Basically... it's terrifying to imagine that anyone could ever do that to any person, right?😱

Oh yeah, it’s a power that can make anyone do whatever the other person wants, even doing a naked chicken dance on live tv 😨.

It doesn't work like that. Something more like giving the suggestion (bad form here) "You are a chicken. You want to dance." But that's stage hypnotism and that sort of thing only really works on people who are both very suggestible and amicable to dancing like a chicken naked.

I knew that I was just cracking a silly joke 😅

I knew that

No, ya didn't. I was lyin'.

Just kidding. :)

PROTIP: Not everyone finds it terrifying.

HahAHahA!, certainly agree! 😝😝😝

@moarafatshow:

"manipulating" doesn't quite describe it. A hypnotist is closer to a story teller who guides an audience through a set of experiences than a "manipulator."
