hypnosis

         Recently I watched a Tv show on hypnosis and about how far that it could go. They took four people and took them through at first just some simple hypnosis things like act like a monkey. Once they saw that they could all by hypnotised, they began the process of four stages. Stage one and two were still pretty simple with all four contenders easily getting through it, troubles came at stage three. It was to lay in water at 34 degrees for three minutes. The first two lasted a soaring 15 seconds, and the third doubling them lasting 30 seconds. It wasn't until all their hope was given up when the last contender lasted the bearing cold for all two minutes. He was the only one to move on to the final stage, assassination. Could someone be under hypnosis so much that they could be triggered to kill someone? The answer is yes, he 'assassinated' a man under hypnosis. Obviously this was an experiment and no one was actually killed or injured.
           This is rather scary to me, I would be terrified if I was the one that 'killed' someone. The way they presented this was rather well, with showing scenes of whats happening with the experiment and then an experts view. They had camera angles from every angle and were hidden adding to the suspense. I would be interested in watching more shows like this were they see just how far they could push the ability of a human brain. Also it would good for them to maybe show a video of what goes on in the brain while under hypnosis.
