A Thai hypnotist/ illusionist. You can checkout his other clips at:

In this clip, the guy uses rapid induction on a passerby - puts her into a trance, and then poses her. I need to learn this!

Bloody awesome. I have seen a similar thing when i was in China Town NYC a few years back. This guy walked around in this underground mall and then using some kind of rapid induction (handshake and then something else) was able to put the girl into a deep trance. He made her freeze like a statue and left her there in a funny pose for a couple minutes . . . eyes open. Imagine that ! Definitely not a setup because there were no set audiences, and he left after he finished posingher. I think the guy was just showing off his skills. I really gotta learn this . . .

Wow.
He does this way much faster than I do...

I'm all for stuff like this..if the hypnotist has permission first. Walking around putting people into trances without asking them first isn't really all that good. People don't deserve to be used like that.

C'Mon. This is total BS. Just another kind of performance art.
If you can get someone to set up a camera and tape this, you can get some female friend to pretend to be instantly hypnotized.

Anone who actually had this power wouldn't be wasting it pulling pranks on the street in front of cameras and trying to get attention on the Internet.
