The best way to think about hypnosis (In my opinion) is to think of it like the placebo effect, you're given a pill that you're told can aid your cold or something similar, and so you take the pill believing that it works, when really it does nothing, so you end up convincing yourself that it's working and you actually start feeling better even though the pill did nothing, this is because you convinced yourself that it does. It sort of the works the same way with hypnosis, you can only be hypnotized if you want to be hypnotized, by convincing yourself that your eyes are locked shut, you will find difficulty in opening your eyes. But while in a mindset that it wont work, the hypnosis will have no effect on you. This man isn't telling you that you're stupid because you're not being hypnotized, it's just a fact that intelligent people find it easier to be hypnotized, not because they're weak minded but because they're more open minded, this means that they're more open to new ideas or suggestions, the suggestion being that you cannot open your eyes.
I’ve missed my turn, but was driving a road I’d never driven before, and didn’t know where the turn was. “Where the Red Fern Grows,” brought me to the brink of tears, but didn’t put me over the edge. I’ve avoided “Old Yeller” because I don’t like being brought to tears by movies, unless they are tears of mirth. The first time I watched Cool Runnings I laughed so hard I cried.
I've got PTSD . I also have tried mdma. DMT, amphetamine, weed and it's the only thing that helped was amphetamine. That's because the drugs Im on from the doctor flatten my mood. I'm on Aripripizole, Venlavaxine, Zopiclone, and Pregablin. I'm flat constantly so tried alternatives. I found DMT was exactly the same as a psychotic breakdown. I went to realms etc. I go there when I don't take my tablets. Mdma was quite good. I felt really happy and at ease. but found my body vibrated like horribly down my spine. The sensation wasn't nice . I then tried amphetamine as I read that Adderal was used to help antention deficits. That's something that happened with PTSD. I don't drink I have amphetamine once or twice a month just to feel alive. With PTSD it's like as it progresses and you read things on it. Your open to the power of suggestion. I have PTSD and with it comes psychosis, bi polar, a bit of scitzophrenia and definitely the power of suggestion. Its a huge problem when a lot of the videos are negative. I end up having it all be the end of the day lol. The thing I felt works for me is meditation... To find a relaxing point not take my medication. And basically breakdown in a nice place in space. That's where I go these days. All I can say is I'm open minded and will try anything once. DMT made me very hyper vigilant and sketchy in its after effects. I heard things bigtime. And it's exactly the same after a breakdown. . everything becomes louder. The other things that helps me is the sun. I have to have lots of light in my head. I sun haze . I got to another place in my mind. It's like beautiful . I'm quite used to.ptsd its become my friend. I've accepted it and it works that way for me...I wouldn't want not to have it basically .. Life throws blows at humans. and with the world situation I'd imagine half of us are traumatised from the media etc. I'd like to take the reason for the trauma away. As it's hard to believe such evil people exist. So I do my own hypnosis. It stops aggitaion. Sometimes I feel I was hypnosised a bit by the mental health. As he told me to look at him and asked if the TV wS speaking to me. I said no. Once again the power of suggestion. I got home and it was say things lol. I'm a positive person and if I can help anyone to come to terms with PTSD I'd help the anyone. I think the was PTSD is shown on some of these videos actually frightens some to death . The best things to help anyone with PTSD.is hope . That's all just hope that theyll get back together and be so called normal again.abd their basically isn't any. All there is is talk no action. I decided to open myself to everything that could help me. and basically I found the best of the best is light. Loads of light .. it reaches the soul and connects the head and heart like a normal person should feel . Once this connection is made your soul can recover. I mean light as every form of light. The mind's eye loves light . It loves the sun. Is bounces around lol. Even lighting in the home if you look at it for a while. It's like it holds magic. I've had PTSD for 15 years. And the best natural one is light. . Also there's light in darkness. You cannot wake up a soul based on darkness and fear. Only on.light and good music.;)
Ok, my mind was blown. I could NOT open my eyes. When he snapped they popped open and I yelled, "holy crap". I also love this man's voice and attitude, totally checking the website out
This WORKS!!!!!! I’m still 5 mins later sitting in awe. I WAS hypnotized. It was as if my brain simply didn’t know how to open my eyes anymore. Unbelievable!!!!
I was shocked when I couldn't open my eyes. I panicked at first, then started giggling. I couldn't get them to open. I was so astonished that I tried it again. Of course the second time around it wasn't as effective. But was a great experience
I was afraid to even close my eyes and had to start the video over 4 times and when I did it worked. I was a little scared about how not opening my eyes made me feel but after it was over I felt a little "lighter" in a sense. I honestly didn't think i was intelligent, just made my day!!
