WORLD-LEADING HYPNOTISTS React to Netflix’ “HYPNOTIC.” Chase Hughes ft. SpideyHypnosis 

Thanks for watching everyone!!! I had a blast reacting to this and learning from the best in the business.

two of my favorite behavior analysts! Love Chase and Spidey!

How did I NOT know Chase Hughes is also a hypnotist? Fascinating! So glad I checked back into this site. Setting notifications now! Thanks!

I love when Chase counts things or ⏲ times the actions for a breakdown. The logic is always intriguing.

Never thought I'd see the day when we could all watch a Master and Student break it down together.

I've had panic attacks most of my life & in my 30s in desperation I went for hynotherapy believing it was all rubbish, how wrong I was, its the best money I've ever spent in my life. She gave me audio copies of my sessions which I listened to daily sometimes twice a day & it made a huge difference to my life. I occasionally listen to them now if im stressed or can't sleep. The first thing she told me was whatever you see on tv its not hypnotherapy today is what hypnotherapy is & duly showed me. I'd recommend hypnotherapy to anyone.

Enjoyed this very much, Chase and Spidey. Love you, Chase, as part of the Behavior Panel ... so I shouldn't be surprised to have found myself very engrossed in what you two were saying. Your easy, laid-back demeanor is truly comforting and reads as very genuine. Please do more like this - and bring Spidey in as often as you can. You two mesh well and are fun to watch. Thanks for the gift of this video!!!

Okay, the dual-induction coffee machine story is hilarious! As a coffee drinker, I know the desperation and lengths we need to go to to get our fix!! Good job with this video, guys!

This is my first episode of you without The Panel. WOWZERS!! It was great!!!! Great guest!!

This has just appeared in my feed today. I hadn’t realised how old this video was. I’ve never heard of the film on NF too, so going to watch that tonight. You are both amazing together. I can’t wait to see more of your collaborations. 😊

I've been in hypnotherapy and was taught self-hypnosis 25 years ago and can still do it. I've found that (maybe because I associated it this way) for physical issues, (defeating a nicotine habit) the head to feet visual was more effective and for psychological issues (motivation, self-image) the feet to head visual was more effective. PS-Grocery stores and department stores are designed and laid out to "hi-jack your auto-pilot". I've observed people who aren't focused stay in a grocery store over 3 hours. Grocery stores are especially effective at it because they are warehouses of food, a basic human need. Department stores not as much, but still more hypnotic, to those with disposable income, and the ability to spend money on their appearance and material possessions.

I've seen a performance of a hypnotist on stage --he hypnotized my friend, who I talked with afterwards. He had no recall of what transpired; he was like, "OK, when are you going to start with the show?" The hypnotist told him while he was under, that he was Elvis Presley, and told him to sing one of his songs. My friend KNOWS that he can't sing, so he just "sang" the phrase, "Ain't nuthin' but a hound dog..." and that was it. Based on the body language, tone and demeanor of the hypnotist in first scene of the movie, that read to me as "creepy", and I wouldn't let someone like that within ten feet of me, much less hypnotize me! Along these same lines, I'd like you to do an analysis of an old movie, called "The Hypnotic Eye". Thanks so much for posting this and all of your analysis!

Spidey + Chase Hughes = 🥇 31:57 “Chase, what do you got?” 😅😂🤣

Spidey - "You're not going to come across someone who can do this" Chase - little lopsided smile

Chase! I had no idea you are also a hypnotist!!! Now that I know, I can totally see it! That’s incredible, you never cease to surprise us!!! Thank you for all you do to educate us. This video was very interesting!

Chase always hypnotizes me. I am going to subscribe to Spidey right now.

Love this! I’ve been following the Behaviour Panel and delighted to be a member with Body Language Tactics but I’m new to Spidey. Very excited new subscriber - great work guys and absolutely fascinating!

As a doula I am off to research what Chase described happens to the unborn baby's body if mom is attacked. Fascinating.

This just In: Coffee machine hypnotizes two hypnotists.

Can't beat an analysis by experts like these. I haven't thought about hypnosis therapy for a long time. Learned a lot.

Hypnotherapist got me over my fear of spiders. I had nightmares about them and my fear was terrible. I don’t like them but they no longer terrify me. It’s nice since I live in a state where Aug and Sept the amount of spiders hanging from trees, climbing wall, etc is enough to give anyone nightmares.

Very interesting! I’m a sleep tech and have always wanted to do an EEG on a person under hypnosis. I find it fascinating.

