=====

it's light induced hypnosis.. not all people are susceptible to it, if you are, unlucky you, certain light flash frequencies/rates can cause for you to be in a 'sleep-like' state.. the rate can be slow/fast, either can trigger the light induced trance.. ..

coolness...


but.. looks staged.. most probably is.. i mean light induced hypnosis is like REALLY REALLY rare.. what are the chances of the first person trying the game to be susceptible to it? and also.. a horn to break the trance? LOL

Pretty interesting...

You could be right about it being faked, or at least the 2 people who didn't get hypnotised had known of this for a while.

My verdict ---> FAKE.

Honestly, too unrealistic, but what do I know about hypnosis?...nothing. But from watching the tape, I find it hard to believe.

If I ever see those kind of games at local amusement parks I'll be the first in line.

When I get games from blockbuster they normally have a warning about what the light can do to you telling you not to play for more than like an hour at a time. It even goes on telling you that you could have seizures. I don't know know anyone who has that problem but it would be scarey having that happening to you.

well i know that if i look at a computer screen for 6 hours straight it starts to hurt my eyes a bit... lol i guess that's a kind of hypnosis :P

it wouldn't surprise me if it worked though, i mean, people claim that listening to certain types of music can make you smarter... mind you, i'm a bit skeptical about that too.

actually, speaking of games that can hypnotise people, has anyone heard of mutant storm or space tripper? Fantastic arcade games, but the graphics are absolutely mental - bright pinks and blues and greens... absolutely amazing! check out www.pompomgames.com, and take a look at the screenshots!

cheers :P

AHAHAHAHAHA :P :P that has to be the funniest thing i seen in awhile, even though hypnosis is real, you need to be an expert to pull it off, it has a good reality tv thing going duping people to play the game and then scare the bejesus out of them.

but yeah i would have to say its a game stunt.

Yeah seriously, if I was that guy's friend I would have thought that they were trying to kidnap him or something but those two just went with them, not questioning their motifs at all.
