The beginning of Jason Mystic's Staged Hypnosis--seeking the qualified.

Seeking those qualified for hypnosis.

The subjects...

The subjects getting sleepy...

The subjects very sleepy

Allie and Brooke

Tim and Kayla

Alyssa (slumped forward), Kayla (slumped backward)

Jakob, most sleepy.

Jakob, comfy.

David, out.

Jason Mystic (hypnotist) tells subjects there are in a movie theater.

Allie and Brooke in the imaginary movie theater.

Jakob, in the imaginary movie theater, turning around to see why the movie has stopped.

Jakob after being told the imaginary movie is a funny one.

Subjects watching the "funny movie".

The movie is VERY funny.

Alyssa looking back at the imaginary projection booth to see why the movie has stopped.

Hypnotist Jason Mystic now tells subjects that the movie theater is getting cold.

The theater is getting colder.

Allie getting colder in the theater

Kayla bundles up in the very cold movie theater.

Jakob feels the cold movie theater.

David warms his hands in the VERY cold theater

Now hypnotist Jason Mystic tells subjects they are driving in their favorite car. Hands are on the "steering wheel".

Jakob's grabs his steering wheel near the floor. He reported his car was a purple Ford Ranger.

Allie's favorite vehicle was a "lime green bus". Brooke, on the right, reported that her car was a "blue Lamborghini".

David, driving his imaginary car.

Jakob is looking at the imaginary car of girls that has pulled up on his right.

Imaginary cop has pulled over Jakob who was "going" 100 mph.

Allie has just learned that drivers of lime green busses receive TRIPLE fines.

Allie hoping the imaginary cop does not ticket her

Allie relieved--no ticket.

Back to sleep.

Kyle, laughing becuase another subject can't remember their last name.

Kayla, who had been told that the number 8 didn't exist, is concerned that she has 11 fingers.

Kayla is left to figure out where the 11th finger came from.

Kyle, laughing because another subject can't remember where they're from.

Now Kalya counts her fingers by 2's, and finds she has 12 fingers.

Kayla abandons trying to figure out how many fingers she has.

Left: Allie, "Martian Language Translator". Right: Jakob, "Martian".

In "Martian Language", Allie asks Jakob how long it took him to travel to Earth from Mars. He answered in "Martian", which Allie translated as "7,000 years".

When these folks heard "Jason Mystic", they were immediately convinced their shoes were on the wrong feet.

R-->L and L-->R

All "better".

When they heard "Jason Mystic" again, they were again convinced their shoes were on the wrong feet. This time they were right.

Shoes back to correct feet.

Marc

Now the subjects are watching an imaginary horse race through "high powered binoculars".

Watching the race through different interpretations of "binoculars".

Allie watching her imaginary horse through "binoculars". At this point her horse is way out in front.

David and Marc

Kayla watches her imaginary horse.

...

Watching the "horses" through the a turn.

Kyle is convinced his Horse #10 has already lost.

Allie excited for her horse...

Allie hears (and believes she sees) that her Horse #6 is going to win...

... then the hypnotist tells her the horse falls on the final turn...

... and she throws down her binoculars.

Julia and Casey, no sympathy.

When asked if his Horse #8 won, he replied "That's what they tell me."

Tim

Subjects received the post-hypnotic suggestion that they would remember everything they did the second they stepped out of SES, but then forget it the moment they stepped inside SES.

Disbelief that they'd been on stage for over an hour.

An hour?