Spidey I think you are the only person who can make Chase's eyes glow like this with enthusiasm. I love you guys

I really enjoyed watching the two of you. I did not realize Spidey was a world famous hypnotist. I watch his podcast and enjoyed his Depp trial work. Of course I watched The Behavior Panel ! Thanks guys!

I love hypnosis, helped me so much. I was able to quit smoking and didn't gain weight. The Dr was retired from Stanford and he and his cronies were going around the US to help any government employees, with any problems they were having. I was very impressed with his knowledge and how well his therapy worked. I bought the tape to listen to for 21 days. He said the sleep Drs had found that being hypnotized once will last about 3 days. Because when we sleep, our brain, that was given new information will undo all the suggestions we are given. I wish I could remember his name. It helped me be a healthier and happier person. Thanks Chase and Spidey. I loved the critique of the movie. I will not be going to see it.

🦋🎨 Just re-watched this video, and it was as good as I remembered. You both are amazing. Hard to believe it was two years ago that I watch this for the first time - it only seems like a minute🤣. And it’s wonderful after watching both of you and numerous videos over the past two years that you both remain solid, mentor people that are still what you portrayed yourself as when I first came across you. I don’t know if you know how rare that is, but I feel it is. Thank you both for being who you are.

Chase, I'm so stoked to watch your video! I'm thrilled that you're helping to unfold skepticism and bring to light the benefits.

Chase, I know you from following the behavior panel (love that channel). this was such an engaging episode. I love hypnosis. it really has made more of a difference in my life than any other therapy practice.I am buying your book today and will binge on all that you have here on your Channel. I'm ready to do more hypnosis and I know I will greatly benefit from your wisdom and skills. Spidey nice to meet you 😊 I am going to subscribe to your Channel right now and we'll jump in to all that you offer. I'm so thankful for people like you and Chase. blessings to you both!

How do we go about finding a good or accredited hypnotherapist? Great conversation and I’m going to find your book Chase! Ty! 🙂

Chase has the perfect voice to hypnotize.

How am I just now seeing this?! I guess it's because I have only been watching Spidey and The Behavior Panel since the Depp/Heard trial began. As a hypnotherapist, I am fascinated by this analysis of a Netflix show which I've never heard of. I also didn't know that these two gentlemen, who I have admired immensely prior to seeing this, were hypnotherapists. I'm still watching this, but I was always taught that hypnosis cannot make you do anything that you are morally or ethically opposed to. I have never regretted becoming a certified hypnotherapist. I've helped many people quit smoking, reduce pain, alleviate fears and phobias, and even explore past lives (which is a special training in and of itself). It's a wonderful career that I thoroughly enjoyed.

I feel like I’m a Chase Hughes stalker (and Mark, Scott & Greg) lol but your skills are so FASCINATING!! I LOVE the quartet of knowledge. I DO have a question following this…are we, as viewers of television, able to become hypnotized by watching a movie (not necessarily this one) along with the subject on the tv?

I had to comment because I've been subscribed to you both for sometime. The Behavioral Panel with Chase and The Behavioral Arts with Spidey. I hope you do more videos together, I thought it was great. Thank you. 🤗

Learning new things about Chase! Love watching TBP and Chase always cracks me up, plus he's easy to look at AND intelligent!

I'm blown away... I'm a new panelist on your other channel (1 week) and this video was in my feed this morning, so my first one on your personal channel.

Loved it....perhaps include Spidey in an episode of Behavior Panel. Love the 4 daddios!

I have not read the other comments, and your replys at this point. Beyond your analysis of the hypnosis, which for the most part us stellar, I believe the whole point of this movie is to bring MKULtra into the awareness of the masses. You mention that the lymbic system cannot be bypassed by hypnosis. And I would agree. However, the use of drugs, torture and other factors are NOT hypnosis. There have been relatively recent and extremely cruel Pavlovian type experiments with dogs (which I find nearly as reprehensible as MKULTRA) where response to continuous shock reached a state of no-response. The escape from pain was so far beyond the, dare I say 'hope' or 'expectation' of the tortured dogs, that the dogs simply gave up the natural fff responses and accepted the new normal. It's kind of like when you live by a rail yard and constantly hear trains go by. After a time you dismiss the sound of trains from conscious awareness. I truly am angered that most people are not able to analyse the movie content and are hypnotized or influenced to demonize hypnosis as a legitimate and very useful therepy.

I’m like a kid at Christmas finding this video. And I had no idea you are a hypnotherapist, but of course you are. Love Spidey too, please do more together.