The resistance your eyelids feel is not due to hypnotic suggestions but a physiological effect. He tells you to close your eyes. Then, more importantly, he tells you to close them even tighter. He then talks for a while, your eyelids still all tensed up. This an amount of tension your eyelids do not experience often. Then, he tells you to open your eyes. Most likely, you will use the normal amount of force to try and open your eyes, but that is not enough to offset the tension of your eyelids at that state. So they don't open. Or maybe they just hesitate. It does depend on how tight your eyes were closed. Try doing the eye exercise without the video. Even knowing it takes more force to open your eyes while tightly closed, your eyelids will still hesitate when you open them. It's the same as scrunching a toe tightly for a while and then trying to move it back quickly.
That was insane omg!!! I just couldn’t open my eyes no matter what, and this comes from a person who struggles to keep his eyes closed when he’s falling asleep!
Did you never had like you are in school the teacher is talking but your just totally thinking in another world and you dont understand any of his words but you did hear them, than that is about the same as the car :)
Daniel Williams I'm ADHD, too. I think that my mind is too busy working on things related to hypnotism to really focus on actually being hypnotized. I think that I could probably be hypnotized on my medication because sometimes things like driving will hypnotize me then, but not otherwise.
You're the only who has ever hypnotized me. I used your free weight-loss tape 2 times..as I suffer with sugar cravings. It really worked!!! I am really interested in past life regression, but sadly you do not offer this kind of recording. I would pay for it if you choose to do so. Please consider it. Thank you for your time and your Web page, you changed my life. God bless.
Janaya great to hear :) I was so courious about this topic and did quite some research. But this was the first time I actually wanted to get hypnotised. It felt great o7
Maybe I am imagining this too...but I actually somehow feel better now that I did this. I feel like I have a different, more positive, frame of mind....and all I did was follow the directions to close my eyes in this "test".
I tried it twice, the first time it didn't work, but the second time I couldn't open my eyes until he snapped his fingers. I really tried. Felt like they were glued shut! What the hell
I got suprised at first because I couldnt open my eyes,and for the second time it was hard to open but i could open and third time tried it without his voice.....still worked....
I had to go back and listen to this again, he said not to try and open your eyes until he snapped his fingers. He only said to pretend to try and open your eyes, not actually try to open them, and only snapped his fingers at the end when he said to genuinely open your eyes. I met both of his criteria for being easily hypnotized and this failed for me. I could open my eyes at any time I wanted to. How is this a legit hypnosis test?
Your critical thinking sucks because being able to be hypnotized (missing a turn or crying) never meant you could be hypnotized here with very little effort.
Hypnosis doesn't mean that you have to be awakened by someone - a lot of people fail to realise this for some reason. Hypnosis is simply a state with lower brain activity and where you can be in deeper thought than normal, and this brain activity has actually been recorded with real equipment in one of the MythBusters episodes - you could literally see the subject's brain activity sink to an usually low level.
Davey Evans well part of the reason you can't be hypnotised is because you don't want to be. No matter how much you say you want to, here you are being a jerk and leaving this comment. This worked for me, truly, because I wanted it to happen (mainly just to prove you wrong)
This is amazing, when he snapped his finger, I tried to open my eyes but I can't, for about 3 secs, seems like there're two mind doing two jobs at the same time, one mind was tring to open my eyes, another was trying to close them, I've never experienced this before, like my mind is devided. I think the key is that he used two ways to suggest, his language was repeating one command, close your eyes, and his finger snapping was a signal to tell you to open your eyes. He told you to close your eyes once and once again, and he told you to shut them tighter and tighter, so this command goes deeper into your mind and your muscle, and you're keeping pushing your eyelids. Then he snapped finger, that signal is only a sound, sound is not contradictory to language, even it may stands for an opposite meaning. Your brain's reflection to that sound is to open your eyes, but he didn't told you to stop the first command, right? That previous "close" command was still in your head, you're quite busy pushing your eyelids, you were very concentrating, and now comes a new command "open", these two commands are contradictory in physics, but not in your head, which they should be if your not so busy closing your eyes or the command is clearer rather then a finger snap. All these above bring you to the consequence: you're trying to open your eyes while you're closing them. If the second command was delivered to you by language like"now relax your eyes, take a deep breath, now open your eyes slowly", then everything would be normal. The whole thing is more like a mind trick, he knows how your brain works and how to use that.
First time I couldn't open my eyes. So I tried it again but skipped right to the instructions and I was able to open my eyes. The beginning is preping you
as he snapped, my eyes shot open, then i heard him say "slowly open you eyes" and i was like o.o
I know right bro
Same
Did the same
yep same here.
Saaaame
Today I found out I'm mentally challenged. Lol
Me too
+Lag Spike Yep. I'm mentally challenged, too. I need to unlearn concepts like confirmation bias and self-fulfilling prophecy before I can be subject to hypnosis. ;)

He says its easy to hypnotize smart people to make everyone want to be hypnotized.
Trust me it works without this. Actually it’s for the “icantbehypnotizedbecauseiamtoosmart”-faction
Hahahaha! He try to be ironic.
So he hypnotized us so that we could be hypnotized. Mind blowing
"Its hard to win a argument with a smart person, its impossible to win an argument with a stupid person. " Interesting to entertain that observation against being hypnotizable or not. The quote is from Bill Murray. Smarter people might not be so knee jerk paranoid and defensive as that can be thought of as on a sliding scale and not binary.

