I've bought this book, read it once and its dangerous! By that I mean it really really works. I'm going to read it a second and third time just so I can wake people up properly and have more ideas for what to do. I had my first real success last saturday.
The scene, A dinner party with a few close friends who know that I do magic.
The senario, I was asked to do a couple of tricks so I showed them a couple of things then we get to a little more nibbles etc (All IB through out this has been included with my knowledge

) when I pipes up to the one guy I only met that night for the first time that I do hypnotism. Yes he of having read this little tome only once. He's willing to give it a go I start off with the first induction test thingy with the index fingers and as his fingers touch he just stares at his fingers struggling to seperate them. I click all of a sudden that he must be "under" so I tried the arm one and that works a treat then I put him asleep for real. The fun I had plus the other guests was off the scale.
What I did: Hand Stuck to glass, glass stuck to table, unable to drink the glass no mater how thirsty or how much he wanted to do, invisible friend to floating object to friend reappearing out of the blue on a command word. He says a word every time someone says hello. Friend being Samuel L jackson then the most good looking guy in the world to me being Keanu Reeves ( I really knew he was under at this point

) Forgetting the number seven to feet stuck to the floor and really needing the loo (cheers Beard) I sent him to sleep and woke him up feeling nice and refreshed but 15/20 mins later we're having normal dinner convo and someone says your 27 aren't you X he insisted he was 28 and that last year he was 26 (back to sleep and wake him up again) hence the wanting to read a 2nd time.
Result: This is amazing, you won't believe its for real at first if you're an "unbeliever" like me. Fun? You betcha it is,
Previous reading: ZERO
Verdict: 10/10 for me, and the author gets back to you in no time. Cheers and thanks for reading this random story.
PS the next time I see this guy its hand shake induction time at least an attempt