This was really good. I have taken many classes on hypnotherapy and was a licensed hypnotherapist. Unfortunately, I did not keep my license up. I have seen Chase many times and on several different shows. I have also watched Spidey on his show and have seen him with Chase. I really appreciate what you do. I could listen to Chase all day teach me anything at all. I enjoy your shows together. Chase, you and your family are in my prayers. I bet your little one is doing lots of cute things now. I hope to see more of your work as I learn a lot. It must be the tone of your voice and I can see why you are good at what you do. Thank you both for teaching the truth. See you next time.

This is so surreal.... I just got my book, "Six-Minute X-Ray" and am waiting on your other book, "The Ellipsis Manual" ... I bought these because of "Spidey"... I have been watching all of his GREAT videos on Behavior Analysis... NOW... what is weird here is this... I want to do more research on Behavior Analysis... because I am an Acting Teacher, for Film, TV, & Stage... NOT knowing that the two of you do Hypnotherapy.... How small is this world? I have been doing Hypnotherapy since 1974... (yes, I just told my age, I'm 67 years young)... When "Tapping" and Child Bearing (birthing) was new, at least to me. I had my son Jason in 1975 with NO drugs at all and used Hypnosis and then again when I was almost 40 with my daughter Candace.... I finally get my certification, even though I have been using it for over 45 years... What are the odds that we're all Hypnotherapist... LOVE that... Thank you both for all that you do... OH and I bought the book "SPY the LIE" ... Thank you both for this great Video... Love this...

Amazing! Wow this was fascinating and learning that there are hypnotherapy practitioners that treat depression, PTSD, anxiety, panic attacks, etc… just gave awesome knowledge and now hope. Thank you so much, Spidey and Chase, I am incredibly grateful. And I completely believe the story about the coffee maker. LOL!

I got “The Ellipsis Manual”. I’m also a certified hypnotist in various techniques. I’m not a “licensed therapist” though. I decided to learn hypnotism to understand myself better and why I tend to be more submissive to dominant men. And why I’ve let them control me. I have always been interested in psychology and how our minds work. People have a misconception about hypnotists. They think hypnotists control their minds. No. They are catalysts. I was surprised when I did Past Life Regression on my over analytical ex boyfriend. We were both amazed that he went back to about 5 lifetimes. He gave different detail on each lifetime, etc. He was not led. Even though past lives are not proven, it was amazing enough just to see that someone who is over analytical, could reach that state of imagination(if that is what it was). I am also a SUPER Empath and quite psychic(being triple Pisces) so naturally I can see beyond a person’s facade. And I’m a natural healer. Now I want to see this movie!

Had to watch this as Spidey was also on. You are two of my favourites. Thanks for this. I was always desperate to know if hypnosis could help with things like giving up smoking and weight loss or recalling happenings in childhood.

My parents went to one of these shows & my mom she never thought this actually was true! Well this day she was really tired & just kind of sitting there listening! They told them to put their arm up & she couldn't put her arm down! She had to go up on stage she didn't wanto but she had no choice! She became a true believer that day! 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

THIS COLLAB IS EVERYTHING!!!

This was awesome!!! Nice to meet you Spidey! I found you through Chase. 😋lol!

Any intelligent man who still can blush is a real human and a very honest man to me. Chase Hughes blushes a lot, he is that kind of guy that becomes a rare specimen. His emotions are real. It feels like he never really lost his innocence and it doesn't hurt that he is on top of all is very intelligent and...handsome❤

Of course you counted the light cycle 💀 same as counting eye flutter, breathing pattern, etc. really like seeing you react and evaluate with others

I added some audio books on RU-vid to listen to. One happened to coincidentally be “The Parasite” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published in 1894! And was a story not unlike this film as well as the things you were talking about.

I’d love to see more on the topic of hypnotism and the practical uses. AND/OR information on how to choose a hypnotist to help with either smoking cessation, overeating, drug usage, etc. How can a person can make a confident decision finding a legit hypnotist.

Another fascinating video/critique by Mr Hughes. Thank you for the introduction to Spidey, I’m now a subscriber. I’ve not heard of this movie so I will be making my way over to Netflix now. Chase, I’m still stunned by your critique of Sirhan Sirhan. Maybe it’s that I’m trying to wrap my mind around the theory of mind control/hypnosis/persuasion to have someone kill Robert Kennedy, in public and that this has been in practice or research for sooooo long. And by the government no less. Call me naïve. More ugly ways to hurt other human beings that’s gone on for centuries smh. 🌻

A mashup I didn't know I needed, but am SOOO thankful for!!! There's something so cool about finding channel crossover!!