While it may be a slight stretch to say “smart people are more easily hypnotised”, it’s scientifically proven via MRI, case studies, and the definition of hypnosis that people who can focus better, i.e. better connection between the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, are more easily hypnotised.
Besides focus, visual thinking skills, empathy, and imagination also helps the process of being hypnotised. All are often correlated with intelligence.

It is actually quite a clever little trick.
That's actually wrong, magicians have been known to use tricks like this that involve muscles in your body. What you're doing is once you close your eyes tighter and relax your eye muscles they want to stay relaxed and when he snaps his fingers you use more of your muscles. Same as if you stand in a door way with your hands to your side and raise them until your hands hit the door frame hold it for 20 to 30 seconds and then move from the door frame, WOW your hands magic float up. It's use many ways on parts of your body. Another one is if you ask someone to lift a glass of water, they do it then set it down. Then you place your hand over theirs and ask them to raise their hand while you keep it in place. Now while doing this you talk to them, say some bs w.e you want then you ask them to pick the glass back up and that it will be heavier and it will be. Because your arm is tired. Makes it very easy if arm is extended.
Channing he's not wrong
I'm sorry, but he is.
Thanks captain obvious.
I wanna tell that he is not tricking u by telling u can be hypnotised if u r smart .........
it's just that smart people understand and can imagine the scenario very perfectly compared to dumb people .........
it's like showing a sad movie to a mentally handicap person ....he can't understand what's going on becoz he is dumb
and if u show the same movie to the person who is mentally healthy he feels it ,he understands it ......
thus , like this the old man in the video says it's easy to hypnotise a smart person ......
He hypnotized me into visiting his website.
lol
lol
LMAO
😂😂
That was the whole point of this video.
I fear I might be mentally challenged...
You don't need to fear that. You can get government assistance.
don't listen to what every body have to say lol
It didnt work
I'm with ya lol
I'm stupid! 😩
What if I closed my eyes then my phone ran out of battery
Rip then
Lol then hahaha
You would have to break free of the hypnosis i did i was having a spazam in my body and i had to break the hypnosis
lmaoo hhaahahaha. then your fucked my friend. your fucked
haha
It's more about 'willingness' to be hypnotized than intelligence. Not all smart people are willing to be hypnotized, depending on how they perceive being hypnotized. That being said you do require a minimum intelligence to understand what is being said. Maybe 'really' smart people are willing to be hypnotized. They don't equate that to being gullible .
Merman Atlantis well said. If you can utilize this method to quit smoking or lose weight which a lot of intelligent people struggle to do all of their lives, that's better than if you can't. The inability to utilize a particular tool is not proof of intelligence.
I could or could not be hypnotised I have very good control on my unconscious mind even I could create dreams and change them even when I close my eyes I can create images while awake and I am a artist some times I dream of a picture then when I wake up I draw it
Im not intelligent and I have crazy adhd. At least I don't have any of the issues he says hypnosis helps.
Yeah, whole grades get hypnotized professionally to believe in god, my atheist friend was willing and he got hypnotized to be asleep while the believers cried and i just trying not to die out of laughter

I literally thought this exact sentence you said
My internet cut out and took forever to get my eyes open
Andrew Anderson Lol
Ha
Andrew Anderson just stop pretending your eyes are closed.
OH MY GODS that was the weirdest experience I think I've ever had. I was almost verging on panic because I knew I COULD open my eyes if I wanted to, but something was keeping me from doing so, and I felt like I was trying so hard to open them, and they truly felt like they were stuck. Then he snapped, and BAM I flash them open. It did not feel like a complete conscious effort. I think I am going to do that again.
Same frigin weird but cool
It was weird but it worked on me too, i was laughing out loud like a fool too
same thing but i was not freaking out. I did have a Professor that hypnotized me once and it was the best feeling ever.
I doubt it will work the second time tho. Im definitely looking further into hypnosis after this experience!!
crazy right?
Huh. It didn't work for me...
GuEsS iM mEnTaLlY cHaLlEnGeD!
lol didnt actually do it or maybe it doesn’t work from you device
Someone hypnotize you into thinking you can hypnotize us all within 2 seconds I got it!
I answered his yes to the initial questions but the hypnosis didn’t work so Rip.
Lol but all he said was that mentally challenged people can’t be hypnotized
"The more intelligent the person the more they are susceptible to hypnotism." Evidence please. I am not aware of any peer reviewed scientific study that would support this. But it is convenient to say that in a video where you would like people to be susceptible to hypnotism. Not without irony, that is what we call "leading the subject."
Did you even watch the beginning? It makes logical sense. Deep in thought = state of trance = hypnosis. Those who don't think deeply or daydream, probably wont be hypnotized in general. Therefore, in general deep thinking people are easier to hypnotize.
