Eli5, Is hypnosis real? How does it work? Is Darren Brown all real or fake?
In: 8
Way back in high school, I had a psychology teacher that hypnotized the class. He even taught us how to hypnotize ourselves.
He said that hypnosis is real, but the stuff you see on TV/movies where someone is hypnotized to kill another person is all fake. You can’t be hypnotized against your will and you can’t be hypnotized to do something you don’t want to do. For the hypnosis shows where people do crazy things after being hypnotized, the people are either in on the act (if it’s fake) or the hypnotized people enjoy performing and thus open themselves up to doing crazy things.