After your break down , Which I think yous should do a WIRED breakdown, The first thing I though was get rid of your bleeping phone, do not evver answer a blocked/ unknown caller, don't know why the cop didn't set that up. Guess they wouldn't have a movie.

Thank you Spidey & Chase. Very interesting to watch. Chase this is the first time I have seen you ever talk about hypnosis. Given the situation was involving a suspenseful movie of fiction. It was still fascinating to see a small amount of your knowledge of the world of hypnosis Chase❣️

I run a church watchdog ministry and I'm working to expose "wolves" that exploit and manipulate their congregations. I'm wondering if it's possible for pastors to use hypnosis unethically as a part of their sermons and church services (and the worship service) to hypnotize people. This is very interesting and I'm looking forward to learning more!

I am enjoying this conversation! Thanks you guys!

Thank you so much, both of you amazing people, for this great review ❤️ Very interesting. Been thinking about going to a hypnotherapist for a long time now. Thanks again ✨

My dad went to a hypnotherapist to stop smoking. He came out saying he never even went under, it was a waste of time. But he never touched a cigarette again.

Yay Spidey! His Will Smith Oscars video is what led me down this rabbit hole of behavior analysis.

If I had the means Chase, I would definitely want you to see me for lifelong anxiety. You are someone I would trust to do that. I can't trust just anyone. I get a very soothing vibe from you, which I noticed on the Behavior Panel. The hypnotist in the movie I could never trust. I knew he was lying when he told her she always has control. Also, there is something in his voice that seems manipulative to me. I don't think I will be watching this movie. If I am ever hypnotized some day, I want to go into it cold.

I saw a video done by Chase Hughes that was about MK Ultra and it was frightening. At the end of the video, Chase switched his voice to a very calm, soothing voice and explained that we were safe, that the chance of any of us being involved in this weird reality was incredibly small, we were safe. Your voice, Chase, that calming, soothing voice terrified me almost more than the info you had been giving earlier. My thought was, "he's doing it now!" :)

Awww buddies! I wanna hear more about the adventures of Chase & Spidey! There’s a dope reality/adventure/educational show there. 💘

I was called on stage with 2 other people at a hypnotherapy. I wanted so badly to be hypnotized, but nothing happened I kept sitting there wondering if th others were faking or if I just can't be hypnotized. After, I did speak to the hypnotist and he said some people can't be hypnotized I was bummed but also wondered about it. Any thoughts?

This is mind-blowing! I had no idea that hypnotherapy could be this powerful.

This subject is always fascinating. Are people looking for an explanation for the crazy behaviors they are are witnessing?

Awesome content and thank you for reassuring people that hypnosis can be so beneficial vs "hollywood's version" of it. Loved this collaboration.

You two are on to a great interest of millions I’d think. Good luck! Two very likable people.

Found this fascinating. Great show Chase and Spidey. Thankyou❤️🌻

When I’ve done hypnotherapy it always seems so much quicker than time it really took. Chase is everything. ❤️

I wish you both had a show together.

The studies where people were told their arm was burning & red marks actually appeared.. makes me think about people who believe they're being attacked by spiritual or unseen forces & supposedly marks appear..

I've spent over 30 years dealing with severe chronic pain, tried everything. Almost; didn't try hypnotherapy, didn't think it could work. Chase's assertion that it can help pain just convinced me to try it. I've been a Chase Hughes fan for quite a while now, and have tremendous respect for him. If I find hypno that helps with my pain, I can honestly say he saved my life.

I've done hypnotherapy since my early 20s for PTSD and unrecovered trauma, up until a year ago in my late 50s. I've never had any of the positive experiences/outcomes that you've described. I wish I did. Could submerged trauma be so bad that it just can't be recovered through hypnosis?

I didn’t know about the Netflix movie until after watching this critique. I agree with Spidey, Chase does seem to be perfect at everything. Maybe I should start waking up at 5am instead of 6.

I start at the feet when doing progressive relaxation tied with guided imagery. Since my brain/thinking is involved in telling each muscle group to tense, then relax, then, melt away into either deep, cool darkness or float away into warm sunshine, by starting at the toes/feet. The last part to close down is my brain/thoughts. Thus, leaving my entire body and consciousness are in limbo and relaxed...usually asleep.

now, this was a scrary video. even more scary than the TBP videos on psychopaths. so certain people can do whatever they want with you? and there is nothing you can do about it? scary, scary stuff. but anyway, you got me when you talked about joint pain and restless leg syndrome... yep, going to search some more about that. great video

Chase, I love how Spidey took over your show (see what I did there? Associative language :)), and more importantly, how you were just totally cool about it! But you are both so fascinating to watch and learn from! Thanks a million for these videos, which are tutorials for me. Grazie, grazie!!