Crying at movies is called immersion, not that it would matter what it's called. I have some severe issues with that video due to what I feel are inconsistency and handwaving. At the same time, I don't really see what use they get from convincing anyone. So, why do you care?
well brainwashing is hypnosis xD
You have to let yourself go tbh honest...I'm actually very intelligent. Intelligent enough to know how to clear my mind of all thoughts and subject to hypnotism for instance...sure I have doubts....but I wash those doubts away before a hypnosis session.
They all say that...it's the most common entry of any "Hypnotist". Think of it this way, we all want to believe we are smart. So when it comes to opening our eyes we just don't do it, but if someone pinched you while your eyes were shut, they would open.
I did it and I get how it works. When he was saying to try and open my eyes I couldn’t because my mind kept going back to that image of myself having my eyes closed. I was basically imagining what that feeling of having my eyes closed would look like if I saw myself. So it goes back to the fact that ur mind can’t process two things at once. So when he was saying try and open ur eyes I heard him but I kept imagining my eyes were shut so I couldn’t open em. And we all know if u feel something or do something it’s very easy to imagine urself doing it. Very interesting.
Wow awesome your explanation was like saying ‘yeah so the train moves because it started to move because it had to move so now it moves’
I did the same thing. I was imaging seeing my eyes closed...as if in a dream, where I can see myself and my actions. So, all I could see where my tightly closed eyes as I followed his commands.
Hahaha love it! @khadijah Said
@@StarfireReborn Yeah I did not realize people could not process more than 1 thing at a time.
emi buliga oh wow congratulations you’re officially a dumbass!
When I cry or sympathize with something that means I'm empathic doesn't mean I'm hypnotized
Yes, you feel it because you are empathic. But the fact that you're feeling it for an event that is not real and you know it's not real, THAT is a result of the hypnosis.
It's a similar thing, hypnosis is a fancy word for playing pretend in your mind.
totally agree. when he said that mentally challenged people can't be hypnotized and that crying at movies means i'm hypnotized, i was confused because i have autism (which i was told is a mental disability) and i cry at movies. idk maybe i was misdiagnosed my whole life.
It's also hypnosis. Careful about falling into the either-or trap of a false dichotomy.
@@andyj10101 I think mentally challenged was being used specifically though its a broad term. If you know what I mean.
I could not open my eyes and I smiled even before he said I would smile, I think you just got to believe you can be hypnotized and you will.
omg i legit could not open my eyes. Okay now hypnotize me to loose weight
Clara Bane HAHAHAHAH

Solid dick joke.
I love this. Every once in a while I come back to this and pretend my eyes are locked shut and pretend I can't open them. It's fun
Hypnotism is all about opening yourself up to suggestion, if you go into it with a negative attitude of course it's not going to work. it requires a lot of focus. just because it didnt work for you doesnt mean that it isnt a real thing. stop being immature and blurting out curse words because you have no focus or imagination
+Thomas Edmonds that's also a good point, thank you for writting that.
i thought the same.
well, i am really unsure about that, what i should be believe, i am a open minded guy but i am really unsure and so i think it will never happen if i don't think, yes, it will works :)
just try hard is not enough, if deep inside of the brain is a clear statement of, no, that "we" will not happen :)
hm, i don't anyone have to fix that, that is a human right, to have an opinion or just not stick to one side .
maybe that needs a lot of practise but who doesn't need it, will not take that time i guess.
+Thomas Edmonds it worked perfectly for me.
+bhed12 me to
I completely agree with what you just said!!
Wiccan Spectre I’m an extremely open person and willing to try anything up to suggestion that’s one of the reasons I clicked this vid but personally it didn’t do a thing for me and yes I was and still am that hypnosis doesn’t exist because it’s never worked from experience.
for those of you that couldn't be hypnotized: the test didn't work on you. They call it divergent.
Well ,technically , people are hypnotized because they WANT to be , and that is why it works . Its a bit different then those who arent easily controlled by media ,politics and adverting . I found that being subseptable to hypnosis has mostly to do with getting in touch with your subconcious and someone trying to guide you willingly towards positive thinking patterns . Its just convincing yourself to look past your concious thought . Some people dont think it works on them because they just felt too stressed out or hyper that day . Its really just someone helping you find your center and helping you realize your true will .
I see what you did there.

I felt myself being hypnotized because I wanted to be. In my mind, I think it would have been pretty easy not to become hypnotized, because all I would have had to do is some "self talk" to ignore his commands and not follow him down the proverbial rabbit hole that he was suggesting.
Didn't know George Carlin could do hypnosis.
Bfore100 lol
Bfore100 thats so funny, I was thinking the same thing lmao
My thoughts exactly
I actually felt resistance trying to open my eyes
Peanut Guy same
I believe he is only "Suggesting" that SMART people my be hypnotized, only to make you WANT to be hypnotized. Since no one wants to be considered an idiot, the suggestion he makes, makes you want to play along. You cannot be hypnotized unless you sincerely want to be. He is using this suggestion, so that your conscious mind, drops it's ego and guard, therefore rendering you more susceptible to the hypnosis. Someone who is paranoid and skeptical, will not be so easily fooled. So relax people, if this did not work on you it does not mean you are stupid. You are simply skeptical and guarded.
