of laughs and a hint of mystery when he entertained them at greens last wednesday night i get volunteers from the au dience on the stage explained santini as he described his act then i put them through a number of stages to increase their imagination some people call it hypnosis but i dont really believe in that theyre just in a highly suggestible state when theyve reached that stage i take them on a journey of the mind he claims he can make suitable subjects believe theyre on a space shuttle to mars or hurtling down a mountain in a toboggan at 500 miles an hour the method i use to induce this state only works on certain peo ple even the psychologists dont know why some people are prone to it santini read all the books on clinic psychology i could find to figure out how the mind works then perfected his own act using the knowledge he had gained its been so successful now its a fulltime job i do an average of 20 shows a month ive been doing it for 12 years he travels all over ontario peforming at locations which range from army bases to community fairs it didnt take him long to whip up 11 willing volunteers on wednesday night by the time hed gone through the preliminary stages of inducing them to clench their fists tightly stand up then fall back into their chairs and go to sleep hed selected the three most likely lads whom he proceeded to talk through a mindboggling adventure those three gave it all they had going through the motions of crashing over potholes on a bus journey with an obnoxious im aginary companion staving off beat and cold in a tent on a moun tainside and finally careening down the mountain in their tobog gan and landing in a tangled heap on the floor the show left the audience in fine humor and the subjects cheerful but confused and
