Finally, someone is going after those damn hypnotists!

For too long they’ve been messing with people! Turning them in chickens and…I don’t remember what else I haven’t seen a hypnotist act in a couple decades. I don’t live in Vegas or a nursing home.

A man is suing a hypnotist for $456,692 claiming he hurt his knee while dancing in a deep trance that didn’t end when he left the stage.

The complainant, who works as an exterminator in Granby, Que., claims he was in “deep hypnosis and…had no control of his movements” after agreeing to go onstage.

The lawsuit says Messmer asked the volunteers to dance the French Cancan, which involves suggestive moves and high leg kicks.

Morneau claims he felt a “sharp pain in his right knee that caused him to fall on the people around him and prevented him from continuing to dance” said his injury left him unable to walk.

So that’s how they do it? They leave customers unable to leave the show. No wonder they always sell out.