No shit Sherlock ;)
But you just ruined his attempt by pointing out the placebo
Today i was hypnotised into believing something was free
😜😜😜
Me too... ends up it's actually $5!!
He does more harm than not by that intelligence BS. I'm especially on guard against people pandering to my ego. So going on and on about smart people made me think he's up to something and I was right. Five bucks after saying it's free. But at his site, he calls it a $5 donation. Now I'm even MORE on guard. What a fucker.
I did exactly what he said in the video and I swear I couldn't open my eyes until he snapped his fingers. I'm really creeped out right now. I felt like I my eyes were glued shut. :S
me too, amazing
I.. Dont know what he mean with "imagne your eyes closed" Well.. I dont know how to see my own eyes in my mind.. I.. Just hate myself im so dumb..
Well I was able to open my eyes before he snap his finger but not right away, I was forcing myself to open it and I did it
lucky pig xD
YoureHot On the part "imagne your eyes closed" I was imaging myself sitting on a chair with my eyes closed.
That is funny because I was not sitting wile watching this video, I was in my bed
it's a big lie saying smart people are easily hypnotised.
absolutely. Feelings and desires over logic and reason are not intelligence
I believe what he meant was that smart people can easily control their subconsience, and therefore start responding to hypnosis...
That means that they would more easily deny it, as they use it more to benefit themselves
I am gifted with intelligence, and here's my experience with hypnosis so far:
(keep in mind that I have not watched this video yet.)
When I want to, I can get hypnotized with little to no effort at all. I know the benefits it can give.
When I want to resist, I can. I can easily resist hypnosis if I want to. But most of the time, I conciously choose not to, since, when you listen to a hypnotist, most of the time your goal is to get in a trance.
Some people tell you that you won't remember a thing right before they wake you up. However, this trick has never worked on me and I always remember who I am, what I was doing, and so on.
In some cases, they tell you the exact opposite: that you will remember every last bit of it. Strangely enough this trick does work.
Most of the times, when hypnotized, I will instinctively follow commands when told to. However, say, if I need to stay quiet, and I get commanded to say something out loud, I will wisper. This still happens on instinct...
+optimistically Sara I think that's the perfect explanation. When you're more intelligent, you hold better control over your brain. So if you choose to let the trance happen... Your brain will follow your command.

Holy crap i was just hipnotized by an old man on the internet XD
Clever, by saying only smart people can be hypnotized the majority of viewers are going to keep their eyes closed, if they really wanted to they could open their eyes but subliminally they don't want to think they are dumb. that is how hypnosis works, you have to want to be hypnotized.
I love how when he flipped the "intelligence" bird everyone just got offended hardcore. lmao
Facts that's what I'm seeing in most of the comments, and the complaining is annoying.
tried it second time......look like I am mentally challenged this time :p :p
There are several factors in the subject. One plan I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Hyper Hypno Blueprint (check it out on google) it's the most useful plan i've seen. Check out the unbelievable info .

I did feel my eyes having a hard time opening. I still was able to open them though without the snap.
I must be mentally challenged cause I couldn't get hypnotised although I tried seriously

Crying during a movie actually has nothing to do with hypnosis.
Yeah, I'm more inclined to believe it's just normal human nature. We see something meant to make us cry from visuals to the sounds, of course we're going to cry. :/
Almost Antique I'm with you, a few movies got me to tear up but not fully cry. I feel like this guy saying those who can't be hypnotized are weak minded is supposed to be a shock and awe moment. In reality it's the opposite, stronger minded people should be able to move past the illusion, this is complete crap
djmx youre rong..which shows me that you got no clue about this kind of science...
Yup, it's mirror neurons (which empathy and motor-learning are based on).
I could not open my eyes to save my Life and as far I am concerned my Mind is impenetrable. This Man just gave us knowledge as to how the Mind works. Imagination and Pretending allows the Mind to in a way double down on the faculty of power. This was incredibly helpful to experience. Conscious Action and Subconscious Imagination override the first initiative of action. When he said "imagine your eyes shut, locked shut and then try to open them while Imagining then being shut I quickly knew that the Mind is a parliament of Minds. This seriously is extraordinary.
i was hypnotized by clicking on this video xD
Um no thanks I won’t get hypnotised by someone who cries during commercials
zeitgeist damn😂
lmao.
HAHAHHA
Lol
LMFAOOO
When you cry at a movie it's not entirely because you are 'hypnotised' by the Hollywood dream-factory, you are also reminded of similar events and emotions you experienced in real life.
your explanation just proved his point
That's hypnosis.
lol You completely missed the abstraction correlation.
This is the first hypnosis session that actually worked for me, and I loved it. Thanks for the video!
