http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00DvURJtn5o This is surely bullshit, but I'm not exactly a qualified expert so I just wanted to get opinions here. "Criss angel" purportedly hypnotizes people via subliminal messages in flyers he hands out, he has a huge success rate and also does a whole restaurant. M...

Ah, it's ok. I googled this guy and apparently he's well-known for using a bunch of stooges for his 'magic'. Still, pretty amazing that he would try and pass something like that off.

Yeah, the thing that pisses me off is he tries to peddle it as 'street magic' while most of the people seeing it 'live' are actually in on the trick.

Hi all, Well, basically I was just interested to hear thoughts and experiences regarding physical effects of hypnotic suggestions. I'm sure we've all heard of hypnosis altering body temperature and even the wonder stories of boosting people's immune systems and halting or regressing tumor growth and...

Firstly, many thanks for the responses guys, what you've both said has been pretty interesting. Blink, Actually I did think (up to) 30% was pretty substantial - as you pointed out it's almost a third and would potentially be useful on rest days. To be honest, upwards of 10% would be a very significa...

You know, I don't want to be offensive, but this whole thing sounds like a cheesy script from some kind of movie.

It's a matter of controversy whether subliminals work at all.

Here's a short document from a sceptical perspective, only 14 pages. It mentions the theory behind them, if nothing else it should give you some insight:

Hi everyone, Just kind of throwing this out there. Has anybody tried hypnosis via Skype? If recordings and whatever work then I think Skype might have a lot of potential, especially since the hypnotist can receive feedback and react to it in realtime, something that obviously isn't possible with a r...

Ah right cool, I guess if I was more active in the online hypnosis community I'd be more clued up on this, I guess I'm just catching up on the curve here. It just kind of occurred to me something like Skype is pretty much ideal for this, but I wasn't really sure whether it's prone to connections bei...

I've been doing my fair share of research on hypnotism, and I've come to the point of trying to 'test' a trance to see if it's legit and how deep it is. Simply gauging a trance is easy I suppose, but what are some methods to detect the legit behaviors of a trance? Or as a subject, how do you go abo...

Yeah, I guess the tactile stuff would be out of the question. Probably no instant-handshake methods either. Nice to hear you've has success with hypnosis using this sort of software. Pretty much it seems that, aside from a few obvious limitations, these programs are ideal for hypnosis, as long as th...

Yeah, basically what whatthe75 said.

Other things being equal, I usually prefer female.

I find men generally tend to be kinkier than women tbh.

Yeah, wait a while for it, this has a lot of opportunity.

Heh, there are vids on porn streaming sites like that too. Good luck cuck.
