The Power of One is an Australian television series, featuring hypnotist Peter Powers hypnotising members of the public and forcing them to perform amusing and often embarrassing acts.

Content[]

The hypnotism in the show usually aims for comedy rather than exhibiting the hypnotist's skill. Examples of the acts performed on the show include:

• hypnotising someone to think they are driving an expensive car, when in fact they are driving a cheap one, or a bumper car at a fair.
• exploiting a personal weakness, such as arachnophobia or shyness.
• sexually centered acts, such as convincing a man that each of the holes in a pool table is a woman that he has to satisfy.
• making a person do something embarrassing, such as achieving instant orgasm, in response to a pre-set trigger.

Broadcast[]

The show previously aired on The Comedy Channel on Australian subscription television service Foxtel.