Holy crap, I couldn't open my eyes and I started laughing xD Thank you :D
Ne too
***** worked for me but not all the way only one eye couldnt be opened
***** same - what the hell! didnt think it was possible to be hypnotised but this actually got me
***** but i like the video. really a good test hypnosiss..
***** me too
I see several comments to the effect that if it did not work, he is calling you stupid. For the record, that is false logic. He says that intelligence is a NECESSARY condition for being hypnotized, but he never implied that it was a SUFFICIENT condition.
In other words, he left the possibility open that you have to be intelligent and... whatever... such as willing to be hypnotized, relaxed, not distracted and so on.
Allen Howard LSAT logic be like:
that was creepy i literally had so much trouble opening my eyes
Aloneunderthestars 。 honestly, same here! It was so strange. I wonder if we would have the same results if we watched this video again
not sure what to say here. I was thinking i wanted to open my eyes and had a small argument with myself about opening them. The skeptic in my was saying open your damn eyes, you don't believe in any of this crap. I'm a little curious now. is it more or less effective round 2? replayed the video and it worked same way.....now i'm curious.
Same I wanted to open my eyes but I just couldn't
Same I was trying so hard, I eventually said this is too much an threw my phone down to open my eyes 😂
Aloneunderthestars 。 you must be smart
I know many will not believe it but I really cudn't open my eyes until nd unless he snapped his fingers........... Believe me I was prepared to prove him wrong from the beginning... even when in the mid he told to open the eyes slowly, I tried my best to open but cudn't and as soon as I heard his finger's snap I opened my eyes without any effort..... Amazing....
It worked for me too. Freaky, like you I was like "whatever", but I could not open my eyes until he snapped his fingers and I tried the whole time he asked us to try to open them. Smart or not smart, doesn't really matters, what does matter is maybe there is help out there for me to loss weight and keep it off. I have never thought of myself as a smart person, I was average in school. No straight A student for sure. When I opened my eyes I felt good. Not scared like I thought I would be. I am a control freak my family and friends tell me that all the time, so for me to be able to be hypnotized didn't bother me as I thought it would, so if you were not able to be hypnotized wait a few weeks and try it again, maybe you have a lot going on and you could not soak in what was going on when he talked to you and if that still doesn't work for you well it's just how GOD made you and it is no big deal. Everyone is smart in some form or another, and don't let anyone tell you different. I've been know to be a smartass meaning of times and I m proud of it. LOL JK
Count yourself as lucky. My mind was so busy and I started to laugh aloud and I totally missed hearing the sound of his fingers snapping. I had to work harder to finally open my eyes as he had commanded. I was waiting for the finger snap...and missed it!
congratulations, you just shove your skepticism aside and had been open-minded to the idea and that is all it takes.
I couldn't open my eyes.
But I could have opened them if I wanted to, I swear...
same! i dont know if it worked or if it didnt
I started on educational animal videos, and I ended up here
Makeup videos and I ended up here?
Ah well, I already guessed I couldn't be hypnotized. Also found out Im mentally challenged. 😁
Holy fuck that was scary, I got a panic attack when I could not open them
OMG my eyes stayed shut, I couldn't help but laugh.
This is the first time a hypnosis has worked on me :) Cool!
You're lucky, heh... I sensed some resistance while trying to open my eyes, but that was because I was trying to open them and keep them closed at the same time.

The website makes you pay $20 to get sent a dvd. It is not free at all and this video is just an ad.
I find it so hard to be hypnotised as there's always something that's uncomfortable being asked of me.
For example in this video he says "close your eyes, now close them a little tighter" and I'm sorry but squeezing my eyelids shut harder then usual for over a minute is like holding my breath.
There's no way I can focus on anything he says when I'm in such a state of discomfort.
Same with meditation videos when they ask you to "breathe through your stomach" the fuck? My lungs are in my chest, the thought of air entering my abdomen makes me so uncomfortable.
Chris breathing through your stomach is normal in a state of rest. Breathing through your chest happens when the body is stressed out. There is no air entering your belly, it’s just your lungs pushing your organs down a little because your breathe. Closing your eyes tighter is just done to show that when you focus on closing the eyes while trying to open them, you focus more on closing them so you don’t actually open them.
Breathing through your stomach is another way to say breathing with your diaphragm
I've never closed my eyes during this test, haha fooled you again! 😂
Rot ten me too
Why did you fool him? Didn't you actually fool yourself then?
I so badly want to be hypnotized. But a one on one not by watching videos. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love every video. I'm what you would call addicted to hypnosis videos. I just want a one on one experience. By the way I love the videos you provided on your website. Thank you.
Im mentally challenged in a way...but I cry sometimes in front of the tv
Yeah, but he meant with the TV on...
I guess I'm mentally challenged...lol
Lol. Me too.
