Hpnotist and mentalist John Pullum (web) demonstrates a classic suggestibility test with an audience in a way that you can join the fun.  Follow his instructions and enjoy the effect yourself.  This test can also be converted straight into a formal hypnotic induction but is here used as a simple demonstration of imaginative concentration.  John is a regular on television in the United States and is also active on myspace (see my myspace where you will find him listed among friends).  Folks who take my Speed Hypnosis course will learn this and other hypnotic conversion methods.

All the best,
Brian
