Okay, so it's not a big wank but I'm hoping it'll make up for that with the hilarity of the clip that goes with it.

So, for some reason Paul McKenna hypnotises Richard Hammond into thinking he can't drive a car amongst other things.

Top Gear Hypnotising action!.


Jaydcoke
To those who asked if it's fake, no it isn't. Paul McKenna is a well known hypnotist. Also, the gestures and language he employs are correct - I'm a hypnotherapist and can vouch for that. Anyway, it makes for a really funny clip! LOL

FP791
are you faggots retarded?

IT'S FAKE.

ALL Hypnotism is fake. Can one scientifically prove it works?

If they could do that then ALL hynotists should be billionaires...

I can copy the same gestures... just because he's "well known" doesn't mean it's true f(_)cktard.

Why are you so stupid?

Jaydcoke
Despite your rudeness and obnoxiousness: Hypnotherapy has been accepted by the American Medical Association since 1958. Besides emotional and physical conditions it is also used for anaesthesia-free childbirth. 1000s of women have had safe, painless childbirth. Fake, huh? And it's not only gestures. Learn something for a change: check out some hypnosis websites, gain some information and knowledge and rise a little from the depths of uncivil, insolent and impertinent ignorance you have plumbed.

FP791
this is why you're retarded...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypnosis

it's a THEORY, it's not proven...

Maybe YOU should read up on this shit.

This shit is not PROVEN it's just that the general population (you) are stupid enough to believe in it....

Answer me why all hypnotists are not billionaires?

if you hate the vid, dont comment, cause frankly i dont give a shit about anyones opinion, so fuck off, and really get a life

Listen, people generally believe that this is true, Paul McKenna has also helped hundreds of people improve their lives.
What gives you the right ot insult them, and be incredibly rude???
Also, it has been proven that it has worked. After all it is Einsteins 'THEORY' of relativity, that is generally believed.

Silversurfer604
buuuh, scary. But he uses to NLP technics. So hard core mind manipulation. Dont think this cind of abuse is good

shadereturn
it aint rubbish NLP, UPW, Landmark forum. Its all there. Paul has his own t.v programm, he writes books about this. So if you disagree you'd better check it out or your idoits.

Tiny, yes. But come on, Top Gear wank about hypnotising!

ETA: Munchkinott has linked us to something even better: Godwin's Caravanning Top Gear Wank of DOOM.


In which James May is accused of being evil for saying "work sets you free". ZOMG reference to Auschwitz!

And honestly, who cares? Fake or otherwise, it was ENTERTAINING. Especially poor little Richard's reaction when he saw the playback.

Hmph. I don't see where the big controversy over hypnotism comes from. To me, it's just indoctrination on a more extreme and individually focused scale. We grow up subconsciously inheriting certain attitudes and ideas. I don't know it's so radical to think we can't do the same at a smaller but more powerful level with the right person. Likewise, hypnotism, like cultural influence, isn't foolproof; it has its flaws, and not everybody is subsequently vulnerable to it. (Personally, I think we walk through life hypnotised to a certain extent: psychology is powerful enough for us to believe that a doctor's placebo had an effect, or that certain companies' gas can drive us further, better, or can make or break the condition of a terminal patient. If our mind believes it, the rest of the body will follow through doing its best to make it real.)

...

And those are my thoughts on yaoi.

Witchcraft and pocketmen aside, I have at least heard that people hypnotize themselves so they don't need anaesthetic during surgery.

I have no real comment on the wank because the stupid it takes to wank over Top Gear is just too much to comprehend.

And so I bring you Eddie Izzard on Top Gear instead:

Woo Eddie! And he gets all nauseous at the end.

Haaaaa. I've actually seen this already since I search for hypnotism stuff on YouTube frequently. Mostly because I'm a freak who finds the voices of most hypnotists to be exceedingly calming-- the same reason I search for Bob Ross videos on YouTube. To relax!

Frankly, I don't care if hypnotism is real or not. I enjoy watching it, and that's enough for me.

Of course hypnotism is real! Didn't you know that the CIA secretly brainwashes people into voting for Bush? IT'S A CONSPIRACY.

That, and one of my favorite manga villains uses brainwashing/hypnotism, and it makes her fucking terrifying.

I couldn't bring myself to care about the wank. I was too busy drooling over the Alfa and laughing my ass off at the video.

But yeah, having nearly been hypnotized once, I found it pretty convincing.

About a year ago, I needed some random credits to keep my full time status, so I took Intro Psych. Since I'd already had two different Educational Psych courses and a Personality Psych course, I basically could nap through class. This was an intro class, full of lots of weird people.

One of them was this greasy, balding guy who had to be the age of one of my parents who I made the mistake of speaking to once before class. He spends many other opportunities trying to talk to me. On the day of the final, I notice he gets up right after I turn mine in, and I'm powerwalking down the hallway to avoid him.

But he calls to me, so I stop because I can't be OVERTLY rude. What does he want to show me? His expired hypnotist's license. Because that's going to make you look less creepy.