I guess i am to, though my mind just completly went ''hes a bluff, everything he says is a bluff'' when he kept repeating himself and kept going all like ''those people are smart!'' ''if you dont do what i want you to you are dumb!'' ''I can help you loose weight'' ''we are the best in america'' He just sounded like a commercial to me, so i did everything half way, thinking it was all bullshit
Steven Harrison it only works if you believe it will
The best way to think about hypnosis (In my opinion) is to think of it like the placebo effect, you're given a pill that you're told can aid your cold or something similar, and so you take the pill believing that it works, when really it does nothing, so you end up convincing yourself that it's working and you actually start feeling better even though the pill did nothing, this is because you convinced yourself that it does.
It sort of the works the same way with hypnosis, you can only be hypnotized if you want to be hypnotized, by convincing yourself that your eyes are locked shut, you will find difficulty in opening your eyes. But while in a mindset that it wont work, the hypnosis will have no effect on you.
This man isn't telling you that you're stupid because you're not being hypnotized, it's just a fact that intelligent people find it easier to be hypnotized, not because they're weak minded but because they're more open minded, this means that they're more open to new ideas or suggestions, the suggestion being that you cannot open your eyes.
I’ve missed my turn, but was driving a road I’d never driven before, and didn’t know where the turn was. “Where the Red Fern Grows,” brought me to the brink of tears, but didn’t put me over the edge. I’ve avoided “Old Yeller” because I don’t like being brought to tears by movies, unless they are tears of mirth. The first time I watched Cool Runnings I laughed so hard I cried.
Holy shit. I started smiling and laughing before he said I was doing it. Then it just made me laugh even more.
I've got PTSD . I also have tried mdma. DMT, amphetamine, weed and it's the only thing that helped was amphetamine. That's because the drugs Im on from the doctor flatten my mood. I'm on Aripripizole, Venlavaxine, Zopiclone, and Pregablin. I'm flat constantly so tried alternatives. I found DMT was exactly the same as a psychotic breakdown. I went to realms etc. I go there when I don't take my tablets. Mdma was quite good. I felt really happy and at ease. but found my body vibrated like horribly down my spine. The sensation wasn't nice . I then tried amphetamine as I read that Adderal was used to help antention deficits. That's something that happened with PTSD.
I don't drink I have amphetamine once or twice a month just to feel alive. With PTSD it's like as it progresses and you read things on it. Your open to the power of suggestion. I have PTSD and with it comes psychosis, bi polar, a bit of scitzophrenia and definitely the power of suggestion. Its a huge problem when a lot of the videos are negative. I end up having it all be the end of the day lol.
The thing I felt works for me is meditation... To find a relaxing point not take my medication. And basically breakdown in a nice place in space. That's where I go these days.
All I can say is I'm open minded and will try anything once. DMT made me very hyper vigilant and sketchy in its after effects. I heard things bigtime. And it's exactly the same after a breakdown. . everything becomes louder.
The other things that helps me is the sun. I have to have lots of light in my head. I sun haze . I got to another place in my mind. It's like beautiful .
I'm quite used to.ptsd its become my friend. I've accepted it and it works that way for me...I wouldn't want not to have it basically ..
Life throws blows at humans. and with the world situation I'd imagine half of us are traumatised from the media etc. I'd like to take the reason for the trauma away. As it's hard to believe such evil people exist. So I do my own hypnosis. It stops aggitaion. Sometimes I feel I was hypnosised a bit by the mental health. As he told me to look at him and asked if the TV wS speaking to me. I said no. Once again the power of suggestion. I got home and it was say things lol.
I'm a positive person and if I can help anyone to come to terms with PTSD I'd help the anyone. I think the was PTSD is shown on some of these videos actually frightens some to death .
The best things to help anyone with PTSD.is hope . That's all just hope that theyll get back together and be so called normal again.abd their basically isn't any. All there is is talk no action.
I decided to open myself to everything that could help me. and basically I found the best of the best is light. Loads of light .. it reaches the soul and connects the head and heart like a normal person should feel . Once this connection is made your soul can recover. I mean light as every form of light. The mind's eye loves light . It loves the sun. Is bounces around lol. Even lighting in the home if you look at it for a while. It's like it holds magic. I've had PTSD for 15 years. And the best natural one is light. . Also there's light in darkness. You cannot wake up a soul based on darkness and fear. Only on.light and good music.;)
Ok, my mind was blown. I could NOT open my eyes. When he snapped they popped open and I yelled, "holy crap". I also love this man's voice and attitude, totally checking the website out

First question...
Me: I dont really have a car.
I was shocked when I couldn't open my eyes. I panicked at first, then started giggling. I couldn't get them to open. I was so astonished that I tried it again. Of course the second time around it wasn't as effective. But was a great experience
I get lost while driving all the time...I must be a Genius!
the amount of times this man said “honestly” or “sincerely”
I was afraid to even close my eyes and had to start the video over 4 times and when I did it worked. I was a little scared about how not opening my eyes made me feel but after it was over I felt a little "lighter" in a sense. I honestly didn't think i was intelligent, just made my day!!
