Can anyone be hypnotized?
Yes. In fact we all enter hypnosis throughout the day. Hypnosis occurs naturally when we become so deeply absorbed in a book or movie, that we lose interest in events that are happening around us. We also go into a state of hypnosis when we daydream and while we drive a car.

Do only weak-minded people make good hypnotic subjects?
No. The best hypnotic subjects are often intelligent, strong willed people with active imaginations. Weak-minded individuals may be more difficult to hypnotize because of their lack of focus.

Do people become slaves to the hypnotist, and do anything he says?
This is a common misconception. People usually will believe this because of how hypnosis has been portrayed through the media. It is incorrect. Hypnotized subjects are in complete control of their faculties and will not violate their own moral code of ethics.

Is hypnosis satanic?
No, hypnosis is definitely not satanic. It is a naturally occurring phenomenon and has nothing to do with the occult, witchcraft, or any other New Age practice. I have to laugh when I meet people and they won’t make eye contact with me. Do they think I can actually start doing parts of my show on them right then and there? I can’t. But if I could…I probably would. LAUGHS

Michael opens each show with his inconceivable mentalism "miracles". Unbelievable things happen: Predictions made months before the show come true. Michael correctly reveals audience member's birthdays, phone numbers, and social security numbers - just by having volunteers concentrate on them.

Then, after Michael addresses some questions about hypnosis, he has 30-40 audience volunteers run up to the stage to be hypnotized. It is at that point the show really begins - your friends will instantly fall asleep at the snap of Michael's finger, and upon awakening they will forget their names, go on an imaginary journey to the Bahamas, turn into celebreties and have extreme hallucinations.
