Peter Powers (UK): Hypnotist

Combining a unique blend of outrageous humour with a witty and mischievous style of delivery, Peter Powers is the world's funniest comedy hypnotist.

Peter started hypnotising people at the age of 12, despite the vehement opposition of his deeply religious parents. He has made 60 of his own television shows, broadcast in more than 20 different countries, and has made 29 shows for Australian television. He is the holder of two world records in the field of hypnosis; for the world's fastest hypnotic induction he hypnotized 12 people, individually, in one minute, and for the world's longest hypnotic sleep the subject lay sleeping, in full public view, for eight continuous days.

He is currently enjoying huge success with sell-out tours in the U.K and Europe, in which he demonstrates his incredible, but sometimes wayward, talent on unsuspecting audiences. His show can be described as wicked, naughty and mischievous, with some routines being more adult in nature, but it is all in strictly good fun.