The resistance your eyelids feel is not due to hypnotic suggestions but a physiological effect. He tells you to close your eyes. Then, more importantly, he tells you to close them even tighter. He then talks for a while, your eyelids still all tensed up. This an amount of tension your eyelids do not experience often. Then, he tells you to open your eyes. Most likely, you will use the normal amount of force to try and open your eyes, but that is not enough to offset the tension of your eyelids at that state. So they don't open. Or maybe they just hesitate. It does depend on how tight your eyes were closed. Try doing the eye exercise without the video. Even knowing it takes more force to open your eyes while tightly closed, your eyelids will still hesitate when you open them. It's the same as scrunching a toe tightly for a while and then trying to move it back quickly.

I am really interested in past life regression, but sadly you do not offer this kind of recording. I would pay for it if you choose to do so. Please consider it. Thank you for your time and your Web page, you changed my life. God bless.
Janaya great to hear :)
I was so courious about this topic and did quite some research. But this was the first time I actually wanted to get hypnotised. It felt great o7
Yes get past life regression
I'm pretty sure if you tried looking at past lives with hypnosis you'd just end up planting false memories into yourself.
Maybe I am imagining this too...but I actually somehow feel better now that I did this. I feel like I have a different, more positive, frame of mind....and all I did was follow the directions to close my eyes in this "test".
I tried it twice, the first time it didn't work, but the second time I couldn't open my eyes until he snapped his fingers. I really tried. Felt like they were glued shut!
What the hell
I got suprised at first because I couldnt open my eyes,and for the second time it was hard to open but i could open
and third time tried it without his voice.....still worked....
SAME HERE!
Congratulations you did the first step in self hypnosis
Mine were locked for like a second but then just opened and now I feel high..
I had to go back and listen to this again, he said not to try and open your eyes until he snapped his fingers. He only said to pretend to try and open your eyes, not actually try to open them, and only snapped his fingers at the end when he said to genuinely open your eyes. I met both of his criteria for being easily hypnotized and this failed for me. I could open my eyes at any time I wanted to. How is this a legit hypnosis test?
"You were in a light state of hypnosis- Bullshit. That's dissociation, not hypnosis.
Same shit
Well, Jiji, those things are pretty similar to me
Hypnotism is a load of bollocks. I have missed my turning at a junction and cried during movies and i had no problem opening my eyes.
Your critical thinking sucks because being able to be hypnotized (missing a turn or crying) never meant you could be hypnotized here with very little effort.
+VideoMenu Missing a turn or crying during a movie is not being hypnotised.
+Davey Evans so How do you know that?
Hypnosis doesn't mean that you have to be awakened by someone - a lot of people fail to realise this for some reason.
Hypnosis is simply a state with lower brain activity and where you can be in deeper thought than normal, and this brain activity has actually been recorded with real equipment in one of the MythBusters episodes - you could literally see the subject's brain activity sink to an usually low level.
Davey Evans well part of the reason you can't be hypnotised is because you don't want to be. No matter how much you say you want to, here you are being a jerk and leaving this comment. This worked for me, truly, because I wanted it to happen (mainly just to prove you wrong)
I love it! 😄 every time i try it, it gets harder to open them
1:19 your tears are wet
1:15
When he said now gently open your eyes I jumped off my bed and was like seizure!!
omfg the first test worked but that shit scared me and i snapped out of it
Doc MC no reason to be scared
OMG me and my friend we legit like "OMG what just happened"
i just opened my eyes and they HURT!
This is amazing, when he snapped his finger, I tried to open my eyes but I can't, for about 3 secs, seems like there're two mind doing two jobs at the same time, one mind was tring to open my eyes, another was trying to close them, I've never experienced this before, like my mind is devided. I think the key is that he used two ways to suggest, his language was repeating one command, close your eyes, and his finger snapping was a signal to tell you to open your eyes. He told you to close your eyes once and once again, and he told you to shut them tighter and tighter, so this command goes deeper into your mind and your muscle, and you're keeping pushing your eyelids. Then he snapped finger, that signal is only a sound, sound is not contradictory to language, even it may stands for an opposite meaning. Your brain's reflection to that sound is to open your eyes, but he didn't told you to stop the first command, right? That previous "close" command was still in your head, you're quite busy pushing your eyelids, you were very concentrating, and now comes a new command "open", these two commands are contradictory in physics, but not in your head, which they should be if your not so busy closing your eyes or the command is clearer rather then a finger snap. All these above bring you to the consequence: you're trying to open your eyes while you're closing them. If the second command was delivered to you by language like"now relax your eyes, take a deep breath, now open your eyes slowly", then everything would be normal. The whole thing is more like a mind trick, he knows how your brain works and how to use that.
THAT WAS AWESOME!!!
That was some nex level shit....can't get over how I couldn't open up my eyes!
First time I couldn't open my eyes. So I tried it again but skipped right to the instructions and I was able to open my eyes. The beginning is preping you
for a second I couldn't open my eyes... I didn't find it funny