All due respect, MKUltra being "officially stopped" does not mean actually stopped. Enjoyed the collaboration, informative & entertaining.

I loveeeeeee hearing both of you talking about hypnotherapy :) I am also a hypnotherapist and hearing other therapists makes me learn even more. Great job!

Fascinating!! I thought hypnosis was a bunch of BS. I’m very happy to learn otherwise!

This is the first time I have seen Spidey. I think, however, that the two of you are really good in this context and would like to see the both of you do more of this stuff. Its like both of you together, coming from what I believe is different backgrounds, are entertaining to watch and really interesting to listen to. I really like all your videos Chase but, yeah, good combination of personalities here.

Thanks for this episode. Have being reading your book Chase. RAS - Reticular Activation System..... I walked into a room full of guys working on their PC's (Some even wearing headphones)... I Said "Hi Guys" in a casual even tone volume, and only about 3 guys greeted back. THEN I came back few minutes later and entered room same way as before, and with the same tone and volume said "Guys there's a fire"... YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN HOW EVERY ONE TURNED TOWARDS ME . LOL!!! I was so surprised!!!!! ....

I'd love to see you two react to Derren Brown's special where he essentially hypnotizes a Manchurian candidate. Really anything of his would be great but specifically that special would be pretty fantastic.

Chase is a one off thats for sure... I could listen to him for hours... He is my hero.😍

Something for you guys to analyze: netflix had a reality show where a subject was manipulated to push someone over a ledge. It wasn't hypnosis but they used a range of psychological tools. Spoiler alert, he doesn't push the target. But they ran the same experiment 3 other times and each other person did believe they were killing him. He was safe with bungie gear under his clothes. There was a lot of social pressure used. It's like Milgram a bit. How would you advise people to build up their protection against this kind of manipulation? Refusing to rationalize lies seems a good path but so few do it. Another question is, how do you pull someone out who has been brainwashed? There's a confirmation bias which seems very hard to overcome.

Thank you for your courage. Thank you for your openness. Thank you for willingness to share such a personal and difficult journey. All the best to you and your family.

Fun review and the coffee maker story is delightful, I can see it!

Chase you're hilarious. I couldn't imagine you being serious about hypnosis and cracking jokes into the conversation. 🤣 Great content will be watching for more brainwashing repetition repetition.. 😅👌

So great to see both Chase and Spidey working together. I sub to both your channels 👍🏼

Cool! Thanks Chase! I was thinking of watching this movie and wondered how much of it would be realistic.

Such an interesting discussion! When Chase is describing induced anaphylaxis it reminded me of a well documented War torture. Prisoners would be blindfolded opposite one another, and chained to a wall. Then after some time Prisoner No 1 would have his blindfold removed, and be made to watch while prisoner No 2 had his wrists slit (so he died), and then prisoner No 1 was blindfolded again. Later they would return to him, and without removing his blindfold, they would pass ice across his wrists (he was tied up with arms spread apart). On feeling the drops of water from the melting ice, that prisoner also died, believing his wrists had been slashed and that it was his blood pouring out instead of the melting ice.

Like ghosts and aliens, hypnotism to me is fascinating, but as much as I want to believe, I just can't until I experience those things myself.

Chase, in your analysis of her buying the sesame seed oil on command would take 15-20 years of therapy, would your analysis of the Sirhan Sirhan possibility of hypnosis have taken that many years? The woman in the polka dot dress jumped out at me. Curious!

Awesome stuff, Chase! Always love to see new uploads from you!

That’s was a really nice smile from chase at the beginning, I expect this to be an enjoyable peice.

Ooh, I think you should break down the movie Chaos Walking next. It’s such a nice intro to ego, imo. My only gripe is it’s only men have “the noise”.

Dudes! You both know me (I hope) from previous comments. I just now, sitting here with my ankle propped, realized that I've led a remarkable life. 🤯 RU-vid isn't the platform to elaborate on that, but thank you both even if you don't know why. ❤

I love both guys!!! This was a great vid. Do more vids together about anything. Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

So interesting, listening to you two reminds me of watching surgery on TV/Netflix of Medical shows with another nurse!

Watching this, I thought of a cool idea for a Behavior Panel segment. Why not analyze the reactions and behavior of people under hypnosis (at a stage hypnosis show). Are their reactions/emotions real, or are participants faking it or just really good at improv acting? They always seem to be genuine to me, so I think it would be fun to hear the experts take on it :)
