More Hand sticking!

Whilst we're on the topic of sticking hands to things. Matt was kind enough to help me out with this demonstration. I may have mentioned this before in a previous post, but I build expectation of my subjects that I hypnotise for the first time. Everyone knows that they are going to forget a name or a number, and everyone knows that they are going to get their hand stuck to something.

This a) sets up expectation, and b) it's a common talking experience amongst my friends when they say "oh yeah, he did that thing and that was really crazy" rather than "did he make you forget your name? nah, he stuck my foot to the floor".

And whilst it may be boring to watch me stick people's hands to stuff over and over, it's always interesting to see how people react and I can guarantee, that if you go back though every video, it's with awe and surprise that this weird phenomena has occurred.
